I was only supposed to get her safely out of town until the threat was gone. But then, I fell in love.
I might be the muscle of the Diamondback MC, but I’m mostly known as the jokester. There’s nothing funny in the protective feelings I have for Sadie and her daughter Henley, however.Sadie’s been hurt and she’s built walls around her heart for protection. I won’t let that stop me. I’m going to do everything I can to prove to her that I’m a man she and her daughter can trust.
When she finally lets me in, her fate is sealed. I’m never letting either of them go—they’re everything to me—and God help anyone who tries to take them away.
Tory is serving up another hot alpha biker sure to make your kindles quiver. Remember every Tory book gives you an over-the-top alpha, a happily ever after, and so much heat to have your engines revving.
Tory Baker is a mom of two teenagers and a dog mom to one wild and active Weimaraner, Remi. She lives in a small coastal town on the east coast of sunny Florida. Oftentimes you’ll find her outside soaking up the rays with at least three drinks surrounding her, a wandering imagination, and a notebook in hand where she’s jotting down a plot for her next story. She’s a lover of writing happily ever afters with Alpha heroes and sassy heroines.
We caught a glimpse of Ruger, Sadie and little Henley in Persephone and Shovel's story Wild. Sadie was trying her best to be a single mom to Henley while dealing with the mess her baby daddy, Mac left behind. Ruger and the Diamondback MC were right in the thick of the mess with Sadie and Ruger was determined to make Sadie his. Once she let go of her fears and realized what she could lose with keeping him at arm's length, Sadie went all in with Ruger and their love was on fire. The bond between little Henley and her Ru-Ru was so sweet! The epilogue was so cute showing just how amazing Ruger was at being a dad. Cannot wait for Monroe's story!!
Oh I absolutely loved this book, filled with passion, heat, love, action, and suspense..... Sadie is an independent single mother who hates to rely on others, but there is something about Ruger she can not deny any longer. How could she not fall for the guy who will do everything he can to protect her and her daughter, and who treats Henley like she is his. Ruger is a man who has a heart of gold, is not scared to protect his girls at any costs, treats Sadie's daughter like she’s his own, is a sexy tough biker and a smooth sweet talker... ever woman needs a man like Ruger in their lives...
WOW!! Fab*u*lous Absolutely love this one!! I couldn't put this one down. This was a nice quick, short read.
Ruger/Bentley mets Sadie and her daughter Hanley when he needs to get them out of town. Sadie had a one night stand with the manager, Mack of Diamond's in the Sky, Diamondback strip club. Sadie doesn't get much out of Mack, but now the Diamondback MC have taken care of him since he was in with the Cartel. Ruger considers both Sadie and her daughter Hanley who's only two this. Sadie doesn't want to open her heart to Ruger she's been hurt to many time, especially now that Hanley's father is no longer able to help her. Ruger heads to Sadie's and helps with Hanley putting her to sleep and letting Sadie take a shower. Ruger tells Sadie that she and Hanley need to come to his house and be protected by his brothers. Sadie doesn't like it but she's willing goes. The next day Ruger has all the MC boys loading up her things into a moving van. Later that night Ruger comes home to find Hanley already asleep, and Sadie ready for bed. After Ruger takes a shower he climbs into bed with Sadie. When Ruger first met Sadie he told her to call him Bentley, she tells him she's ready to jump into a relationship with him, she just doesn't want her heart broken. Ruger is always there for Sadie's daughter Hanley and she calls him "Ru-Ru", she loves him freely and knows how amazing he is. Sadie pleasures him then Ruger pleasures her, then they make love. Hanley wakes up before the sun is up the next morning so Sadie takes her to the kitchen and makes them breakfast. When Ruger wakes up he makes sure to kiss each off his girls. Sadie and Ruger talk about how she can help contribute to the house. Ruger tells her there is no mortgage, his home is paid for. He tells her that them being here is enough of her to contribute. After Ruger goes to his office, he goes through his emails, then goes to get a cup of coffee. Ruger finds one of his brothers standing over a prospect with a pool cue in hand. Rage Sinful tells Ruger he found him coming out of Shovel's Wild office, one place no one is allowed. After Shovel and Razor Dirty arrive they hold church and put the prospect in the hanger. While they guys head to church Ruger gets a phone call from Sadie, she's taking Hanley to the doctors, she's spiked a fever, since he can't go he sends Bennett to watch over her. Sadie lets Ruger know that Monroe Wet is with her. After Sadie and Monroe pick up the prescription from the pharmacy when they walk outside they can't find Bennett. Sadie and Monroe both pull out their phones to call Shovel and Ruger, only to hear the click of a gun. Ruger and Shovel find out the prospect, Jamie was forced into the MC by Tony the head of the Cartel to find information on Sadie and Hanley. Jamie tells them that his father is Tony and he doesn't care if he's dead, so they send a message to his mother. Sadie and Monroe are held at gunpoint. Sadie tells Monroe if she sees an opportunity to take Hanley and run, but she tells her she can't leave her behind. Shovel and Ruger get a phone call from Bennett he's with the girls and know where they are, so they all head that way. After one of the Cartel check on Monroe and Sadie the door is left open, they watch it for a while, then decide to make a run for it. Sadie gives Hanley to Monroe and tells her to run for it after she tells her the coast is clear. When Sadie steps out she finds most of the Cartel have gunshot wounds to their heads, so she tells Monroe to look straight ahead. Shovel and Ruger load up Jamie in the van and head to the location Bennett gave them. When Sadie and Monroe step outside they are met with a woman holding a gun at them, she asks them where Jamie is. They tell her they don't know they were kidnapped and being held. They find out that the woman was married to Tony and Jamie is her son, but not Tony's. The woman, Maria tells them she wants her son, Jamie back, and he better not come back injured. When Ruger, Shovel, Razor, Cannon, and Doc step out of the van, pulling Jamie out who is clearly injured Maria shouts at them. That's when Sadie makes her move, telling Monroe to move. Sadie jumps on Maria's back who turned to wave the gun at the MC brothers. Sadie knocks the gun out of Maria's hand, but she's yelling at Sadie that she'll kill her. The gun fires, and Sadie hears Ruger yelling her name, before she goes down her eyes stay open long enough for her to see Maria no longer has the gun, but then Sadie's world goes dark. Ruger rushes to her side making sure she has a pulse, but Doc is there telling him to move so he can check her over, she took a nasty fall. Shovel drags Jamie into the house and Razor grabs Maria to do the same. Doc tells Ruger to go check on Monroe and Hanley to make sure they're alright. Ruger finds Monroe and tells her to take a break he'll take Hanley. When Sadie wakes up Doc helps her sit up, she asks where Monroe and Hanley are. After she sits up she sees Monroe talking with Cannon Wet so she doesn't mention it. Ruger comes over with Hanley to check on Sadie. Ruger tells Sadie that they need to clean up so Cannon and Doc will take them back to the clubhouse and they need to stay there. Sadie explains to Ruger that Maria is the one who killed all the men inside the house and he needs to be careful. Ruger tells her he loves her before he leaves, and tells her she doesn't have to return his words. Sadie tells him she loves him, there's no doubt she does, she told him she was jumping in with two feet and meant it. Ruger leans over and kisses Sadie until they hear a throat clearing behind them, so they both need to get moving. After all the brothers head back to the clubhouse, they all have a drink. When Ruger gets to his room he heads to the bathroom, not stopping to kiss even Hanley, he needs to get a shower to wash everything off of him. When Ruger slides into bed, Hanley is laying in the middle of the bed. He grabs a pair of shorts and tells Sadie he wants to hold his girls. Sadie tells him she loves him and Ruger tells her he loves her and Hanley. Four months later, Sadie is pregnant and things are different from her pregnancy with Hanley. Sadie may have been reluctant to let Ruger in at first, but he sure enough won not only her over but Henley too, when they get married in a week, she's got the papers for him to sign to formally adopt Henley. All of them will have his last name. One big happy family. Three years later, Hanley runs out of the house ready to spend the day with Ruger. They have a two year old son, Jackson. Ruger wants another one, Sadie is going to see if Monroe can watch Hanley and Jackson so they can get started. As long as Ruger has Sadie, their kids, his brothers, and the club, his life is perfect. The good, the bad, and the beautiful.

