"I'm making you mine tonight, and I don't care if I knock you up." My sister has gone missing. Her last words still ring in my head. "Run, Cherie. Run." I've run out of money, and I've run out of options to find her when I stop in a dingy motel. That's where Axel finds me, smells my scent like a predator and goes in for the kill. It takes me a moment to realize who he is... Axel Lake. Murderer. Outlaw. Criminal. Yet I can't seem to walk away - or maybe he won't let me. I can deny it all I want, but he awakens something in my body. Something raw and primal. And when he finally makes me his, I know he's not going to stop until I belong to him completely...
Full-length romantic suspense novel. No cliffhanger, no cheating and a happy ending.

This was the first book I have read by Marci Fawn and I have to say she rocked it!!! I can't even begin to tell the feelings I encountered while reading this book. I cried, I laughed, I held my breath, I wanted to hire a killer for some people and I fell in love with Axel and Cherie. Having those feelings while reading a book is a sign of a good author/writer. I also like how my attention was grabbed from the first of the book and held till the end. I just did not want to quit reading it. I know there won't be a sequel to Axel and Cherie, but if one came out I sure would buy it. I think the author did an amazing job in writing the characters and distinquishing between the 2 main characters of the story and the minor characters that played a major part in the story. Plus the hunk on the cover helped in picturing Axel. :) AWESOME BOOK!!! Definitely recommend this book.
Cherie is looking for her older sister Bridgette. Cherie had not seen her since the night her sister told her take the money she had hid and RUN! Cherie is in a bar with no money for a room, not money for gas to her car, and still wants to find her sister. She is gazing out a window in the bar when a stranger walks up to her and starts talking to to her. Little did Cherie know was that this handsome and well built man would turn her world up side down. While Cherie is on the run with Axel she finds herself in situations she never dreamed of being in. Can she survive this?

He showers and decides to take what money he has left and go to bar across the street for a drink. He finds a blond hair, blue eyed beauty that struck something in him. Then the next thing he knows she is on the run with him and he is helping her.

Axel is on the run for a crime he didn't do when he stops in this bar and sees a woman sitting in a booth. He knows this is the woman he wants without even seeing her face. Cherie has been sitting in the bar wondering how she was going to find her sister when she used the last of the money she had just to get there. Just as she starts to fall asleep sitting there she hears a man voice startled she looks up. She both attracted and a little scared of the man standing beside her booth. Axel is intrigue by this young woman and immediately tries to convince her to spend some time with him.
Axel can see that she is young so in the midst of flirting with her he asks her how old she is making sure she's legal. Not knowing what to make of Axel she lets him follow her to her car just as they reach it a cop car pulls up in front of the bar. Pulling her into an alley Axel watches the cops as Cherie starts to wonder what kind of trouble is he in. After telling her his name he kisses her to keep her from calling out to the police. When he stops kissing her Axel takes her hand and pulls her towards his bike explaining to her that he is helping her since she doesn't have a place to stay. Once back at her place he tries to explain he situation more but things end up leading to them sleeping together.
Axel agrees to help Cherie track down her sister after she tells him her story and how things ended between her sister and her. When they locate her sister things go from bad to worse for Axel when he realizes the crime he is accused of doing is mixed up in her sister's problems. Throw in a bad strip club owner and you reach a point of no return. I loved this book once I started reading it I couldn't put it down until I was done. If you haven't had a chance to read this one I highly recommend that you do you won't regret it.
Ok so despite some of its flaws, I actually really enjoyed Wanted! So, I was a but apprehensive about Outlaw's Baby because I wasn't sure how the rewrite would love up to its predecessor. But, man Outlaw's Baby was WOW!! The rewritten story was like the perfect final draft to Wanted's first draft. Outlaw's Baby was the story of wanted outlaw Axel Lake. While hiding out from the cops, media and everyone in between, he meets the beautifully stunning Cherie. One night was all it took for Axel to realize Cherie was the thing he's been missing, even if it couldn't have happened at a worse time. Cherie has her own problems to deal with, like finding her missing sister. Together, her and Axel team up to help solve each other's problem. Just when you thought everything would work out when she finds her sister that's when sh*t truly hits the fan! Outlaw's Baby created connections between the characters that just made for a better story! I mean the new twists in the story was crazy good and did wonders for the storyline! But, most importantly there was a real epilogue in place of the cliffhanger one that drove me crazy. Axel and Cherie's story was just perfection thanks to this rewrite, so if you enjoyed Wanted, READ this, if you didn't read Wanted, READ this! I received an arc in exchange for an honest review.

