Formatting was awful. I would have liked it better if every other thought wasn't about how fat she was or she was just curvy. That got old real quick.

I did enjoy this story and Alexx was able to make me believe that Jax was in love with Zoe in the end, but it was definitely a hard sell to believe that Hunter ever loved her.

****
After a bottle of whiskey and a handful of beers, Hunter had to piss like a racehorse and one look at the long-ass line for the can caused him to head outside to take a leak.
Even drunk his mind was stubbornly set on Zoe. Dimas was out fucking one of his whores, no doubt, having left the bar some time ago, and Hunter was about to crash himself when a small, white hand crept around his front to hold his cock while he pissed.
Startled, he half-turned and saw a petite redhead smiling up at him, her tight black dress so short he could practically count her pubs and he realized this chick must be the girl Dimas was talking about earlier.
"Need help with that?" she asked, smiling as she gave his cock a little shake. Weirdly aroused, he thought with a wry smirk as he watched her slender fingers curl around his shaft. "I heard you might like a little company tonight."
"Yeah? I might. What's your name?"
"Roxy," she answered, withdrawing her hand so he could tuck his cock away and zip his pants. He turned and she pressed herself against him.
Her tits were small but pert, a mouthful at the least, nothing like the abundant sweetness of Zoe's tits but he had to stop comparing every woman to Zoe.
What the fuck was wrong with him? He was losing his damn mind.
All this crap with the shipment and conspiracy of a possible rate in their midst was driving his ape-shit crazy.
"I'm down for a good time if you are," he said, though the words tasted hollow.
He must've drank too much if he was forcing himself to accept an invitation for a good time with a hot woman.
He held out his hand and she eagerly slipped her hand into his, allowing him to lead her behind the bar where his trailer was...
****

Needless to say, Hunter then proceeded to not only get a blow job from this woman, but he also fucked her. (He didn't want to come in her mouth - he wanted her pussy. Jerking her dress up over her hips, he unceremoniously bent her over the short kitchen counter.) All the while he was comparing the woman to Zoe (not pretending it was Zoe, just comparing the differences). When the act was done he had no remorse whatsoever. How am I supposed to believe he ever loved Zoe. Hell, Zoe, never finds out about it him having sex with a whore and Hunter never talks to Jax about it, so I am unsure why it was a chapter in the book. It was this chapter of the book, however, that totally shot down my original thought that this was a good book.

Gah! Boo!!!!

Source: eARC for Honest Review from Author and Literati Author Services

So I totally wanted to love this book as it had huge potential but Nope didn't happen for me. We start this book with BAM !! A threesome kind of out of nowhere with no lead up to any real character development which left it quite random. And I'm all for sexy time but come one we are really going to have a threesome bareback in the first few pages with NO discussion what so ever about STD's or the pill. Come on!

"Honey, You were made for two men. That ain't no lie. You took both cocks like a pro."

This book was trying to be bad ass but didn't quite cut it, maybe it was because it was a novella so didn't have the length of development but really it was random sex threesome which was supposed to be love at first sight that was so powerful it changed all of them. For Hunter and Jax they softened and with Zoe being super strong and kick ass all of a sudden. Nope didn't buy it what so ever.

Gah! I hate it when a book leaves a negative reaction with me. This is the first book I have ever read from Alexx so I don't know if it was this book that didn't do it for me or her writing. I would have to read more from Alexx to really give an opinion with that. This book had so much potential but was too quick and really unbelievable with all aspects of it from the love at first site to their MC world and everything in between.

Zoe is a reporter who is given a lot of "fluff pieces", and really wants to be taken more seriously as a journalist. She knows that there is something odd about a recent murder and decides to try and go undercover to find out more information. After she encounters the two heads of the MC she would like more information from, they quickly realize that she isn't who she says she is. Her cover is quickly blown, but not before Jax and Hunter show her how attracted they are to her. Despite everyone warning her to stop asking questions for her own safety, she decides to continue with the story and finds herself in a whole lot of trouble.

This was a pretty quick read, but the characters are likable. I realized pretty quickly who the bad guy was, but the story was still exciting. Zoe is easy to relate to as she was insecure about her appearance, and hadn't fully considered her own worth. It was nice to see Zoe getting to express her sexuality and have experiences with men who appreciated her as a sexual being and gave her a whole lot of pleasure. Jax and Hunter are interesting, and although we don't get a ton of character development in this story, we do get to see both of them struggle and change. There are some elements of this story that are pretty unrealistic, however, the fantasy is nice to consider.

