First sentence(s):
My head is spinning, and my body feels like dead weight. I'm falling into everything, as if I were top-heavy, and can barely stand straight. I like my lips, and they tingle with an unusual sensation. I giggle and trip on my heels, falling right into a dresser.

Zombie sighting:
I zombie-walk toward my room, but when I'm a few feet from my door, Lip grabs my hand, tugging me towards his.

My two-bits:

This was my first read in this series which went alright as a standalone. I did not feel like I was missing anything.

It is also my first motorcycle club romance. After watching the first season of the TV show, Sons of Anarchy, I wanted to read a bit from this genre.

There was a balanced blend of story and sex in this one. The romance felt more lusty than romance-y which was fine for this genre and setting.

Got a little bit of the club life culture. But the focus was on the secrets each character held and how they eventually had to come to terms with the reveals and aftermath.

About the author:

M.N. Forgy was raised in Missouri where she still lives with her family. She's a soccer mom by day and a saucy writer by night. M.N. Forgy started writing at a young age but never took it seriously until years later, as a stay-at-home mom, she opened her laptop and started writing again. As a role model for her children, she felt she couldn't live with the "what if" anymore and finally took a chance on her character's story. So, with her glass of wine in hand and a stray Barbie sharing her seat, she continues to create and please her fans.
