I don't think I can finish this book.  It's too disjointed and ridiculous.  It's like the author is reading the discussion threads and tried to write a book to meet everyone's desires, but you can't do that in a single book!  It just doesn't work; those elements do not fit together, and the book doesn't fill in enough background/supporting details to make it work.  Instead it jumps from scene to scene, feeling to feeling, and dialogue to dialogue hoping that you don't notice that each aspect is suspended in midair without connection to anything else.  The author throws plot devices on a page and hopes they make a full story, but they just make a discordant mess.  And there is a lack of transitions or details to bridge the different elements.  Like a puzzle where the pieces have been forced together from many different pictures and where there are still missing spots.It has a motorcycle club (MC). But not a mean one with cheaters and grit.  It's an MC with a heart of gold.  I don't need totally realistic MCs (in fact, I don't want them), but this one is so "nice" it's ridiculous.The H acts and talks like a KA hero, sort of, but without the fully developed character to make him smexy, attractive, compelling, or three-dimensional.The h is an appalling mash up of traumatized child, free spirit, match maker, love advice columnist, and brat.  Her attitude jumps around like pop rocks in a puddle of coca cola.I don't know if I can, or will, or want to finish this book.Edited to add:  I now know that I will not bother finishing this mess.  I'm 40% of the way through, and I'm deleting it now.  I wish I hadn't paid 99 cents for it, but I refuse to waste my valuable time reading it.
