This is the 5th book in this MC series but it can be read as a standalone. Doc is a doctor as well as a member of the MC. Fallon is a waitress and starting over after leaving her abusive ex. When her ex tracks her down, she ends up in the ER and Doc plans on keeping her safe. Fast-paced read with loads of drama, suspense and emotion. The chemistry is sizzling and the scenes steamy. I loved it!

I’ve been waiting for Doc’s story and it hit all my expectations! Fallon has definitely had a rough go of life and it didn’t get any better after saying ‘I Do’. She finally has had enough and escapes. But her past isn’t willing to let her walk away. When she ends up in Doc’s hands he knows he’s had enough waiting and it’s time for him to take action. Fallon will never be hurt again while and Doc’s determined to make sure she’s blissfully happy with him.

Doc gets his girl. While some of the things that happen occur before the story, we get enough information that we know how Doc and Fallon meet. There is danger and there is mention of past trauma for Fallon. The story moves quickly though and it's sweet and sexy.

OMG!!! WOW!! Fab*u*lous Absolutely love this one!! I couldn't put this one down. This was a nice quick, short 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 Doctor Daddy’s Perfect Littles 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. Each book reads as a standalone, but they are connected this one is Doc. (finally) if you read Wild then we met his daughter now it is his turn. Doc is a sexy as all get out doc for the MC, takes care of his brothers when needed, and when he sees Fallon (while she is working at the diner) he knows it just a matter of time! Fallon is intelligent, struggling, have fallen on hard times on the run from a monster, her abusive husband (straight evil she had reason to run). He sent her to the hospital and when she woke up to Doc’s face although she wouldn’t tell him what was going on, but he knew she was in trouble and needed to protect her (despite the fact he was stubborn). Fallon is a fighter no matter how hard her jerk of a husband tried to break her once Doc claimed her it was a done deal so to speak. The chemistry is insanely intense, and the magnetic pull can’t be ignored once he, his brothers, their old ladies put actions into place to protect her so when her jerk ex. husband shows up will she feel safe, will he protect her, will her jerk get what’s coming to her, and can she finally have peace and happiness?

A cry for help doesn't go unheard.
Fallon tried to hide her abuse by sheltering her family. Limited access, excuses, denial.
Well that is in the past, a nurses brash attitude and honestly prompt Fallon to seek shelter in the people who love her.
Cole a.k.a Doc raised his daughter with the help of his brothers at the club, now Monroe has left home to pursue her own path and love. For months Cole watched and waited, but this this time he is taking charge.  Normally he sits back and waits for the club to call him when needed, this time it is him who makes the call. One name, Fallon.
Fallons father Russell an ex Ranger, has seen the unthinkable in his life, but to see his only daughter beaten and battered is the worst.
She thought she was safe, prepared, cautious but he found her, Brad had connections, family just as cruel and willing to use power and money to cover up his abuse to his wife. Falling cries for help fell on deaf ears for so long, one last attempt, Brad really is going to kill her this time,  he attacks her out in the open where anyone can see, but his blows are direct and precise hits to a specific place on her body.. the scar around her heart..
BEEP BEEP BEEP.........
Rage hers her call
Doc and the Diamondbacks all rally..
Russell wants in, he is working another angle while the brothers work theirs.
A plan is formed..
A lovers caress
Accepting help
Feeling free
Trust and Admiration
A family formed
Trap set, bluff called Happy Ending

Doc, or Cole as Fallon was allowed to call him, finally found a reason to slow down from the hospital and focus on something (someone) else!! He first met her at the diner she was working and while he was attracted to the younger woman he could tell she wasn’t ready for anything more than a friendship. Fallon was running from a monster, her abusive husband. Wow, that guy was pure evil! When Fallon woke up in the ER it was to Doc’s concerned face. Doc knew he had to protect and take care of Fallon no matter how stubborn she was. I love that even through everything Fallon has been through she didn’t lose her spirit!