This was more of a sex romp then an MC book with a little bit "and I mean a little bit" of biker business thrown in.. We have two leaders of the MC Jax and Hunter. Two alpha badass bikers. Then we meet Zoe a reporter that always gets the crap stories and decides she's going to chase a story no one else is going after about a killing having to do with rival biker clubs. She is a big girl with curves and people are always calling her fat. She hasn't had but one experience with her ex boyfriend.

Well that was certainly different & yes I really enjoyed it. It's a short read but I found it to be a great complete story.

This is a biker read with the delicious Jax and Hunter. What happens when a sweet delightful girl called Zoe finds herself in front of the two delicious bad boys Jax and Hunter?? This is their hot sexy story. The sex scenes were steamy.

Great story. Definitely going to see what other books this author has written.

This book was soso. It was one of those that made you think it was so over the top. Silly even.

Starts with an over weight girl (she keeps saying it that way) wants to get better story's to write for the newspaper she works for. She has a topic that she wants to look into. Got to find a way in....does it by pretending she is someone she is not. Ends up with the top two people at a local MC...

After they hook up a few times the guys start thinking she is too good for them and try to let her go. Then things really go over the top again .

Might go ahead and read the next book in the series....need a good laugh

Some stories you read for the heartfelt emotions and to be changed by the words on the page and some stories you read for pure enjoyment. This book falls firmly in the latter category as it's a decadently delightful read with two sexy and brooding heroes and a heroine who's funny and endearing but not as smart as she thinks she is. With numerous erotic encounters between the three of them this story starts off HOT and never lets up. Interspersed with these scorching scenes is a mystery that unfortunately is secondary to the erotic encounters with the whodunit easy to surmise and quickly concluded in an ending that's very rushed.

Zoe is a bigger-sized girl who's had very little experience with sex who gets in over her head when confronting two MC leaders about recent killings. She's tired of writing fluff pieces and thinks this story could be her big break but getting information from Jax and Hunter is impossible as they want to keep her safe. Getting involved with them sexually though is easy and though she knows they're truly bad boys she can't help but be drawn to them. They say everything she wants to hear and make her feel like a woman. Through their intense sexual encounters she feels empowered, a vocal and strong-willed woman instead of the meek little mouse scared of standing up for herself. Zoe can be funny but also silly when walking right into the middle of danger and doing this left me frustrated by her.

Jax and Hunter are tired of the same kind of women surrounding the Club, those who are hardened and emaciated from drugs. Meeting Zoe is like a breath of fresh air. They're drawn to her goodness and sunshine and enjoy her voluptuous body that allows them to let loose. While they admire her strong-will they warn her off digging into Club matters but as she digs deeper she drags all of them further into danger. Though Zoe frustrates them they'll still do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Jax and Hunter are sexually charming bad boys who ooze sex appeal and their commanding presence is immensely appealing. Though their actions throughout the story are stereotypical I still found myself drooling over them and enthralled by their intense sexual antics.

This is a fun story that you just enjoy for its decadent delights. With numerous scorching sexual interludes you can't help but be drawn to this erotic threesome. Fans of erotica will find this the perfect read while others will find a few faults but still be caught up in the non-stop steamy interludes, funny heroine, and drool-worthy heroes!

***arc supplied through Fiona's Book Reviews blog in return for my honest opinion ***

"Honey, you were made for two men. That ain't no lie. You took both cocks like a pro."



Well, that's praise for you.


When I saw that Kings of Asphalt was a MC story featuring two hot, alpha, ripped, badass bikers who prefer to share their woman, I was all over it. I mean, really, what's not to love about that?


And if that wasn't enough, do said hot, alpha, ripped badass bikers prefer their woman (note: singular) to be slim, taut and lithe? Nope, they do not, they prefer their woman to have a little meat on her bones:


"So...how do I go about finding me a dirty, sexy biker who has a thing for curvy women?"



Yes, quite.


Zoe, our curvy hero is a features reporter for the local paper. Bored of writing gardening tips and home decorating advice, she's eager to prove her worth writing hard news. Naively, she hopes going undercover to reveal the murky depths of an ongoing spat between two rival MC's might just impress her clueless editor that she's the gal for the job.


