Knight's Ridge Empire #6.5

One Reckless Knight

Rate this book
I wanted to drown. I wanted the world to swallow me up whole and take me back to a time when everything was okay. A time when I hadn’t just buried the only father I've ever known. One where I’m not watching as my mother loses herself to her grief. One where the pain isn’t so insufferable. Everything in my world is a dull muted grey. I crave colour. Excitement. Recklessness. And that’s when he walks into my life. Tall, dark, handsome, and able to drag me from my own head for just a few hours of wild abandon. He’s the perfect one-night stand. But is everything as simple as that?

This was super hot. I’m in love with Toby and Jodie already, just in the brief time we’ve known them.

Tracy Lorraine

POV:Dual

Toby hasn't had a great life growing up.
Until recently the man he's grown up with isn't his biological father.  The man who's beaten and abused him and his mother all his life.

The man who had another family, a son - who is now dead who was in on the plan against Stella.
Toby has found his 'fathers' step daughter.
Let the games begin.....

After losing her half brother and step father within weeks of each other. Jodie's mum and stepfather weren't married. She didn't like having him around when she was little. But he was her brothers dad. He provided for them, loving, caring, towards them.
After his wake she goes out with her cousin, Brianna.
She needs to forget, only for the night.
The two of them meet a couple of guys that give them the night of their lives....

Great introduction to Toby's book.

In the previous books Toby has been through so much so I was drawn to him, heartbroken for him, and knew he harbored a lot of anger. I also knew this anger would then be projected on someone to get his revenge and in this one we see his intended target. Jodie is an interesting character and I’ll reserve judgment for later on but it seems she is struggling with direction in her life and after the tragedy she is needing an escape, but she never thought she would find it the way she does. It’s interesting to see how a night out takes a wild turn and becomes a very reckless one so I can’t wait to see what Toby has planned from here on out.

Phew....!!

That was....was....not short and sweet...so much short and steamy!!🔥🥵🥵❤️‍🔥

Featuring Theo as the birthday boy who has a surprise set up for him at Mickeys, driven there by a deviously smirking Seb!

Upon entering, he sees his wife, Emmie, and Sebs girl, Stella dressed in just sports bra and tiny shorts in the boxing ring, getting ready to fight..

Mickeys is closed for the night, so they're alone....

The more the girls fight and tease - knowing exactly what theyre doing with each move!, the more the boys get..uhhmm...fiesty!!!

A quick, fun, steamy, hot, dirty little novella that isn't essential to the main story but is fun to read!!

”Fuck. Bri was right.  This was exactly what I needed tonight.  “You taste like heaven,” he tells me, kissing along my jaw until he gets to my ear.  “And you feel like sin,” I counter.”

A titillating piece of temptation! One Reckless Knight provides an insight into the beginning of Toby’s revenge against his tormentor and Jodie’s desire to forget her losses for a night. Who knew she’d be whipped into marshmallow and lose herself to a knight. Question is will he be her white knight or is he a dark knight?

it was a good start to the series. although, i will admit the majority of the dialogue was cringy. i didn’t have a problem necessarily with the nickname “demon” but it was just overused. jordie made a comment about her cousin while she was in the same room that i found weird—i can’t give context without spoiling it—specially because she didn’t have a reason to say it. on fact, she said she wouldn’t go through with it, so it was confusing and unnecessary to be included. other than that, it was an interesting and spicy prequel to the series.

One Reckless Knight is the prequel to Reckless Knight the next trilogy in the Knights Ridge Empire series.

Toby is seeking revenge for the actions of his 'father' and the trauma he and his mother faced at his hands. He seeks out Jodie and has one reckless knight with her.

I still don't full see the draw or pull to Toby. He hasn't sucked me in yet, but as I've said before I have complete faith in Tracy. Based on the previous book boyfriends I've collected from her books I'm sure she'll have me hooked on Toby too.

Toby has been hurt, scorned, abused, and confused. Trying to deal with his supposedly biological father's betrayal and the secret family his father had on the side has Toby conflicted. Jodie is struggling with a loss of a brother and a father. She doesn't know how to help her mom through this grief. But one night out to try to forget everything turns into a wickedly desirable time. Jodie and Toby are hot off the press. Toby's story is going to be even hotter than what I had imagined.

Lots of steam!!!!

