You had me at Motorcycle Club!June Shellmound was young when her father left and her mother gave up taking care of her and her two siblings. Luckily she has friends whose parents were able to help her. She grew up smart, innocent and clean. She earned a scholarship to UC Berkley then joined the Peace Corps. She had signed up a few times by this point, loving the work she did in Africa until she received a phone call saying her mother was very ill. Why she had to be called home from Africa when she has two siblings who lived within miles of their mother, oh that’s right they wouldn’t lift a finger to help Ingrid.Lytton Driving Hawk grew up on the reservation believing his whole life that he was pure Apache. It wasn’t until college when his mother had to provide his birth certificate to the MIT scholarship committee that he learned the truth. His mother is Apache but his father is Cropper Illuminati. The man who raised him, who gave him his last name, Kino Driving Hawk was just a stand in. Mom couldn’t face the tribe having willingly had sex with an outlaw motorcycle rider.I have to be honest when I first started reading this book I HATED Lytton. He is a pig of the worst sort. Only thinks of himself, uses and abuses women (well not physically). A real dirt bag of a man. I could not imagine that there could be any salvation for him in this book. Since the book is written from both of these characters points of view, I had difficulty reading every other chapter. But I suppose it was the author’s intentions to make him despicable. There is some violence in the book so be warned. It’s not constant, but it is there and it plays a fairly big part of the plot. This book does revolve around an outlaw motorcycle club, so don’t expect sunshine and roses. Other than hating the male character for most of the book, I enjoyed it. The author continued the story of the characters from the first book, Ford, Maddie, Turk, Bobby and other members in the MC were highlighted. It’s good to see how things have moved along for them. There are also some H-O-T sex scenes which is always a plus. I give this book 4 stars with 3 hands down the pants.Review copy provided for an honest review.
