Lexi wakes up in the cabin of three men. She can’t remember anything. According to the guys they found her in the shore and she was in a life vest and her lips were blue.
Reaper’s sister was murdered and there is nothing he can do to get the suspect to be charged. Hawk and Kane are his brothers from another mother. They are there to help Reaper let go of the anger he has.
As soon as Lexi wakes up a little scared as she can’t remember anything. Hawk makes her feel comfortable, Kane is quiet but he makes her laugh, and Reaper scares her. He does not believe her and does not hold back with this theory. She remembered some stuff and was afraid to let the guys know but Hawk talked to her to tell the others. She told them and Reaper went threw the roof thinking the person who killed his sister sent Lexi to spy on them. On the ride back to the mainland she had excruciating pain in her head, and then all of a sudden she remembered everything. She was so scared as she didn’t want the same guy who killed Reaper’s sister to do that to her. She told the guys and they knew they had to protect her.
This was a really good book. It wasn’t as spicy as I expected but it is still really great.

Forever and Always

Wow! This sizzling hot reverse harem story by Ava Quinn is off the charts wonderful! Amnesia, a deadly rivalry between MCs, and tons of action! And not just the steamy stuff either! This amazing story is about living through grief, learning to trust, and finding that elusive feeling called love. A love that captures Lexi, Reaper, Kane, and Hawk by surprise but has them holding tight together as they fight for their happiness and their forever after. I love this story so much! Ava Quinn is amazing!

When she is found near death on the beach of a private island with no memories, the three bikers aren't sure what to do but save her. While Hawk and Kane are friendly and caring, Reaper is convinced that her amnesia is an act. When her memories start to return and the past catches up to them, their bonds are challenged. This is more of a slow-burn than a high-heat but the chemistry is undeniable.

Too confusing

I only made it to chapter 5 page 65. They find a chick on a beach take her in. She doesn't remember synthetic a while. One guy is having flash backs of a sister that was killed. But they don't tell you how. They just keep repeating he is the alpha of the group. The girl with amnesia wants to screw Hawk right away even though she doesn't remember anything and is scared!!! This book makes no sense 👎 waste of time. I could not read anymore

Protected ❤

I book was pretty good. I enjoyed it, but I wished when she started to remember, that they actually went through in what caused her to remember. And let the reader see what she remembers in details, instead of one of the guys saying oh, she remembers. I like more details.

This is by far one of the greatest reverse harem books I have read this year. This book has everything and I was hooked on the story from page one. Definitely a must read!

A fabulous instalove story

Lexi, Hawk, Kane, and Reaper are so in love. This book was full of action and steam. Reaper was a jerk at first, but given his past, it was mildly understandable.

Interesting, definitely some dramatic moments. The sex was low key in the beginning.

don’t bother

Was disappointed in this read. I really like bikers too. So I don’t think I can do any more of these books.

[Nikki Rome · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it!

Ava Quinn knocked it outside of the part with this one! I enjoyed Lexi and the boys as they got to know each other and worked through their own issues. I didn’t know what to think of Reaper at first but I’m happy to say I absolutely adore him!

I can’t wait to read more!

Nice

This is a nice read. Some dander, some obsession and lots of hot maleness. Overall enjoyed this easy read with these liable characters.

Exciting Read

What happens when you find a girl washed up on your island, and she has no memory, but wait until you find out who she was with.

[Avery Cole · Rating 3 out of 5]

I really like this author, but this was just mediocre for me. Plot felt very rushed.

[Carly M · Rating 5 out of 5]

*spoilers* Reaper, Hawk and Kane find a woman on the island, where they stay in a cabin. She does not remember who she is and lost her memory, slowly reembering bits andpeaces. Reaper learned to not trust anybody and when their enemies the daggers appear, at the same time, he is very suspicious of the woman. He thinks sister was killed by Brick. Lexi soon finds out, that they are bikers, in a club called Guardians. Hawk is sweet to Lexi, she feels kind of safe with him, but she is scared of Reaper´s reactions. Then she recognizes Brick on a picture and Reaper gets even more gruff. She learns, that they were send to the island, to take a time out for Reaper, because the president of the MC does not want to start a war between daggers and guardians. They can not leave the island due to a storm. They get to know each other and she learns, that the three men share everything... She gets to know them together and each for themself. What is up with Brick? How does Lexi know him and is she in danger? Will they keep her safe and will they love each other?
I really liked how the men were so different, every relationship is different, but completing each other. I also loved the ending

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. Reaper, Hawk and Kane are on the private island when Lexi is found on the beach. The men are there to help Reaper from having a meltdown due to grief. He lives and breathes only for revenge. This story is more about the characters to me. Even though the MC and drug dealers are what their lives revolve around, their developing relationship was front and center. There is so much stacked against them but once they break thru their strength is together. I liked all the guys but Reaper is definitely front and center with the loss of his sister. Lexi is a girl that got caught up in something bigger than she could have imagined. She has spunk but has an underlying sweetness and is perfect for all three men. There is a lot going on in this short love story. Danger, death, rival MCs, drug runners, grief, best friends, amnesia, secrets and attraction.

