Most people see me as the smart, nerdy girl scared of her own shadow. But what I am, is a woman sick of watching the powerful prey on the powerless and I have zero guilt tipping those scales in the other direction.

I point my finger on a map, make my self at home, and set my sights on my next target. Only, what I don’t anticipate when I roll into my next town, is Chain Jackson. He doesn’t take kindly to my scam and before I know it, I’m locked in a room with the crew of the Heartlands Motorcycle Club outside my door deciding my fate.

You’d think being kidnapped and having your life threatened would be a low point. Instead, when the door closes and it’s just me and Chain? It’s all high points, and I have to decide whether to come clean or plan my escape.
Problem is, if I stay, I may lose my life. If I leave, I will lose my heart.

Author’s Note: This curvy grifter may have met her match. The treasurer of the Heartlands MC may look rough around the edges but between the ears he’s no slouch. And between the legs? He’s packing more horsepower than is legal. These two may want to kill each other at first, but that doesn’t last. It’s over the top, safe with love at zero to sixty in the blink of an eye.

The alpha males of Heartlands Motorcycle Club are the most possessive, devoted, and territorial men in the country when it comes to the ones they love.

Heartlands is a rough and rugged new series of standalone stories. Written by four of the most trusted names in short and steamy romance, each book will get your motors revved and your hearts racing. Guaranteed.

Since I was a little girl, I’ve made up stories. I would lay in my bed at night and before I knew what a trope was, I would make up these trope filled stories. Boy sees girl, boys falls for girl, boy saves girl….happily ever after. As I got older, the stories turned steamier and more intricate, but the basics never changed.

Now, my books are still full of romance but the naughty bits are naughtier, my hero’s are obsessed alpha types and my heroines are quirky, real women who come in all shapes and sizes.

So, sit back, banish the real world and get lost in some over the top romance with a heaping helping of hot. xoxoxo

The 2nd book in this series of authors and it was good i enjoyed it and it was pretty steamy.

Meadow is in deep.. she con the wrong MC and was caught. Now zipped tied and left in the dark she is waiting and seeing what shall happen, is she dead or can she do another con to get free. She meets Chain the treasure of the club and the one who is in charge of her. They start off on a rocky start but their is a connection and a flirtly banter between the two plus she honest with him about her name and what she does. Now shes chained to him and has to work on getting on the clubs good side.

The chemistry was good between the two even if she tried to rob the club Chain would do anything to protect her, as for Meadow shes making sure the club gets their money and some. But their is a tiny problem a past con comes back. Now the chain needs to keep his girl safe.

Only thing i disliked was he had a chain/leash around her neck it wasnt my thing. :/

No ow/om, No cheating, Tiny drama, secondary charas, sexy times, no virgins

Chain and Meadow

Meadow gets herself in quite a pickle. Meadow is a con artist. Usually she picks better marks. Fortunately for her , Chain takes an immediate liking to her. Super steamy and full of action! Great HEA and epilogues. Can’t wait for the other stories in this series.

This book was so horrible!!! Please understand that nothing done in this book was ok I finished it because in reality I was hoping that maybe it was going to change but I go back to think about how chain treated Meadow and it was beyond horrific

If your into the whole collar and chained like an animal thing then listen to each it’s own but it was horrible for me


I felt that even though she enjoyed the sex it was practically rape and then him slapping her across her body was not ok for me a little spanking ok a little rough ok but this man literally slaps her and knows she’s in pain I know a lot of people find that that’s their kink but omg


And please let’s mention the fact that he tells her that he’s going to go in her raw without a condom As punishment like what??? She had only known him 3 fucking days!!!

Oh man this book was not ok and I am NOT reading any more of these books I fee so disappointed 😔


Stay safe my lovely bookworms

Cuando encuentra a esa delicada chica cometiendo un crimen a si club de moteros sabe que como tesorero tiene que aplicar la justicia para los que han llegado a ser su familia.

Pero la atracción que siente por esa chica no lo deja tomar una desición.

Ella por su parte, siempre toma de los que son gente despreciable una especie de justiciero moderno quitar a los ricos y malos y gastarlo ella, aunque no que menos espera encontrar en ese club es una familia todo lo que le quitaron hace años, cuando su último crimen vuelve por ella es hora de pedir ayuda y de dejarse ayudar.
Sabe que Chain no dejará que le toquen ni un solo cabello.

Wanted a quick and steamy short read and this was perfect! I can always count on this author to give me the best palate cleanse… short drama free romance. 🥰 plus I really liked this couple❤️ it starts off a bit different than your usual sweet love-at-first-sight story since the FMC was caught with her hand in the safe at Heartland MC. Most people would be dead but they chain her up in the basement to get some answers. She has no fear and is very bold and sassy so I loved it!

