A short story about a biker, should be a great read right?  You would think so, but for me it just didn't do it.  I could see this being the beginning of a series or a prequel to a story, but as a standalone?  No.  I get the concept of a short story, some have been great, but with one just did not make sense to me.  Clara is a preacher's daughter.  She's now in college and looking to get away from the "good girl" image that she has.  Her roommate is wild and crazy and finally convinces her she needs a night out on the town.Her roommate takes her to a biker bar to have drinks, it's here that her roommate leaves her behind with no ride home.  She's approached by a biker who offers her a ride.  He introduces himself as Jackson and after a long night of getting to know one another takes her back to the dirty bar for some quick sex before releasing her.So here's where my issues begin:#1 she gets on the bike with the guy and doesn't even know his name.  Being raised the way she was I have issues believing that she would just get on his bike and go with him.#2 If he's just interested in a quick lay, why would he take her to talk the entire night before just taking her straight back to the bar?Finally... #3 What happens after was just downright wrong to me.  I won't say why because if you happen to want to read this one on your own to find out what happens I won't ruin it for you.  But this one was just wrong on so many levels.For those that know me, you know I usually love reading and giving good reviews.  I love to give good reviews, but I just couldn't with this one.  Perhaps my mind might change if there is another book written after that explores what happens with Clara and Jackson after their first encounter, but like this?  It earns 2 stars from me.  I'm glad I got it for free because as a $2.99 novel it's just not worth it to me.
