Hard RoadsBy: Lily White5/5 stars*I was given a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.**Trigger warnings: kidnapping, rape, descriptive violence, horrific torture and murders.*I love MC romance/erotica, I love dark books & I love Lily White and M.S. Willis (she is both!) If you have read The Estate Series, there is a new devil that challenges Joseph and he is terrifying! Thinking about him sends my mind to a dark corner, rocking myself & drinking whiskey until I no longer care!Holly, a young woman born who was born into the Dominion MC, is the daughter of Joker, the club president. In her early 20s Holly lost her mother and her father essentially stopped caring for and about Holly. She has lived the hard life and has seen things that no child should have ever seen. She is tired of the life and wants out.J.D. Brooks is man looking for a way out. A way out of a debt owed to his motorcycle club, Hell’s Rebellion which has changed so drastically it is no longer the club that he grew up in. He has one last mission and then he can leave the Hell’s Rebellion for good. His mission is Holly.Unbeknownst to Holly, her dad & the Dominion MC, she has a price on her head…that has nothing to do about her, and all to do about her father. When Holly thinks that her life has already hit rock bottom, J.D. comes along to prove her wrong. His mission is to kidnap Holly and deliver her to his club president.But they meet trouble on their journey as Hell’s Rebellion is not the only club that wants to use Holly as leverage against Joker. There may also be a cartel or two that wants to get a piece of her. And they aren’t going to make it easy on J.D., Holly or Joker.It pains me for what Holly went through and experienced. There are some extremely dark scenes. She could have made things a little easier on herself if she could have kept her mouth shut and not fought back and avoided some of this pain, but she is a biker and we know they don’t back down or give up.J.D. is too focused on his goals to be real and truthful with himself about what will happen to Holly. He could save her, but that would mean a delay to his endgame. He rightfully so, feels guilty for the part he played in the destruction of Holly and wants to and tries to right that wrong, but he could be too late not only for her physically but mentally as well.“In the end, it doesn’t matter how our paths intersect, because when it comes down to the basic truth of our lives… we’re all stuck traveling down hard roads.”
