★★From Alexis Ashlie, Amazon Best Selling Author. ★ Can true love still burn after fifteen years of no contact? Dimitri and Abigail are proof that love is eternal, everlasting, and filled with swirling, heated passion.★★

Dimitri

Love and family are in the air. Most of my brothers have settled down, and I can’t help but think that this could have been me fifteen years ago.

I’d given up the love of my life because I’d wanted her to live, to be happy, to be taken care of. Back then, those were things someone like me could never have given her. I was dirt poor, and when my mother died, I became an emotional wreck.

Since I’d let Abigail go, no woman has been able to fill that empty space in my heart. I’d struggled to bury all memories of the one woman I wanted more than anything but could never have. But as I watch my brothers and their women mingle at Harlo and Catalina’s baby shower, images of Abigail resurface.

Then, that fateful night, we meet again despite all the odds, and suddenly it’s like those fifteen years never passed.

Abigail

For fifteen years, I have only existed. When Dimitri left, it broke me into tiny pieces. Pieces I’ve never been able to find or put back together again. I finally leave California to pursue a dream job in New York, but it seems like adversity follows my every move. One tough night, my car breaks down—and just like that, I meet the boy who broke my heart.

Our love reawakens, and Dimitri finally gives me the closure I'd been so desperate for all those years ago. It's only then that we realize the true mastermind behind the end of our relationship.

★★Book 5 is the ultimate conclusion to the Hailstorm Motorcycle Club Series★★

Passion hotter than the deepest caldera of lava. Absolutely one of the best conclusions I have read to a series in a long time! Yes it is short but it does manage to full fill what it was intended to do. SO if you have not picked up this book along with this series you are having a MOFO moment and I have to say fear no longer! It is here! ALL here! Get this and find out for yourself if this is not everything it should be!

She walks into a bar one night and finds more than a shot....

Dimitri is the fifth and final book in the Hailstorm MC series. This is a second chance, by chance, romance between Abigail "Abby" Niles and Dimitri. Dimitri is the Road Captain of the Hailstorm MC and was part of the Russo Mafia family under Hunter's father, before Hunter took over and cleaned up. Dimitri has watched four of his MC brothers find the love of their lives and start to settle down. But for Dimi he knows that he will never have this as there is only one women that he has ever loved and will ever love. That is his senior high school girlfriend Abby. But before they graduated he left her and town all in the same night. His mother has died from advanced cancer a month ago and he was manipulated into breaking up with Abby by her father. But one night fifteen years later Abby walks into the bar Dimi is at and then things get interesting. It turns out that Abby's father had told a big fat lie to get Dimi to break-up with her. What Dimi thought he was doing to take care of Abby was in fact not what happened and instead she has remained single since that night. After all it was only and would only be Dimi who would have her heart and her body.

This is a fast-paced story that I quite liked, even if I did roll my eyes a few times. Both Abby and Dimi are nicely written characters and the story-line is a bit low key but does have other characters popping up. My only issue is that it needs another round with a proofreader as there are a number of errors, which was annoying to me and stopped the flow of the story. But otherwise it was a nice ride and some fun.

LI received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

15 years ago Dimitri gave up the love of his life Abby. He thought it was best for her but he never stopped loving her. Abby's conscious brain is angry, so angry at Dimitri. Her dreams are where she still allows herself to love him. By total coincidence they see each other one night. Dimitri, older, wiser and richer is determined to keep her.

Abby's father is the reason Dimitri leaves Abby like he did 15 years ago. I can't believe what he did to keep them apart. I think it is very revealing of their character than Abby would be reminiscing while Dimitri ran straight and fast into the future. Now that he had Abby, he would never left them be apart.

Dimitri is a quick read but in this case I really needed more. While I loved Dimitri, I feel like I barely knew Abby. My other issue is that I didn't think the conflict or problems they face together weren't enough. Life just isn't all wine and roses. Since Giovanni was dealt with in an earlier book, the big bad just hasn't been. Overall though I love the series. It's the best so far because it is a little edgier. Each biker is different enough to be interesting. Dimitri is a light, quick summer read with an alpha guy and his woman.