Posing as a prostitute (like you do), Zoe is immediately attracted to Jax and Hunter, our hot, alpha, ripped...etc etc bikers. They really like the look of her too; Within a couple of minutes she's getting down and dirty with both of them. And I mean down and dirty...yikes the menage scene in this was long, hot and sizzling.


In spite of repeated warnings, Zoe continues to dig into what's really going on between the two gangs, putting herself, Jax, Hunter and Zoe in grave danger.


The sex scenes in this were pretty good, but the suspense plot didn't really work for me. There were not many other characters in this story at all, so the whodunnit aspect fell a little flat because, well, there were so few suspects. I would have preferred to read more about the attraction between the characters - most of their time together was spent making bumping and grinding and while I don't mind that at all, I like it better when there's chemistry in and outside of the bowchicka wow wow and I didn't really get that chemistry here.


This was a fairly short story and a quick read taking you straight into the (ahem) action, so if a naughty and hot menage read is what you're looking for, this should fit the bill.

Wow!! This book starts off with a bang!!! (lol)


This book starts off with a young reporter Zoe. who has a nose for a story, but she has been stuck in the same dead end job with a boss that loves to crack fat jokes. Zoe decides to take the news in her own hands and go undercover in the most wanted biker gang, The Kings. When Zoe is found outside of the biker bar they think she is a hooker sent from there friend Dimas, who always supplies the guys with their women. What happens next will change Zoe life forever, who know that one night with the kings could get you killed!!!

when Hunter and Jax sees this amazing sexy curvy women walk into there office, they know with out a doubt that she is not Dimas girl. Being the head of Kings has its perks, they want to know what this women is doing in their home and find out what game she its trying play, its always risk to play games with the kings. what Hunter and Jax gets is amazing surprise that will change THEM!


This book is amazing!! it had hot sexy bikers that loved big curvy girls you cant asking for anything better then that! my only complaint in the whole book was the end it fell so flat. i was sad that its just seemed rushed , and i could have used a bit more bedroom scenes with the 3 of them. Over all this book Rocked and i will be happy to read more from this author.

I would rate this book 5 out 5 fangs.

For a biker menage, I was hoping for more.

Zoe. Where should I start? She's intensely naive. She's an "almost" virgin, yet she walks into a biker bar looking like sex on a stick. She didn't do her homework properly and really gets herself into a mess. Well, it's a mess that just keeps on going because she just. Won't. Stop. She makes reckless and amateurish mistakes, things that could really get her killed, but she's so intent on getting a story to make herself shine that she's overlooking the big picture. Not to mention the STD's that she probably picked up having unprotected sex with Jax and Hunter. And that she LET them!

Jax and Hunter. For some supposedly big, bad biker dudes, they're creampuffs. They ignore all the warning signs about Zoe. They get all mushy when they think of her. Even though the story starts out where one of their members is killed execution style, they really don't seem to care. They're clueless about what's going on in their own organization, going so far as to leave very important business up to someone else.

The ending was just unrealistic. I'm a fan of MC books, but I think I'll skip the rest of this series.

Zoey Delacourte who is curvy girl who just gets fluff pieces from her editor at the Courier, decides that she is going to dig into a recent murder execution style that involves biker gangs. She goes uncover in the Kings Club of whom Jax Traeger & Hunter Ericksen are the presidents. The two find her hot and decide to have some fun. So here we have Zoey a sexy curvy girl with two hot guys with tattoos who are all over like they are starving. They know they are not good for her and that they need to stay away, but they cannot stop thinking about the hot sex they had with Zoey. Zoey at the same time cannot stop falling for them. This book had me laughing the first time she meets the boys. That set the book off to a great start, I could not help but fall in love with these three. This book will become one of my favorite reads for the this year. I could easily read the book again and that just shows you what a excellent read it was.

This was pretty god awful. Worst case of too stupid to live heroin I've ever seen. Let's count how many death threats Zoe ignores to get her story...on second thought let's not cause none of them stuck, unfortunately. I had hope when they shoved her off a catwalk that she would die some horribly painful and gruesome death but nope. She lived. She got her HEA with two guys she knew nothing about and were about as bad-ass as my grandmother holding a kitten. Come to think of it, my grandmother was pretty bad-ass and she would've probably taken the 'chancla' to Jax and Hunter's pussy asses.

Not worth the $2.99, save your hard earned money. Spend it on something with substance like a real MC book. You know where you actually get to see the MC. Madeline Sheehan is still the queen of the MC romance, accept no lame substitutions.