I am voluntarily reviewing an advanced reader copy of this book.
Sadie hadn’t expected be a single mum but there is nothing she’d change about it either, Henley was the best thing to ever happen to her. What wasn’t was her now deceased baby daddy and the trouble he brought to her door, now her and Henley are under the protection of the Diamondback MC and especially under the protection of Ruger, he is everything she has ever wanted but with yet another threat hanging over their heads can she really let her guard down and let love in or will she be denied the chance?
Ruger knew the minute he met Sadie that she is his calling, meeting Henley only confirmed what he already knew, they were meant to be but she’s been hurt before and badly. He is determined to demolish every wall she has erected to protect her heart down, but when danger comes calling and outside forces try to take her and Henley away he knows he will tear the world apart to find them. Being a Diamondback MC brother is all he ever wanted before Sadie now he wants it all, will he and his brothers make it to save them on time and will she finally admit what she really feels for him?
Entertaining, short and addictive read. Henley is too adorable and reading Sadie and Ruger’s journey was perfect. Cannot wait for Monroe’s book. 4* read.
The addition starts with the book cover….yeah…yeah…yeah don’t judge a book by its cover they say ….well we all do it and this one here it is the scratch to your itch or better yet the filling to your oreos! Within the first chapters you get the panoramic view of whom you’re dealing with! This is book is part of the Diamondback MC series why just read one when you can start at the beginning and keep reading through the series it won’t be a waste of time. Sadie a single mom, trying to keep it together for her little girl Henley (she is just the cutest little people have a tendency to make things better 😊). Ruger sexy as all get out biker, not afraid to fight or stand up for what is right, and he wants to protect his girls (make no mistake about it they are his girls even if they don’t know it yet). Sadie is moving back to an apt. that really no one should be living there after the lockdown but feels she has no choice. The chemistry is instant and intense, the magnetic pull can’t be ignored but will she allow herself to trust again, will her past come back to hunt her, will her big strong biker keep them safe and can she finally have some peace and happiness?
Ruger is the muscle for the MC. He is big, muscles galore, tats and he is ready to defend the people in his life. Right now he has the MC he needs to protect and serve but he also needs to protect Sadie and her daughter, Henley. He needs to bring them to the MC compound because they are in danger too. Sadie needs to protect Henley. Sadie doesn’t want to depend on anybody again - she wants to standup for herself. Ruger wants to protect them both. When Ruger is with Sadie and Henley he is the opposite of the bad boy - He is patient, tender and loving. He has a special kind of love for the two of them. Ruger wants to keep them safe. They are his family. Sadie is an independent, strong willed, hardworking, curvy, loving mom. There is some head butting, some pushing and shoving. Danger is around every corner. There is steam. There is drama, lusty passion, and sexy hotness. I really enjoyed this read! I like when bad boys show their tender side! Great read!

