The Traitor
He sold his soul to the devil, now he’s a traitor seeking redemption…
Spencer Knox was forced to leave his whole world behind when he betrayed his boss. After years of hiding in the dark shadows of the underworld and doing unspeakable things, Knox finally took a stand for what was right, and it cost him everything. As the new owner of a mechanic shop in a quaint little town, all he wants is to live a normal life in his new mountain hideaway and redeem himself from past mistakes.
But life has a way of sending you back into hell when you least expect it…
Then he sees Josie Baird, the most mysterious and beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on. She was far too young and innocent to get mixed up with someone like him so he stays away, determined to keep Josie from his darkness, not wanting to drag her down with him. Things change though when a friend from his past arrives in town. His protective instincts are out in force and there is no way he can keep his distance from Josie now, even if it means being drawn into an unlikely threesome that will break all the rules he set for himself in his new life.
Will Knox let his regrets swallow him whole or will he dare to dream for something more, something unexpected, something a traitor doesn’t deserve?

The Traitor is the second book in the An Underground Bad Boys Romance series by India Kells. This is a fantastic book with some HOT M/F/M ‘action’ that will steam up your whole reading experience.
Spencer Knox carries the burden of a past he’s not proud of. He went against everything he knew, betraying his boss and the life he’d made. In his heart and mind, he considers himself a traitor and would love to find a little redemption. He moved far away to start fresh. He set himself up with a mechanical garage and wants to just live a ‘normal life’, for a change. But, as often is the case, fate has a different plan for him.
Josie works herself to the bone and still can’t afford a decent place to stay. She’s a hamster on a wheel of debt that she’s desperate to get out from under. She takes on the job at the garage to cover for the receptionist who is away for a while. And this is where things start to get a whole lot more interesting!
Oh, and let’s not forget Gage…. who came to help Spencer with the garage. He adds an extra element of interest- and sizzle!
As I have said before, Ms. Kells is one of my favourite authors, so getting this book was definitely a ‘no-brainer’. This story is wonderfully written, with red HOT encounters, drama, danger, pleasure, pain, heartache, intrigue, suspense, romance, and emotion. The story may be sizzling hot, but there is definitely more to the story than just the ménage and sexcapades- there is a ‘deeper’ story, with clever crafting, interwoven details, and the beautifully flawed characters who are each fighting their own demons- and looking for their own form of redemption. The characters were so well developed, with their own interesting personalities, quirks and flaws. They were relatable, believable, and endearing. I was rooting for them the whole way through. I really loved catching up with Tessa and Locke (from Book #1)too!!!
The ending was perfect!
I can’t wait to see what comes next!
Thank you, Ms. Kells!

The characters in this story are just that, characters. They are funny, sweet, determined and super sexy together! Spencer Knox grew up a dangerous street rat, someone who would do anything for a safe place to sleep without a knife in the gut. Spencer decides he needs to get off of the street and change his ways. He moves to the isolated town of Landston to start over. No one knows him here and that’s the way he likes it. Josie Baird is also starting over without her crappy husband who is refusing a divorce until she finishes paying him that is. She is running herself to the bone, while trying to get that divorce. She is so determined and strong. Gage is Spencer’s friend from the streets. He’s looking for a break from the crime and hate filled city life. When these three meet there is an explosion of feelings but only one is willing to do anything about it until they are thrown together in work and play!
Of course with a title like, The Traitor, one wonders who that could be. There are secrets to be revealed but do secrets make you a traitor? Does choosing the lesser of two evils make you a traitor? Does having feelings for more than one person make you a traitor?
I love the way Kells writes. This story is interesting, page turning and even jaw dropping. The characters feel like real people, not too perfect, not too sexy, just right. The adventure these three take together could really happen but the style of writing helps this reader escape my real world.
Highly recommend this story.

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells is a dark erotic romance story that is Hot, hot, hot. It is M/F/M that will leave you sizzling and steamy as the words jump off the page. I really enjoy India’s books and her stories are wonderfully written. We are taken on a journey where there is drama and danger, heartache and pleasure, suspense and intrigue. The characters are full of pain and emotion and are as flawed as they are broken and all fighting their own demons. This ménage à trois is beautifully woven and well crafted.
Spencer’s life has been spent in the dark and seedy side of life and it has left him with things that are bogging him down. He is not proud of that life and the burden is sometimes too tough to handle. He is a man of his word but even he had his limits and he betrayed and left behind the life that he once knew, that is until that past comes back to haunt him when a mysterious woman comes into his life.
Josie world fell apart and now she has to work herself to the bone all because of her horrible ex. She suddenly finds that there is more to the handsome stranger who has been in town for the last 6 months and that her life is about to change.
Gage had to get away, so he decides to catch up with his old mate whose life was similar to his. When he arrives he finds something to keep his mind off things by turning up the heat but he soon finds that he is again the odd one out.
I can’t wait to see what India has for us next.