Meadow and Chain.
Five Stars .

I normally hate heroine being a thief, but this heroine was different, she was not some kind of normal “thief”.

Meadow’s father was an Astro-physicist by education and her mother had a PhD in computational mathematics from UC Berkeley. And she was FREAKING brilliant and intelligent, and she knew how to make money make more money with her talents and con artist. She was FUUUUCKING attractive when she was using her talents negotiating. 😍😍😍

I taught myself simple cons at first.  Taking from assholes and bullies mostly then working my way up to bigger fish and better change.  It’s been three years and it’s become my life.  I don’t feel good about it, but I certainly don’t feel bad.

I knew it was wrong to be a thief, so I hate most of thief kind of heroine, but this heroine was not some stupid and annoying brat.

And

Yesss,

she was caught when she just opened Motorcycles Club’s safety chest one day. Hahahahaha, but when I read continually I found out heroine was brave, bold and likeable. Her parents are dead, and after that she lived by herself through her con tactics for a living. She helped poor people and animals with the money she conned from rich jerks. And then she caught by Chain and other buddies when she was opening their club’s safety chest.😆😆😆😂😂😂

A few minutes later, she’s got a slick MacBook open and I’m staring at the most organized spreadsheet from a con artist I’ve ever seen.

“See, here’s the utility con. It’s not my best, but for clubs and bars it works well most of the time. I list the take here, what expenses I deduct. Then, on this sheet...”

She clicks a couple times, and there’s another Excel sheet where she points to a six-figure number at the bottom.

“So, over time, after investing, this is what the utility work has generated—less what I’ve paid out, given away or whatever. I guess what I can do, is help you guys invest. You’re the treasurer, why did they choose you?”
I shake my head, but tell her.

“My dad was the treasurer. Taught me from when I was about ten how it worked. What the different streams of revenue generated. Things were different, though, back then they were into some stuff that the club is easing out of. They had prostitutes; we don’t do that. Drugs.” I shrug. “Weed is legal now, and that’s about the only product we really kept running. We’re looking for some other revenue streams. More legit.”

She bites into her bottom lip. “I could help your money make money. If that will help, I’ll get it set up, show you what I do. If it will buy my way out of this...” She tugs on the collar.

“That was the deal.”

She smiles and I see the sweet angel in her face, but I also see the hardened woman who’s not had a life of ease, and I want to change that. For whatever crazy reason, this little felon has possessive instincts I didn’t know I had rising up and taking over, thawing out the usual cool distance I keep with most people.


Just like the previous book of this series, hero was one of the motorcycles club, and he was hot and sexy and tough. So when he wanted to punish her, she convinced him, and then they finally get on agreement and made a deal, a deal they both satisfied, along with his punishment to her, which was spicy and hot hahahaha.😅😅😅😍😍😍

I knew I wanted her.
I knew I was going to toy with her.

Deep down, I knew that would never be enough.

Standing here, looking at her juicy, ripe pussy...her scent and taste all over me. This is more than a toy.

More than fun.

This is forever. I’ve never felt that before, but it’s rooted so far down inside me, no matter what she thinks or how far she tries to run, I’ll track her ass down and drag her back here until she understands.

This is home.
I’m her home.

She’s mine and even if I have to keep her in that fucking dungeon until she comes to terms with that fact, she will come to terms.
No one will touch her again. I’m an asshole.


Chain was obsessed with her since he firstly laid his eyes to this woman, she should be punished and sent to the cops, but he didn’t, because he falled for her very deeply and extremely hard.

“I’ve been doing this a long time,” I explain, “but I wasn’t always a thief. I had an interesting childhood, kind of home-schooled in a way. My parents taught me skills more than facts, and one of those skills was how to turn money into more money.”

Their story was more and more interesting until the last words of the book. I didn’t expect it was so much fun to read this one. I am ABSOLUTELY falling in love with them. Chain was crazy in love with with her and was insane captivated by her beauty, her spirits and her brilliant mind. They were stronger when they solving problems together. (HIGHLY RECOMMEND to read the whole story, I don’t want to spoil more~~🥹🥹🥹)

He gathers me into his arms, then frowns. “I think I should remove this,” he says, pulling on the collar, but I shake my head.

“Leave it. I like belonging to you. I like knowing that you’re protecting me and keeping me safe. That collar reminds me that I’m yours. It’s our thing.” I lift myself up, wrapping my legs around his waist, knowing that he can take my weight with ease. “I love you.”

