Her. Me. Handcuffs. You think you know what we’re up to, don’t you?

I’m Archer.
I’ve been in trouble plenty but I got these bad boys from home.
Emily looks so good handcuffed to me.
This is the only way I could think to stop her.
She found out her mom was in danger and she ran away.
She wants to save her, but we’re at war.
Her brother, my best friend, told me I have to keep her safe.
He trusts me.
Unlike every woman I’ve ever met.
Maybe it’s because I don’t kiss. On the mouth anyway.
But Emily’s the only woman who’s ever stood up to me.
Her thighs keep grazing mine. Her long brown hair tickling my bicep.
Locking her to me and throwing away the key.
I didn’t think this through…

This really revs my engine.

A steamy and unputdownable biker romance, Her Hot Ride will leave you swooning. Guaranteed HEA. No cliffhangers. It can be read as a standalone or as the third book in the Red Dragon biker romance series.

I haven't read the first two books in this series, but this one can be read as a stand alone. It was a little confusing at the beginning since I didn't know the back story.

I did not like Archer at all until about 80%. I'm really surprised I finished it. The whole deal about his mom at the end was unnecessary and not realistic to me at all. Emily wasn't much better.

Oh my!! Bring on the vapors. Heather Van Fleet has arrived with this hottie who was a scorching biker Archer with a purring between his legs that was all due to his bike. And he never kissed. Not on the lips. Not the ones on the face, at least.

I quote a line from the book

A good dicking can do wonders for a woman

Whoa!! That was the bad boy Archer's theory, and he had to babysit his friend's sister Emily, who wanted to cling to her independence. They banged and clashed as they had different viewpoints. Circumstances caused this bad boy to handcuff the hot girl to himself, and they went on a ride along the rocking routes which traveled quite a bit up and down the country.

My first book by Heather Van Fleet, and oh my, could she write the MC lingo well!! The words were raw and blatant. The thoughts clear, they were all about sex. This was a road trip love story which had the main characters getting their romance amongst the adventure and action scenes.

It was wonderful to see Archer sink deep into Emily and her heart. Emily was slightly annoying initially, but she grew on me as Archer grew on her. Their story was a slow burn romance, long as the days and they fell hard for each other. Both Archer and Emily showed the depths in their characters as the story progressed. Emily was bold and Archer lovable.

Action and romance in a MC were well written. Archer was the sweet to Emily's spice in this turbulent journey which was completely a hot ride.

As said before, I need the vapors... Why is is so hot?

A fun read.

Heather Van Fleet has done it once again!

Her Hot Ride is a one of a kind MC romance. If you like swoony males with a chip on there shoulders and some serious alpha pride, you'll love the VP of the Red Dragon MC, Archer!

It should come to no surprise that I am obsessed with Motorcycle Club romances. There's something about a bad boy with a rough exterior finding his better half and watching him fall hopelessly in love. I love everything about this premise and in my mind it never gets old. I love the level of fragility that comes with this sub genre and the level of swoon that authors bring to the pages. There's no doubt about it that MC romances are my top go to reads.

Oh my heart! I went into Her Hot Ride expecting to like it, but holy hell I wasn't expecting to love the hell out of this one. Archer Benedict stole my heart with his bad boy ways and his Irish Charm! I honestly couldn't get enough of this man. I was so sad when this novel ended.

Heather Van Fleet brings even more to the table with Emily and Archer's story. Archer is the VP or the Red Dragon Motorcycle Club. This man has a chip not only on his shoulder but also in his heart. At a young age his mother was murdered and his father turned to the bottle. He found solace within a brotherhood and thus became a member of the RDMC.

After past indiscretions from her mother, Emily is a person that isn't easily trusted within the club. It doesn't matter that one of the club members is her flesh and blood brother. So with all the accusing glances and glares, Emily tends to stay away from the clubhouse and stick to herself. But now that their is a threat on the club's head, Emily's brother has issued a watcher to keep an eye on Emily. That watcher being none other than the VP of the club, Archer.

