I have been reading so many books lately that I have been so disappointed in I was beginning to think I was never going to find one that I enjoyed! Well it all changed with this book....This is a book I would call the romance a slow burn, if you are hoping the main characters are just going to jump in bed together you will be disappointed....but not to worry, there is plenty of steam later.Iris is a shy 24 year old that is very likable and stronger than she knows. Sheltered in many ways but logical. She is funny and will make you smile.....her inner dialog is believable and you cheer for her as she gets to know herself. The only thing I wish the author would have cut down on was how many times Iris was going to "throw up" or "barf"...that was a little over board....but the writing was great so I will over look that.Dex is a 32 year old ex-con, tatted up hotty, part time MC member who owns a tattoo parlor....he is grumpy and tense a lot....until Iris starts to wear him down, get under his skin and make him into a better man. I love their interaction, his patients with her and their growing attraction. The secondary characters are likable too.What I loved about this book was the growth of the characters and the chance to really get to know them. I was so worried that this was going to be a part one to their story but was so happy it was a complete stand alone....with the possibility of stories including the other characters....possibly Sonny?This is not a gritty MC book, they seem almost like big teddy bears most of the time.....there is language but not over board. It is just a well written book.
