Since joining Tiny's family she's always been one of the Brothers. As one of the Officers and HS of the newly formed Princes, she has proven her abilities time and time again. She's a comforter, a protector, an enforcer. And since her attack, she's been untouched. Jax was sent to school by MC, was part of Family Security then went Nomad. Now part of the Princes, he decided to let his girl know he's not waiting anymore. The question is - can he break through the wall and get to the soft interior he knows is there? His concern - Will she shoot him before he gets that chance?
L. Ann started with the Baxters and followed that with multiple series and genres. While her books feature paranormal, FBI, ex-military and Badass Bikers, L. Ann is writing about the strong women that these men need in their life to help right the world's wrongs and keep their small part of the world safe. The women are extraordinary, strong and determined to make a difference. The men fight for right in every book. Yes, they kill people. Yes, the MC shoots at the bad guys’ feet to cause them pain. Yes, some throw tampons at each other regularly. That being said, they do these things while stopping human trafficking and experimentation, bringing their world into legitimate businesses, fighting gangs to keep drugs away from their town and kids, keep women sheltered safely while trying to stop domestic abuse. These are men that don’t leave a pack, Team member or Brother behind. They don’t treat women as possessions and they don’t cheat. Respect takes on an honorable meaning. Women and kids are cherished. Everyone is looked out for and everyone is equal. L. Ann has made amazing worlds, tackled the taboo subjects and made it easy to imagine living in a world where your protection comes from the vampires, shifters, freaky kids, albinos and orientals, military turned FBI and some Badass Bikers. With readers writing about rereading the series over and over, she feels like she’s told her characters’ stories in a way that would make them proud. Every book will make you laugh, every book will make you angry for the wrong that happens in the world. Every book will make you cry for the pain that a character feels. Every book gives you hope that we may just get it right yet
I have to say that this series is just getting better and better.
Enforcer has a lot to love about it. First up, one of the top shooters for the MC is a young woman making her way just fine in a man’s world. When it comes to team leaders of the MC high security, she is the cream of the crop, second only to Jesse which made my heart smile. What I loved the most, though, was when Sheila learned the hard way that even the toughest of the tough can fall, all of her brothers stood behind her so she knew they had her back even when their efforts to help her heal didn’t work as intended.
I’ve always admired Sheila. Originally a foster kid she was adopted by Tiny and Nancy. They raised her to be smart, skilled, and unbelievably tough. As part of the second generation of the MC, she’s not one of the kids with any freaky abilities but she’s a protector who’s built to keep her family and the MC safe. Breaking through the traditions of the MC world to become the first woman who rides in defense of the MC, she set one hell of an example. In a previous book, Sheila was kidnapped and raped and really hasn’t allowed herself to heal from that, no matter how she presents herself to her MC family.
Jax was perfect although I do wish we’d known more about him. He waited a long time for Sheila and just when he thought he could make his move all hell broke loose and she ended up hurt. Waiting even longer killed him, but he knew she was worth it, even if she wasn’t so sure. He gave her everything she needed, including treating her like a woman in every way no matter how tough she acted. Even when she was on the job, he gave her what she needed, never making her feel like he thought she shouldn’t be doing it.
I loved that no matter what Sheila or Jax asked or needed from each other, they were “all in” and gave it. No matter how many trials and tribulations they faced, and there were many, they handled it with strength and care. My one little issue with them was they both showed far more patience with a certain MC member than I thought they should have.
Just like every other book in this series, the action was gritty and OTT, but there was also lots of humor and sexy times to offset it. The kids were cute but I do have to say, being constantly told how adorable they were grated on my last nerve.
I think I’m finally figuring out what I like so much about this series. The men are alpha to their core but they love their women, put them first, and not only support them, but they celebrate the strength their women show. I just eat that up.
I absolutely loved Sheila and Jax's story. It was definitely a roller coaster throughout. The flow and story development was great and the 'rents' are hilarious in this book! I am super happy with this series and the way things have gone. I am eagerly awaiting more!!!!!
I first started by reading MC: Knight and then realised that I wanted the whole story and that started with the Baxter's .. although the first books didn't have a lot of crossovers they did set the scene for what is to come in the other books as the stories move along so their importance to the series' as a whole cannot be overstated
I have just read the 22 books to date back to back in the order published on the author's website and decided to review them as a whole. I really don't think they stand well as stand alones as there are too many common threads, too much history and too much character crossover for that so it really is one (very) long story over a very long period of time with each series concentrating on a particular character group but including all of the others (except for the initial Baxter books which didn't have a lot of MC action but did set the scene for a lot of what is to come).
I loved every book although of course some more than others but i am giving an overall five star rating. My biggest issue was that sometimes (often) i found it difficult to be sure exactly who was talking and had to reread sections to try to work it out. I think that perhaps what the author is seeing in her head moves a bit too fast to translate well to the written word for some of us (something like the thoughts of some of her characters - you need to read the stories to understand my thought process here!!)