I loved the attraction between Archer and Emily. It was undeniable that these two have some serious magnetic chemistry. Chemistry that at times had the ability to light my kindle on fire! Those sexy time scenes had me needing to set my kindle to the side and stepping outside for a bit. These two are SEXY AS SIN!!

There's no denying the fact that Her Hot Ride is my new favorite novel in this series. Everything about this novel had me on the edge of my seat. It's a page turner with so many different levels to it. Each chapter brought a new vibe. I felt every emotion while reading this book. There were so many twists and turns, it was hard to find solid ground! But that ending!!! Holy hell Archer definitely stole my heart with his actions and that ending!

Overall, Her Hot Ride was a great addition to the Red Dragon MC Series. I loved the characters, the chemistry, the highs, and the lows. I wasn't ready to say goodbye to Emily and Archer yet... There story was so much fun to read. I can't wait to see what HVF has up her sleeve next!!! I need more RDMC!!!

This series gets better and better with each book. Her Hot Ride is book 3 in the Red Dragon MC series and its Archer and Emily's book. This story is an unpredictable ride that throws in a few twists and turns when you least expect it. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

First, lets talk about this cover. There are hundreds of bare-chested covers for us to drool over, but there’s something about this one that just calls to me. It could be that it captures Archer perfectly. It could be the model’s expression, which cries out with the sadness and pain that Archer keeps buried. It might be the hair or the tattoos, but I freaking love the cover.

I also love the book. From the moment he graced the pages of Her Wild Ride, I knew that Archer was the Red Dragon for me. Thankfully, he didn’t disappoint and his character was exactly how I pictured him.

Like books one and two, Her Hot Ride is a road trip romance. Emily Lattimore was tagged as trouble by Archer the day he met her and a few years later she’s proven him right. Determined to save her mother who has run off with her dad, a rouge Red Dragon, Emily sneaks away from the RD compound but doesn’t get far before Archer finds her. With reasons of his own, Archer handcuffs Emily to him and they set off to find Pops and his minions.

Her Hot Ride is my favorite book in this series and for good reasons. Everything clicked from the romance to the Sons of Anarchy-type action scenes. Heather Van Fleet has treated her characters to some off the wall adventures, but Archer and Emily’s felt the most real. Like all road trip romances it’s the adventures that move the story and romance forward. Archer and Emily’s was fluid and led to a nice slow burn (though there was room for the outrageous as well).

Character wise, Emily needed a pinch or two to wake up to reality, but I loved how she gave as good as she got with Archer. Archer…well you know how I feel about him. I really enjoyed watching him open up to Emily and accept that love wasn’t a curse. He’s also sporting an Irish accent that made me swoon. Her Hot Ride is also a “enemies to lovers” romance and I loved that dynamic. Van Fleet doesn’t rush this; instead we see Archer and Emily slowly come to the realization that they belong together.

Her Hot Ride can be read as a standalone, but I definitely recommend reading Her Wild Ride and Her Rough Ride to understand the more suspenseful moments in the book.

4.5 stars for Her Hot Ride. Heat level: 3.5

Who to Trust

Archer was VP of the Red Dragons MC and lived his life with whiskey and monthlies. He didn’t believe in love and surely not anything to do with his best friend’s sister, Emily. With Pops causing trouble and the Red Dragons on alert Emily was brought to the club for her own protection against her father.

Archer was put on babysitting duty but Emily gave him a run for it especially when she left trying to get to her mom who had actually left the Red Dragons when Pops took off to form his own rouge MC. She felt she had to talk her mom into running away from Pops especially with the Red Dragons ready to take Pops and his men down before they got to them.

There were big surprises for Archer as he was running with Emily. It was fun hearing the banter between Emily and Archer as well and this thing they kept fighting. Once I started this book I couldn’t put it down.