This book is a very steamy reverse harem about Lexi and the three bikers that save her life. Lexi wakes up with amnesia after almost drowning. She was saved by three bikers: Reaper, Hawk, and Kane. When a bad guy from a rival MC starts looking around the island they are on, Reaper has suspicions that Lexi is more than she lets on.

Hawk and Kane are taken with the beautiful Lexi but Reaper isn’t ready to let her in. He’s dealing with the tragic loss of his sister and is worried she knows more than she says. We learn more about everyone as the story goes on and feelings begin to grow between all of these characters.

There is tons of steam in this book as Lexi begins falling for all three. Reaper takes longer but Hawk and Kane are willing to share. Read their story to find out what happens with the rival. Will they be able to keep Lexi safe? Will Reaper come around and join in the steamy? It’s a great read and blends the MC trope well with a reverse harem.

Lexi is found washed up on the island that Reaper, Kane, and Hawk are staying at. The guys are close like brother but not blood brothers. Lexi can't remember what happened to her, her name, or how she got to the island. Reaper has been grieving over the death of his sister. He's not trusting Lexi at all. They are all concerned about Lexi but are slow to trust her. When she sees a picture of the man she's running from, it's the same man that killed Reaper's sister. There's plenty of action, adventure, self doubt, trust issues, heartache, passion and love. Not jut for one of the men but she want's all three. (Good for her) Love how they commit themselves to each other. First book I've read by this author and totally enjoyed it.

No spoilers here, I prefer to leave the storyline for the reader’s own discovery. This is marketed as an MC/RH, but I would call it more of an MC light book. There are three main characters who are bikers but beyond that, the focus is not on bikes and the life of a MC. All in all, this was a great read for me! Lexi stumbles into her men when she is in need of their help. She quickly finds herself falling for all three of her protectors, Reaper, Kane and Hawk, and each man brings something different to the table in this unique relationship. The book had drama, lots of steamy sex, action, and some personal struggles for some of the characters, but they do reach their HEA! This was my first chance reading a book by Ava Quinn and I look forward to reading more.

Just wow. Three bikers protecting one woman is the perfect plot for me so when I read the blurb I had to devour this book.
Lexi appears on a random doorstep during a storm requiring help but she had no idea who would answer the door.
The three bikers who live there are now not willing to let her go.
She soon develops feelings for each of them but maybe she can have all of them.

I loved this story which had steam, care, action and trust.
Lexi is in a position where these men could have been dangerous for her but she must trust they will look after her. That level of trust is refreshing in a story of this type.
I enjoyed this journey that sucked me straight in and wouldn't let go.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the story, it was full of action and I loved the chemistry between all of the characters. Kane, Hawk and Reaper have found a woman washed up on the beach of their island in the Caribbean. She has no memory of who she is or what happened to her. Slowly over the time that she is with them she is falling in love with all three men, there is a mystery to resolve and an element of danger in her past and in their future. Is the same man responsible for Lexi losing her memory as well as Reaper having to hide away. There is a happily ever after once they finally get away together.

This is my first time reading this author and starts out with Lexi almost drowning and having amnesia. She is saved by three bikers, Reaper, Kane, and Hawk. The only one not so trustful is Reaper whose is dealing with the loss of sister and he believes Lexi knows something. This story is so well written and the characters are strong and persistent. The author’s book has a great storyline that includes everything you would want in a story it has surprises, twists and turns, drama, danger, rival MCs, secrets and romance all well worth picking up and reading.

Lexi has amnesia and is found by Hawk, Reaper and Kane who try to help her. Though Reaper is super suspicious of her “amnesia” and keeps confronting her about it. Despite that, Lexi is attracted to him as well as Hawk and Kane. They are equally attracted to her, and have a desire to protect her throughout all the action and drama that ensues. I though the chemistry between them was sizzling hot and steamy, and found this story entertaining.

Lexi is found by three men on a small island and suffering with amnesia. Trust is a hard issue for everyone and when she starts to recognize pictures of people and remembers a few things, it is harder for them all. The characters are strong and determined. The storyline has surprises, twists, drama, danger and romance. The group was entertaining with all the situations they get into. Loved the ending.

So much adventure and personal growth in this book! While there is more then a few sexy scenes it is not the main theme in the book. (Or at least that's how I feel) it's about grief, self doubt, finding out who you are (sometimes literally), and love over adversity! Such a complex and amazing romance novel!!