The Traitor by India Kells a five-star read that you will adore. Secrets will be revealed in this story and people will surprise you, on occasions some make you want to kiss them and in others they make you want to hurt them. I enjoyed the Debt Collector, but I adored the Traitor, as the characters just seem more real, and more determined. Spenser Knox and Josie Baird will just make you have a need to turn the next page quicker than the last, Josie in particular just made me care for her strength and envy her self-determination. I must say a special mention to Gage, he just had a special sparkle.

5-Starsp
The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells was an excellent 5-star read . I loved how easily I was pulled into the storyline and also how easy it was to follow. This is definitely not a book for young readers due to sexual scenes. It made for a very steamy romantic novel though. I also really enjoyed the character development and various scenery. This was such an excellent read!

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells needs to be added to your reading list as soon as possible. The book is not too lengthy and I devoured this book in a single day, and it kept my interest from start to finish. This is the second book in the series and while I always read series in order, this book can be read as a stand-alone in my opinion. India Kells is an amazing writer, who has a way of drawing in her readers. She portrays all characters flawlessly while delivering stories that are nothing short of remarkable.
Josie Baird has made some decisions in her life. She made a mistake of marrying a man who turned out to be abusive and has come to blackmail her to get his debt paid off. Josie wants nothing less that her freedom from the marriage so she is working herself almost to death, doing whatever she can to get to her goal. Spencer Knox has recently moved into her quiet small town, and took over ownership of a mechanic shop. Knox has many demons living inside of him from his upbringing and a choice that he had to make, which ultimately led to him being a traitor. He has an attraction to Josie but promises himself to keep it at bay, thinking that his demons are too much for her.
However, on a whim an old friend from his past shows up at his shop. Knox knows that he can no longer stay to the side and let Josie work and wear herself down like she has been doing for months. He becomes protective and insistent on helping her, however he can manage. The three of them become somewhat of a couple because Knox still pushes his true feelings for Josie to the side.
Is it truly easy to share someone that you want for yourself, even if you think you don’t deserve it?

5 out of 5 stars
The story The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells is a book that I found entertaining to read and hard to put down. It is a story that pulled me in from the very beginning. I enjoyed reading about the characters of Spencer Knox and Josie Baird. Spencer has recently moved to his new mountain home and is the new owner of a mechanic shop. He has always said that he is able to give away his body but not his heart. Life in a little town has become more interesting now that he has noticed Josie. Josie is a woman who is strong, independent, feisty, and extremely stubborn. If you ask Spencer, she is the most beautiful woman that he has ever seen. When a friend from Spencer’s past comes to town, he finds himself in a threesome and unable to keep his distance from her. The attraction between Spencer and Josie is strong. He believes he has a dark side that he has to control. She is intrigued by hints of who he was in the past. Will Spencer take a chance and act on his deepening feelings for Josie or will he push her away? What does the future hold for Spencer and Josie? Read this book to find out. This is a story that has suspenseful and emotional moments. There are scenes that are very steamy and will make the temperature in the room rise. I enjoyed reading about many of the additional characters that interact with Spencer and Josie. I began to care for these two with each chapter that I read and wanted them to be happy. I highly recommend reading this book.

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells was a great 5 star read.
Knox has bought a mechanic shop in a small town away from everything. Josie is a woman that Knox has seen several times and can’t get her off his mind. Josie is trying to stay to herself and working to get herself away from her soon to be ex and his debts. When she is approached by her friend Georgia to cover her job while she goes away for a few weeks she jumps at the opportunity to make more money. Knox is surprised to see Josie working in his shop office, but pleasantly surprised.
When Knox’s friend Gage shows up and offers to work in his shop things get even more interesting. As time moves forward Knox continues to battle with his attraction to Josie.
He kept repeating to himself that she was too young and he was too damaged even as he turned her chair so she faced him fully and his mouth descended to hers.
Knox was great, he was very concerned for Josie and wanted to take care of her before she ran herself ragged. Josie ends up living with Knox and Gage, yum. Josie struggles with self esteem issues due to her ex, so the Gage and Knox decided to show her just how beautiful she is.