This was the story of Axel & Cherie. Axel was running from the cops and met Cherie in a dive bar. He wanted her immediately even though he could tell she was young and naive. What happened after was their story filled with steam and love. Axel was a good guy caught up in a bad situation and Cherie was looking for the sister she had to leave following a messed up incident involving her sister's ex.
After a sexy encounter Axel has to leave Cherie without saying goodbye in order to protect her. What he doesn't know is that she's pregnant. So she lives the next couple years raising their daughter and missing Axel and nursing a broken heart. And Axel has to live the next couple years working for the creep who "helped" them out of his bad situation. When Axel and Cherie have their reunion it's bittersweet. But have no fear, they get their HEA in a sweet epilogue.
I liked both Axel and Cherie. Axel was sexy, sweet, but scarred. Cherie was also sweet, and a perfect match for Axel. The writing was great and the secondary characters, Bridgette (Cherie's sister) and Lucas, her boyfriend, are awesome. Loved that the villain gets what he deserves in a very satisfying scene.
If you like stories with sexy, but sweet bad boys and the women who love them, then this is the story for you.
I have to start off my review bu saying that even though i only gave this book 3 stars i still enjoyed it and read it in one sitting.
We meet Axel whose whole life has resolved drinking, drugs, meaningless sex, fighting and doing whatever it takes to survive in this dog eat dog world.
That is until the day that he's framed for a murder that he didn't commit. Axel ends up on the run and with money running out fast his friend suggests a cheap motel that he would be safe in. Axel is not good at being stuck inside a room so heads to a sleazy bar and unbeknown to him his life is going to get turned upside down.
We meet 18 year old Cherie who is looking for her sister after she disappeared. Cherie's sister's ex boyfriend was very abusive to her and then he touched Cherie in a nasty way. Like Axel with money running out she finds herself in the same bar that Axel has decided to have a drink in. Cherie ends up falling asleep and wakes up to a hard faced man looking down at her. She doesn't realise that the hard face man looking down at her will change her life forever.
Lusty romance but too many frustrating coincidences
This first-time author has a lot of promise and can write some lusty, dirty-talking sex scenes. However, the story line relies on too many unrealistic coincidences-even for a romance.
The first third of the book is the most interesting. The story is at its best when Axel and Cherie are on the run and in each other’s arms. I would prefer more with them running from the law, forced into close quarters with all of that sexual tension and heat boiling over.
The problems pile up when they stop running. Too many major plot points hinge on seemingly chance events. It’s frustrating. The world isn’t that small.
With some reworking, the book can easily shine, and I look forward to more from Marci Fawn. I was given a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
A man who is on the run from the law, a woman who's looking for her missing sister and a past that will place both of them in danger. Axel is on the run for something he didn't do. Yeah he may of beat him up a little but murder him no. So with no one to help him he runs, hoping to out run them. But the past has ways to catch up when you least expect it to. Even if it's in the form of a sexy woman. Cheri is after one thing only to find her sister. Now if only she wouldn't be having problems getting there and finding out any information. But when she meets the handsome but rugged Axel, things start to get very interesting. Especially since the cops are after him. Will she be able to find her sister and keep Axel safe too?
This is the first I have read from Marci Fawn and have to say I want more of her outlaws. Axel is not your usual rebel for here is a guy who still has feelings and wants more than just a life on the run. He wants a normal life and a woman to love him. Cherie at first seemed kind of skittish but once you see what she is going through you can see how right she is for Axel. The whole bad boy attraction she feels for Axel scares her but man the passion between them is hot. Have to say this is one book that you will not disappointed and cannot wait for more from Marci Fawn.
Axel is a wanted for a crime he didn't commit and is trying to hide out. Cherie is trying to find her sister and ends up at the same bar as Axel. The second her sees Cherie he knows he wants her, but he has to get Ger to understand he isn't what they claim. Setting out to help her find her sister brings the truth of what really happened to end him up in trouble. Enter Ryder, the man who seems to be the answer to the problem, but he may be more devious than that. This is not a simple happy ever after, these two will have to work to get there.