•••••••••

REVIEW: HER HOT RIDE is the third instalment in Heather Van Fleet’s contemporary, adult RED DRAGON MC erotic, MC romance series focusing on the Red Dragon MC. This is Red Dragon MC vice president Archer Benedict, and middle school science teacher Emily Lincoln’s story line. HER HOT RIDE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for backstory as it pertains to Emily, and her connection to the Red Dragon MC.

NOTE: HER HOT RIDE contains scenes of violence that may not be suitable for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives ( Emily and Archer) HER HOT RIDE follows the acrimonious relationship between Red Dragon MC vice president Archer Benedict, and middle school science teacher Emily Lincoln. Emily Lincoln is the sister of Red Dragon member Niyol ‘Hawk’ Lattimore, and daughter of former Red Dragon gone rogue Charles Lattimore and Lisa Lincoln but Emily’s life is in danger, and the Red Dragon MC is reluctantly protecting Emily in the face of Charles and Lisa’s betrayal. Her only option is to escape but Emily finds herself on the run with club VP Archer Benedict, as she battles between head and heart hoping to rescue her mother from her father’s wrath. What ensues is the cross country journey and building relationship between Emily and Archer, and the potential fall-out as betrayal and lies threaten to destroy Emily and everyone she loves.

Archer Benedict doesn’t do relationships and struggles with his attraction to a woman who despises everything about the MC lifestyle but Emily Lincoln is considered an enemy and a threat since the disappearance and betrayal of her mother Lisa Lincoln. Emily has been blinded by her mother’s desperate attempts to bring together their dysfunctional family. Believing her mother is trapped in an abusive relationship, Emily makes it her mission to rescue a woman who doesn’t want to be rescued, at all. But for all intents and purposes, Emily is a little bit TSTL (too stupid to live) knowing she is placing herself and everyone in danger in an effort to rescue a woman who has betrayed everyone she knows.

The relationship between Archer and Emily is tempestuous and acerbic. Archer is constantly making digs and sexual innuendo yet battles his attraction to a woman who is hoping for something more. Emily knows that to get involved with a member of the Red Dragon’s MC mean her life will no longer be her own but life on the run with Archer Benedict has opened her eyes to the possibility of her own happily ever after. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

We are reintroduced to Summer Parks, and Niyol ‘Hawk’ Lattimore (Her Wild Ride #1), Sebastian ‘Slade’ Lattimore, and tattoo artist Maya Davenport (Her Rough Ride #2); Lisa Lincoln and Charles ‘Pops’ Lattimore, as well as Red Dragon Members Flick, Chop, and the introduction of Angel and Anne.

The world building continues to focus on the dangerous and destructive life of the Red Dragon MC. Secrets and lies, betrayal and revenge are but a small part daily their daily struggles not including rivals MC, or threats from other sources.

HER HOT RIDE is a story of family and blood; betrayal and vengeance; acceptance and love. The character driven premise is raw and gritty; the characters are energetic and colorful; the romance is hot, spicy and heavy. HER HOT RIDE is an engaging and gripping look inside the lives of the Red Dragon MC.

This is the story of Archer. He is now to babysit Emily who is Niyol's sister. Emily from the first book has lost her fiancé which really is not a big deal but to her it is. She also has lost her mother who took off with her father who is the one after everyone in the club. She has been receiving letters from her from months but has not told anyone.
One night when there is an explosion, she receives another one with instructions to meet. Leaving that night, she thinks she has gotten away only to be found by Archer. Instead of taking her back he decides to take her where she is to go and to put an end to all of this once and for all.
What ends up happening is a face-paced exciting story that has many twists and turns and not just between the two of them. Archer finds out a lot from his past which started in Ireland and you really get a good story with him. Emily is faced with a reality as well only in a different direction and she also sees that she really belongs to Archer, not that prick she thought she should have married in book one. Overall this was an outstanding book really enjoyed it and all of the characters. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 5 stars. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com