The Traitor is the 2nd book in the Underground Bad Boys Series by India Kells. It is a fantastic M/F/M erotic romance novel that will have you gripped from the very beginning. India Kells is an author that has been rapidly climbing up my favourite authors list in the last 18 months and this book is another fantastic example of how great an author she is.
I loved both of the main characters. Josie is a young woman struggling with several jobs to pay off debt incurred by her estranged husband. Spencer Knox has recently moved to the town to start a new life. When he realises the horrid conditions she’s living in her insists that she moves in with him and his friend Gage. This is just the start of an erotic relationship between the 3 of them.
The sex scenes between the 3 of them are very hot and steamy. You may need a fan to cool yourself down. It becomes apparent after a while that Josie and Knox would prefer it to just be the 2 of them in the relationship.
There is more to this book than just hot sex (although that is damn good). Knox has a battle with his demons over his growing feelings for Josie. Josie’s estranged husband makes an unwanted appearance which puts Josie in danger.
I also loved that we had an appearance from Locke and Tessa from the first book in this series.
I hope that this is not the end of this series and that India Kells gives us more from the Underground Bad Boys.

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells. I flipping LOVED this story! I love India Kells so anytime I see her name attached to a book I'm reading it. This is the story of Spencer Knox who because of a life living on the streets turned into him working his way up in the Underground but his conscience wouldn't let him keep doing it. He eventually turns on them and helps take them down. Now he's a very wanted guy. He moves to a small town where he buys a garage and works there trying to forget how he is now a "Traitor". One day on his way to work he sees a beautiful girl walking to the shop from the Lake which is where he lives. He calls her the Lady from the Lake but her name is Josie Baird who is running from her own past. Her abusive ex husband has black mailed her into paying all his bills before he would give her a divorce so she's flat broke and starting from scratch as well. Josie is very proud and doesn't want hand out from anyone so when Spencer stops to pick her up during a blizzard and take her home she hesitates. He finally convinces her and he takes her to his house that he shares with his friend Gage. Gage has come to help Spencer with the garage and they are both attracted to Josie. This is where the it gets hot up in here! I don't want to say to much else to ruin the book for you but do yourself a favor and read this book! You will love it!

The Traitor is the second book in India Kells’ Underground Bad Boys Series! I love India Kells writing, I have read most of what she has written so when The Traitor popped up on my radar I knew I had to pick it up! I fell in love with the Underground Bad Boys series when I read Locke and Tessa’s story (and I was so happy to see them popping up here as well)!
The Traitor gives us Spencer Knox who feels that he is a traitor as he had to go against the people he grew up with and worked with. He has escaped to a small town and bought a garage and is trying to live a normal life. Well, it does not go too well as he notices Josie Baird though originally he decides to stay away from her as he believes he has nothing to offer her … The series has a M/F/M aspect to it so we need the second M and it is Knox’ best friend Gage who comes to help Knox with his garage and he is the opposite to Knox – full of life, joking and bantering …
You need to pick up a copy to see how their paths cross and get entwined and learn that all of them have their own demons and we need to go to the end to see whether they take a chance on the future … I cannot wait to see what the writer will give us in her third book!

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2)
By India Kells
5 stars
The Traitor was another amazing 5 star read by an extremely talented author! I loved every single second of what I was reading. When I read book 1 in this series I said that whilst I’m not a fan of MFM stories I love this author so I’m willing to read them however even I cannot deny that pull that these characters had to each other. The passion, the chemistry and the connection that they had was immense and the author really does write the scenes very well. I loved Spencer, there was just something about him that drew me to him straight away, he felt like he was broken and it honestly made me want to give him the biggest hug ever! Josie was a fantastic female lead; she was feisty with a stubborn streak and in my opinion perfect for Spencer! Throw Gage in to the mix and it told for a very steamy time for these three characters!
I absolutely loved this story and would 100% recommend it to other readers. It could be read as a standalone however I highly recommend the first book in the series (and any other book by this author) also!

India Kells really kicked up the steam with this second installment of the Underground Bad Boys Romance series. The Traitor has to be my favorite book of India Kells that I have read yet. I love the dark and twisty storyline laced with passion and emotion that can’t be topped except if it were to be real life. Be prepared for steamy m/f/m scenes so make sure that is your cup of tea, if so this is one of the better written scenarios that I have read.
Spencer has not had an easy life, most definitely not the one that he would like to have either. Things may not be so easy even now, when a mysterious woman brings his past back into light. Josie is killing herself with work to try and undo the damage the past and terrible ex caused her. The new man in town will bring about even more change. And then there is Gage, my personal favorite. He is running from the past and finds himself a little something to occupy his time and mind in the meantime. Unfortunately, Gage will have more struggle and once again the one who doesn’t belong. These three will light up your kindles and keep you on your toes until the very end. I can’t wait to find out what the next book will hold!

