Being the son of the Rugged Skulls MC president, I was always held to a high standard in life, in the club. But when me and my brothers set out to start our own club business, things got a whole lot better.
I’m the type of guy who gets what he wants, when he wants it. I’m a club brat, and a fully patched member, but what I live for is the hunt.
Women usually throw themselves at me. That is, all but one woman, who had the balls to say no to me back when we were younger. Events over the years have had her keeping me at arm’s length.
Now, with a helping hand from Fate herself, a new path is drawn, but my woman doesn’t know it yet.
She will be mine. I will win—with a Royal Flush.

3 ⭐⭐⭐ - OK decent reads.
======================
Our heroine suffered a lot and was traumatized by the bullying she suffered at school because of the hero. She has never gotten over the trauma and is really insecure about being overweight. The author tries to convey the idea of a heroine at ease with herself, but soon everything falls apart. I got tired of scenes and more scenes where people attack her because of her weight. I get it... enough of that. He also doesn't help much and is actually very immature.

“Of course you are. Remember, Royal, no glove, no love. You wrap that snake up, got it?” “Yes, ma’am.” I salute, even though she can’t see it.

Jack has a scar under his left eye, which he got from the bitch who birthed his son, my nephew, Dominic.

“Your woman? Fuck off, man. A chick her size is only good for a paid fuck. No one would want her otherwise,” he says smugly.

Royal Masters will never get into my panties, and that is a damn shame, because I bet he is a beast in bed. But he isn’t mine, and he never will be. That’s something I learned a long time ago.

Oh, Tree Winslow, you are in for a treat when we get back home. Little did I know that the treat would be big. For both of us.

And yes, I said she was my girl. She just doesn’t know it yet. For years, I fucked my way through the states, not giving a fuck about the consequences, because every chick knew what they were getting into when they spent the night with me.

“Are you fucking kidding me right now? I know you, Royal. I know who you are. You like to sleep around, so sleeping with one woman for the rest of your life is not something you want or are capable of doing. Fuck me.”

“I bet you loved this, didn’t you? Sharing this with your brothers from the club, having a good ol’ laugh at my expense. Oh, I have no doubt you won a bet by having sex with me, right? Who can fuck the fat chick first? Shit, you’re all the same. Men like you never change, Royal. Just leave. You aren’t welcome here,” she sobs.

“Have you been having sex with other women since Vegas?” I ask with my hand over my stomach, preparing for the worst.

“Listen, I haven’t touched anyone since I found the certificate and rings. You can’t hold that shit against me, Tree.” He steps forward, trying to touch me, but I recoil.

Before then, I did fuck three girls, but in my defense, I didn’t know I was married.

Lois is leaning against the bar, her jeans hugging her every curve, the tank top barely containing her huge fake tits that her daddy paid for. She’s flirting with one of the prospects behind the bar. Usually, that sight would piss me off, but I feel nothing, and I know that when I tell this chick that I won’t be fucking her anymore, she will blow the hell up.

“She isn’t speaking to me because I admitted to her that I fucked other women after we got married.”

“You cheated on your wife?” she grinds out, glaring down at me. “We brought you up better than that, Royal,” Dad calls to me,

She was in my thoughts for days after, even when I was fucking the three other chicks. I compared them to her.

“I’ve seen the women Royal fucks, and they look nothing like you. He likes his bitches with big fake tits, not the flabby shit you have going on.” He reaches for my breast, and I slap his hand away.

Since I found out that I was married, I ended things with her, and she was fucking pissed, but it had to be done.

Lois’s family carry a lot of weight around here, and I know they can and will cause trouble for me and my family.

“Please, don’t ever refer to yourself as ‘daddy’ around me.”

The shit I took after just one interaction with you was the worst. That was why I stayed away from you. You were a nice guy, Royal, but I’m sorry to put a dent in your little ego, but you weren’t worth the hassle of the teenage cruelty I had to suffer.”

Being bullied stays with you. It marks your soul, but you heal, and it fades until the beast rears its ugly head and makes you feel the pain and torment again.

