Blood Moon Riders Motorcycle Club #5
Thunder Moon
Corruption is thick in Blood Moon Riders MC. In an attempt to curb the destruction reaped by the Trillium Moon, the motorcycle club packs up to move once again but morale has taken quite the hit. Especially surrounding Hellebore, and their newest member, his new mate Cherry.
Sitting in the dark, Hellebore watches as his traumatized girl slips further and further into herself. What is it going to take to draw her back into the land of the living? Could the discovery of their third mate be the missing ingredient to save the fae from slipping into the void?
Peach expects trouble when the Blood Moon Riders MC come rolling into her shop, she just wasn’t quite expecting them to blow up the business she built from scratch. What's a solitary sigil witch to do when she gets sucked into a battle with the gods? Imagine her complete surprise to discover not one but two goddess given mates riding with this troubled group of warriors set to destroy her happy little slice of New Orleans.
Finding your soulmates should be the most joyful experience of your life, but Cherry only seems to feel pain. Peach knows that if they don’t complete their bond, Cherry will be doomed. Can she and Hellebore help their mate find a way through her darkest night to face a new dawn? Or will they lose the troubled fae to the darkness forever?
To reach their Happily Ever After, Hellebore and Peach cannot do it alone. It’s going to take the support of the entire Blood Moon Riders MC to show Cherry that even from the darkest phase of the moon, a new cycle will soon be born.

'Magic, mayhem & more, Thunder Moon is the thrilling fifth instalment in a series which has been promising from the outset.' - TheBritishBibliophile_
Thank you to Mariah Thayer and K.O.Newman for sending me an ebook Advanced Readers Copy for me to read and leave an honest review, as a part of their ARC team.
------------------------------
Mardis Gras, Voodoo, soul food, New Orleans has it all. Now it has another great thing about it to add to the endless list, and that's Thunder Moon by Mariah Thayer and K.O.Newman. New Orleans is about to be taken by the handlebars by the BMRMC, and all that has followed them on their journey to the root of the plague upon their house, so to speak.
The story so far has taken us through four previous adventures, they are:
-Crow Moon (Crow & Hex)
-Pink Moon (Justice, Dom & Reno - MMF)
-Flower Moon (Poppy, Firestarter, Daemon & Gryphon - MFMM)
-Hot Moon (Ajax & Lash - MM)
and now Thunder Moon, a MFF/FFM supernaturally paranormal romance adding another two the BMRMC. We briefly met them at the end of Hot Moon, but here in this read is where they all got centre stage, and where we see them come into their own. A trio is formed.
So, who exactly are the trio I speak of? One, you have already met. Welcome back to Hellbore, our leading man this time around and with him is Cherry. Joining them, is Peach. Two delicious fruits for a hungry man with an insatiable appetite for all things sweet and juicy. As for the fruits themselves? Well they're more than happy to have their juices drunk. Nuff' said.
Hellbore, Cherry and Peach are joined by the rest of the BMRMC--and a few others--to try and get to the route of their ever-growing, unrelenting problem that has fallen upon their chapter. The end is in sight and is deliciously close, but things are far from over just yet. Their time in New Orleans has brought them closer to the conclusion and hopeful end to all their chasing across the country, perhaps allowing them to FINALLY put down roots and be a nomad chapter no more. Who knows. Anything is possible.
Including...spicy scenes!
If you've been reading either Mariah or K.O. for a while--or even for a little while--you'll know neither lady shies away from getting down into the deeper part of the 'down and dirty', when it comes to their spicy scenes. You know the ones I'm talking about. When the RV's a rockin', don't come a knockin'. Bravo to whichever lady wrote those scenes! Double if both had a hand in them at some point. Mariah & K.O. have yet failed to produce a less-than-spicy scene in any of the books in this series, but the ones in this novel have to be my personal favourites yet. Yes, I said favourites. Hellbore is not a one-and-done kind of man, I'll have you know.
Wham-bam-and wham-bam-thank-you-ma'ams again aside, what a character we have in Hellbore! Yes we're getting a badass biker we'll know and love, but we're also getting a gentleman in the same big black biker boots, too. His patience, understanding and determination make him one hell of a container for a BMRMC favourite man. Cherry is one for those readers--like myself--who takes a little more time to come out of her shell. Done at her own speed in her own time, once she's out of said shell, she's to be treasured and appreciated for the person she is, was and will be. As for Peach? A firecracker from the start. The extrovert of the bunch (to Cherry's introvert & Hellbore's ambivert natures), what you see is what you get and there's nothing standing in her way to protect those she loves, mates or not. A powerful trio if ever there was one, these three.
The plot quite literally thickens, here with Thunder Moon . We're not quite at the end of the adventure yet, so there was plenty of room to expand and explore all manner of possibilities of what could happen before the focus would shift to where we'd be moving on to next. New Orleans is known for its flair, unbridled magic and a deep outward reflection of all things voodoo and supernatural. What Mariah & K.O. do here with this story, is reflect those very things while combining it with their band of badass bikers and bitches to create a thrilling, passionate and hardcore entertaining story. Granted, I've only been to New Orleans for a week just over seven years ago, I can say this with my heart and soul as an outsider with an unbiased view of both the city, and the writing capabilities of both authors.
The BMRMC and the focus on Hellbore, Cherry and Peach in this novel was a read that was the very definition of 'entertaining'. In all honesty, I didn't want this chapter of the BMRMC journey to end so soon. I was having such a lovely time emerging myself back into the New Orleans scene through the visual picture Mariah & K.O. painted with their words, I didn't want to leave. This place truly captivated me the moment I stepped out into it the morning after I arrived, so I can't be more grateful to the authors for choosing this place as a stop on the journey to the climax of all climaxes.
And I can't wait to get there!
Brilliant job as always, you two. Thank you for putting what clearly is both of your hearts and souls into a read full of both.
Five stars!