This is book number 3 in the Diamondback MC series and focuses on Ruger and Sadie. Sadie had been dealt a bad hand in life and especially with the father of her daughter Henley. Mack (trouble with him began in book 1) brought a lot of trouble for Sadie and it has finally come to a head. Ruger is determined to make Sadie his and to love her and her daughter forever, first he has to get her to let her walls down and let him in. Thankfully, it doesn't take long for Sadie to come around and jump all in with him but just as soon as she does, trouble cropped up and put hers, Henley, and Monroe's lives at stake. Oh my this book was SOOO good! I could not put it down! I love everything Tory puts out, but this series is definitely hitting it out of the park for me. I cannot wait for the next book! But seriously, if I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat.

Sadie is a single mom that has nothing but trouble since she met Henley's dad, her ex. She is glad he is out of the picture but not sure she can keep imposing on Ruger even though he is so great with Henley and she loved him.
Ruger does not like the idea of Sadie going back to her crap apartment, that is no place for his girls. He talks her into moving into his house near the Diamondback MC club house, for her safety. Things heat up fast between them, they take their relationship to the next level. He is determined that he is never letting go of either of them.
This is the third book in the Diamondback MC series and can be read as a standalone (I have not read the first two yet). An over-the-alpha that has met his match, the chemistry is hot.

In the third installment of Tory Baker's wonderful Diamondback MC series, Bare, we finally get the story of Ruger and Sadie (and baby Henley)! I've never been a big fan of MC romance, but each novella in this series is un-put-downable. Ruger isn't Henley's father, but from the beginning of the book you would never know it from the tender care he demonstrates whenever she is concerned. And his love for Sadie is palpable. Sadie has had a rough road with enough heartache to put her off love, but Ruger is more than willing to wait her out. This is a super steamy, entertaining romance, with a relentless, swoon-worthy anti-hero and a sassy, strong single mother heroine - another fabulous offering in this fun series!