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells
4 Stars
This book is hot, hot , hot! You’ll need some water to cool yourself off while reading this book. Although it’s book two in the series, it can be read as a stand-alone. Characters from part one make a reappearance but this is a separate story. I suggest that you read part one because it’s excellent as well.
This story revolves around Spencer Knox. After managing to get out from the Underworld, he decides to start over in a small town in the middle of nowhere where he meets the woman of his dreams. There are too many reasons why he shouldn’t get involved yet when a friend shows up in town, they end up having a threesome.
The Traitor is filled with tantalizing sex that will leave you wanting more. There is also action and danger which will keep you riveted until the end. This is another winning book by India Kells.

Spencer Knox carries the burden of a past he’s not proud of. He went against everything he knew, betraying his boss and the life he’d made. In his heart and mind, he considers himself a traitor and would love to find a little redemption. He moved far away to start fresh. He set himself up with a mechanical garage and wants to just live a ‘normal life’, for a change. But, as often is the case, fate has a different plan for him.
Josie works herself to the bone and still can’t afford a decent place to stay. She’s a hamster on a wheel of debt that she’s desperate to get out from under. She takes on the job at the garage to cover for the receptionist who is away for a while. And this is where things start to get a whole lot more interesting!
Oh, and let’s not forget Gage…. who came to help Spencer with the garage. He adds an extra element of interest- and sizzle!

The Traitor is the second book in the Underground Bad Boys series. It can be read as a standalone.
I enjoyed the characters in this book. It can be difficult to find romance novels with strong female leads, but I found Josie to be a well-written character. Even though Josie was in a bad situation, she was making an effort on her own to take care of her problems before Knox showed up in her life. It didn’t have that whole damsel-in-distress feel. I did feel bad for Gage at the end. Poor guy. Third time will be the charm? One can hope at least. I love his character.
The Traitor has plenty of steamy scenes to keep you entertained. I’m glad the author is writing bisexual characters. It gives more complexity to the story. One of the other things I love about this book is that it isn’t all light and fluffy. It’s got grit yet still manages to pull on your emotions.

Wow-what a read! The Traitor is Book #2 in the Underground Bad Boys Series by author India Kells, and boy oh boy was I not disappointed with how amazingly captivating this book was. This is a book that pulls you in until you forget everything around you and the next thing you know you have finished it. This is a very steamy, sexy romantic read with characters that demand to have their story read. I loved reading the journeys of the main characters, also with how descriptive India Kells writes her books you can't help but feel as though you are living the story along with them. The chemistry that is within this book is undeniable.
This book had everything and more! I can’t wait to see what else is to come and also what else this author can bring! I’ll eagerly be awaiting more from India Kells.

The Traitor (An Underground Bad Boys Romance Book 2) by India Kells
5 Stars!!!!!
I am absolutely without words this book was such a great read. I have read this author before and I was not disappointed. I really was hooked from the first page. I realy find that this author has such a refreshing style. The characters really jump up off of the page and straight into my imagination. I felt as though I was Josie.
I really like how the author creates the drama around the characters. Josie and Spencer just have such a spark and the little added bonus of Gage well that was just the right amount of spice. I also like how just a bit of the past comes into play. The author really draws in the reader and I will definitely be reading more from this author as well as hopefully this series.

The Traitor by India Kells is the second book in the Underground Bad Boys Romance series. This book can be read as a stand-alone.
India Kells has definitely done it again. This book is full of brilliant characters with amazing chemistry. I enjoyed the first book in this series however I think this one was definitely better. It felt like there was s much stronger connection with the characters and the overall story.
This author is one of those that seems to do everything effortlessly. It is never hard to get into one of her books or to enjoy it. I have yet to read one of her books that hasn’t been amazing. If you aren’t familiar with her work you need to change that immediately - and I would recommend starting with this series.

The Traitor by India Kells is the second book in the Underground Bad Boys series. I love India Kells stories. She is an amazing storyteller. She can hold my attention with her words and the images that I can see in my mind’s eye. I am not one for steaming sex scenes but this story made me rethink that view point. This story is about Spencer and what he has been apart of socially. He has been on the down low since he betrayed his boss. He sees Josie and he wants to keep his distance because he believes she is not right for him. He was doing just that until he sees someone from his past. Will Spencer keep his distance or will he take Josie under his wing? Will the person from his past get in the way? Read on to see what happens.
