Dice Warren has always been the comic relief of the Righteous Outlaws. Always the first to make the others smile, and the last to take anything seriously. But, when tragedy struck and his best friend/sister found her happy ending, Dice was left feeling lost and a little alone. Until he meets Allison.
Allison Tyler just wanted to meet her brother. She had the courage all worked up, but lost her confidence, and somehow ended up as her nephew’s nanny. When she meets Dice, his personality is like a breath of fresh air, and she finds herself falling for him even though she thinks his line of work may be dangerous.
Can Dice find peace with Allison? Will Allison be able to tell her brother who she really is? Can these two lost souls get their happily ever after?
Savannah Rylan is a romance writer that spends most of her time writing and reading with her cat, Gris. When not penning the next great American novel, (HA), you can find her on the beach with a drink in her hand or at the gym testing out some strange new position. Yoga, obviously. She lives in Southern California with her husband and Gris, the true love of her life.
*sighs* I really love MC books. This one was really good. I loved Dice and Allisons story and the way it flowed. This book is in a series but I do believe each can be read as standalone since they are all about different couples. However, each couple is in this book and it may have some spoilers about them if you haven't read.
Dice is the loud guy. The jokester. The one everyone loves and counts on. He's not the president of the club. But the president is one of his closest friends and with his sister. Dice cracked me up with his humor and constant one liners. He's known to love the ladies but when he finds his one he's done with the others. He's pure alpha male. I loved this about him! He may be funny and constantly joking but this man has had a hell of a life. Not giving in to his darkness makes him so very strong. He's dependable and loyal to a fault.
Allison is a sweetie pie. She comes into Dices life with intentions to make her past meet jet future. But she didn't plan on falling for him. She's a fierce woman and has no clue about club life. And to be honest it's really not for her at all. Will she be able to handle it? The club business? The man she loves is in deep but will she be able to hang on for the ride?
This was a fast paced book. Lots of details lots of secrets lots of angst in some situations. I really liked it a lot and I want to know more about this club and it's members. There's a lot to learn! I know when this book ended I wanted more!
Did I love this book? Well yes, at the beginning I did. Towards the middle I did. By the end? I was left debating. I will get to that in a few, but all in all I will say the major things were in this book. It made me chuckle, it made me teary eyed and it made me angry (but not in the way you may think – more on that later. Please read the sidenote.).
If I was to say what this book was really about I would have to say it was less a Allison/Dice book, but more a Dice/Miles book. Thinking back on this book, this sub plot touched me more than the main love story attached to the main plot and overshadowed the main story in a huge way. I cheered, I growled, I yelled, I cried and my heart broke more so with this story than that of Allison/Dice. If you read this story for any other reason, read it for that of Dice/Miles. They deserve their own book in my opinion. I’d love to read of their misadventures and brotherhood. I fell in love with these two pranksters.
With that said this book had all the makings of a favorite. Allison was shy, but a free spirit, but suddenly caught up in a whirlwind not of her making and ends up falling for Dice. She’s not a pushover per say, but can seem a bit soft and overly subservient. It’s not annoying to me, but can get a bit old after so many times of “wanting to please him or take his mind of things”.
While I don’t like to give away spoilers, I can’t say that I fully agree with the resolution of the relationship in this book. One of the main plots was the fact, as stated in the description, is that Allison is Kade’s sister. This part of the story is maybe given two pages at best. We don’t get to see them finding common ground, getting to know each other, asking questions or really anything. The secret is told and then, quite frankly, moved on from. The reactions from Dice, Sienna and Kade are all over the top and uncalled for in this reviewers opinion.
Dice is at a turning point in his life, a fork in the road. Does he go left or right? We learn his inner most thoughts on the major changes in his life, the lightning fast things that he has had to adjust to that are making him change his views on his life, club and the future. Allison and the threat from the both the rival MC as well as Gordita’s army plays a factor in his debate on his place in life. This is where things get tricky, leaving me questioning on if I am being contrary because of my need for a solid format of a HEA and don’t like change or if it’s a pleasant change because it’s different. This I will have to leave to you to decide.
Well written? Yes Emotional? Yes HEA? Yes Hot love scenes? Yes Read it again? Doubtful
Because of not sticking to the main premise of the story, being a bit wishy washy with the development of the H/h relationship, the ending abruptly ending with no followup, but at the same time making up for it with Dice/Miles, I give this book 3.5 stars.
