Rating:  4.75 StarsI LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!  The story of Ben (The enforcer for The Mountain Skulls Motorcycle Club, detached, cool/calm/collective, alpha male, hates clutter, into control) and Eva (New business and home owner, detached loner, smart).Starting with the prelude, this book gets right to it.  It gives some insight into Eva's childhood and explains her issues.  From there, we get into The Mountain Skulls Motorcycle Club drama with a very raw scene involving Ben.  From this, we get to see Ben's other side, the side you do not want to mess with.  When Ben and Eva finally meet, the story provides the perfect balance between their relationship and the MC drama.  The MC drama was very exciting and it actually drove the story.Ben rocked!  He was honest, bad-assed, tender, rough, dominant and sweet.  When he decided he wanted Eva, he was going to have her no matter what. Push him away?  NO WAY!!  I really liked that his character remained the same throughout the story.  Kudos to Elayne DiSano for NOT turning him into a whipped guy.  He started out rough and ready and ended rough and ready.  Eva's character was everything that I liked in a heroine.  She did not deny feelings, lie, keep secrets, etc.  While she had concerns, she talked to Ben, listened and did not judge him or his lifestyle.  She was a mature, smart female.  I absolutely loved everything about this book couple!  They are going to be added to my favorite-couples shelf.Here's what I really enjoyed about this book:Raw and Edgy - Yes, the MC and Ben were involved in some uncool criminal activities, but the author did not try to sanitize or downplay this angle.  For me, it made the story more believable.  It's what the Skulls did.  It was the perfect balance of a Motorcycle Club who did some shady things but took care of each other and the town they lived in.Different/Non-Standard - Most books like this typically have the standard break-up because of a misunderstanding drama between the hero and the heroine.  Most books like this typically have the standard kidnapping the heroine and the hero has to save her drama.  Most books like this typically have the standard someone's after the heroine and the hero has to keep her safe drama.  None of the typical standard drama appeared in this book!  Different...the author did not give me anything that was predictable or standard in the world of book drama.  Thank you for keeping it fresh!!Why Not 5+ Stars?Edit, Edit, Edit!!!  There were missed quotation marks, missing and misspelled words, etc.  I tend to gloss over editing mistakes.  However, there were so many of them that I noticed and it became distracting.