Dimitri and Abigail met in High School. Abigail father thought Dimitri was beneath him, so he told him that she was to marry her friend so he could help her with his money since she was sick.
Dimitri never stopped loving her even though he broke her heart fifteen years earlier. He will never love anyone more then her.
One night while out at a bar, Dimitri was just relaxing when someone walked in and we mentioned she forgot her purse so he pushed his drink to her and said he'd buy her a drink.
That's when she turned and look at Dimitri not believing her luck it was he man she never stopped loving. Dimitri couldn't believe his eyes. His woman! Abigail was shocked to say the least. She o ok the drink and turned to leave. Dimitri calls after her once catching up to her. He stops her and explained what he was told by her father.
Being near him made her knees weak. She never stopped loving him. After being together for the night and the rest of the weekend. Is like no time has past. Dimitri discusses with Hunter how he wants to ask Abigail to marry him. She says yes because it's been a long time coming.

What a Coincidence

This is the fifth and final book in the Hailstorm MC series by Alexis Ashlie and they have only been getting better, and Dimitri’s story is no exception.

Full of emotion, angst, and bitterness, Dimitri has given up on finding love again after the father of his then girlfriend Abigail insinuated he was not good enough to take care of her. Without consulting Abigail for her side of the story, he broke up with her and took off for New York. He feels he’ll never be happy with anyone else so he gives up looking for relationships. In New York, Dimitri meets members of the Hailstorm MC and they become his family.

A coincidence of fate leads Abigail to the bar where Dimitri is, as he sulks about not be happy and is feeling down about all the new couples and families amongst his brothers in the MC. Abigail and Dimitri are shocked to find one another after fifteen years apart. The have many questions about the other, but all that is tossed aside by the chemistry these two have.

This is book number 5 of the Hailstorm MC series and focuses on Dimitri and Abigail. This is the last book to the series. This was such a good second chance romance. 15 years ago, Dimitri broke his and Abigail's hearts when he left her due to the awful lies her dad told him. Neither one had been able to forget the other and one fateful night brings them back together. I loved how Dimitri was all in and determined to keep Abigail this time around. He wasn't about to make the same decisions twice. Abigail was rightfully angry at Dimitri and struggles with letting him back in. I love how they were so open and honest about their feelings and actually worked through the anger and hurt from the last 15 years. I'm glad that Dimitri stepped up and didn't let go in his quest to win back her love. This was hands down the best book of the series and the best way to wrap up the entire series!

This is the story of Dimitri and Abigail. They were sweethearts while were at school but they separated for a lie from Abigail’s dad. They wanted to be together and he told Dimitri that she was sick and he will not be able to provide for her medical treatment. He decided to break with her and leave her with a broken heart. In reality her dad wanted her to marry a rich guy to save his business. Abigail refused to do it. But her heart was broken only loving Dimitri. But fate crossed their paths and they realized they never stopped loving each other. Dimitri wanted a second chance with her. He was a different man and can provided for her. I loved this second chance romance. Both characters never stopped loving each other and finally got the opportunity to be together and have their happily ever after. Great story and characters. Highly recommended.

Abigail is back in town after 15 years. As unluck would have it, her car breaks down and she finds herself in Milkies club to settle her nerves. The one person that she didn't think she would run into is Dimitri, her old love who broke her heart and left her. 15 years seem to pass away and Abigail finally gets an explanation as to why Dimitri broke up with her. It was based on a lie that Abigail's father told Dimitri and some manipulation that he also did to Abigail. Because Dimitri didn't have money to take care of Abigail, he let her go to marry a rich man like Abigail's father wanted her to. Dimitri and Abigails life comes full circle to find each other and sparks fly. Dimitri will not let another minute go by when he has Abigail back in his life. This is book #5 of the "Hailstrom MC" series. Enjoy!

Dimitri is the fifth and final book in the Hailstorm MC Series. He gave up Abigail years ago because he didn't think he was good enough for her. She was the love of his life and he never forgot her. Likewise he was always on her mind as the guy who broke her heart. Fate brings them together 15 years later when her car breaks down and he is the one who rescues her. It's like those fifteen years vanished in a second. You know what they say, true love never dies it just takes a detour. They were great characters with lots of emotion and hidden scars. Truth has a way of coming out. The characters were well developed and there were some twists. I read a free arc via Booksprout and voluntarily chose to review it.

Young love cut short by lies and deceit, is found again when fate plays her hand. Abigail was everything to Dimitri, so when her dad approached him at work asking him to break things off to save her life. Broken hearted after loosing his mother just a month before, did not want her to go through the struggles he went through, so he di what was asked.

