I love a good ” We can’t do this” read, There’s something about the sexy meet ups and sneaking around that is just HOT!
I’m a huge fan of PD’s (fangirled a lot when I met her at rare14) She delivered yet again another fantastic read with misconduct, now you’re wondering why only 4.5* well I felt there was something missing, I can’t put my finger on it, but I still loved the story.
Easton and Tyler are pretty epic, there’s an age gap (my favourite) and to make things even better Easton is Tyler’s estranged sons teacher! As you can imagine its filled with Drama (Note the capital D!)
They have a very love to hate you relationship to begin with, Easton is fighting a lot of demons and Tyler is going to be running for senate. I love the will they won’t they pull that she manages so well. The relationship between Tyler and his son will have you sighing, laughing and if you have kids definitely relating. It was a breath of fresh air to read this, it was a great read but also different to everything else that’s on the market just now.
There is a few twists and turns, PD has my mind going one way but she is five steps ahead in the other direction, I love when I think I know what is going to happen and it isn’t till the last minute you realise you had it all wrong.
One shy lost soul. One silent lonely heart. One love to save them both.

*I kindly received an ARC in exchange for an honest review*
I have read every one of Tillie’s books and thought that I had already sampled her best work this year, when I read Souls Unfractured from her Hangmen Series.
Levi Carillo is the youngest, sweetest and most innocent of the brothers and I expected his story to have a little of the angst that we have come to expect before Tillie tied up the Sweet Home Series in a nice heart warming bow, what I got instead was a whole lot more of well, everything!
I really should have known that Tillie would throw everything she had at this book. These boy’s are her original babies after all and it show’s.
I knew going in that Levi was suffering, after all he has been through, losing his mum and the guilt he carried , the things he was forced to do for the Heighters and Axel going to jail affected him deeply but I had no idea just how closed off this beautiful man had become. His almost crippling shyness has made sharing his life and his ‘sweet soul’ with someone almost impossible, instead of partying with his friends and acting his age, Levi has thrown himself into his studies and his football believing that he will never have what his brothers have because he is different.
When Levi rescues a very sick girl from danger, although she has previously done him wrong, he doesn’t hesitate to step in and make sure that she is safe. In doing so, an irrevocable bond is formed that is both beautiful and utterly heart breaking to be a part of. In the process of trying to put this silent fragile girl back together, Levi finally has to confront his own past and the demons that he has carried with him. Can he finally let go of the past and embrace the future he deserves? Can the girl he has given his heart to be everything that he needs her to be in order to survive in his world?
Tillie always manages to delivery a message with her story telling. Writing gives an Author a voice and Tillie uses her voice to the very best of her ability, never one to shy away from the taboo subjects that society wishes to sweep under the carpet, this time we find Tillie bringing topics such as mental health, suicide and bullying to the forefront with such utter compassion and soul destroying clarity that it will break your heart and give you something to think about long after you have turned the final page.
I really am in awe of this woman’s writing and her ability to make you care about her characters. I ugly cried at this book like never before but it was worth it, even if I have puffy eyes for days. The poetry in this book is also beautiful and I can only presume that Tillie has written them herself. Is there no end to this women’s talents?? All of the brothers and their gals are there to help along the way providing much needed support and allowing for some of the most poignant scenes in the book, so if you are missing, Rome, Austin or Axel, you will get your fix.
If you haven’t read any of this Author’s work I suggest you do so now and the Sweet Home Series is the perfect place to start.
Well Done Tillie.
It is necessary to first read King and Tyrant to fully enjoy Lawless.
*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review*
I literally could not wait to get my hands on this book and not only because of the beautiful man on the cover. After devouring King & Tyrant,I was desperate for DecemBEAR to come and this book was certainly worth the wait. We finally get inside the head of the bad boy biker who’s loyalties are split between the Club and the family he chose for himself. The MC was all he had ever known but his eyes are now truly open due to his father’s unwillingness to accept his friendships with our beloved King and Preppy.
The story begins in the past, where we find a young Thia who meets Bear in unconventional circumstances. In an effort to stop her running her mouth he makes her an empty promise she believes he will keep. Years later, Thia seeks Bear out hoping he will make good on that promise but instead she finds herself in a whole heap of trouble.
When she eventually comes face to face with the beautiful biker, he is nothing of the vision she remembers, instead she finds an angry, bitter and hopeless man who is drowning himself in women, booze and drugs in an effort to numb the pain of his past.
Bear wants not one thing to do with the broken girl who has found her way into his care but his love of his friends, his humanity and his thirst for revenge give him the strength to pull his way up from the gutter.
“This wasn’t a joke anymore. This was fucking war.”
But Thia is stronger than she seems and she doesn’t just want into his life, she wants into his heart and it’s not long before she is falling for the man who wants to protect her but keep her at arms length.