This book is an introduction to Toby and Jodie's story.... They meet at a club, well I'm thinking they already met before but they officially meet at the club, then 3nd up at a s*x club, where there is alot of steamy scenes, it's so hot.... I don't know what Toby is planning but he is definitely out for revenge and he has his eyes on his target.... Can't wait to see more of his plot....

Well that was unexpected. I did not think Toby had this dark, kinky bone in his body. But now I know, I think I like him even more.
I've always loved Toby as a character but after seeing this side of him, I think he'll become my new book boyfriend.
As always, Tracy drags you into this story and makes you not want to put it down.
Cannot wait for more Toby and Jodie!!!
5 star novella!!!

Well, Toby certainly showed his dark side in this prequel to the upcoming Reckless trilogy by Tracy Lorraine. After one thrilling night with Toby, Jodie Walsh has no idea what she’s about to get into. While Toby seems to have a plan, Jodie is excited about this new man in her life. Can’t wait to read what happens next in this dark, mafia romance series!

@tracy_lorraine_author wrote one hot as sin step brother trope.
It’s so short since it’s just a little prequel and It’s FREE!

Jodie and Toby are step sibling but Jodie has no clue to that fact or that she is being used as a pawn for Toby to destroy his “dad” further as revenge for what he put Toby and his sister through.



Storyline 🫀🫀🫀🫀🫀
Spice 💦 💦💦💦💦

I will fully say I think I underestimate Toby and his wicked ways. He is definitely just as bad as the other knights! My oh my, I’m excited to see his darker ways!

Definitely an attention capturing novella! I’m definitely making it clearer now, even though I said it for the first book of the Knights Ridge series, Toby is mine and I’m definitely not sharing after this 😈

This is a short but very spicy prequel to the Knight's Ridge trilogy involving Toby and Jodie. A night out at a club with friends turns into an intense and passionate tryst for the both of them. I loved the introduction to these characters and I'm excited to see where their romance leads. You can find this free short story to download on the author's website.

This was a steamy little tease of a story, which makes sense because it was a prequel to A Reckless Knight, Knight’s Ridge Empire Series. It went a little too fast and super dirty for how quickly they took us to the dark. It was definitely unbelievable…it may have been a mere appetizer for those of a dark and dirty storyline, but it was a bit too much for this gal.

Naughty Toby

What a great prequel to Toby’s story! He definitely is a changed man from the other interactions from the series. He’s called into that bad boy Alpha dominated man hell bent on ruining his already destroyed “father”. Tracy writes the hottest scenes but still delivers such an amazing storyline. I can’t wait to get into the rest of Toby and Jodie’s story.

I started with Corrupted Knight and went back because I was interested in Jodi story. Her story did not disappoint.

I wished I started from the beginning instead of towards the end. This is a great series.

The narrators on the Duet Style Narration did a great job.

I’m rounding my review up. I give it a 4.5/5. It’s definitely worth the credit.

Well darn, who knew Toby had THAT lurking?!?!?!

This is Toby & Jodie's first meet and to say there's fireworks is an understatement because these two are pure explosive!!

And that end scene, when Toby and Nico are getting breky and it all comes together?.....😳 No Freaking Way!

Loved it!!!!

Toby, Toby, Toby.

I thought you were the nice one. You surprised me in the best and worst ways. Poor Jodie has no idea what she is in for.

Personally, I think Stella may be very angry with you when she finds out.

OOOOOOooo this is one hot prequel! I personally didn't realize this book goes in the middle of the series, but I didn't need to read the others to understand. This book is H O T. It was a short read that had a little plot, but a whole lot of spice. Definitely cannot wait to read the series now.

This was longer and so I had enough time to appreciate this world better. The characters are all good and this definitely sealed the deal on my wanting to read more Tracy Lorraine and this universe.

Absolutely loved the reference to Christian Grey!

This prequel for Toby's and Jodie's story was probably the hottest out of them all! But the cliffhanger has me so confused! Cannot wait to delve into Reckless Knight

Toby's Mischief

Toby's world came undone in the prior series. This is his time to fight back against the man who does him wrong. His weapon of choice is going down her own rabbit hole. Yet, their first encounter is quite explosive. Enjoy.

Oh Toby went to the dark side!!! The good guy gone bad! Revenge will do strange things to a person, I just hope he hasn’t bitten off more than he can chew; Jodie might just bite back.