I've been waiting for Emily and Archer's story, and it was well worth the wait. I've loved Archer since the first book, and I couldn't wait to get to know him. He's a smart-mouthed, sexy beast, and that clashed so hard with Emily's sometimes prudish exterior.
This was a great story with plenty of heat. There was this scene in a caboose--damn y'all! Sizzling Hot! And then… in the barn... well, I don't want to give it away, so, let's just say, you don't want to miss this one!
I wasn't sure what to expect with the ending, the author kept me guessing, but in the end, the happily ever after was well worth the suspense. I loved every minute of this book, and dare I say it's my favorite of the series. You can't go wrong with any of the books in this series. They're all standalones, but they're also so freaking great when read in order. It's worth it too, why would you want to miss one minute of the Red Dragon MC world?

The men of the Red Dragon MC get hotter and hotter with each book the author releases. I swear, Archer will melt your socks off! In this 3rd installment of the Red Dragon series, we get to spend more time with Archer and Emily, the sister of Archer's BFF (and Book 1 bad boy) Niyol. Emily has been through the ringer with her ex and is tired of being under the club's thumb. Archer is tasked with protecting Emily while the club continues to search for the men who are out to destroy them. Adventure and drama ensues and eventually Archer and Emily find themselves handcuffed together so Archer can drag her back to the club's compound. I'm sure you all can guess how FANTASTIC the slow burn between these two is but let me just tell you...it's so so so so good!! Honestly, I couldn't put the book down because I just HAD to know what was going to happen with every turn of the page. It's emotional, it's dramatic, it's romantic in its own way. Warning - I fell for Archer hard and quick, so be ready!

THIRD TIME IS THE CHARM! Asher and Emily’s story is my absolute favorite. Yes, the other 2 are really good stories but Her Hot Ride brings it with all, the dirt and grime that I LOVE!

We finally dive into Pops and his evil manipulative ways. And Emily’s mother, whom I just want to take out and not for brunch. I was not a fan of her in the other books and this one just put the last nail in the coffin for her. Bye Felicia!

The suspense, the angst, the banter, the dirtiness and the grittiness of this book is just outstanding. So many times I wanted to just grab Emily and just shake her. GAHHH!! Such a frustrating woman at times. But I would have to stop myself and put myself in her shoes and yeah okay I may have done the same thing as Emily. And then I would have probably slapped my mother in the end (even though Emily doesn’t, that would have been me) HA! Asher, on the other hand, is a freaking hot tamale! Just look at the cover and then read this book with that picture in your head. Need I say more?

The layers just in this book alone has me sold on Heather Van Fleet. Will be definitely be reading more by her. This is definitely worth the one-click.

The war with Pops continues to be the main backdrop in this author’s Red Dragon MC series. This time up, it’s Archer and Emily, and the sparks fly (this is something the author is particularly good at conveying). I liked reading how Emily’s part in the war morphed, and I enjoyed watching her test Archer’s gruff exterior. I always look forward to each installment of this series and hope there are more to come.

OMG! This is a book with a capital B! 

I thoroughly enjoyed the 2 previous parts but this one is, in my opinion the most beautiful. It has so many raw emotions that it pulled my heartstrings so hard they were on the verge of breaking.

It's true that bikers often have a bad reputation, but it's also important here to not judge a book by its cover. I admit they might scare you because of the way they look, but when you dig a little deeper, you might be surprised by what you will find under that rough layer. They fight for their 'family' through thick and thin.

Loyalty is very important, but when someone threatens the people you most care about, you are caught between a rock and a hard place.

Even under the gruffest exterior you might discover a vulnerable beating heart ...

The story had me under its spell and the author captures the spirit of the characters perfectly. 5 stars without the slightest doubt.

