I have to say that when I heard Jamie Begley was pairing Evie and King, I was not impressed or interested. Honestly, I think a lot of her fans would agree when I say that I didn't see a future, as in a HEA, for the club girls. Although I did enjoy Sex Piston's story, I didn't feel it was in the same context as Beth's, Winter's, and Lily's stories. I will say I like Evie a heck of a lot more than the other club girls. Now with saying all this, King is phenomenal! Like Shade, it is a game changer in so many ways! I see changes coming for this series and I really look forward to them. Don't get me wrong, the core of this series, that the Last Riders are a family, hopefully won't change. However, as with life, as time goes on things will move on and change as well. Now about the story--King will surprise you. You get the chemistry you expect from this series as well as some history about some of the players. I loved this. You really get to know Evie and her reasons for living the way she does. All those glimpses of softness and sadness we got of Evie in other stories are all explained here. You also see what has been happening in the other couple's lives. You get more of Willa, Penni, Lucky and Jackal which I loved. There are some new characters introduced which 'stirs the pot' so to speak! As for King--well let's just say he lays it out for Evie. He is very blunt in his assessment of  the Last Riders. Whether you agree or not with King's harsh words, you do have to realize that  all of the Last Riders will do like Evie eventually does and make decisions about the way their life is going. Like I said before, game changer in every sense!!! So, if you have been thinking of passing this one up, DON'T. You need to read it to understand the direction this series is taking. You won't be disappointed.