My other issue was keeping my head straight with the cast of thousands (and this is not an exaggeration) ... with each story building on to what has come before and what will come to be and with most characters continuing to play a place in each consecutive story I found myself constantly stopping to think - now who was that, whose child is that, whose partner is that???? but even amongst that confusion I loved the relationships and the strengths they provided.
The author has an amazing imagination and has brought to the table a fantastic story that i will continue to read and at some point will def read again. I have always loved and had an interest in native american philosophy and also in paranormal and psychic connections and love the way these are ingrained into the books as the stories unfold.
Although there were some things that caused me slight annoyances I cannot deny that as a whole this fits as one of the best series i have enjoyed. my thanks to the author for providing such a thoroughly engaging tale
Enforcer is the fourth book in The Princes of Prophecy series. Enforcer is Jax and Shelia's story! I loved reading their story and watching their relationship develop throughout this book. Although this book could be read as a standalone the characters cross over all the books in each series. Seriously once you begin reading books by this author, you will become quickly addicted to her story lines and have her as one of your one click authors.
Shelia is completely badass. She is strong, sassy, completely dependable, loyal, loving, caring and doesn't take crap from anyone. She's exactly my type of heroine. But underneath her tough outer exterior she is quite vulnerable and has a soft core.
Jax on the other hand is a swoon worthy alpha with a heart of gold.
I loved that this book was told from a dual point of view, it was wonderful to have both the perspectives of the hero and heroine to connect with.
One of my favorite features of this series, is L. Ann Marie's ability to connect all of her books, so that the stories of the previous characters continues with each additional book. The strong themes of family, friendship, loyalty and brotherhood flow throughout this book, but also throughout the remainder of not only this series, but the books in the MC Series, and to an extend the Baxter series as well.
This is a fast paced, well written MC romance with elements of suspense. The characters are complex and completely endearing. This story line is full of drama, action, suspense and love. I've got to say the love scenes are quite steamy in each of the books in the series, and Enforcer is just the same. I look forward to the next book in this series, and cannot wait to see which of the younger generation of bikers will find their happy ever after next.
Loved Shelia and Jax's story! Sheila had a rough childhood until she landed in care with Tiny and Nancy. She gained unconventional, but loving parents, a bunch of foster brother, and the entire MC as family. She excelled in the Little Brothers/Sisters and is now an officer with the Princes. Their go to girl who can do any job.
Jax is a trusted brother from the MC. Sent to school for Criminal Justice, he ends up doing HS and family security. He had had his eye on Sheila since she was 17. He follows the Princes to stay clove to her. Opening a garage, running transport and in charge of the Nomads for the Princes.
Jax is tired of waiting. He has given Shelia time to heal after her kidnapping and gang rape a year ago. When she has a flashback while training HS prospects, he steps up and stays by her side, showing he is all in as she gets herself straight.
Tragic circumstances bring a toddler deaf girl who is a lot like Mitch, to Sheila and an abused 5 year old boy, with a kind heart, to Jax. A new family is born. The Princes and their old ladies, as well as the MC family are all in with them.
The threats keep coming. The latest is an unknown. Shelia and Jax's wedding day starts with a kidnapping and ends in a war zone. The MC gives them an epic do over.
Sometimes I think I'll run out of wonderful platitudes for this author, she's that good. This is book 4 in the Princes of Prophecy Mc . Sheila and Jax's story. It follows on from where LB and Lily's book ends. Despite her horrific attack Sheila not only thrives once she accepts help but let's Jax into her life. What follows is an amazing story of true selflessness when dealing with 2 beautiful children who need them. Jax shows her what an amazing man he is and how much he has always loved her. It wouldn't be an Mc without the crazy 'rents and all the drama that follows them. Sheila is truly as badass as it gets and protects not just herself but all the Mc kids in the process. To sum up this is a book full of love, drama and action. Not only following a new path but catching up with previous beloved characters. Absolutely love this book , series and author. A definite must read book.
Loved this book...the 4th instalment of the Princes Series!!
Sheila has always been a character that stood out for me throughout all the books she's been involved in and I've been pleasantly surprised by just how much I loved this book!
I think it's safe to say that this might just be my favourite (so far!) of this series.
Sheila was as bad ass as she's always come across......and Jax (swoon's)....he's just lovely!
The kids Stella and Brandon are as all the kids have been...cute and totally bad ass n super smart/advanced.
Looking forward to the next book...can't wait to see who is next
I really enjoyed this book . The dynamic between Jax and Sheila was really good. Even though I liked Leader, getting both H and h POV's in this book was better, because you could understand where both characters were coming from. Nothing felt forced. She Dog is bada$$ and Jax loves her more for it. I don't know whose book is next but I can't wait. Thanks again L. Ann Marie for another great read.
This book was a fantastic installment to this series. L Ann has yet to disappoint with these characters and her characters keep growing after everybook. I always anxiously wait for the next installment because these books make me laugh make me cry and always make me feel like I'm living in their shoes . Way to go L Ann, another 5 star review and I'm looking forward to more!