Fifteen years later the need to forget and car troubles later, bring Dimitri and Abigail back together. Feeling, passion, heat and the pull is stronger than before, but can the pain be forgiven and with trust heal the past? Dimitri and Abigail's tale is a sweet and heated love story that will warm your heart.

So very good. Dimitri has spent 15 years away from the love of his life. He's sitting in Milkies Club thinking about Abigail. Abigail's car breaks down and the closest place to call for help is Milkies. She can't believe that sitting in front of her is the man that broke her heart 15 years ago. She's so upset that she takes off but Dimitri is right behind her. I love how they finally get the closer that has haunted both of them for 15 years. At least they get an apology from the instigator of their unhappiness for the 15 years they were apart. The love and passion they have for each other is tangible throughout the book. The ending was the icing on the cake. Perfect HEA. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Dimitri told the woman he loved that he did not love her to give her a better life. Her father told him that sje was sick and needed to be with someone who could take care of her. He was not that person as he did not have the money to give her the life she deserved. 15 years later he runs into her and finds out that her father lied. Will they be able to get back together? Will she give him a second chance since neither forgot the other and moved on? Great characters in this second chance love story.

Second chance at love 15 years later....
I won't detail the story which has been covered in previous reviews & the blurb. What I will mention is that the heroine found closure when the hero revealed who was instrumental in making him leave her 15 years prior. Was it destiny or chance that they would meet again after so many years apart. They didn't need to give too much thought to rekindling their relationship, they deserved their second chance. I received an arc & this is my honest & voluntary review.

i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the fifth book in the Hailstorm MC series. In this book, Dimitri and Abigail have a second chance at love after fifteen years apart. They meet again by chance when Abigail's car breaks down. When they meet, the sparks are still there and Abigail wonders if she will finally have the answers as to why Dimitri broke her heart. I liked this romance. I think things could have been different for them in the past, but i also think they needed to mature and would appreciate each other more. Good one.

All Hailstorm MC men are intriguing characters.

But I like Dimitri the most! Perheps because his past, his sufferings and broken heart caused by lies.
But the silver lining is that he meet Abby unexpectedly and in the most unexpected place, after 15 years! And he get to have the second chance!

Love it! Heart breaking and hear warming at the same time!

This is a fast paced, gritty, steamy, quick, second  chance read. It's Dimitri and Abigail's journey tells about losing and finding again the love of your life.
Lies and manipulation causes great chaos in the lives of Dimitri and Abigail, the love of his life. But it's the finding of each other again that's most important in this story. This is the perfect book if a little time is all you have and want a quick read.

I’m sure the book is good for everyone and the author is good but the message is shit,
He was with all kind of whores for 15 years!!!!!! And she is with 0 MEN, this is so wrong and I’m so tired of this shit... Women, live your freaking life and don’t let the wrong message get in your head! You are not a bad woman for having sex too!!’
I hate that there isn’t even a little grovel from him, of course they fuck that same night they met after 15 years.
Sorry but no, no, no,

An amazing second chance romance page-turner and final book in the Hailstorm MC series! It is emotionally deep, engaging, relatable, funny, and well written with shocking revelations, steam, romance, and more. The characters are likeable; the chemistry between them is undeniable and off the charts. Definitely recommended!

Will these two let history repeats itself or will they create new memories with each other?

Finally... Dimitri's story. He broke Abigail's heart, but only because her father lied to him. They've spent 15 years apart. The chemistry is still there, but she's not quite ready to forgive and forget. I love that they get their second chance. And Abigail really lets her father have it! This book is short and steamy, a perfect little afternoon read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was a really good story. I absolutely loved the first person point of view of the story. This is a huge deal breaker for me. There were moments in this book that made me cry. It was an emotional read. 5 stars.

Nice second chance
This is a good simple reminder of how to get a second chance when the choices of the past had been manipulated into a separation.
The story of Dimitri and Abigail is quite beautiful with their reunion 15 years after their separation, hot, and full of avowed truths.

Dimitri is book five in the Hailstorm MC series. The story shows that true love never dies. For Dimitri and Abby, it took fifteen years for them to find their way back to one another. Once they did, their passion explodes. The couple finally get their happily ever after. With intensely steamy romance, a little drama, and engaging characters, Dimitri is an entertaining page-turner.

Basically it’s right to the point with Dimitri and his only women he loved and lost 15 years ago due to someone’s lies. Fate is a fickle but most times they will bring two people together when it’s their time...
No triggers, no drama from other man/woman to cause trouble. Great read!
