Hawk is an enforcer for the Salvation Kings MC. He's used to doing odd jobs for his president, but he never expected to be protecting the brother of one of King’s old army buddies. When Hawk meets Elijah, his world is turned upside down. He never thought he’d need anything other than his club and his brothers, but Elijah makes him want so much more. With every second spent with Elijah, he falls a little bit more in love.

Elijah is a teacher at a school for deaf and hard-of-hearing children. He never expected to get involved with a motorcycle club but, then again, he never thought he’d stumble over a man dumping a body either. He got the man sent to jail but while he waits for the trial to begin, he’s noticed someone stalking him. The last thing he wants is someone else following him around all day, but Hawk won’t take no for an answer. Elijah knows Hawk is dangerous, but during their time together, he gets to know a man he could easily imagine a life with.

With a murderer targeting Elijah and Hawk’s past threatening to jeopardize the life he’s built, the odds aren’t in their favor. Will they come out on the other side unscathed?

I LOVE Hawk & Elijah! Elijah is so strong and brave. I really liked how he wouldn't back down . Hawk was great. Even the little talking when his back was turned so Elijah couldn't read his lips. It made him seem real and not perfect. I love that.

I swear I fall more in love with these rough and tough biker bad boys with each new book. This book is a continuation of the last story but focuses on a new main character as the spotlight.

In this one, Hawk is the main man of interest. He is one of King’s enforcers. King saved Hawk from a life that he was not happy with. After leaving the Navy, he became a hitman. When King offered him a new life with Salvation King’s MC, Hawk jumped at the opportunity.

The last thing Elijah ever expected to witness was someone doing something as disturbing and horrible as what he witnessed a man named Johnson do. Johnson is in jail right now but the trial is still months away and someone has been watching Elijah. For the most part he felt safe enough because his brother was staying with him, but now that Tommy has been called back to active duty, he no longer feels safe. To make things harder, Elijah cannot hear anyone if they approach him because he is deaf.

Since Tommy needs help with keeping Elijah safe, he calls his old Army buddy Hawk. Hawk is not too happy about being on babysitting duty but once he meets Elijah, he cannot help but like the man. He is sweet and has this innocence about him but he is also fierce and protective of those around him. The fact that he is a teacher helping children who are disabled the same way he is also pulls at something deep in Hawk.

It takes time for Hawk to realize that his feelings for Elijah are constantly growing and becoming stronger but once he does, he cannot turn it off. When he realizes that Elijah feels the same, all bets are off and there’s is not turning back!

When Elijah’s life is in danger, there is nothing that Hawk would not do to save him. But the real question is, how will Elijah react when he learns about Hawk’s past? How will Elijah handle that Hawk puts his life on the line on a regular basis with the MC?

This was such a great read! I love this series. With each new book the story expands. I love that each book has been about a different member of the club. I also love that with each new book, Ana makes sure you get some of the previous characters as well. I look forward to whatever Ana has up her sleeve next for this series. Amazing read for an equally amazing series!

Hawk and Elijah... I don't really have the words. I loved Hawk's attitude towards everything and especially how he tackled challenges in communication with Elijah. Even though he didn't know in advance that Elijah was deaf he didn't change how hw acted he only modified what he had = his way of communication. Elijah has crappy parents (really wanted them to get thrown where the sun don't shy - unfortunately no such scene) but he has a big brother who has a huge heart and who made sure that even though he was flown overseas for mission his brother was taken care of - I liked that Elijah even though he didn't really want any protection from a stranger or be a burden he appreciates what his brother did. This couple really made my heart melt.

I'm hooked on this series and I was so,so looking forward to Hawk's story. From the previous books he comes out as this stone faced, cold eyed assassin who, at the same time, melts when baby Nicky is around. Quite the intriguing parodox,am I right?

So,Hawk has already proven that under the tough exterior he hides a soft heart. But,never as much as he does after he meets Elijah. The deaf teacher just gets under his skin and brings out the best in Hawk:his tenderness, his caring side and the fiercest protectiveness. Elijah is everything Hawk never thought he'd need,but now can't live without: gentle,honest, sweet and selfless. Because, while Hawk has a family with the MC,I think it's wonderful how he's finally found happiness and home with Elijah.

𝗛𝗮𝘄𝗸 is absolutely a page turner. The romance between Hawk and Elijah is spiced up by their chemistry and by danger. After all,having a vicious murderer to take down is bound to ad intensity. And then,there's the Ronin situation. Finally, I got the answers to the many questions I had,although the threat to the Salvation Kings MC seems far from over.

I really hope there will be more books in this series, because my curiosity is spiked up by some characters and I'm sure Ana Night can write some amazing stories for them.

Ana Night's Hawk is a great idea for a story. And luckily for the reader, the author excels in carrying out this idea.

The main idea of the story? A sign language teacher falls in love with his bodyguard, a former hit man. Oh hell yes!

Elijah stumbles across danger, setting up his need of a bodyguard. Enter Hawk.

Elijah and Hawk are seriously sweet together. Hawk's instant desire to learn how to communicate with Elijah is tender and beautiful. This aspect is completely swoon worthy. Hawk is amazingly supportive and loving, the reader can't help but to fall in love with him.