This is Sheila's book. She is one badass woman. She has not dealt with what happened when she was taken by the gang and it catches up with her. When she has a flashback the one person she does want to see her like this is the first one there with a helping hand. With his help she can get through this. But flashbacks are not the only thing that is going to change her life but these are good changes.
While the Princes of Prophecy books can be read as standalones, I highly suggest reading them in order. Honestly, you'll only get everything and everyone if you read the MC series first.
I'm glad we finally have Sheila's story, and that we get to see the side of her other than HS Lead. Jax understands both sides of Sheila. But seriously, Stella and Brandon stole the story. Too cute...too freakin' cute.
I love the fact that this book is about Sheila! She's my hero and every time I read her book I love her more. She's a great role model and such a strong woman. Jax is perfect as her partner. He's a good man, father and Brother. Another stellar story from L. Ann Marie!
As usual another Prince's winner. I was looking forward to Sheila's story. She has always been a tough one and to see her with Jax and the kids, your heart just melts. There had not been one MC or Prince book that I have not loved. I am looking forward to see who is next.
I LOVED it!! Jazz and Sheila's story rocked! There was drama, freaky kids, and let's not forget shooting people! It was awesome getting to know Jax and Sheila, and seeing them start their family! This entire series has kept me wanting more and more! I can't wait to read what happens next! I am sooooooooooo hoping it is Taylor's story.
"Enforcer" (Princes of Prophecy Book 4) by L. Ann Marie is a great read. I loved Sheila and Jax's story! This is an excellent addition to the Princes of Prophecy Series. This story is packed full of action, drama, overcoming tragedy, passion, romance, family, MC, and more. I highly recommend to all fans of MC romance. Looking forward to seeing what happens next!
Love when both the main leads are kick ass! One of my fav books from one of my favorite authors, who is only getting better and better at her craft. But have to recommend that if you are starting reading her, it is good to start at least with Knight and the MC series, if not at the Baxters. 4.5 and I round up.
Loved She's story. I cried a few time.. Twice was out of happiness. So glad things worked out for Jax and SheDog!!! Can't wait to see what happens next in the storyline. I recommend this series and the author.
the best so far in this new series. it has tears, laughter, courage, love , compassion, danger, intrigue and a happy ending. Re-read in September , 2018. Really good story. Action packed, funny... Revisited in August, 2020 and found comfort in familiar story with wonderful characters.
I loved the story between Jax and Shelia. Loved how Jax brought out the sweet in Shelia. They turned out to have an awesome love story and their kids are so cool. I love all of these books and as always excited for the next.
This book wasn't as detailed on the mc side of the story. It was definitely more about the couple. It seems to also be a lead in to something bigger that's going to happen.
Damn you did it again..absolutely loved it. I love Sheila... after everything she's been through and she's still a badass and hasn't let it bring her down :)
Sheila "Enforcer" "She-Dog" Grew up with the Brothers by Blood as her "uncles," A Brother to the brothers in the Princes of Prophecy. She has always been an equal since they were all in Little Brothers. Has always "crushed" on Jax. Suffers from PTSD.

Judy Found living in one of the empty houses in the homeless neighborhood. Is a "special" who Dakota reads for Sheila Her mother had died a year ago and she had run from her stepfather's house (had been abused).

Sheila and Jax now have two chidren . . . both thought the other would be upset and neither were.
Strapper Causes trouble for Sheila all through out the story.
This not a lighthearted romance where boy meets girl and they live happily ever after. It deals with a darkness no one should ever have to face. Sheila is an enforcer for the Princes and is trying to deal with the darkness that threatens to consume her. The only one that can help her to open up is Jax. He lets her know that she is not alone and is worth fighting for. This story isn't just about them, but also the closeness the brotherhood has had for each other. They have each other's backs and they don't have to be related by blood to be a family. This is the third book that I've read by the author and I've yet to be disappointed.
SHEILA AKA SHE-DOG IS A KICKASS MEMBER OF THE PRINCES, BUT AFTER A VICIOUS ATTACK BY AN OUTLAW GANG LEAVES HER VULNERABLE SHE STARTS DOUBTING HER PLACE IN THE CLUB AND AS A WOMAN. IT IS JAX WHO REAWAKENS HER TO LOVE AND HER PLACE AMONGST HER BROTHERS. A HUSBAND AND 2 FREAKY KIDS LATER THE SHE-DOG IS BACK IN BUSINESS! 5 SHINY DUCATIS GOES TO ANOTHER KICKASS STORY! THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL BIKER BOOK!!!
Sheila and her badass ways will leave you wanting more!
Gotta love the fact that women in the MC are awesome too! Sheila shows that steel runs deep and badass doesn't discriminate. Jax is the perfect match for Sheila and love how he helps her overcome the hurdles she encounters. You will meet all of the characters you have come to love so much. Great book!
Heavy subjects, tons of laughter and lots of love through out every book. After all these series I've been reading , I'm still in awe at how they are written.
Sheila is a tough but she is falling apart and needs help and in the middle of that she's starting a relationship with Jax and two kids in this next book.
