Defiance was very unique read. I was pulled in right away and fell in love with the story. It was a dystopian biker book so it hit two of my favorite sub-genres. I will be honest and say some of it was a little similar to SOA but it didn’t bother me. ** Could contain triggers as it contains rape, sexual & domestic abuse.I liked Tru but sometimes I wanted to scream at her to stop being a spoiled little brat. She did put the MC and Casper in a bad situation and yet she didn’t seem to comprehend that at times. Her mouth did override her brain more than once but I liked that she didn’t cower to the men. She wanted change but at first wasn’t willing to do it herself. Towards the end she realized that she needed to start that change for women to be viewed different. She deeply loved Casper but she did seem to push him more than he needed.Casper had a pretty crappy life but he knew that if he waded through all the shi** they threw at him it would eventually be worth it. I liked the fact that even though he was treated so bad by his “brothers” he never let them turn him into a monster. He was a violent man but never towards women. He didn’t seem to be violent just for violence sake. It always had a purpose. It did seem like times that he was the only one who wanted the best for the MC but he never let the power go to his head. I did find it funny that I could find him romantic while being branded.I loved the secondary characters almost as much as the main character. Bishop and Matthias were hilarious. I thought Rebel had a huge heart and I loved that he tried to help the women. The main thing that bothered me was that all these men and woman could cuss left and right but when it came to the sex scenes the author didn’t use the same language. It was always referred as Tru’s sex but it was Casper’s di**. It just felt weird because they were crude in life but not in bed. It was a little unbelievable for me.
