This had me a little confused at first because while so many characters seemed familiar I couldn't place where I've read about them before. Then I remembered that this first book of the Haven MC is the other side of the coin, so to speak. Sam and Carly from the Black Hawk MC series came from Haven, this book is about Sam's father MC...then it started to make sense...lol.
So Moose/Linc and Katie's story was fairly typical, friends since they were kids, they fell in love while in their teenage years, he was her first and then he left so she could live her life, only to come back years later and claim her as his and she happily follows after talking mad shit about how she will never forgive him for leaving her....sighs...women can be so fickle while men can be just...well men. In any case it's very unnerving and frustrating how in these situations the men have no problem moving on and fucking anything in sight but the women don't, can't or just won't because they're too hung up on their pasts. It's definitely okay for a woman to have an active sex life, just like a man, even after a hard break up, but to compare or just act like a nun just because your man left..ridiculous. So you get him back after he's slept his way through the alphabet and he gets you back nice and pristine...nice. For the record having an active sex life does not make you a slut nor a whore, it makes you human. On a side note, the sex between them was hot so I can't be that mad and they were cute together, if not, predictable.
I'm still trying to figure out exactly who these Haven men are because let's face it, they aren't regular bikers, but it's not quite clear what they are. Obviously they go on super secret missions, is it for the government?
My favorite characters were Shock and Freak...surprisingly enough. Two of the oldest members but so very intriguing..loved them!!! Charlie wasn't so bad neither, a female bounty hunter who can ride a bike and kick ass just as well, if not better, than a man. Got to respect that. She's honest and a straight up shooter but not in an annoying way, its in a more take me as I am type of way, she's awesome. Obviously Hawk is going to claim her and I truly hope she doesn't turn into a simpering female that depends on him to save her, because that would be very disappointing. She was portrayed as tough, funny and outgoing in this book, so when her time comes I would like to see her with those same characteristics, not less.
Overall this was a fast paced read, with interesting, colorful and more than a handful of characters, which may get confusing at times, but still an enjoyable read. It did have many grammatical errors and sentences that just didn't make sense and that made some parts a tad bit difficult to understand.
Still..looking forward to the next one...