To him it was all a fucking game. A sick twisted game. I bet he is at the clubhouse laughing it up with the boys, talking about how much of a fool I am.

“No, she said things that only Royal and me knew. He must have told her like she said.”

I liked this one. The H sleeps with three other women days after a drunken romp with the h in Vegas and before he knows they got severely wasted and got married in Vegas. So, basically he doesn't know he got married to the h till he finds the rings and marriage certificate in his bag after sleeping with other women and he feels bad coz that's not the way he was brought up. He stays faithful and takes his marriage seriously and pursues the h. I liked that he was possessive of his h. The poor h had trauma and trust issues because she was bullied at school for her plus-sized body.

Honestly this wasn't as good as the reviews make it. This is basically the whole book in my opinion.

H Royal: "Hahaha! I'm such a slut. I can get any woman I want. Haha!" "God, I love myself. Hahaha!"

h Tree: "I'm so fat. I hate myself. No! I love myself." " I'm doing all women kind a fucking favor by fucking this man "

I understand she was bullied, but it was the whole book. Classic mean girl with blonde hair, fake tits, and lip filler picking on the fat girl, who everyone actually loves and wants to be with. Drunk and married to H Royal in Vegas without knowing until Royal finds marriage certificate and rings in his bag.

I'm really unlucky with MC books as of late. Completely sexually motivated and hardly any plot.

Sorry 😐

Safety: though married, H and h have forgotten because of alcohol. If anything we can always blame it on the alcohol. Anyways, Royal sleeps with 3 women in one week after back from Vegas. Yeah, he get's around. Refer to top. Once he sees the marriage certificate he stops and goes after h. The whole thing was unfeeling. There was lust, but it got tiring. Also, author is trying too hard to show she's woke. We have a bisexual MC man who's basically a whore because he is bisexual and can't keep it in his pants because that's how bisexual people are. At least that's how I read it anyway 🤷. Just overall not done well. I will try the next in the series to see if it get's somewhat better.

Wow !!! That’s how u start a new series. As the son of the president Mc you can’t trust nobody with your heart. So when royal bumps with tree in Vegas. All bets are off. Tree knows she’s a big beautiful girl. So she knows she’s out of her league with royal. With misunderstanding and lies. They have a rocky start. But royal being his father son, he can’t and won’t walk away from tree .

Solid start

I really enjoyed Royal's book, a lot of sex scenes, angst, and lots of lovely build up of the characters in the series. It didn't feel as much an MC read as first generation but I feel this may change as the stories progress. Eager for the next book.

Bullies never win

Tree had a crush on Royal since school but because of bullies they never came together. See Tree is a Big Bold and Beautiful girl but because she was bullied. Then once chance night in Vegas they get drunk and had sex. Unknown to Tree they also got married.

Their relationship as alot of up and downs but they get their HEA.
So nice to read that this generation are the same has their parents.

Royal is Book 1 in the Rugged Skulls MC Next Generation
I think Royal is my favourite Rugged book to date. Don't get me wrong I love all the Rugged men and women but Royal is the perfect mix of Magnum and Risky. I have created his voice in my head and dayum.
The story is beautiful because it's so real. As a bigger girl, I feel Tree in my bones and I love that Amy wrote her as strong, stubborn but vulnerable and messy too.
These two are so good together the push and pull feels so real, it hurts my heart in the most delicious way.
I can't wait to meet the rest of the next generation. I think we're in for one hell of a ride!

-Royal and Tree-

My god. Royal is as strong and cocky as his father and as fierce and “risky” as his mother. I could not wait to read this book. Once I found out that this book was about Risky and Magnums boy, I was supper excited.
Royal did not disappoint! He is as sexy and dirty in bed as his father 🤤💦
Now as for Tree. My girl. As a fat woman myself, I fell in love with her so quickly. To read about a hot, sexy, tall, and handsome man loving a woman for the curves and extra skin she has, is everything to me.
I love that Royal stood up for Tree at every turn. He never let anyone talk bad about her, no matter if they were family or not. He is Magnums son, after all.
I can’t wait to see the next generation of Rugged Skulls call “Dibs”!!