Thank you, Heather Van Fleet and Bookouture

This is the third book in the series, and I have been waiting for Archers story since the very beginning. I have to say that I hate the manwhore bits but it is an MC book and I have to be realistic about it. I didn't like Emily, not since the very first book, I hated how she treated her brothers and the MC when they were protecting her and her supposed best friend. I get that you are confused and hurt but take a chill pill and grow the hell up. So I like Archer and the others and had it not been for them I would not have enjoyed this book because she annoyed the hell out of me. All in all I did continue and was happy I did because I got to know what happened with the rest of the crew...

Damn i love this series so much! Every book seems to get better and better everytime!
I absolutely loved Archer, he kinda reminded me of myself since he was so witty and took nothing seriously, always quick to have a joke at some inappropriate times.
Emily i liked too! At first i pegged her wrong i thought she was stuck up but the more you get to know her she has her reasons for what she does.
I loved seeing Niyol and Summer again and Slade! I always love seeing previous characters to see how their getting on after their book is finished!
I look forward to seeing if we'll get more books! I'd love to see more of Archer and Emily even if it is just in passing!

I was initially hesitant to read this book, due to the whole "I don't kiss on the mouth" thing in the book synopsis. Plus, he's literally just slept with another woman and talks about all the women he sleeps with in the first page. Usually this signals to me that the book will be all about sex, there may be some slut shaming and infidelity going on, and it becomes a DNF book. However, I absolutely loved the second book in this series and though I should give this a go. I'm glad I did! It was not at all what I expected and had so much depth to the characters. Yes, sex was a big part of the book, but more importantly, the book centered around looking past the exterior to learning more about the person within. It was really a very memorable book and surpassed my 4-star rating of the second book - Her Hot Ride is a solid 5-star read!

Archer Benedict can't stand Emily Lincoln, the sister of his "brother", Hawk. She's annoying, refuses to hang with the club members, and is generally considered a pain to be around. But her independent streak could put her in danger, and Hawk asks Archer to watch over her. Emily can't stand Archer either, ever since he called her the "hot version of a table" five years ago. After her father betrayed the club and took off with her mother at his side, Emily just wants to save her mother from the abusive relationship. But with Archer watching her every move, fat chance that's going to happen. A distraction that allows her to slip away results in them being handcuffed together, and with such close proximity, sparks are bound to fly. They may realize that there is a thin line between hate and love.

Archer and Emily were, quite simply, perfect for each other. They balanced each other out a bit - Archer reminding Emily to relax and enjoy life, and Emily reminding Archer that there is goodness in loving another person. Archer had such a sad past and it was amazing to see his carefree, tough guy exterior break down as Emily opened him up to the possibilities of a different life where he didn't have to be so alone. Sure, he had the club who acted as his family, but he figured the whole concept of love was dangerous and not for him. Emily showed him otherwise. By the time they fell for each other, their relationship had developed into something that bound them together. Almost like soulmates. And the way their lives became entwined even more, towards the end of the book? Even better.

Heather Van Fleet is fast becoming one of my favorite authors, and she is pulling me into the MC romance world. Can't wait to see what's next!

**I received a copy of Her Hot Ride from Net Galley and Bookouture in exchange for a voluntary and honest review. My opinions are mine alone and voluntary.**

Her Hot Ride: Red Dragon MC series book 3 by Heather Van Fleet I highly recommend that these be read in order as their is a continuing story line between the Red Dragon MC and Pops and the Rogues who have become his followers.

This is Archer Benedict and Emily Lattimore story with a MC road trip, handcuffs, secrets and a big reveal for both characters. Plus you have a climatic ending that feels slightly like there could be another book. Both Emily and Archer have ghosts that need to be resolved one way or another.

Emily Lattimore has a secret that she's been keeping from her brother and the Red Dragons, she knows where her mom is with the RD's enemy Pop's and she determined to do anything to find her. But she have to figure out a way to escape Archer who is her new body guard. However Archer has his own reasons for leaving the compound and finding Pop's but is he willing to sacrifice his own life while keeping Emily safe?