Thunder Moon
ARC Review
I have loved this series from the start, but this was the book I wanted all along. I love a broken character, and I absolutely loved the dynamic between Cherry and Hellebore. Then add Peach and it was amazing.
There were a few things I wished there was more of. I would have enjoyed a little more of the healing scenes. And of course, I'm not a fan of the multiple single POV. As I've complained about before, I seriously need a character list.
This book could have been a little more in-depth and have more character development for me, personally. But I'm sure most readers will be happy with the pace of this book. The twist of emotion at the end was different from the previous books, which was nice. While slightly predictable in places, it wasn't boring.
Overall, I loved the concept of this book, and the plotline. I absolutely loved the characters. I'm super excited to see where the story goes.

oh my pants
Ok I don’t even have enough words for this story. First Cherry finds herself after the hell they saved her from. Hell broke all stereotypes and is by far my favorite male in the series so far. And Peach - swear to heaven.
Just buy the book and thank me later.

Thunder Moon is the fifth book in the Blood Moon Riders Motorcycle Club: Nomad Chapter series co-written by Mariah Thayer and K.O. Newman. This book is told in multi POV and is Hellbore, Peach and Cherry’s story. Yes this is a ménage book and yes it’s an MC romance so if you are a close minded pearl clutcher… move along … this one isn’t for you. If you are looking for a steamy sweet book with a throuple and a little bit of blood and violence mixed with magic - strap in because it’s a wild ride!
I cannot rave enough about this series. Kat and Mariah are such a force to be reckoned with. Their writing styles blend seamlessly together and weave an incredible storyline. The world building is top notch, each book in the series unfurls the plot like a flower blooming in the sun. Each book introduces us to new characters and new drama but it is so easy to follow along. Hellbore is definitely one of my favorite characters. He’s a sassy and filthy mouthed biker but his soft side is swoon worthy. Peach - ugh.. I want to be her when I grow up.. this woman just screams Big D!c|< Energy to me and I love it. Cherry makes my Mama Bear protective energy kick in to high gear, and I love how strong she is. If you’ve read Kat’s books before (if you haven’t WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR) Hell and Cherry 100% give me Les and Cherry vibes. Not just having the same name, but how they have to deal with life altering traumatic events. This one will pull at the heartstrings. Thunder Moon was much more of a slow burn story and honestly to me had a more sweet romance feel compared to the previous books. That’s not to say there wasn’t steam because holy cannoli is this throuple H O T! The book flowed so well and I couldn’t put it down. I love how the story is unfolding and I can’t wait to see what happens when the Nomads get to their next stop. If MC’s, witchy vibes and Fated Mates are your thing, you will fall in love with this book just like I did! Great job as always ladies!!

This is Book 5 of Blood Moon Riders Motorcycle Club: Nomad Chapter series; following Cherry, Peach, and Hellbore. Together they are the trio of a FFM menage romance. It has plenty of angst, hurt, and emotion. There are great personalities, Peach is fiery, Cherry is finally healing and Hellbore is amazing. This is a wonderful addition to this series.

I found the story to be a very good read.
The story flowed really smoothly and the plot was very well written.
Lots of MC action and suspense are bountiful.
The chemistry between the two lovers is romantic and intense.
I would recommend this book to anyone who reads this genre.