Doc quickly claimed Fallon and took all the steps necessary to protect her and give her the life she deserved. All the women in the MC, including Doc’s daughter, Monroe helped Fallon settled in to her new life which helped her realize she was right where she needed to be. Between the MC and Fallon’s dad (who I adored) the husband was handled allowing Fallon to really start her life. Fallon was exactly what Doc needed to feel whole and finally have a little piece of happiness. I love that Doc became a grandfather and new father at the same time 😁 Looking forward to learning more about Rage 😮💜

Filthy is the 5th book in this FANTASTIC series! We finally get Doc's story and it was worth the wait. Doc has been alone for along time between the hospital, the club and raising Monroe as a single dad he didn't have time for anything else since his daughter had always been his priority but she's all grown up and living her own life and now there's Fallon. Fallon is in an abusive marriage and she's trying to escape before her husband kills her. Since he has so many people in his pocket she can't get any help so she has no choice but to run. She gets a job waitressing at the diner in the new town she's in and that's where she meets Doc/Cole. She's attracted to him right away but she doesn't want to drag Cole into her problems. Fallon's worried what her vengeful husband and his family would do to Doc and the club. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers but I will say that you definitely need to read this book and go on Doc and Fallon's journey with them you'll be glad that you did as you'll get to see some old friends from the previous books. I'm looking forward to reading Rage's story next.

If you’ve been reading the Diamondback MC series, you will be thrilled that it’s finally Doc’s turn to find love. He’s been featured throughout the series and is a character that you can quickly fall in love with. Especially as the father to Monroe (who also got her HEA). If you haven’t read the series (you should!) don’t worry you can still enjoy this as a stand-alone. You will appreciate his journey more if you read the other books though.

Fallon is a younger woman running from a scary past and working at the local diner. Doc has had his eye on her for awhile but wanted to give her time to view him as a trustworthy friend. When her past meets up with her present, Doc isn’t going to take any chances. Fallon will be his to love and protect.

Read their sweet and steamy story to find out what happens. What is in Fallon’s past? What will it cost the MC to deal with it? Will Doc and Fallon get their HEA? LOVED this couple and this book!!

Was wondering when Doc would get his story told. Tory Baker is one of my favorite authors and immediate KU reads. I love all her books but I think Doc's story is my favorite.

This is an age gap story where Doc and Fallon have both had some really rough spots in their lives. Doc is a chick magnet but hasn't let it go to his head and is very down to earth. The kind of guy you'd love to meet in real life.

Even though mental and physical domestic abuse is part of the story. Fallon is no push over but a survivor. Her survival is partially due to a nurse talking to her frankly without judgement about where things would end if she didn't break the cycle. Also how getting mental help/support is not a weakness. I would give this six starts if I could because of the way it deals with domestic abuse.

Fallon left her home town to escape an abusive husband, she thought she had moved far enough away to hide. He found her and may have killed her if Rage had not heard her cries and stepped. Doc walks into her hospital and tells her she is no longer alone, he and the Diamondback MC will protect her from her husband.

Doc has wanted Fallon since he first saw her at the diner she was working at but felt he was probably too old for her. All it takes is her getting hurt and all bets are off her is claiming her even if he doesn't tell her yet.

This is the fifth book in the Diamondback MC series and can be read as a standalone. This Doc might want to take it slow, but his woman might have other thoughts on that. I cannot wait for Rage's book.

I am just going to start all of my book reviews by Tory Baker with O.M.G from now on! Mrs. Tory Baker loves to write about the MC life. The Diamondbacks MC to be precise! This is an Insta-love story which features Doc who is a medical doctor and a young woman name Fallon who is currently running from an abusive husband.

Doc offers his protection and claims Fallon as his own. The story is actioned packed with corrupted cops and others who can be brought to find Fallon and return her to her husband. The story includes steamy scenes and a strong family bond among the mc club.