Sadie has had a rough life and has worked hard to support herself. The one time she relaxed and had fun, she found herself pregnant from a one night stand with an MC member. He tried to be a dad but wasn't successful. Then he did something stupid leaving his MC and Sadie and his child in danger. Luckily Ruger, a fellow member of the diamondback MC was willing to step in a protect them. Sadie knows that Ruger wants her to be his but she is unsure if she can handle the MC life. Her daughter however claimes Ru Ru as hers. Ruger is so good to her, Sadie finds her defenses falling. Maybe she is meant to be Ruger's.

This is the 3rd book in the Diamondback MC series and each one is so good!! This book is about club member Ruger and single mother Sadie. Sadie got pregnant from a one night stand with another club member, Mack. When Mack is killer, Ruger takes Sadie and her daughter under his protection. He’s crazy about Sadie but she’s hesitant to get involved with another bad boy.
Their story has TON of steam to be enjoyed! Tory does an excellent job writing steamy scenes! Her books as a whole as wonderful to read but she really brings me in with her steam! There is also suspense in this book with a kidnapping and a traitor. Read their story and this entire series today!

Sadie has been with the bad boy before and the only thing that relationship left her with was her daughter, Henley. Ruger wants to be with Sadie, and to make Henley his, but Sadie keeps pushing back, but when the past starts to catch up with her she wants to stop fighting.
Bare is the third book in the series, and is full of raw emotions, danger, the need to protect, explosive passion and a love that runs deep than blood. Ruger has wanted Sadie, and has be patient with her, but with the Cartel tracks her down nothing will stop him from what is his.
Great fast read the will keep you on the edge of your seat.

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. In this book of the Diamondback MC series, we get the story between Ruger and Sadie. She is the single mom to Henley. Ruger has liked her for a while but she wants to do things herself. When she finds herself in danger along with the club, he does not hesitate to protect them. This does not go quite how he wanted. What problems they have are wrapped up and they start becoming a family. This was a sweet romance with a little steam. I enjoyed the book and the characters

This is the third book in the Diamondback MC Series. Sadie has had nothing, but trouble since her ex. Only Ruger the MC’s muscle has been by her side the whole time protecting her and her daughter Henley. Ruger doesn’t like the idea of Sadie and Henley staying in her crap apartment so he talks her into moving into his house near the Diamondback MC club house, for her safety. What she doesn’t know is that he is in love with her and will do whatever it takes to protect her and her daughter and make them his! Another great book in the series!

You can fight it but if it’s meant to be it will be.
I really liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable although there was some violence due to cartel and MC stuff. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. Ruger (Bentley) knew that Sadie and Henley were his but he had to work on Sadie to get her on the same page as him. Sadie wanted Ruger too but was fighting it and herself. Henley was a sweetie and I adored her name for Ruger. Sadie and Henley were exactly what Ruger wanted and needed in his life. There was some drama but it resolved well. I loved their happy ever after. I recommend reading this book.
i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the third book in the Diamondback MC series. This is the story of Ruger and Sadie. Sadie is a single mother and Ruger looks after her, when she lets him. Ruger knows Sadie and her daughter Henley are his family and he wants to be with her, but she is stubborn. Ruger wants to claim Sadie and sets out to convince her. Sadie loves Ruger, but she is scared to be with him. Sadie must learn to trust Ruger and the fact he will always be there for her and Henley. I loved Ruger, He was a great guy who really loved Sadie and Henley. I love how he would play with Henley and treated her like she was his. Another great one in this series.
Tory Baker is one of my automatic KU reads. Love how this MC series blends honor, military, and loyalty. While each book is a stand-alone, they segway into the next book leaving the reader with an option and not a cliff hanger!
This is also a second chance so to speak and living with your choices. Sadie has made some mistakes in the past but works to get beyond them. When the chips are down she comes through and is no wimp!

