BOOK SYNOPSIS:
IT TAKES A GOOD, STRONG WOMAN
Raised in a motorcycle gang, tough, beautiful Arianne Hunter has always dreamed of a normal life. But no sooner does she escape her father’s domineering grasp than she wakes up to find herself in a rival gang’s clubhouse—at the mercy of the dangerously sexy Jagger Knight.
TO TAME A MAN WHO’S HELL ON WHEELS.
The alpha leader of the notorious Sinner’s Tribe, Jagger Knight is all muscle, all biker, and all man. But somewhere inside this hard tattooed outlaw, Arianne senses a kindred spirit—and she can’t ignore their tempestuous attraction. Can she beat him at his own game in a revved-up blaze of glory? Or will their passion spark a war that’s the end of the road for them both?
REVIEW:
3.75 Hearts
If I had written the review after the first 100 pages it would have been much different than it is right now. The reason? I was ready to put the book on my DNF list and considering I have only a handful on that list you know it would be extreme if I did. But some how I kept telling myself “just a few more chapters and I will decide” and I am glad I did.
The first 100 pages…. They are hard to deal with. I imagine this story is along the lines of Sons Of Anarchy (since I have never seen it I am not sure) but Jagger is a bad guy. Not the bad guy who ends up being good he is a full on bad guy. He and his bikers are not afraid to beat or kill someone. To them it is just another day’s activities. They sell weapons and kidnap people for money (bad people yes but still kidnapping). And I honestly had a hard time with that. I also had a hard time with the wording. The first 100 pages was like the author had taken a list of biker terminology and checked off using all of it… and some over and over. Man, if I had heard about his “cut” (not a vest apparently) one more time I might have screamed. But then it changed.
In the next 180 pages Jagger changed and I found I liked him. Yes he is still a bad guy but the way he was with Arianne and the other bikers shows his heart of gold. Arianne is a good character too. She is tough. She was brought up in a rival biker gang and knows how to handle herself and I was really glad to see that that never changed throughout the book. So many times the woman starts tough, gets the guy, becomes soft and needs to be “saved” but not this one. Wait, yes, she needs to be saved but she does her part in the escaping as much as the saving. I guess you have to read it to understand that sentence.
So by the end of the book I enjoyed it. Yes, I still don’t like the bad guys that they are. I don’t want to condone the violence that the book represents but I enjoyed the story in general. I wouldn’t have thought I would be looking forward to the next in the series but I am. And now I know I need to read through the whole thing but in the long runs the Sinners are worth reading about.
