This is a decent MC read, which was throughly enjoyable. Great characters, great storyline, told in third person. Great connection between h&h, good sex scenes, respect for old ladies, respect for kuttes (hate some MC books when they get chucked on the floor - pet hate of mine), good feeling of brotherhood and family.
All of the above mentioned has rounded this first book up by Catherine Johnson as a very good read, reasonable price to at about £2.50 and over 450 pages long.
Definitely going to be reading books two and three.

This wasn't a bad book. It had a lot of good characters to wrap your head around. I really liked the background that the author went into around Samuel but I was confused on why she took a deep dive into Paul and Ashleigh's childhood. Neither deep dives added to the storyline - certainly not in the way that Samuel's did. Although Samuel's wife and Ashleigh's mother was a huge presence in the book, there was literally no explanation for her actions. I also had difficulty with some of the stretch in believability of her relationship with her daughter. And I won't even get into the whole thing of Ashleigh's profession. Stretched beyond believability. I'll most likely give the second book in the series a try because I'm still a sucker for motorcycle men.

Not for me.
While Paul and Ashleigh has ok chemistry right at the beginning, that slowly fizzled out for me. Once they were actually together I couldn’t figure out why they got closer seeing as they barely talked to each other and just had sex constantly.
This book was so unnecessarily long. For having a pretty simple and unremarkable plot this story DRAGGED. The introduction was so fucking long and tedious. The only intro that was actually beneficial to the story was Samuel’s and even then it could have been shortened.
This author took 20 pages to explain something that could have been said in a few sentences, a paragraph at the most.
Also what the hell was with all the slurs???? Racial slurs, homophobic slurs, ableist slurs....
While I understand we’re talking about criminals and dudes who don’t give two fucks about anything, it felt like the author used that as an excuse to slip in some fucked up opinions.
That definitely ruined what could have been an OK book.
