“A knife that cut too deep,
a slash that still burns,
failures piled high and flammable.
I held my losses at bay with knives, with guns, my hands,
my bike, my brothers,
my iron will.
But not my heart.
No, my heart was the flame
that would light the match,
ignite the blaze.
I am the enforcer
The killer when called upon,
the ruthless hound on demand,
the one who cleans the mess left behind.
The protector
I can make you bleed,
Smash you to pieces.
But she smashed all my excuses,
and I shattered hers.
For a split second she was mine,
but I will always be hers.
Some things,
really beautiful things,
you can’t hold onto forever.”

Captivating!
I am so in love with the characters that Cat Porter has brought to life with this series. The men are fierce and feared yet gentle. The women are just as strong and fierce as the men they love. No matter what life throws at them, they come through the other side only stronger.
With Boner and Jill, their story was just as compelling as Lock and Grace’s. Maybe not as emotional but just as engrossing. Boner may be the enforcer for the MC, but Jill proved to be strong enough to pull him through his darkness and helped him fight his demons. She’s seen her share and her uplifting spirit gave him the light he needed.
Their story was beautiful!
“Was I only pieces patched together by a leather vest?”
As many of you know, I have read and enjoyed many MC Romance novels. However; Cat Porter books are on another level. I flove them. Every single one of them. I don’t know if she wrote under another name before or she just magically produced one masterpiece after another on her first attempt. It blows my mind that she is so talented. Each book I read in the Lock & Key series is my favorite. I didn’t think it could get better, but somehow it does. I cried while reading Iron & Bone. Not because it’s sad, but because it made me feel so strongly. It’s difficult to explain, it just needs to be experienced.
Reading about Boner is a passionate treat. Once you recover from your #CoverLust, keep that image in your mind, then add in his dirty-talkin’, panty-meltin’ well-hidden sweetness and your ovaries are going to explode. Who knew he had so much going on inside. His special way of dealing with his demons was a surprise to me and made me love him even more. I don’t want to spoil the experience for you so I’ll let you find out yourself. I know you will agree.
My fellow fans of this series will be thrilled when they discover who has captured the attention of this sexy badass biker with the tantalizing road name of Boner. Doesn’t it make you curious to know the story behind it? I met her in a previous book and knew she would end up being someone special. She’s was the perfect choice for him. She has demons of her own and she’s seen enough pain and destruction to understand the need for vengeance. She’s not one to judge for the necessity of handling club business. She’s experienced the life first hand. And for that reason she’s not planning on going back to it. Well, good luck with that, right? If I was her, and I saw him, I’d reconsider…sigh.
Prepare yourself. You’re gonna gasp and giggle, simmer and sigh, get pissed off and perplexed, and then you’ll be proud and pensive, curious and crazed, anxious and angry, before getting back to the hot and hotter.
Boner *swoon*
A beautifully intense, captivating, and wild ride to go on. I absolutely adored this book. This series is unbelievably entertaining and thrilling. The complexity of the characters is fierce, compelling, and oh so sweet. I loved it!
Jill!!! Jill!!! Loved her! She is a tough chick for sure and has been through so much. I love how she’s tied in with Dig and that Dig saved her although it ended up taking his life and the life of Grace and his unborn baby when he was shot from his bike by the druggy kidnappers, that kidnapped Jill, brother for revenge. It was heartbreaking. I love how everything ties together in this series. Boner being Dig’s best friend. The one he was in Juvie with and came to the One Eyed Jacks with. They’d been best friends since the beginning. This was just an all around great story. Jill was a miracle for Grace and Lock. And a miracle sent to Boner too. It’s a small world, it really is.
I can’t put this series down. I just loved Bone and Jill’s story. My heart went out for both of them. They both been through a lot of pain and suffering. But together they heal and find their happy ending. I loved all the characters. On to the next book.
Oh my. Cat did it again with Iron & Bone. My emotions were all over the place while reading this fantastic story of Boner and Jill. Just like Lock & Key, Iron & Bone is all encompassing, perfectly moving from the present to the past, and evoking all of my emotions. I couldn’t help getting attached to Boner and Jill, both together and separately. Both have lived through Hell, both of their lives intersected and weave together to forge a strong, beautiful bond. Boner may be the crazy, quite, loyal biker to his friends but he holds a gorgeous but damaged soul inside him. Jill brings out the very best in him and it is truly awesome to see. Both of them have heartbreaking pasts however by holding on to each other they are able to move forward. There is a moment of introspection Boner has that the title of the book becomes apparent and SO fitting. Iron & Bone is much more than an MC romance. Iron & Bone is a tale of the best and worst life can throw at you. It is filled with faith, hope, love and perseverance. A must read for sure.
Just when you think this series can’t get any better it does. I am still amazed at how Cat brought us Jill. Boner always deserved someone to love. In the first two books he was the perfect brother to the club but had so little for himself. I loved finding out how he and Dig became brothers and don’t even get me started about Wreck. Love this book.
