Crash is Crash and Shannon's story. We met Shannon in Outlaw. She was one of the women rescued. The mouthy, ballsy one. Later she showed her gratitude to Cole by giving him a huge check. Years later she's in need of the MC's help when she feels for her safety because of her stalking, controlling, ex-boyfriend. Crash agrees to let her stay at his place for a few weeks. But he's not going to let her get away with being a spoiled, pampered, princess like he believes her to be.From there Shannon becomes acquainted with MC life and there's a lot of push and pull between her and Crash. The sexual tension is great, I like that these two are getting to know each other. The timing is good as far as when they finally get it on but the story did drag on quite a bit. A lot of scenes could have been cut to make the story shorter. There were so many scenes that pointed out how hot Shannon was. Okay we get it!We had a few scenes from Niklaus' pov (crazy ex) that let us know he was getting closer to finding Shannon. By around the 70% point I was screaming, "Just find her already!" I was ready for some conflict by now. But we finally got to it and that played out predictably.I thought the scenes after were kind of strange. Shannon's dad was a real douchebag. The "four months earlier" scene served no purpose except to set up Shades and Skylar's book, I thought it felt out of place. I also wanted more details about Crash's hobby. It was introduced but then it didn't go anywhere.The beginning of this book was solid otherwise I might have given less stars. Outlaw was much better.
