4.5 starsHotness factor: oh yeah, it is f@ hot!I RECEIVED AN ARC IN EXCHANGE OF THE HONEST REVIEWAlright, I might be the only reader who watched less than 10 episodes Sons of Anarchy… It’s mostly because a schedule conflict but the depiction of women doesn’t help its cause! I’m fine with the guns, the killings, the drugs (well not really, but not my life choice). I can even embrace the beards and the leather fetish. As long as you’re a man, a MC is the place to be. As I say in many of my reviews before, women, we always get the raw end of the deal. In Devil’s Dust MC, we’re either wh**** or some biker’s property. Doesn’t it just make you think of the why and how? Why so much alpha male bravado? How can two people possibly fall in love in that world? My apprehension was the reason I never gave MC romance a chance. Boy was I proven wrong!This story revolves around Dani and Shadow. I would never say that to his face, but Shadow is a great stripper and p*** star name. I like Shadow, Sergeant-at-Arms for Devil’s Dust MC and I compliment the author for making him this dark and not holding back. His selfishness and his alpha male borderline abusive behaviour are right up my alley and fit with his lifestyle. Don’t hate the player, hate the game! Dani, Dani, Dani, only 21, she knows nothing about MC life so when sexy, dangerous looking Shadow came into her life… she was doomed. The thrill, the discovery of her own origin, handsome older man eye-f***ing her all the time, lust, lust, lust, lust… Their passion for each other heated up the pages. They called themselves damaged and Shadow kept saying that he didn’t deserve her. Dani, you should always listen to a man when he says such things! Being 21 sucks!But as this started as a suspense story, I kept searching for the poop (HIMYM reference). Was it just another romance novel about two broken souls finding each other blah blah blah? Seeing how Dani needed to mature a little to understand what mess she was in, if it was just about that this book would have been 3 to 3.5 stars to me. Hell no! I know a lot of people dislike cliff-hangers but I live for them! The ending is what made me like this book so much. The story didn’t completely make sense before that. No spoiler, just one line: hell has no fury like a woman scorned… oh, I will be getting the next book. I need to know what Bobby and Bull, my two favourite characters in that series, are up to. I’ll check on Shadow and Dani too! (Wink)
