Nice start to a new MC series
Hawk is the first book in the new Road Rebels MC series. After a horrific gun battle with The Devil Saints, a rival MC, that ends in massive bloodshed, the Road Rebels MC family is devastated over the loss. Both Hawk and Sydney lose their fathers in the shootout. Left heartbroken and crushed over the death of the only parent who raised her, Sydney spends a final night with Hawk and leaves without word the next morning. Hawk hasn’t forgotten about Sydney and the fact she’s taken his heart with her.
Fast forward six years later, Sydney shows up at Hawk’s house with a surprise, their daughter Emery. Sydney isn’t forthright with Hawk about the reason she’s come back, but clearly she is on the run from the fallout that happened to another bike gang in California, and looking for protection from Hawk. Still, trouble follows Sydney to Hawk’s doorstep, and it has the potential to ruin the Road Rebels and the only family Hawk has known. Can Hawk forgive Sydney for abandoning him and the MC family? Can he forgive her for betraying him about the knowledge of his daughter?
Hawk is another steamy MC romance that deals with second chances, regret, and hope for family. It has potential to be a good series. There is an inconsistency about Hawk’s mom at the beginning of the story that mentions she died giving birth to Hawk, but then towards the end she’s actually alive in Ferndale. And the word “giggle” was a bit overused. For Sydney being raised in the MC family, I thought she would have been tougher, or more resilient. She really wanted a normal life for her and Emery, yet made some bad choices to stay away from that lifestyle back in California. I liked Hawk, but Sydney, not so much. Lots of steamy scenes. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