“I love you too, baby. And I always will.”


I now fall in love with the whole family of Motorcycle’s Club. Couldn’t wait to read the third one, if the plots were as interesting ass this one.!!!!

“You know.  That first moment I walked in that room and saw you on that mattress?”

“Yeah?”

“I knew I’d marry you.  I knew we’d have this.”

“What didn’t you know?”

He shrugs. “I didn’t know we’d end up with a bank account sporting a couple commas, even when we give away nearly half of what we make.”

“We are blessed.”

He nods.  My hard ass biker, looking a little misty.


Epilogue was ten years later.

Meadow helped his man and their big wonderful family gain a terrible numbers of money with her talent and Chain still was stunned with the numbers on their bank account ten years later, which was hilarious and funny 🤣🤣🤣

I love it SOOOO MUCH!!!!♥️♥️♥️🥹🥹🥹

WOW!
Meadow was something else. A Robin Hood type if you will. After a traumatic event occurred. She took her future into her own hands and never let anyone or anything stop her.
Now her latest job had her in a bind she was caught with her hands in the cookie jar. Now what would happen to her next.
Now Chain just could not believe what was before him. A Siren that made him lose his mind. Oh he new she was a con artist but she intrigued him. So he gave her a little leeway but she would learn he was in control and she would learn to like it.
Now what would happen with these two? Would they lose their hearts or minds first? Read to find out you will not be disappointed.

Wow that story was freaking hot 🔥 but sweet as heck as well. Freaking loved how Chain dominated his woman but was kind and sweet as well. This story had everything it, steamy parts, romance, sweetness and a bit of action. Instant love and a HEA. Can't get better. Awesome second book of a new series. I totally love that the MC isn't the hardened type that disrespects women. Their like a family that protects each other. Can't wait for the next book😍😍😍😍

The attitude of the whole MC was completely different than the first book. Not a fan of this version. Willing to kill, repeatedly calling women derogatory names and happily using a collar & leash on the h.

Chain is an immediate goner lol. She’s literally being held prisoner by his club and he’s over here worrying about whether she likes crusts on her sandwiches or not lollllll. Adorable.

Half an hour later, I’m heading back down to the cellar with a bandage wrapped around my knuckles from punching the wall and a cheese sandwich on a plate. I didn’t know if she eats the crusts, so I cut them off just in case, and I emptied a bag of chips on the side and put an apple there as well.

Meadow is kind of a self assigned robin hood. She cons money from bad people. Except things don’t go as planned when she picks an MC as her next target, assuming they’re bad news. They were gonna unalive her but Chain steps in bc he’s taken with her. He chains her up w a collar tho 💀. It turns into their kink.

Story was alright, spice was decent. My favorite moments were when big tough biker Chain was a softie. *SPOILERS* Like when he’s mother henning over his kids, worried when they’ve been away from them for just a couple hours on a date lol. He’s like should I call the kids? I worry. Yeah I’m gonna call them. lol. Such a marshmallow. But only in that one scene in the epilogue.

h o t  c l i p s:

“Good girl.” He seethes, still gripping his cock as he licks his lips and stares at my pussy.

♥︎

“Use your words, good girl. Or no cock for you.”

“Please.” She moans, pulling at her tied hands.

♥︎

I lean back just enough to see my dick slick, her opening obscene as it stretches around me, her lips riding up and down my shaft.

♥︎

“Fuck, yes.” I groan as my dick fills her throat.

Fabulous, absolutely love this one. A nice quick short read.

Chain meets Meadow when she tries to steal from the club. The Heartlands MC put her in the basement of the club, tying her hands together. Chain takes care of her by feeding her and getting her side of the story. Meadow had to safe opened and was stealing from the Harttland MC. Chain takes Meadow home to his house and gets her clean up. When the MC have church Meadow is saved by one vote. Chain takes her to the clubhouse so she can show them how to add zeros to their bank account. When they head to another MC clubhouse Meadow recognizes a few guys that come walking into the bar. She tells Chain how much she stole from them and why. He walks over to them and gets in their face, pretty soon all fist are flying. Meadow gets kidnapped and Chain chases after her. Chain gets Meadow back, and they both insist the guys pay back the money they stole plus interest. When they get to back to the clubhouse, they have church and it’s an unanimous vote to let her stay. Two months later, Meadow is pregnant and Chain is letting her have her first solo ride. Ten years later, Chain takes Meadow to a cabin to celebrate their anniversary. They have seven kids and are working on number eight.