Kept my attention and I'll probably continue the series. Im kind of annoyed that after all the threats given, nothing actually happens to the OW 🙄

I enjoyed this. The going backwards and forwards between them went on slightly too long, but it was a solid story with a great couple.

This is one of the most childish books I have read with OTT women wanting the mc Royal and calling the MFC Tree fat.

The two knew each other in HS and Royal liked Tree and paid her some attention which cause super bullying especially by one OW Lois. So Tree distanced herself and also Royals rep if sleeping around did not help.

Fast forward they all happened to be in Vegas Tree and Royal fuck multiple times and get married. They both leave and Tree shows up at Trees sister’s wedding to drop the news they are married.

Royal liked Tree so much that after their hookup and the best sex of his life he does not bother to try and talk to her or get her to continue to see him instead he gucks 3 other women the week after they marry and only stops when he finds a video on his phone of them fucking and a marriage certificate.

Ya that makes me believe he loved her and wanted only her NOT. One of those women he fucked was the bully who was still bullying her at her family’s diner where she worked. He had some sort of relationship with her that he felt the need to break it off with her. It just was so OTT all the women wanted him all of them called her fat and plain. They had misunderstanding but the fact that he wanted her for years and finally had her but fucked 3 women after her with no thought of going after her I was like hell no. Plus no talk on STI testing. Very childish writing and behaviour. I would have been more behind things if he had not fucked others and the OTT moments were just silly. One of the man whores here had a ONS and Royal comments that he had not touched anyone since yet he could not do the same after finally getting the girl he always wanted. Especially that he ever fucked her bully who he knew was a nasty person. Did not like his character and the whole crap from Tree how she would be his last tossing out info about their sex life. Again silly and stupid.

Eyes

Ok here we go. I think there might be something wrong with these characters eyes. They all are always winking. "I turned & winked at her." " I see him wink at me." Seriously, stop with all the winking! Go go an eye Dr. & get that checked out. I think this book could have been really great but she was so immature. I get how being bullied can be a traumatic experience but she claims to have grown up & accepted her self as she is, yet as soon as there's a slight breeze she folds. Not only does she do that but then she turns & runs away! I can understand the first time because she was unsure if it was real or not ( which FYI we never read that she sees the certificate) but after that it takes strangers to tell her to woman up & talk to him!? Even after her family has told her that?! Speaking of family who in the world let's their kids get away with that!? Yes they were adults but that's your family & you just let it happen? You know how they are yet you still invite them?! I could go on & on but I don't one reviews that are as long as the book. My 2 stars are probably more generous then it deserves with all the typos. I wouldn't recommend & won't be continuing with the series.

Bullying is not one of my favorites to read. I just had a hard time buying into all of that nonsense with the rat squad. They are adults!!! Get over yourself!

Tree was a bit too whiny IMO. She was portrayed as this strong confident woman who was happy in her own skin. Where in reality she was beat down by the bullying. She kept running away instead of talking. Give the guy a chance to explain! If Tree stopped jumping to conclusions maybe they could have avoided all of the negative feelings that were brought on by Lois. Communication is key!!!!

I love when authors write about the next generation of the characters. To see where their lives have taken them now that they are grown.
It did take me a minute to remember who each of the men were. I knew the twins were Risky and Magnum but I couldn’t for the life of me remember who Maverick’s parents were. Three quarters through the mystery is solved 😉.

There were some minor editing issues but something that can be overlooked. For the most part it was an ok read. I still think the OG’s books were better 🤷‍♀️

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
Royal is the first book in the ‘’rugged skulls MC next generation’’ series.
This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. This book is Royal’s book who is the son of Magnus and Risky’s son (from rugged skulls MC).
When Royal and Tree bump into one another in Vegas they don’t expect to leave married. Unbeknownst to one another, they wanted each other in school. Years later and a chance to be together, will it all work out?
The chemistry between Royal and Tree is clear to see and I loved them together. Their relationship had it’s ups and downs but they were well suited.
I hated Lois!
I liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I cannot wait for more books from this series.

