Synopsis
After spending the last two years stuck behind bars for a crime she didn’t commit, Harlow ‘Princess’ Gavelson’s time inside has finally come to an end, and she’s ready for revenge. Unfortunately, being the daughter to the Vice President of the Ravage Motorcycle Club cuts into her plans, as orders must be followed. Trying to settle back into this life is proving difficult when the tables are turned and the woman who framed her is out for blood. Lucky for Princess, growing up in a MC has taught her how to hold her own.
After spending years in hell overseas, Donavon ‘Cruz’ came home to lose the very thing he went into hell for, sending him to the darkest moments of his life. Joining Ravage two years ago was his safe haven, and he protects his family at all costs.

Tough as nails, and taking no crap from anyone, he’s captivated by a woman who could handle this life. Trying to meet the needs of the MC business and follow his heart proves to be difficult when the two collide, and lives are at stake.

Taylor's Five Star Review!
****I received an ARC of this book in exchange of an honest review.****

Holy what the hell!

This book was AMAZEBALLS! After reading Madeline Sheehan's 'Undeniable' Series, I didn't think I'd ever find another MC book that would even come close. I was wrong, so very wrong.

This book is absolutely amazing, hilarious, witty, and brilliantly written. Not that I have any experience or could say one way or another, but I feel like if I were to be a part of an MC, this is what it would be like. Michele completely tackles the lifestyle that this Biker Gang lives by with such raw realism that I STILL am hungover from this book.

Harlow is a fucking badass! I'm almost twenty one years old, but GOD I want to be JUST like her when I grow up. Women living in MC's don't have it easy, but Harlow tries her damndest to make everyone see that she's not your typical 'club whore' nor will she ever be. A feat that most woman would find futile, but Harlow succeeds. She understands completely how the MC works, and she respects every aspect of it, regardless of how frustrating it is for her at times. She handles business without stepping on the toes of anyone else in the club. She lives her life by the rules of respect. You give it, you get it. Simple as that.

Growing up as the "Princess" of the MC, Harlow promised herself one thing. She'd NEVER get involved with a patched member of the MC. What she doesn't expect after doing a 2 year stint, is to come home and find that her ONE rule is about to be broken.

Cruz....HOLY SEX ON A STICK!

While Harlow was locked up, Cruz was patched into the MC. He's fiercely loyal, 100% respectful of all of his brothers, and he does what he has to, to get the job done. As an ex-Marine, Cruz knows all about how important the brotherhood is, and he embraces it. Cruz is all business with a side order of COMPLETE badass!

Reading this book seriously gave me palpitations. It had me ducking for cover, laughing my ass off, and at the end tossing my phone across my room. I was definitely NOT aware that this book was part of a series and my poor phone suffered the consequences!

I loved this book, and SERIOUSLY recommend it to anyone with eyes who is capable of reading! I know biker books, or MC books may not be everyone's thing, but this one is well worth reading! I PROMISE!!

CONGRATS Ryan on an AMAZING book!
Trina's Five Star Review!
Loved this book pretty much from the first page.

I can't tell you how badass Harlow (Princess) was in this book man oh man was she badass! After spending the last two years behind bars she came out kicking and screaming and taking names. She was strong, tough, smart mouthed, and a lot angry, but she loved her family, all of them. The MC has been her life always she grew up in the clubhouse, she knew the life she knew the rules, and she followed them for the most part....

But then came Cruz and pretty much knocked tough, smart mouthed Princess right on her ass (literally). I couldn't get enough let me tell you! And then throw in Cruz's sweet baby boy that makes your heart split wide open... Let's just say OMG I want one please and thank you...

Throughout this book one thing remained true.. I need more! Ryan Michele did a great job getting us there and still dying for more. I never got to a boring part in this book or felt rushed that it was over, the perfect balance made this book a great read for this "goldilocks!" Can't wait for the next book that's for sure!

“Sugar, you just stirred up a shit storm.” The southern drawl to his voice mixed with the smell of leather, cigarettes, and radiating testosterone would have made my pussy clench, but he ruined that by pressing a damn gun to my head.
“Low, don’t.” I ignored Casey just as I always did. Quickly, I turned my body. As my arm reached back to knock the gun out of his hand, I instantly froze. The three patch rag falling on his chest was a red light flashing in my eyes. Immediately, I stopped, putting my hands in front of me. I would never touch a brother, outside of the ring that is.
The man standing in front of me caught my breath and short-circuited my senses. His broad shoulders were covered with a skin-tight, black t-shirt and leather rag adorned with several patches that fit him like a glove. His bulging arms were covered in tattoos from the wrist up. They were flexed, one pointed the gun with precision, and the other was fisted at his side. His light caramel hair was cut short on the sides, but longer on the top, begging for a woman’s fingers to run through it. His beard was cut very short to his skin making my mouth water, wondering what it would feel like between my thighs. His sapphire eyes narrowed at me as I stared effortlessly in them, becoming entranced unable to speak.
“What the fuck is going on here?” Breaking from this man’s stare, I focused on the familiar voice I’ve missed for too long. Pops eyes swept the room quickly, and when his eyes landed on mine, the anger in them instantly faded. “What the hell’s going on?” He eyed the man with the gun pointed directly at my head and he clenched his hands into fists.
“Hey, Pops,” I said, turning my eyes back to the beautiful specimen in front of me, wanting him to know that I wasn’t afraid. If I needed a bullet in my head, so be it. I wouldn’t shy away.
“You know this bitch?” the hot asshole in front of me clipped, and my lip curled slowly. If he wasn’t wearing that rag, I’d show him how much of a bitch I could be.
“Put the damn gun down, Cruz,” Pops said jokingly. The anger dripping off this man’s face in front of me told me he didn’t see anything funny about this. He began to take a step closer. “Cruz. Stop!” Pops barked loudly as the other guys started walking up behind him. Cruz instantly stopped, but kept the gun on me. “Cruz, this is my daughter, Princess.”
“Shit. Are you fucking kidding me?” Cruz’s anger was actually pretty funny, and I had to stifle the small laugh that wanted to escape. I had too much respect to let it fly. But the shocked look on his face was pretty priceless coming from a tattooed hot-ass. I probably should have told him that sooner, but what can I say … I was born a bitch.
“No, I’m not fucking kidding you. Get the fuck away from her, and put the goddamn gun down.” Moving my head to Pops, I could see he was fuming. Whenever Pops was mad, his forehead turned bright red, and the lines throughout it became more prominent along with the vein that ticked with this heartbeat. It’s a look I always hated growing up, and it used to scare the ever-loving shit out of me.
My eyes flicked back while Cruz took one more look at me. “If you’re still pissed later, we can meet in the ring.” I smiled my damnedest. I could see the smoke threatening to come out of his ears. Confusion laced his eyes, but I wasn’t about to explain right now. I held out my hand to Cruz, “Nice to meet ya. I’m Harlow.” He stared me down as if he was hoping he could make me combust into a million pieces. Sorry Buddy, your super powers won’t work. I’ve been here too long to let that get me.
He tentatively lowered the gun, putting it behind his back, bringing his hand to mine. My hand slipped into his warm, rough, strong grip, a shock raced through my body, beginning at my connected hand and racing all the way through to my feet setting my body on fire. “Cruz.”