As for Elijah's parents, well they can just rot in hell.

I enjoyed this fast paced tale full of action, danger, and betrayal. And in the end, Hawk finds something more important than his MC Club for the first time in his life. It's beautiful!

If you enjoy MC club romances, you'll love Hawk. Ana Night delivers with this amazing story.

Wonderful characters, lots of action, suspense all combine to make a terrific story!  This story grabbed me right away and kept me reading until the last page in one sitting.  Solid plot with lots of incredible supporting characters really make the MC's stand out and feel real. I enjoyed the complexity of a deaf character and i enjoyed seeing this MC treated as a multi-dimensional person.
 
Hawk and Elijah are awesome!  i really enjoyed these characters and they had wonderful connections with plenty of steam.  I really loved how accepting both of these guys are of each other and how honest they can be.  These guys seem so different, but they are like missing pieces of a puzzle.  

This is book three of the Salvation Kings MC series and can be read as a stand-alone, however i would recommend reading the books in order to achieve the most enjoyment. 

I was gifted this book from the author and i freely give my honest opinion and review.

Started skimming to the end right around the 65% mark. That was the arc and then it just moves on to MC stuff that I wasn't interested in.

I should have DNF'd around chapter 4 when it felt like every sentence started with HE. OMG change the sentence structure. I felt like I was reading something one of my kids would have written in 4th grade with all the HE sentence starters.

But with a deaf lead, I really wanted to like the story. They went from protector to lovers in a blink. Yes it was weeks into it, but there was no real even "lust" build up. Just BAM fucking Like WHAT?? And while I do love those types of books, this wasn't one of them. There was no real insight into them even liking each other beyond Elijah thinking Hawk was hot.

This is another excellent addition to the Salvation Kings MC series and Hawk and Elijah are my favorite couple so far. They are perfect for each other and exactly what the other needs. Elijah is able to see who Hawk really is in spite of his past. Hawk immediately starts learning ASL as soon as he meets Elijah and he is so sweet and protective of him. They have an amazing connection and smoking hot chemistry as well as genuinely wanting just to be with each other as much as they can. There is danger, action, a sweet love story, wonderful secondary characters, a few surprising twists and a great ending in this exciting story and I can't wait to read the next book in this series.

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book.

simplesmente TUDO pra mim.
pra começar fiquei de cara q ele nao ficou com a talyssa jurei q ele ia ser o par romantico dela e que ia assumir a criança
em segundo lugar amei q o outro prota eh pcd. e acho uma escolha curiosa ela nao ter trabalhado a questao de preconceito e acessibilidade ainda mais pq todo mundo aceitou ele de peito aberto oq eh engraçadissimo comparando com o tanto q encheram o saco no nash so pq ele era paramedico tipo nem faz sentido mas okay
achei a segunda metade mt apressada o ritmo mudou total nao teve tanta profundidade e tal
mas ainda eh um livro. eu recomendaria pra alguem q quer ler um livro legalzinho so pra passar o tempo

Hawk is sent to protect Elijah after he witnesses a murder. Elijah is deaf and the moment these two met the sparks are flying. The book is very sexy and hot, romantic, very sweet, so very intense moments, mysterious and all the characters are likable. Ana Night is one of my go-to authors and she didn't disappoint.

Not a bad story... Just started to lose interest in it.
I started skimming ahead around 56% until I just stopped even doing that after 70% and gave up.
I DNF the story before this at 35%... So not sure if I'll pick up the next. Good stories and well done... Just not for me right now as I'm looking for stories that really suck you into them.

DNF at 67%

It wasn't believable. I wantedbto love this story esp after finding out Elijah was deaf but nothing clicked. I felt no connection b/w the 2 MC's and then Elijah's story basically ends super early in the book and then they move on to another situation completely. Not sure how it ends as I didn't make it that far.

Hawk

I was pleased to read Hawk’s book after the little snippets we had of him in the previous ones. Elijah is a sweetheart and just what Hawk needed.

*I voluntarily read this book. All opinions stated are solely my own and no elses*

This is the third book in the series and can be read as a standalone.

Hawke was sweet yet protective of Elijah. It was sweet when he started learning ASL so he can communicate better with Eli.

Elijah was adorable and I loved it when he ogled Hawke or when he ran his fingers over Hawke’s tats. These two didn’t have to try hard to be good together: they just were. The sexual tension was built up perfectly and the chemistry was off the charts.

Fantastic story, thoroughly enjoyed it. Great addition to the series!

Sangat menikmati bagaimana hubungan mereka terjalin dengan dua MC yang berkarakter kuat dan hebat. Hawk yang berkenan untuk mempelajari ASL untuk mempermudah komunikasi dengan Elijah dan sangat menerima Elijah apa adanya. Sedangkan Elijah adalah orang yang mengutamakan kepentingan orang lain baru dirinya dan bisa menerima keadaan yang dialaminya tanpa berkeluh kesah. Elijah membawa kebahagiaan dan keceriaan dan warna di kehidupan Hawk yang gelap karena masa lalunya itu.