Good start to new series

This is the first generation series of the Rugged Skulls MC and it starts with Royal, who is the current Prez’s son. With Risky as his mom, you know he is going to a wild one.
Tree is the heroine and they have know. Each other since they were little and in school.
I enjoyed the storyline and the NSFW scenes were on fire. I love seeing the second gen coming of age and there are many other books alluded to in this one.
Here is my disclaimer: while these books are good, I think they could really become AMAZING with the help of a good editor or Beta team. There are some grammatical and spelling errors and there are also storyline/detail issues that need to be fixed. The writing is fantastic and the ideas are wonderful - with a few tweaks and guidance by the right folks, it would take these books and stories to the next level.

Here’s to the Royal Flush

You just never know who has a crush on you, Tree would never have believed that Royal Masters the school heartthrob, gorgeous, popular and son of the MC President but he really did, he stayed away from her to save her any more of the bullying she endured when he showed interest and she believed what she was told that it was all a bit of a laugh and making fun of her. Tree had no idea most of the lads fancied her, she’s a beautiful curvy woman and has grown to love her body but the bullies words can still get to her. The shock of not just having a one night stand with the man of her dreams but the revelation that he isn’t letting her go brings back all those insecurities, is it just another trick? For he’s part this man is like the cat who got the cream, he has his woman finally

Excellent

Loved reading the orginial Rugged Skulls Mc and Now seeing all the kids grow up and reading what is happing.... epic. We start of with Royal, who has known Tree all her life. But Tree has had a hard time of it at school with all the bullying. Young women put her through hell because of her figure, but now after a night in Vegas Royal and Tree find themselves married.
Only Tree finds it hard to believe after all this time, and it seems like there is a certain person who is also staking claim to Royal and it just seems with one thing after another. Can these two souls get over everyone and just live their lives?

A great story not to be missed, i really loved reading this!!

This is the first in the next generation series, and this is Royal and Tree’s journey. Royal is the son of the president of his MC, and trust does not come easily to him. Tree has been traumatized by her past where she was bullied at school thanks to Royal. Royal wants Tree, but she makes him work for her attention. This is a well written story which has misunderstandings, lies, twists, challenges, family, loyalty, insecurities, emotions, trust, determination, and love, which leads to an addictive page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

I couldn’t make it past the second chapter without stopping several times. So far other than her family and the H, every single person the heroine has come in contact with has make a remark about her being disgusting, etc. because of her size. The guy at the bar, the groomsman, the bridesmaid, another girl working at the wedding while talking to the H, her own cousins at the wedding. I mean come on. This is ridiculous at this point. And written in such a juvenile way. They don’t even sound like conversations between adults. Closing the book now and moving on. I feel like I’m reading a bad parody written by middle schoolers.

This was the first book that I have read by Amy Davies. I loved the plotline and that the main character Tree is a beautiful and voluptuous woman. It's a favorite read for me. I loved that Amy Davies's writing style and it had me hooked form the beginning. It's a fast paced read but has a dynamic relationship between Royal and Tree that makes the story a great one. The relationship overall has its ups and downs which makes it feel realistic. I loved this book so much and I can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Royal & Tree

Omg I love these two. Royal has wanted Tree since high school, but because of people always picking on her he stepped back and she thought it was because of her. Years later she gets her man after a wild night in Vegas. These two have some hurdles to get over, but in the end they get their happily ever after. Amy has once again drawn me into the world of the Rugged Skills MC and I loved every minute of it.

Royal: Rugged skulls MC- next generation #1

Tree and Royal knew each other since high school,but never became a couple. After years later they finds themselves married in Las Vegas,after being drunk. Royal realizes that he in love with Tree, but they both have overcome trust issues. I enjoyed the storyline , it was interesting and heartbreaking with the other couples in this series.

Enjoyed it.

New author to me. Enjoyed this book. Reason for four star was the grammar and spelling mistakes. Tiny bit of proof reading would have upped it to five. I did want to bash Royal and Trees head together often, moreso Tree however I do understand the insecurities of weight. Loved the camaraderie between the family. I will go back and read the OG Rugged Skulls after I finish the next generation series.