Unfortunately, this was a DNF for me. I was enthusiastic about it, because the heroine was a plus-sized girl. I always love the characters who are different. This heroine ended up TSTL. I didn't like her any more than I liked either of the heroes.

One thing that bothered me a lot was her supposed sexual inexperience. Once with a boy/man who clearly didn't know what he was doing. Not well endowed and a two-pump chump. Next she's with two alpha bikers, and by the end of that sexual encounter, she had multiple orgasms and not only had anal sex but took both men at once (DP). The lack of realism there was astounding to me.

Admittedly, I skimmed until I got to the point where I realized I really didn't care if they had a HEA or not. I won't be checking out the rest of the series.

Fat girls need love to

There was no character development went straight into the story where they had a threesome out of nowhere no discussion about protection. The other thing I did not like about this book was that throughout the book the author kept on telling us how fat or Curvy she was that got old real quick. I wanted to like this book. The book was trying to be bad ass but did not quite cut it. I could see this book Being a bit longer and more drawn out, this book had potential if the author didn’t rush into the story.

Quite a thrill ride!
I love the way Zoe is determined to stand up for herself. She won't take no for an answer and is the intrepid reporter, out to get the story at all costs. Who could have predicted Jax and Hunter?
Great characters. I especially love the humor and tiny insights Zoe brings to each situation.

Wow! Highly entertaining and hot storyline that sucks you right in for the ride. Loved it! Steamy chemistry between Zoe, Jax and Hunter. I usually have issues with the instant love thing but for some reason the way this book was written it didn't bother me. Would recommend. First book for me by this author.

This was a fast fun read. Moving on to book two! As with most of these books the romance happened really fast, but, hey...it is fiction, right?

Curvy never got her the guy, or the job, or good things. Until she stepped into the dark side to get the scoop she needed to prove her merit as a reporter. The dark side had two hot bad boys who just loved curves.

This one starts out with enough steam to power a good-sized city. Jax, Hunter, and Zoe. Count them one two three. This for the woman who had a hard time getting one mediocre guy. One hot night and a warning make that two warnings to stay out of club business for her health.

They all knew what they should do. Walk, no run, in the opposite direction. She had a goal and one hot, really hot, night hadn't changed that. For the guys, they didn't want a sweet girl, even if she was made for them.

Yeah, you guessed it. So who likes to do what's good for them anyway. When the murders that drew her attention to begin with lead her into danger. Can they save her and their club? Is there a future for them?

I enjoyed book one and just learned that her BFF is in book two--along with a bad boy Jax and Hunter can't stand. Hmmm, sounds like it might be as good as this one. I'm on to book 2.

I enjoyed this quick read. It’s a little different than most MC I have read in the past. This is not a bad thing. I just wanted to read more about Hunter, Jax and Zoe when it ended. Of course, Zoe is a reporter looking for her big break to prove she is a journalist. Especially, since her boss does not give her any big stories to write about. Zoe decides to go undercover and doesn’t really have a plan or what to really do when she encounters Hunter and Jax the head of the Kings MC. The guys warn her about digging up information on two incidents that involve the Kings and Road Dogs MCs that maybe in the middle of turf war. Both MCs are not nice people and will not care if Zoe ends up digging her own grave. Zoe’s curiosity gets the best of her and goes digging anyways and finds interesting information. Zoe’s life could be over before her eyes, when someone decides she needs out of the picture for good.

This was a good little read with an interesting storyline, was it in-depth and engrossing maybe not but it draws you in. I feel that with a bit more creative push that this author could pull out a wonderful book that will capture everything. This story skated the edges of MC books so anyone can read it as it’s more about the relationships involved rather than the club. I may not have given this a five star review but it has got me interested in the author and I will be looking at her other books.

Wish I had enjoyed it more but it is a bit blah.

I really wanted to like this book as the story should have been fantastic but it wasn't . It was really disappointed as it was blah , it never took off and was hard to concentrate on . It could have been brilliant as the characters are good but not enough depths or backstory is given to them . Not my favourite book but might try another book by this author to see if it gets better.

The best gift in life

This story was great to read. Their journey from the beginning was funny she really was very naive but it was wonderful that the two men fell in love and finally might have a better future. All three of the stories characters deserved a better life than they had so far experienced. They gave each other the greatest gift in the world. Love. Acceptance . I applaud your gift to us with this story. Thank You