Archer knows that by finding Pop's including revenge for his dad's death but he didn't count on Emily trying to escape every time. Once they get closer to Kentucky there will be a flood, betrayal from one of the RD's that will lead to finding someone he thought he'd lost and another family member who'll protect Emily with their life while they escape. But falling in love with Emily isn't part of the plan or is it?

I found this book to be mesmerizing and engaging. I found Archer to be not the most likable at first but he redeemed himself at the end. The scenario with his mom was just filler in my opinion but did not deter from the story. Emily I found to be pretentious at best and spiteful at least. She really made me want to throw my kindle throughout this story but I find that at the end I get where she was coming from and honestly I found that I really liked her at the end. These two really had me going throughout this story and I am glad I read this book.

This is my first foray into Heather’s books and it will not be my last. I love the enemies to lovers (or best friend’s sister, both fit) trope and boy was there sexual tension to melt your panties off. The dialog was perfect. I love lots of smart and funny dialog and you get it in this story. I guessed who was the traitor but how it played out in the end was a surprise. Archer and Emily were a great couple. Keeping this author on my watchlist.

Her Hot Ride is book three in Heather Van Fleet’s Red Dragon MC series and it only gets better with every new instalment. Archer and Emily's story is packed with exceptional world building, an intriguing plot and a few twists and turns along the way. I was captured by the character depictions and the relationship between Archer and Emily was fuelled by a combustible attraction that will leave you breathless. There’s’ so much to like about this book, that I hated to see it end.

*I received this book as a gift in exchange for my honest opinion.

WOW!!!!! What a third installment to an already captivating series!!!!

Although this could be read as a standalone, I don't recommend it. There are too many things and/or issues mentioned within this book that you'll understand and relate to better if you follow the series in it's order. Trust me. You'll love each and every one of them.

Archer is the VP of the Red Dragon MC. He's the pretty boy who loves 'em and leaves 'em, not committing to anyone or anything except his brothers. He's also REALLY good at reading people, figuring them out and finding out what they're hiding. So when his best friend asks him to babysit his sister who is doing everything in her power to NOT stay put, he of course agrees. But he wasn't prepared for her or the ride she takes him on.

Emily is the baby sister who needs to be watched. Why? Because ever since her mom took off with her father (the former president of the RD), she's been thrust in to the MC lifestyle that she's been trying desperately to escape for years. Feeling completely trapped and claustrophobic, leaving the club life is high on her list. Add in the fact that she's keeping a secret, leaving couldn't come soon enough. That is until her escape doesn't go as planned.

If you've read the previous books in this series, then you know that by picking up this book, you're going to be in for a treat. You'll not only be taken on a ride, but an adventure that has as many ups as downs. The relationship that's built between Archer and Emily is heartfelt and everything you could imagine in an HEA, but the continued war between the MC's brings another level of excitement that pulls you in even more than the love story. Actually, now that I think about it, the author did a fantastic job mixing the two very well.

Is this the last book in this series? I REALLY hope not!!!! I wonder if there may be a spinoff of sort? Hmmmmm.........

This is the third book in the Red Dragon's MC series. It doesn't matter if you haven't read the first two books. Characters from those books are mentioned and to be honest, the whole series is good, so why wouldn't you? This time troubled Emily, best friend to Summer and sister to Hawk, who appeared in the first book is the main female character. She is desperate to find her mother and save her from her Dad, who was at one time the club president but who is now, to put it mildly, a bad lot.
No one int he club seems to trust her and she is determined to leave them. Archer has been given the task to keep an eye on her, they've got on each others nerves since they very first met, but the more time that they spend together, the clearer it becomes that there's something else between them.
When Emily runs away, Archer gives chase and goes with her on her cross country treck to find her father and mother. The more time that they spend together, the more that the feelings and chemistry between them begin to grow.
I'm really enjoying this series and I hope that there's more to come. Emily and Archer made a great couple. They both have problems, but it soon becomes clear that they are quite alike in many ways and together they make sense. There was great chemistry between them and I really enjoyed reading about them.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

After I read Heather Van Fleet’s HER HOT RIDE, I had to sit in front of a fan, because Oh My God, Archer Benedict is nothing but heat and fire, mixed with an Irish brogue.

