Mackenzy Fox went all out with Rubble and Lucy's book. Not only did she create two characters who knew how to recognize their connection, but proved just how strong and just how willing they were to risk it all to be together and protect each other. Yet know how to respect each other's boundaries and when they need to communicate. I loved how Rubble always respected and made sure to tell Lucy how beautiful she was. Proving that underneath all that tough exterior and patches was a sweet man whose only dream was to find his place in the world and by Lucy's side. And Lucy proves to be a strong woman unafraid to speak her mind. Who loves to take charge in everyday life yet enjoys when a man takes full charge in the bedroom.
Rubble and Lucy are a different kind of blend of crazy in love. The book begins 6 years before the present day. We get to learn how exactly it is that they met, which turns out to be in a strip club called the Apple Pie. Where Lucy was celebrating her breakup and Rubble his birthday with his MC. From the moment their eyes met at the Apple Pie, there was an undeniable attraction. One they admitted to wanting to explore. They are both aware that Rubble's involvement with The Phoenix Fury MC was dangerous and could end up causing problems. Knowing this, they both continue to see each other and their attraction becomes explosive. Fast forward a bit and Rubble ends up going through something that forces him to take into perspective if being in the MC is worth losing his "Sparkles", his freedom, or his life.
Let's fast forward to 6 years now. We find out that Lucy and Rubble have now established their lives in a town called Bracken Ridge with the help of the Bracken Ridge Rebels MC, a legit and non-one percenter MC. With their help, they create their own business and learn what it means to truly have a family that is willing to protect them. Where they respect and protect their women and family, which The Phoenix Fury MC didn't. New problems arise when they find out that someone is trying to retaliate against the old members of The Phoenix Fury. They must try and figure out who is behind it all and what is happening while protecting their little family