**SIDENOTE** I have not read the second book “Bulletproof” and I will tell you why. After reading several reviews, as I was curious why the rating was so low, I decided not to. Nothing makes me not like a book more than a ungrateful, bitchy heroine. After reading Warrant I wondered if they were being a bit harsh about Sienna, after all in that book she seemed rather nice. After this book? NOPE, never going to happen. The way Sienna treated Allison in this book when she found out she was sleeping with Dice and when she found out she was Kade’s sister, was enough to convince me that if this was on going theme I would hate her book. Even the glimpses that we see of her attitude with Kade in the kitchen were enough for me not to like her, but after her outburst when she found out about Allison and Dice? Hell no! I wanted to jump in the book and deliver a stomp down. So disrespectful for something that was completely none of her business and what she said was completely out of line. Not only did she embarrass them, she never apologized and then the next day acted like she never even said it. Ummmm what? We will just say finding out about Kade’s sister? Worse . I won’t read her book, because women like her in real life? Well I would have already had issues with.
Why r all the heroins svelte, sweat and beautiful and the hero’s fit good looking and “hot”? Why do they get turned on by a look or a touch. When I let my imagination loose I take the place of the heroine and I imagine the hero is turned on by my touch or words. That’s why I keep reading erotic romance novels and I get to feel.....
This was the best one yet in the series. Although I knew the Miles character was dead when he said goodbye to Dice, I didn't expect the story to make me so emotional. Well written. I truly felt it.
I liked that Dice wasn't with any clubwhores after meeting Allison. Allison should have told the truth to Kade right from the beginning. I had high hopes for sweet Miles.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Great book, Miles thru me (what a twist). UPS and downs thru out the book. Didnt think that Dice would leave the MC, but again with the twists and turns.
Dice and Allison are good for one another. I cried for Miles and the end I prayed Dice would change his mind. It killed me, but I'm glad he got his happily ever after.

If you’ve read the first two books then you know who Dice is, and if you’re like me you couldn’t wait to get to his book. He’s the best friend and brother to Sienna, the one who’s always there, and this time he’ll find that someone special who will give him a new perspective on life…and the club. Especially after he looses someone close to him.
Allison got in over her head from day one. All she wanted was to meet her half-brother, to know she had family somewhere in the world. What she didn’t expect was to suddenly be interviewed for a nanny position for her nephew and then get it. It’s hard to come forth with the truth when you start with a lie. But she’ll meet someone who makes it all worth while, someone she knew she should stay away from, but someone who draws her in at every turn. Dice.
He’ll bring out her little bit of recklessness and she’ll bring out his deepest desires.
“I’m not getting in that thing.”
“Why not?”
“First of all, it’s a chick mobile.”
“It is not. It’s better for the environment and a lot of guys drive Priuses.”
“Did you check to see if they still had their balls?”
As the third book in the Righteous Outlaws series I expected a little more development into the storyline with the rival clubs, but there wasn’t nearly enough there to satisfy my ever-growing curiosity. If anything the rift with the other clubs is just there to tie the books together and nothing more, but it would be nice to see more of it throughout the series.
I enjoyed the relationship between Dice and Allison. They had a magnetism that was fun to watch develop. The downside was the ending; it felt rushed. For Allison being Kade’s sister, there isn’t much to the story except a vague sort of overview. The ending was more like a here’s what happened and this is how everyone reacted, but none of it went into much detail.
My Favorite Laughable Moment: I loved the story about how Dice got his name. I loved even more when Allison slips out his real name in front of the other club members.

Action paced, fast paced, MC romance this was actually a very highly enjoyable novel. This story has Many different twist and turns that just took me on a hell of a ride. This story had a couple of really good heart pounding moments that keep my face planted right in my kindle unable to look away. There was so much more I wanted from this book but what I got out of it I loved. The characters were likable and in some ways relatable. I liked how the author portrayed the brotherhood and the hurt that was faced all around when the betrayal was revealed. Dice and Allison’s story was definitely one of the few MC stories I have loved lately they weren’t the perfect couple but they went through and prevailed over everything that was going on. While I enjoyed the story I felt that there could have been so much more to their story than the way it ended. I’m hoping that even though they have a HEA I hope we see more of them because their relationship gave a fresher view to the MC lifestyle and how sometimes some doors need to be closed to move on. If I could say anything about this book I have to say I enjoyed it and can’t wait for the next book to see what happened in the next book and see if this ending effected the next story line. MS. Rylan gave an excellent book and I can’t wait for book four to see what else she has in store for the Righteous Outlaws .
great series, read all four books back to back. loved the characters. the stories were cohesive and flowed well with plenty of action, violence, some sweet romance and some way hot sex! well worth the read.
Dice. Third in the series, but a standalone. This is my first book by this author. I do think reading the first two books would add depth to this reading experience.
It's an MC book, it won't be a shiny perfect story, but this one is categorically imperfect....like life. I won't recap the story, the blurb already does a great job of that.
