The fifth installment of the Signal Bend series begins with Havoc grousing over the major changes to his Club and town lately. Irrationally he's decided to lay the blame at the feet of all the new women in his brothers' lives. To his way of thinking, chicks ruin everything. He is a true misogynist that basically thinks women are only good for one thing. When he meets the new singer in town Cory, all his theories are put to the test.This is one of my favorite biker series, but this installment tested me. My first impression of Cory was not favorable, mainly because her parenting style rankled in the beginning. Fortunately the further I got, the more her hippy dippy approach felt less foreign. My biggest issue embracing this novel was Havoc, actually. Normally I love the guys, and tolerate the heroines in most romance novels. This book was the exact opposite. Normally when you get an anti-social type of hero, scratch the surface, and the love of the heroine reveals something special. Instead Havoc has an alpha-hole shell, with an a--hole center.Despite my problems with hero, I could not put this down. The last couple of books explored the lull in the town, after the drama of [bookcover:Behold the Stars|19266169]. Well all you that were kind of bored with the calm, the storm is back in full force. The drama was responsible for adding a star to this review.
