Brawn

by Leah Wilde

I got her pregnant. Now, I’ll pay the price.

She looked too delicious to pass up. I wanted a taste.
So I took it.
I never thought I’d see her again.

But when my worst enemy shows up on my doorstep four months later,
It’s only the first of many unwelcome surprises.
Turns out he’s her father…
…and she’s pregnant.

I’ve got no choice; I have to do what he wants, or there will be war.
Even though his proposal is flat out insane.
Marry the girl? No thanks.
But he’s got me by the throat.

I didn’t expect what would happen next.
That the little blond girl with the gray eyes would become my angel.
That her moans would be music to my ears.
That, before long, she’d mean everything to me.

I have to keep her safe, amidst a brewing storm of violence that threatens to wreck my world.
But when I discover who’s responsible for the murders, protecting her gets that much harder.

If I’m learning anything, it’s this:
Betrayal always comes from those you love.

Brawn

Boy meets girl, girl gets pregnant, they are forced to marry, but there is bad blood between her father and new husband, and it results in a very weird and complicated ending. This book, I wouldn't recommend. It has a lot of things that just don't make sense. The book feels rushed and improvised, with things happening without sense or explanation.

Her father controls her every move, and she needs to rebel a little, so she goes to a party, where she meets a guy and ends up having sex with him. His father gets mad because she went to a party and limits her moves even more, but when he finds out she is pregnant, he goes and force the guy to marry her, the guys who is the leader of a rival MC. He marries her, but doesn't want a relationship with her because he thinks it would be safer for her. Then, when they finally decide to give their marriage a chance, her father tells her that her new husband killed her mother, but in reality it was he who killed her and a friend of her husband, because he thought she was cheating on him, but she was only trying to run from an abusive relationship.

Things that really don't make sense:

- For three years the Russians and Lethal Darkness had been looking for the one who killed their friend and Paris' mother, but they can't find anything, then suddenly, they have access to key information, and later to a video that shows how Tristan killed her wife and the guy from the Lethal Darkness, just when he was planning on killing Micah.

- For a leader of an MC he made some stupid decisions. He was supposed to be a feared leader, but acted like a scared teenager when Paris' father asked him to marry her, and then when he caught him and forced him to marry his daughter.

- I couldn't understand how ignoring and mistreating Paris was protecting her. I get it, if he didn't want to bring someone into his dangerous life, but she was already there, she was already pregnant, why make things harder for her? What was he gaining from keeping her at arm's length?

This is the first book I've read by Leah Wilde and I really enjoyed the story but I did feel it was a little rushed. The book actually ended at 51% on my Kindle and after that there is another book by her called Bones (which I did want to read so I'm glad I didn't already buy it). Paris is 18 years old, in college, and lives with her Dad, who is the President of the Knives of Fury MC. Her Mother was brutally murdered three years ago and the killer was never caught. Her Dad is way overprotective, he won't even let her go on dates or live outside his house. She has a best friend named Katy who is pretty much the only person she socializes with. Micah Youngblood is President of the Lethal Darkness MC who are enemies with the Knives of Fury MC. Three years ago, Anton, a good friend of Micah's and also a club member was murdered along with Paris' Mom. Micah promised Anton's widow that he would find the killer and justice would be delivered. Paris is sick of her Dad sheltering her so when Katy begs her to attend a party at the Lethal Darkness clubhouse she agrees. When Micah sees the beautiful, innocent young woman with captivating grey eyes he knows he has to have her in his bed as soon as possible. Like I said I felt the story was rushed especially the big climax at the end. Something else that isn't a big deal but it did annoy was that she's supposed to be so innocent and forbidden to date yet she wasn't a virgin ? Also this is stupid I guess but there was no mention of her ever going to a doctor or receiving any kind of prenatal treatment.

This book was okay. Paris is a woman who is overly controlled by her Dad. He doesn't allow her to date, or stay out late. She must live with him and only talk to her one girlfriend. So when her friend talks her into going to a party, she winds up not only staying out late, but sleeping in after a night of hot sex.

Her Dad finds out, puts her on restriction after slapping her around. She winds up pregnant and afraid. Her worst fears come true. Her Dad walks in after hearing her throw up and see's her pregnancy test. He forces her to get married. Things go from bad to worse.

They are able to work things out in the end, but had to endure a lot heartache to get there.

I was hoping for a better MC book, this one failed in that category. IMO.

Great concept for a story but horrible implementation and development. I didn't know if this was a YA or a fairytale. Big scary biker?....not. Innocent, sheltered girl? ....not. Seriously - she's so innocent and lives such a protected life but has sex like a pro with new explanation. Of course she gets pregnant. I could buy it if it was because of a broken condom, but no protection? not even a mention by either parties...the innocent one and the man-slut? I had to stop reading when he threw her into the 'pond' and then jumped in after her playing around...what are they, 5? Big Bad as a leader of men?...not. ugh.

A great read by this author.

I really enjoyed reading Micah and Paris's story. Paris was tired of being a prisoner in her father's house so one night she snuck out with a friend to a biker party where she met Micah. Once he saw her he knew he wanted her.
After she is forced to marry Micah, she finds out an ugly truth about her father and Micah is there to pick up the pieces. I highly recommend this book.
