About the author

A longtime escapist into books, M.A. Lee began writing cozy mysteries and romances when other sources of that gold ran out. The gold nuggets of Mary Stewart, Georgette Heyer, Andre Norton, Phyllis A. Whitney, and Elizabeth Peters inspired her to write her own nuggets, even if they're only pyrite.

Look for the Into Death series, set after World War I, and the other books in the Hearts in Hazard series.

Favorite Books of all Time:
Mary Stewart's My Brother Michael.
Mary Stewart's This Rough Magic.
Georgette Heyer's Venetia.
Ellis Peters' The Virgin in Ice.
Andre Norton's Year of the Unicorn

Authors that I will recommend beyond the influences and the favorites: Dorothy L. Sayers. Tony Hillerman. Tamara Leigh. Patricia Briggs. Lindsay Buroker. Linnea Sinclair. W.R. Gingell. Agatha Christie. C.J. Cherryh.

This is Bryson / Blaze and Remy’s story. Remy has had a tough life, and college is a chance for her to have a fresh start away from her past, and Blaze is a tattooed bad boy, who loves his family and his MC. When these two cross paths Blaze is intrigued by Remy, as she is not falling for his charms, and she makes him work to get her attention. When Remy’s past comes back to haunt her, she turns to Blaze for help and protection. This is a well written story which is dark, action packed, and with twists, suspense, danger, intrigue, family, drama, emotions, twists, and love, which leads to a riveting and addictive page turner.

I received an Advanced Reader Copy and am voluntarily reviewing it. This series starts off this a bang. I just feel like readers will be in for a wild ride with this series. Blaze Raven notices Remy right away. Remy is running away from an ex-boyfriend. Her and her cousin, June, moved to Hollow Cove to go to school. Blaze can’t get Remy out of his head. Though she is fighting it, Remy is attracted to Blaze as well.

Blaze decides to make Remy’s safety a priority when her ex-boyfriend shows up in town. Blaze refuses to let anything happen to her. His brothers in the club are more than willing to help him keep her safe. The Twisted Kingdom MC stands behind Blaze and Remy. Can Blaze convince Remy that he is a changed man? He will do everything in his power to keep her with him. I am in love with these men already. I can’t wait to see how the other brothers fall.

This was Blaze & Remy’s story. Remy Collins always played it safe. Known as the strait-laced, sweet southern girl, Remy is desperate not to fall into the troubled footsteps of her parents. So, she became the good girl. Blaze’ Brooks only loved two things: his motorcycle and his family bar. Spending his nights partying at his family's bar with his equally wild and reckless brothers, this tattoo-covered playboy enjoyed a life of booze, loose women, and his motorcycle club. After a chance encounter with Remy, Blaze finds himself intrigued by the mysterious girl who seems unaffected by his appeal. No matter how hard he tries, Remy doesn’t seem to fall to her knees for Blaze like all the other women he’s met. This was an intriguing read. And am voluntarily leaving my review.

Remy is trying to start over when she goes away to college - her ex-boyfriend was stalking her. Blaze meets her at a club, and warns her to stay away. He can't stop thinking about her. He's rough and tough, totally alpha, and a bit of an ass. Yet I'm drawn to him. Remy is smart and sassy, and not afraid to stand up to him. But she's still a bit leery of getting involved with Blaze. This is a really nice short book, centered around the MC. It's a slow-ish burn, with relatable characters. Great little afternoon read!

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. This book is going to take you for quite the ride. Remy wants a future fast different than her past. Blaze is happy to keep things in his life just as they are, until he comes across Remy. These two feel something towards each other but express it in different ways. Neither can forget the other though. When she needs him, Blaze is going to come thru for her. Things aren't going to be easy.

She is not falling for his obvious bad boy charms

Blaze is the first book in the Twisted Kingdom series. I originally read this book when it was first released but did not end up reading the series, not sure why exactly either. This book introduces the reader to the Twisted Kingdom world which is about four brothers, an MC and a family bar. This story is about Remy Collins and Bryson ‘Blaze’ Raven. I reread this book and got into it as much as I remember the first time. I even grabbed the rest of the series and dove into them all...enjoying the stories and the couples.

This part of the series tells how Blaze met and fell in love with Remy...aka Red. The struggles between a preppy college girl and a leather wearing tattooed biker makes it interesting. The bikers of Twisted Kingdom club have a reputation of drinking, women, fights and gambling. Blaze is the first of the guys to fall in love and change his life.
