He never meant to hurt her.


Levi “Painter” Brooks was nothing before he joined the Reapers motorcycle club. The day he patched in, they became his brothers and his life. All they asked in return was a strong arm and unconditional loyalty—a loyalty that’s tested when he’s caught and sentenced to prison for a crime committed on their behalf.



Melanie Tucker may have had a rough start, but along the way she’s learned to fight for her future. She’s escaped from hell and started a new life, yet every night she dreams of a biker whose touch she can’t forget. It all started out so innocently—just a series of letters to a lonely man in prison. Friendly. Harmless. Safe.

Now Painter Brooks is coming home… and Melanie’s about to learn that there’s no room for innocence in the Reapers MC.






Uh, oh. Don't panic people. 3 stars doesn't mean that I didn't liked the book ! I do like it. But I'm having a little bit of an issue with the characters.
I knew that Painter is a little twisted , the type of I-don't-know-what-I-really-want guy. But when you have two main characters who are acting and thinking like teens , well tell me you don't expect for the relationship to actually work. 
Both of them need to suck it up and grow up , put their pride aside and their issues together and get married.On second thoughts , I'm afraid that I fail to "feel" the love and compatibility between them. These two make the perfect couple, in a weird kind of way. 

As much as I love Joanna's Reaper's series (and believe me, I adore her MC stories ! ) I'm afraid that Painter's story didn't quite reached up my expectation. Mel is a little bit naive and Painter seems like everything that he is doing is doing it for the sake of Izzy , out of guilt that he missed the most important moments from his daughter's life. Their relationship is toxic with all that I-don't-know-what-I-want , I love you- I hate you , back and forth , back and forth., on and on and on.  I lived the intense stories between all the other Reaper's characters , the feeling was so strong. But with Painter and Mel's story...I really don't see them going too far with thier relationship.

Expected publication : Nov. 3 . 2015


The lives of Sir Bartlett Crosby and Hannah Chandler have been marked by fierce competition between their elite families...the perfect breeding ground for a mutual attraction neither can deny.

Bart hopes to conquer "the turf" through victory in a much-touted match. Should his heavily-favored colt win, the Crosby reputation and fortunes would be revived. Bart's plan seems poised for success until the lovely Hannah Chandler, daughter of a noted rival trainer, turns up claiming ownership of the colt. When Hannah insists on claiming her purchase, the prize colt disappears from Bart's stable. Theft or treachery? As Hannah and Bart rush to solve the mystery before race time, they uncover a scandalous truth about their families' pasts-a truth that has the potential to either destroy both their futures, or to guide them to a love they never imagined.
 


From time to time I enjoy reading historical romance and this was a sweet little story about rivality between two nobel families and about horse racing. Bart's Mother sells a winning colt to Hannah's family but the colt disappeared mysteriously. The two of them put their rivality aside and they try together to find the lost colt. Some twists added to the story and a little bit of romance between the two main characters.