Smart, cute, seemingly prudish Emily Lincoln annoys the Red Dragons VP, Archer. He’s not into relationships or love, and she’s not into bikers. He wears a leather cut and she wears cardigans. But when Emily finds herself in the middle of a Red Dragon MC Club mess, Archer ends up being the clean-up man. In the process of finding out the truth about Emily, Archer’s role changes and he becomes Emily’s protector.

It wouldn’t be a Van Fleet romance if sparks didn’t start smoldering and flying, and of course, they do right out of the gate! As Emily and Archer set forth on their adventure to take down the club’s enemies and save Emily’s mother-- an adventure that includes handcuffs, a barn, a train caboose, and of course, a motorcycle-- these two realize that they’d underestimated each other. Emily has more spark than Archer had imagined, and Archer has more heart than Emily had given him credit for.

I loved both the MC and the romantic plots of HER HOT RIDE. I kept swiping through my Kindle to see how Archer and Emily would navigate themselves out of the mess they’d found themselves in, as well as to witness how they'd finally come to their happily ever after. I finished the book in a day.

I’ve devoured the entire Red Dragon MC saga, but HER HOT RIDE, and Archer, may be my favorite book and hero in the series (note: HER HOT RIDE can be read as a standalone, too). Be sure to grab HER HOT RIDE if you’re a contemporary romance fan who loves a steamy story with an adventurous plot (but be forewarned, Archer is my book boyfriend -- I've claimed him :) )!

Book three in the Red Dragon MC, Her Hot Ride, is Archer and Emily's story. A well delivered story, with intrigue, twist and turn and dynamic characters. I really enjoyed this one and am sure you will too

I am usually not interested in biker romance but this book was great. While the book starts off with Archer being a stereotypical biker, his character quickly develops and you can see the deeper side of him and why he chooses the MC life at all. The chemistry between Emily and Archer is so hot and steamy that by the time they actually get together, you're so built up and can't wait for it to happen. Great twist at the end too, didn't see it coming. Don't worry if you didn't read the other books, I didn't and still felt very connected to the story.

I received a free ARC from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion. All thoughts are my own.

Well that didn't turn out the way I expected. And that's a good thing. The ending isn't completely predictable.

You have to love Emily's devotion to her mother. Question it sure but it is a sign of character. Some might say naivete. She's determined to keep herself apart from the Red Dragons and save her mom from the monster that is her father. Archer can't let her get in the middle of the long brewing feud between her dad and the club.

There are tons of twists and secrets to this story. It's onion-like!

Emily and Archer are great, the suspense is intense, and the plot, as mentioned, full of unexpected twists. Fans of MC and general romance will find plenty to enjoy.

'Her Hot Ride (Red Dragon MC Series Book 3)' was the first ever book that I had requested for the cover alone.

TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Archer is this**close to bumping into my top-5 of all-time favorite book boyfriends. He's that hawt!

Thank you to NetGalley, Bookouture, and Heather Van Fleet for an ARC of 'Her Hot Ride (Red Dragon MC Series Book 3)' in exchange for an honest and voluntary review.

The man has no shame, “this is like a grandma’s closet. Don’t you own anything that’s not a turtleneck or a cardigan? It’s summer, for eff's sake.” Archer is a typical man, "I’m a man. You put food in front of me, I eat it.” The man is always willing to help his woman out “it’s a fantastic ***. I’ll gladly help you wash it next time you’re in the shower.” I liked this book, I liked Archer.