Fallon and Doc will have you turning the pages so quick, your kindle will have a hard time keeping up! If you love an over-the-top male character and a feisty strong woman, you need to purchase this book NOW! My rating for this book is 5-stars.

Sometimes the best thing ever comes after the worst.

I really liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable even though it dealt with domestic abuse and had some violence in it as well. The characters were easy to relate to and likable for the most part. Brad definitely deserved some comeuppance. While there is technically some cheating (which I hate) since Fallon was still married I was ok since he was refusing to sign the divorce papers. Doc and the rest of the club totally had Fallon’s back. Doc had been interested in Fallon since they had met at the diner. He had been getting to know her slowly when everything changed. Fallon needed help and Doc stepped up to care for her. The way that Doc and Fallon were when they were together was so cute. I loved their happy ever after. I recommend reading this book.

This is book number 5 in the Diamondback MC series and focuses on Doc (Cole) and Fallon. Fallon had been on the run from her abusive husband for nearly a year when he found her and beat her pretty badly. Cole had been slowly trying to get Fallon used to him before he claimed her as his but as soon as she lands in his care at the hospital, he knows that he is done bidding his time. I loved absolutely everything about this story and how perfect these 2 were together! Cole was exactly what Fallon needed and deserved after what her ex put her through and I'm so glad that Cole finally got his HEA! Now I am impatiently waiting on Rage's story! This series is sooooo good any I never want it to end!

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. In the previous stories in the series, we have learned snippets about Doc and his life. He finally gets his story and in it he is a force to be reckoned with. Fallon is a strong young woman who has suffered abuse. This time will be the last because she is being claimed. Fallon feels a lot for Doc, but she does not feel free. There is a lot standing in their way, but Doc and his brothers get rid of all the obstacles. I have enjoyed the books in this series. They might be short but they pack the full punch of emotion. I will hate to see this series come to an end.

Filthy is the one book in the series that will put you on edge while warming your heart. Fallon is married to a real piece of work, he started of with verbal abuse and move to hits. Looking to get away and start over only lead her to a trip in the hospital. Doc has noticed Fallon since she started at the diner, but when he took a closer look, realized that starting off as friends was the way to go.

Doc and Fallon's journey is one of ups and down that is enwrapped with danger, abuse, love, protection and family. Fallon is not only brought into the MC family from the other ladies, but especially by Monroe, Doc's daughter. This is a great addition to the series and one I have been waiting for.

If older, alpha, protective bad boys are your thing, this book is a definite must read! The writing was a little scattered which made it a bit harder to follow, so I deducted one but the story line gets 5 stars because it is so sweet. Cole (aka "Doc" is a doctor and member of the local biker gang. He has been getting to know Fallon at the diner she works at. One night she is attacked and saved by one of his club brothers and he is alerted to her situation and decides to claim her so that she is not only under his protection, but the club' as well. Their relationship journey is absolutely beautiful.

Fantastic story. Doc (Cole) was by Fallon when she woke up in the hospital. Fallon's husband had found her and almost beat her to death. Doc calls his daughter into the hospital to help him with Fallon and Monroe couldn't get there fast enough. These two fit together perfectly. Loved their characters and the relationship that they had going for them. Doc was so protective of Fallon and she just adored him. (I hope that Brad got what was coming to him cause it didn't really say). I have to check to make sure I've read the other book in this series. I can't wait to read the next story. First book I've read by this author and I totally enjoyed the book. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Fallon is fleeing an abusive ex and winds up working as a waitress near the Diamondback MC. Doc is used to patching up the MC members and knows Fallon is hiding from something. When she is hospitalized by her ex, her guardian angel needs to protect her by every means possible. The entire MC, members and old ladies, are called upon to help and their vengeance on the ex is sweet. Love the series and the characters are terrific and addictive. The storyline has plenty of drama, danger, fun times, new friendship and family and romance. The two are great together and bring out the strength and heart in each other. Can not wait to read more of this group.