There is a lot going on in this book. The hurt, the hardship, the betrayal, the love, the friendship, the family, the healing, it was all heart-breaking and heart-pounding.
The steamy moments between Allison and Dice were hot. I laughed when she referred to her daydreams about them together as her own personal porno.
While I got my HEA, I expected more because this does not end the way other MC books tend to end. And, I don't really feel the rift with the other club, the rivalry, was fully explored. Maybe that's on purpose and for the next book? No spoilers but Dice and Allison riding off into the sunset after all the twists and turns and no epilogue? Gah!
The writing was good, the story evolved, never boring. Seriously, my only gripe, I wanted more, especially at the end.
Okay I have to say this is a series that I am loving every moment and intrigued about the rival gang intruding in their lives. We previously caught a glimpse of Dice and have to say my heart ached for him in this book. Happiness and love is not something he has seen in his life and everything well stopped for him when Nick died. The loss of this gentle President of the club is still present and we see a side of the biker gang we didn`t see before acceptance. This is something they have no idea how to come to terms and Dice is taking it hard. The chemistry he feels for Allison is something he never thought a man like him was capable of having. Savannah Rylan just pulled me in Dice`s story and loved that she created such a beautiful, gentle and perfect woman for Dice in Allison. These two were perfect for each other the beautiful woman bringing light into a man who has only known darkness and hate in his life. Loved it and wander what will happen to this club now in the next one in the book.
So I didn't find notice this book was part of a series until I had already started it. To make matters worse, it is the third book of the series! OMG, naturally after I finished the book I looked up the first two and noticed it was one of the series that I've wanted to read for awhile! But I can never go back now that I have had a taste of Savannah Rylan's work.
This book had me laughing and crying, the author words enthralled me so much this book it felt like the characters were my friends. I was going through their feelings, my heart aching right along with them. If I get the chance, I am totally reading more of this series.
One thing I was not expecting was the ending, I have never read a MC that ended like that. (I would totally tell you what happened but then I'd be giving out secrets) Just keep in mind this MC, is not your classic biker romance. It will keep you guessing and leave you speechless at the end.
****I received this book in exchange for an honest review****
I really liked this book. I love how close everyone and how accepting they were. Yes people screwed up but they also forgave them. Dice and Allison are my favorite couple. They have so many sweet moments, along with smokin hot sex scenes. These two couldn't get enough of each other. Things weren't always easy for them and there was a moment that tears came down. I couldn't help it, these guys are a family and I got way to into the story. If you love MC books, then this is one you have to pick up! I haven't read the first two books yet but unless you want to know about the characters, you don't need to. This book was a great read!
Loved this book!!! We get to know Dice in the previous books and he's such a neat character, so glad he got his own book. Allison is new to town and comes in with a pretty big secret. She ends up a nanny to Kade and Sienna's little boy and when Dice meets her he's hooked. Dice and Allison are really a sweet couple and their story was an enjoyable read. There are some sad moments and an ending that was different from most of the MC books I've read before.
This is a terrific series and Savannah Rylan is definitely one of my new favorite authors.
Wow! I loved Dice and Allison and their story. This is action paced, fast paced, MC romance this was actually a very highly enjoyable novel. This author is new to me. I couldn't stop reading until I finished it. They was perfect for each other because they were different in all ways. I truly enjoyed this book. I laughed, I cried and I definitely rooted for Dice. I can't wait to read another awesome story from Savannah Rylan. Keep up the awesome work. If you love reading about MC's bad boys. Then this is a must read!!! Definitely an one-click buy!
I enjoyed this story even though I did not read the two previous books in the series. I quickly fell into the MC life and felt like a part of their family. Allison looses her mother but discovers she has a brother. In her search to know him she finds herself with a whole family and a part of their lives. I liked all of the characters, the story line was well written with just enough hot sex and motorcycles.

Would have put a higher review because I really like the writing style and most of the story line, but can't stand Sienna, and for some reason I didn't feel there was enough connection between Allison & Dice. Most of the story really had to do with everything and everyone but their relationship. Almost seemed like their romance was an after thought.
loved this story. Dice and Allison are awesome. Dice is dealing with a great loss and can't really seem to move on and Alison is just the one to help him. this is a tear causing, action packed , fast paced mc romance. I loved it.
When I first started reading this book I never expected it to end this way. This was my favorite yet. From everyone's buried secrets to the steamy sex scenes to the tragedy I was rendered speechless.
5 stars I cried so hard I had to stop reading to get myself under control.what a good book. I really didn't like how it ended but, I'm hoping the next book in the series will be what I hope for.
This is Dice's story. The happy go lucky Joker has come to realise that something is missing from his life. He is fed up with his usual ways and since the club is changing he decides a change is for him also.