“When I’m with you it’s like you put me on this fucking unreachable pedestal. I don’t deserve that kind of admiration and sometimes…it scares the fucking shit out of me.”
“The truth is that I’m not the good guy. I’m the fucking bad guy, and club or not, that hasn’t changed.”
I was also pleased to find a healthy doze of King and Ray in this book and my heart hurt a little even as I laughed when Preppy’s voice found it’s way onto the pages but I am so thankful to the author for finding a way to keep this character alive in some way.
I truly love a book which can take you through such a wide array of emotions and I can’t believe we have to wait..again, to find out if this couple get their HEA.
This really is a heart stopping, tear jerking, pantie dropping, ‘what the actual fuck?’ kind of ride…..Oh you are tease Ms Frazier but I love you.
Meet Alexa; Flighty, flirty and lots of fun. A beautician by day, by night she works a pole. Strong in mind and body, no one messes with this sharp tongued girl, and no one can look away when she’s strutting her stuff. Johnny Murphy is a handsome Dubliner with a knicker-dropping accent, and bundles of charm. He’s also the brother of Tash’s boyfriend, James. Like all good stories, it begins in the pub, but can drunken flirting lead to something else? Will they be a match made in heaven? Or will the past tear them apart?
I loved Tash, Alexa slid into the number one spot. I loved this short read. Alexa is a beautician who loves to pole dance for exercise (And damn she is good!)
Alexa is the ultimate friend, She really proves she would do anything for her girl. We get more of the regulars too and a nice addiction of Johnny ( Who is James’ brother)
Johnny and Alexa’s relationship is belter, They have ups and downs and lots of hot hot HOT sex. Johnny is near perfection.
This review isn’t going to be overly long as there are a fair few surprises that I don’t want to ruin.
If you like your men tough, sweet and Irish this is a book for you.
What I love most about kelsey’s writing is how effortless it reads, A sign of a truly talented author. There wasn’t any scenes I felt had just been thrown in or a sex scnece just to bulk to book up. Another 5* Must read.
A word of warning though- Shleby has a sneek peek at the end and it broke me a little, I am so excited to meet Shelby but sooooo nervous for my heart!
Meet Tash; voluptuous, smart and sinfully sexy. She’s all about having a good time and moving on from men who don’t come up to scratch. A born organiser, Tash plans a naughty girl’s weekend in Marbella for her friends.
Sun, sea and sex are the only things on the girls’ agenda, but Tash didn’t plan on hooking up with a hotty like James.
James is a sexy firefighter; a man who can rescue kittens, put out fires, and make lady’s knickers wet without even using his hose. When Tash and James get together temperatures soar, as James introduces her to a side of herself she’d never met before.
I’ve followed Kelsey’s Blog for years, So when I heard she was writing a book I got really excited.
Tash is a great short- insta love read. It has the perfect balance to keep you hooked, And lots of hotness. I devoured it in one sitting.
The Girls are going on a weekend away to Marbella, The dynamics between Tash, Alexa and Shelby are perfect, I’d love a friendship like theirs. I laughed and gasped my way through.
James is a dominant Alpha male, Who is to die for! Did I mention he was a firefighter. He shows Tash a side of herself she never eve knew existed ( I really want to use a hose pun , but I’ll refrain)
I won’t go in to mch more detail as I don’t want to spoilt it for anyone but this a 5* must read.
Fantastic debut from Kelsey Burns I look forward to the rest in the series.
As the club Enforcer, Stitch is the man chosen to protect the club. There are no limits to his brutality, no lines drawn in the sand. The club is his life, and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep his brothers safe.
He’s a man who keeps to himself, guarding the walls that he secured so long ago. Then, one moment, one chance meeting, changes everything.
Wren
Life for Wren and her son, Wyatt, isn’t exactly easy. Yet, Wren faces each day with determination and courage. Wyatt is her joy and motivation; for him, she will find a way to make their lives better, even when obstacles are continually thrown in her path. The last thing she needs is another complication, but what is life without hurdles to overcome?
Stitch appears when they need him the most, protecting them when no one else can. Wren can’t understand it. She should feel threatened by his bulging muscles and menacing tattoos, but she’s somehow able to see past the mysterious biker to the man inside. She is drawn to him for reasons she can’t even begin to comprehend. All she knows is that her body craves his touch.
Can Stitch let his guard down and allow these two strangers into his heart? Can Wren see beyond the scars of her past long enough to let him in, or will her fear drive him away?

Writing the Devil Chaser’s MC Romance series has been a long time dream of mine, and it is still hard to believe that I actually did it. I loved writing the Devil Chasers series, and I am looking forward to working on the Satan’s Fury MC series. Thank you so much for checking out my page. You can also find me on facebook and twitter.