Doc has spent most of his adult life splitting his time between being a doctor, raising his daughter, and being active in the Diamondback MC.
Fallon ran from her abusive husband almost a year ago, and has been working as a waitress at a diner that Doc frequents. They have been flirting a bit, though neither has made a move.
When trouble comes to town in the form of her husband and he’s out for blood, Doc and Fallon are pushed together and their relationship quickly moves along. Plenty of steam in the book. Loved seeing characters from previous books!

Filthy is the fifth novella in the ‘Diamondbacks MC’ series and features Doc (aka Cole) and Fallon. They meet at the local diner where Cole eats dinner every day and Fallon is a waitress. Fallon has fled her physically abusive husband but he manages to trace her and lay in wait for her one night where he attacks her and almost kills her. She is taken to the local A&E where Cole is on shift and he manages to coax her story from her. His protective side kicks in and vows to keep her safe.

It’s an age-gap romance, Cole is pushing 50, but they’re both hiding deep feelings for each other which eventually surface!

I really enjoyed Doc and Fallon’s story and can’t wait to read ‘Sinful’, the next installment which tells the story of the enigma that is Rage!

i read this book as part of an arc program. This is the fifth book in the Diamondback MC series. In this book, Doc sees Fallon in the ER and knows it is time to make his intentions known. Doc and Fallon have been flirting with each other for some time whenever Doc goes to the diner where Fallon works. Fallon was hiding from her abusive husband, but he found her and sent her to the ER. Doc is going to protect Fallon and has the whole MC behind him. Fallon is very happy with Doc and wants him to claim her, but he wants to wait until she heals. I really liked Doc's story. I love the way he cared for Fallon and took control of her problems. I love this series and this was another great one.

We finally get Doc's book and it was awesome! I loved Doc and Fallon. These two have been dancing round each other for a months but Fallon's past comes back with a vengeance and Doc is done waiting to claim is woman.

I received this book in advance for a voluntary honest review. Loved it!! Doc and Fallon‘s story is one that is sweet and relationship that was overdue for the sexy doctor. Fallon is running from her abusive ex and working at a local diner, once Doc sees her he’s done for. When her ex finds her and beats her again, one of Doc’s MC brothers saves her and brings her to Doc’s ER. It’s then that Doc can’t and won’t fight it anymore, he claims Fallon as his…to protect, love and cherish. I love all the Diamondback guys and can’t wait for Rage’s story.

The author has, once again, pulled us into the lives of the Diamondback MC members. Doc/Cole and Fallon have been spending time talking wile he eats at the diner and have become friends. When she is brought to the hospital after being beaten by her husband, Doc not only provides medical help but also provides help from the club. Will they be able to rid her of her husband or will he actually get close enough to beat her again?

This is Doc and Fallon’s story and it did not disappoint. Doc and Fallon had been dancing around each other for months but it takes Fallon coming into to ER after being almost beaten to death for him to finally decide she is his. I liked Fallon’s stubbornness but with Doc she let out her softer side. Her dad was hilarious. We got a glimpse of Monroe and Cannon in this story. I can’t wait for Rages story is next.

Loved this 5th in the MC series. Doc and Fallon are so sexy and hot together. Fallon's ex is a viscous mean abusive SOB that will not take no for an answer from Fallon. But Doc is right there to help protect her all the MC are there to help protect her. This is a fast paced gritty read with lots of action and love. I love that Fallon can stand on her own two feet and the Doc does not let her feel a victim. Love this MC series and so glad Doc finally gets his woman.

I knew Doc's story would be awesome and I was right! Doc is a silver fox to the nth degree. He has been getting closer to Fallon, visiting her daily at the diner. She loves how he makes her feel. But then she is brought into the ER beaten badly and suddenly, Doc is through with being patient. Her past has caught up with her. But now, instead of having to run again, she has Doc and the MC at her back. Fallon is feisty once she heals up and Doc is so sweet and loving. So freaking good, I don't want this series to end, ever!