First things first; I love the cover of this book!
Chain is book two in the ‘’heartlands MC’’ series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Meadow Greene is a modern day robin hood. She robs from the greedy and helps the needy. When her latest mark ends with her caught, she is wary. Chain is the treasurer of the heartlands MC. He and his brothers are angry at catching the thief red handed. Whilst his brothers are angry and want the girl gone, Chain feels and attraction towards her. Will he get his girl and will he be able to keep her safe?
The chemistry between Chain and Meadow is clear to see and I liked them as a couple. The sexual chemistry between them was through the roof.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

. Dani Wyatt pens the second book in the Heartlands MC series. She focuses this book on the romantic journey of Theodore “Chain” Jackson and Meadow Green. Chain, the MC treasurer. Meadow is a con artist and scams criminals from their ill-gotten gains and redistributes the loot to the victims. She is a modern day female Robinhood. The MC catches her in the act of taking money out of their safe. They hold her and decide to interrogate her. They need to ascertain who she is working for and why she selected them as a target. Meadow is unaware that the Heartlands are a legitimate MC. Chain is called in as part of the interrogation and is immediately attracted to her. He assumes the lead and makes her his personal prisoner. Meadow is attracted to Chain as well. She is a genius at taking the funds, investing them, and making a mint. What happens to Meadow? Will she confess to Chain? How do they handle their feelings? Will they find romance? Can they find happiness? To find out what unfolds you must read this book.

Ms. Wyatt does a remarkable job with this character-driven romantic plot line. As this story progress readers follow Chain and Meadow’s romantic journey. I enjoy how she uses literary devices such as dialog, descriptive language and dual POV to reveal their true personalities. This book is beautifully written. Well done, Ms. Wyatt.

What a Great MC read!! This one had everything I needed! The obsessed possessive alpha biker, and the sassy, tough as nails, nothing but trouble woman.

Meadow has been through so much in her short life and has been on her own for some time. Never picturing herself settling down, thinking she would be the Nomad that her parents were. She never saw Chain coming.

Chain new as soon as he saw her that this feisty little piece of trouble was meant to be his, and he would do whatever it takes to keep and protect her.

This one was a pager turner from beginning to end. I didn’t want it to end! Love Dani and all of her words and I can’t wait for her next release!!

Meadow was told she had a talent for getting into trouble .. but what would u expect when u get caught stealing from a mc... meadow starts to feel safe with her one captor.. starts questioning herself why she doesnt hate him
Chain has become her captor and her lifeline, her savior..even though they both know its wrong it's hard to fight the attraction , the pull between the two is to strong. Chain cant get enough of her quick whitt and saucy mouth.. Weadow has finally found a place were she belongs, where others look out for her.
Great read, sexy and hot..

MC books aren’t really my thing but I’m tired of reading the same stories so I’m giving this series a try.

I did enjoy the book. It was well written and the sex was pretty hot. But men who would lock a woman up in a basement and threaten to cut off her fingers or murder her and have votes on if they should do it, aren’t my idea of a fantasy man. Might have to go back to my blue collar/mountain man/fireman books. Hard working honest men who would never throw a zip-tied woman in the basement to pee in a bucket and wonder if she’s going to die. But ya-know, that’s just me.

This grifter stole his heart!!

Meadow is a grifter and according to her she takes from the takers. But when she sets her sights on the Heartlands MC, she gets way more than she bargained for. She tries to hustle them and now they want payback, but the second Chain lays eyes on her he knows she's his and now he has to figure out how to appease his club and keep his woman. This is a great read and I highly recommend it!

Loved this book!!

When Meadow tried to steal from the Heartlands MC she thought she was taking from the bad guys to give to those who need it. Problem with that, they aren't the bad guys. You would never know that by how Chain treated her but he had his reasons. He's pretty rough and tough. It's really a good book. You'll have to read it to understand. Wild. Enjoy. Written by Cindy :)

Chain and Meadow may not see eye to eye, but they wear each other down until they're both in a puddle of want. Meadow gets caught from stealing from the local MC club and Chain is the one in charge of the little thief. His feelings towards her change the way he's supposed to handle things, but everything turns out well for everyone in the end. Loving this series.

Great book!

This one is a little more hardcore than the first. Chain is an over the top alpha male and he is rough in the bedroom. Meadow is caught stealing from the MC and Chain punishes her. I liked both characters. Meadow is a Robin Hood type person, though I wish she told us how she made all her money. ;) Sweet ending.

Ok.

I feel like the author tried too hard to make this a rough and raw motorcycle club romance. I think I would have liked it more if she had just kept it as an instalove in an MC. Loved the character and the epilogues, though.