This book was awesome. I couldn’t put it down. I love Ruger and Sadie together. And we can’t forget Sadies little girl Henley she stole my heart from the beginning. Henley and Sadie had moved back into their apartment that wasn’t the best after lockdown was over. But Ruger had wanted Sadie to stay with him. Ruger wanted to have Sadie as his. Once she finally gave into that the past came back to their lives and they had to fight to find their happy ever after. This book was really good and I can’t wait to see what happens next
This was a fantastic book. I loved Sadie and Ruger together. Sadie is sassy but also a BA. Ruger is great; I love how he is with Henley and Sadie. I really enjoyed the connection and the chemistry between these two. I really enjoyed the steam, suspense, love, action, sweetness, and HEA that Henley, Sadie and Ruger got with this book. I can't wait for Monroe's book! I would highly recommend this book, this series and Ms. Tory as a must read author.

I have read almost all of Tory Baker's books and loved them all and Bare was no exception. It's book 3 in the The Diamondback MC series. It was well written and a definite page turner. Ruger and Sadie were OTT explosive together. Sadie is a single mom to her little girl Henley and she is struggling thanks to her ex, also Henley's dad. Ruger loves not only Sadie but he loves Henley as though she were his daughter. When the MC have trouble with the cartel, Ruger and his MC brothers are determined to protect them. 5 stars!
This ended up being my fav of the series so far. I do think you need to read the previous books in the series to really get a good feel for the connection between these two. How Ruger takes care of Sadie and Henley is so sweet for him being a gruff biker. These series has plenty of action and suspense and this doesn't disappoint. I think the end really shows how strong Sadie is and what a mama bear really looks like. Loved it!

If the cover doesn't draw you in, then the blurb will. I'm loving this series, the characters and storyline are so good. You can never go wrong with an MC romance and this series really hits the spot. The story has a good pace and keeps you hooked from that first paragraph, the introduction draws you in. I couldn't put it down, it was so good that I couldn't wait to finish it. The characters were well written and you couldn't help but enjoy them and their interactions, they heated up the pages. I cannot wait to hear more from this series and author!
Gosh, straight to the point. We enter into the story with Rugar a.k.a Bently a.k.a Ru-Ru taking charge of Sadie and Henley. Sadie makes a decision about her relationship with Rugar and the Diamondback Club that has been like family. There is an abduction A mother's love Action Suspense A mole A bit of vengeance A look into another couples beginning Is the danger finally over for the Diamondbacks or is the new faction even more of a threat than the Cartel
Ruger is just what Sadie needs, love this character as he is manly, stable and everything a single mom deserves. A good storyline with an intriguing twist that will make Sadie yearn for Ruger even more and stop fighting her desires and show the beginnings of another couple for a future as well. Loved the ending as this couple forms a beautiful family.

I absolutely love how the books in this series tie together. We have already met Sadie and Ruger in previous books, and now we finally get their story. I loved how well the characters were developed and the twists and turns were well written. I absolutely adored little Henley, the scenes with her were so precious. Great read, can’t wait for the next book!

Bare is book number 3 of the Diamondback MC series written by the talented author Tory Baker. I love MC romance stories and I think Tory's writing style is perfectly on point. Tory has found her genre!!!! I absolutely fell in love with Ruger, Sadie and her cute daughter Henley. The plot is full of drama, fast pace, danger, action and a sexy romance. Remember every Tory book gives you an over-the-top alpha and a happily ever after. Can't wait for the next book in the series!
Tory Baker is a freaking fantastic author!! I’ve been reading her books all in a row from the last series she brought out and I didn’t think I’d love another series as much as I loved that one but this one is becoming my absolute new favorite I swear! This book was freaking amazing!! If you haven’t read this one or the first two definitely do it they are so good!

Sadie and Ruger with baby girl Henley made my heart melt! This was the sugar sweet read I hoped it would be. Tory Baker has created her most perfect series, so far and I want her to write these insta-love, insta-hot, MC novellas F O R E V E R! Ruger is so gone for his girls, it almost brought a tear to my eye. Luckily Sadie is finally ready to take a chance on this beautiful man and the MC family he brings with him. I adored Bare, gets 6 stars from this very, very happy reader!
This is the story of Sadie and Henley. Henley was the product of a one night stand. Sadie will do anything for her and when Ruger steps up she fights his commitment to her and her daughter and her feeling for him.. Read along ro find out what happens for Sadie to realize all she needed to do was open up to Ruger and all would be better. Great story with wonderful characters.
