Long Ride (Black Sparks MC)
Once you go biker, you never go back.
I thought I’d moved on.
But even though I let go of the bad boy, he never let go of me.
Nicholas Stone will either drag me to his bed and take me to heaven…
Or drag me to hell and watch me burn.
LIANA
I left home to chase a dream.
Instead, I stumbled into a nightmare.
My police officer ex has gone insane since our break-up.
He’s everywhere I look.
Lurking in my shadows.
Haunting me.
I flee, back to the only place I’ve ever felt safe.
But the devil waiting for me in my hometown isn’t much better.
In the eight years I’ve been gone, Nicholas Stone has become so much more.
More powerful.
More tatted.
More irresistible.
But just when I start to think that, if I let my guard down, I can be safe in his arms…
A gift arrives from a not-so-secret admirer.
My ex has discovered where I went.
He sees who I’m with.
And I know that my troubles are far from over.
In fact, they’re just beginning.
NICHOLAS
I’ve never forgotten the girl who broke my heart.
But I’ve filled the hole she left with nothing but pure f**king savagery.
The biker life suited me.
It lets me get my hands dirty.
There’s no feeling quite like the wind in your face, an open stretch of highway, and your enemies’ cries for mercy still ringing in your ears.
But Liana’s return threatens to undo the man I’ve become.
I need to know why she’s back after all these years.
There must be something she’s hiding.
And yet, she refuses to admit it.
Until the ugly truth comes roaring back with a vengeance and a death wish.
But there’s something different this time around.
Liana is mine.
And if her ex thinks he can come anywhere near her again, I’ll have to teach him the hard way:
Never, ever mess with a biker.

ENTICINGLY well-written, this full-length, standalone MC tale is one of the BEST romance novels this year!
Truly the BEST full-length, standalone MC tale within one of my ALL-TIME favorite series! If you are looking to read a stellar MC Romance with exceptional writing, characterization, plot, and theme, then “LONG RIDE” is your next purchase. Not only is it a second chance romance with all the SUPER-STEAM any romance reader looks for, it is also one of the best plots within a year of amazingly creative and entertaining plots. The plot of “LONG RIDE” is so compelling, I could not put the book down! Full of unexpected twists and turns, the blurb does not convey how superbly author Thomas builds the tensions and suspense of this novel. As with all MC tales, “LONG RIDE” has strong language and violence so no one under 18+ years of age should apply. For those over 18, this super steamy, MC romance will curl the toes and entertain for hours, but it also deals with some serious stuff centered around the manipulation and violence towards women. GREAT news, there is the promised and exceptionally well-written HEA that is so detailed, this reader did not want to see the story end. PLEASE write more novels in this series, Ms. Thomas. I will purchase every one. Despite the fact that I volunteered to receive an ARC copy of “LONG RIDE,” I plan to purchase a copy to place in the FAVORITES collection of my Kindle. This is my honest opinion of the novel, and I suggest you purchase your copy of “LONG RIDE” today! You will be so glad you did! Happy pages! 😉

This is the best romantic MC story I have ever read. It is real, gutsy, dangerous, believable, emotional, painful, heart wrenching, brutal, truthful, passionate and loving. It has all the ingredients for an excellent bad boy romance. Reading page after page had me sitting on the edge of my seat full of suspense and waiting for the other shoe to drop. When the shoe did drop, it was never where you expected. This has some astonishing twists and turns in the story. The emotional rollercoaster had me holding my breath one minute and the next sighing happily at the result. There was angst, betrayal, paranoia, bravery, sacrifice, terror, fear, fear, fear and danger. Lots of danger. This storyline covers about a nine-year time line. From the time the hero and heroine were teens till they were young adults. It covers their hardships each had to face. One hardship caused by the other and the other hardships caused by guilt, grief, anger and hope for a better future that never came. But when the balls are against the wall, who knows what will happen. This is a wonderful read and I highly recommend it. I received an Advanced Readers Copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

LONG RIDE
A interesting read which was enjoyable and entertaining. The storyline was filled with angst, drama, and emotion with some violence and romance. I loved Nick and Lianna, they were likable characters who both had their own issues and troubles to work out. However, I did struggle to get into this book in the beginning and stay focused, but I think that is probably more my view and expectations on things rather than the authors writing. This isn’t a favourite of mine by this author. Overall an okay read for me. A copy was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book with my honest opinion.

A suspenseful well written entertaining and intruguing storyline. It has lots of action, drama, twists, turns, angst, heat, passion, and chemistry that had me hooked from the begining with exciting well developed characters. Nick is the Vice President of the Black Sparks Prudence MC and has never forgotten Liana who broke his heart when she left all those years ago. 8 years later she comes back to her hometown running from her abusive ex. With the chemistry and connection still there can they have something? Can he keep her safe? I truly enjoyed their suspenseful adventure in this sexy read. I voluntarily reviewed this standalone ARC.

Liana and Nick had a dramatic end to their teenage relationship. Now she is back and so is more danger for them all.
It is a well written MC romance with lots of action. The characters have great chemistry and you can see that they still have strong feelings after so many years apart. He lives a life of violence and she needs that kind of man to keep her safe.

Loved it once I got into it Liana was struggling to make it as an actress in New York and when she realised her ex was stalking her she fled back to where she came from. Thinking she was safe she let her Uncle who was the President of the MC that her Father used to run, he however thought she was involved with a rival MC. Nicholas Stone was put in prison because she didn't tell the truth. It is a good book with a few twists and turns

A long lonely ride. Nick has led a tough lonely life. Liana goes from a controlling abusive step-father to a controlling sadistically abusive ex boyfriend.
Nick and Liana are brought together again. Neither can catch a break.Loved the story. I had tears in my eyes. I wanted to hit a couple of the characters.

Two chapters in and I was done! It was confusing, didn’t make sense, and the grammar was atrocious.

I am a fan of this author, but I struggled with this book. I just couldn’t connect with the characters or storyline until 3/4 thru.