This is what I was expecting from this book, insta love, (which I love) possessive alpha, hot sex and always a little suspense, well I did get that and holy heck so much more. So Axel and Cherie meet....................... that's all I am going to give, you will have to read the book yourself and find out, but let me tell you, there were so many WTF moments, had my heart pumping, it was great.
I know that this is only a short review, but I don't want to ruin it for anyone. So would I recommend Outlaw's Baby to my friends , I sure would, it was fantastic. Reviewed for HeadTripping Books Carolyn
I got this in exchange for an honest review, I am somewhat familiar with this author but I enjoyed this one a lot I liked the plot and story line the flow of events was great between each character and chapter I liked the fact that it had some mystery suspense and action along with romance I was surprised and intrigued a lot which kept me reading this till the end the main couple in this one face up a lot of things before the wave calms down which I liked I would recommend this to everyone very charming work
Ok, how in the hell did this book get such great reviews! I only made it half way through and just couldn't waste any more of my time reading it. I've read a lot of books and this one actually made me mad. The writing is just plain terrible. I couldn't get into it at all. I tried and tried to give it a chance but I couldn't do it. I can't say which parts I hated because it'll be the whole first half of the book. Maybe the end half is better but I wasn't going to risk it. Sorry for the bad review but I had to be honest.
Axel the fugitive and Cheri the lost one looking for her sister and they happen to run into each other in a hole in the wall bar. He means he wants and is going to have her. Somehow she ends up with him on the run and him helping look for her sister. They find her all right and run just so happens run into the real killer Axel is accused of committing. They also run into more trouble than they bargain for that pulls them apart. For two years they are both miserable until everything..........all of the truth comes crashing down. Boy is Axel in for a big surprise.
Received this book to give an honest review Cheri is looking for her sister how has been missing for a few months. Cheri stop at a round down bar because she was out of money that is where she met Axel who is on the run for killing someone. They go out side together because Axel was walking her to her car when he sees a couple of cops this is were the story really starts Will Axel get caught Will Axel and Cherie get a chance to have a relationship? This is a fast read so grab a coffee and chill out for a few hours
The typical bad boy meets good girl insta-crush. Axel is your typical tatted and scarred man wanted for Murder. Cherise is looking for her sister, down in her luck and broke. A chance encounter in a bar leads to running from the law, steamy sex, insta-love with a sordid story. Murder, an illegal fighting ring, baby daddy, strippers and revenge. I enjoyed the story and the slimy guy trying to keep tabs on Axel. I'd recommend to a friend.
I can honestly say I don't like fighting rings. But this is about 5th one I very read. It takes you on a wild ride. The high emotions of both Axel and Cherie are amazing. They are both broken when they meet. Sparks fly and a bundle of joy is made from that reunion. But they world crushes a around them and Alex leaves, but come back to make her and the baby his for once in all cage fight. I was given this story for a honest review.
I really tried to get into this one but it was boring. The H sees the h and wants to sleep with her but the h has her own problems. Even though the H is on the run, he decides to help the h find her sister. This made no sense, especially when he is recognized a few times by other people. The story was a huge issue for me. It was hard to believe these characters were all connected. Lastly, I thought this would be a hot story but it was barely lukewarm.
This book had me from the first page. I was sucked in and couldn't stop myself!!! Axel is just perfection, although he did put me through some emotional grief for a bit, he did redeem himself (oh did he ever❤️❤️) This book was amazing, emotional and smoking HOT!!! Oh and if you like plot twists your going to love this book!! If I could only give it 100 stars. Do not miss this one!!
This is an amazing story. It is full of drama and suspense. Cheri and Axel are opposites in personalities but make the perfect couple. Life throws them some real curve balls, but in the end they find their way back to each other. I loved this story, but the ending was perfect. I hope this means that we will be reading more about Axel and Cheri.
I received this book in an exchange for an honest review. This book was rewritten I did read the original story which was by Alyssa Alpha Wanted Dead or Alive. Honestly I enjoyed this rewrite better than the original I felt all my questions were answered this time around and the story made more sense to me. I do recommend this book.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I didnt know that Outlaws Baby was a re- write and rename of Alyssa Alpha's " Wanted " - Dead or Alive, I absolutely fell in love with the heart break, betrayal, lust, love, illegal cage fighting and blackmail. And then there is the HEA that is really good.
Axel was a good guy caught up in a bad situation. Axel was running from the cops and met Cherie in a dive bar. After a sexy encounter Axel has to leave Cherie. Cherie ends up pregnant after that encounter. I loved the story line and plot. This book has great surprises in it. It keeped me reading page after page.
