☆A Top 100 Amazon Bestseller☆ They say one action doesn’t define you. I killed a man. Stabbed him in the neck and licked the blood off my lips after I did it. Still, one action doesn’t define you. I could have called anyone. My father, the Prez of The Fallen MC, our family lawyer, my best friend, Lila, or my brother, King.I didn’t. Instead, I called Lionel Danner, the police officer renowned for … the police officer renowned for taking down the Nightstalkers MC. The man who had been my father’s arch nemesis for decades. The man who hated everything I stood for. A man who had disappeared from my life without explanation three years ago.
I called him.
And maybe one action doesn’t define you, but killing a bad man and calling in the good changed my life and it sure as hell changed his.
The third book in the Fallen Men series. A standalone featuring Harleigh Rose and Officer Lionel Danner.

5 Stars!!!!
A flippin movie!!!
I’ve been a fan of Giana since i read The Evolution of Sin series. I was hoooooked!! The woman can freakin write! This book was phenomenal. Perfectly written. I couldn’t even decide if i should devour every word or savor it. I never wanted it to end. Every bit of this book was addictive. So drawn to this story from the very beginning. At some point in this story i was scared because i never knew what i could walk into. That’s the best kind of stories. The ones that made you expect differently, because when it hits oh it hit me really hard. I fell down and somehow find my way back. It was like a movie in my head. I cried so many times.
Rosie was perfect. A badass! A fucking woman, a fucking heroine. She was the epitome of sexy and feminine. I loved her in Zeus book and i was fcking crazy about her in this story. A baddie. Danner though!!!! The guy lit a fire in me that i didn’t know i had. Freaking hot. He was the good gone bad. He loved Rosie so hard, i swooned the whole damn time. Don’t even get me started on his dirty dom personality!!!! He was Rosie’s match!
This book made me realize how much I loved reading. The kind that I’d find myself go back to read from time to time. I’ll forever love Giana’s words. That’s a promise. All the stars for this book!!! Loved loved loved it hard!!!
Harleigh Rose and Danner are a couple that should never work, the MC Princess and the cop, but in a way that only the best writers can, Giana Darling helps the two retain their autonomy while being one of the best book couples I’ve read so far this year.
Harleigh Rose is a complete bada$$ who somehow allowed herself to fall in with an abusive biker and has to do something unconventional to find her way free.
Danner is a cop, but instead of following in his father’s footsteps to try and bring down the Fallen MC, he’s moved on to a cleaner agenda.
Watching H.R. and Danner try to dance between the lines in their relationship, while trying to bring down a truly evil group is staggering. Danner just wants Harleigh to stay safe, but she’s too busy trying to save everyone.
Even after Harleigh takes down the evil, don’t blink or you’ll miss the drop in the roller coaster that’s coming.
I really liked the timeline Giana uses and the development in the characters to explain how Danner and his rebel Rose started together in the first place. The D/s components in this book are clearly thought out, and written to indicate consent has been given by both parties.
The ending was a complete surprise, and I can’t wait to see what happens next with The Fallen MC!
I’ve been a Giana fan since her first book and with every book since she’s absolutely blown me away. Her writing has elevated with every story and she is still able to take me on an unforgettable journey.
I liked H.R from book one (LIC) but the minute she proceeded to not so kindly show LouLou who Zeus’ baby girl was (with her beautiful hands) I automatically loved her. You have to go back to Welcome to the Dark Side to know what I am referencing. Epic scene. (No spoilers, sorry) she showed how protective and badass she was. When Danner got introduced in Lessons in Corruption my interest was piqued and I just knew this dude was special and very mysterious.
I love me an age gap story and these two together *whew* *fans self* they had me putting my kindle down to catch my breath. H.R and Danner had that Bonnie and Clyde kinda relationship. The possessive, unapologetic, all I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriend kinda love. (See how I quoted JayZ there) These two went through a lot to get to their happy. But as always it was worth it. There were surprise guests, twist and turns and some moments that truly broke my heart, everything you’d need in a good book. I’d definitely recommend giving this book a read if not for the story do it to meet Officer Danner.
Another winner by Giana Darling!!!! I love this series and these imprefectly perfect bikers and the people they love. Harleigh Rose hasn’t had an easy life in many ways, but she knows she is loved while Danner’s life seemed easier, maybe that wasn’t exactly the case. I loved how we got not only current things happening, but a glimpse into the past to see how exactly HR and Lion got to where they are today. My favorite HOT alpha daddy Zeus and all the other characters we’ve fallen in love with in the previous 2 books, makes appearances in this one, which I love because biker outlaws or not, love and family is always number 1 with them. As HR puts it “There is no reason on this goddamn planet to abandon your family” or is there a reason? Guess you will have to read to find out as I don’t want to spoil or give anything away. This is another books of ups and downs, a fabulously painful roller coaster of emotions. I can’t wait to see what happens in book 4 with this family of outlaw bikers that I am so in love with. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
This book was one of my most anticipated books of 2018.
I knew Danner and Harleigh Rose’s story was going to be intense. But this book was off the charts. Talk about edge of your seat angsty read. LOL!! Filled with a whole lot of sexy. This book was also filled with so many emotions. I found myself cussing out Darling and shedding a few tears. And wanting to reach through my tablet and to wrap my arms around Harleigh Rose a few times. And let her know everything will be ok. And just give her motherly love.
Darling definitely know how to write a great MC read. I would have given a 5 star. But I wish Danner and Harleigh Rose’s connection felt a little more emotional then just physical. I know they aren’t the hearts and roses kind of couple. I just needed a little more emotion from them. I can’t wait to see what comes next.
I have been waiting for Danner and Harleigh Rose’s book since reading Welcome to the Dark Side! This book was amazing!! Going it to this book I wondered how a bad@$$ MC princess and a cop could make it work, but Giana Darling did it perfectly. These two are so hot together. This book had so many twists and turns I had no clue how everything was going to work out! The ending killed me!!!! I need the next book!
The story of Rebel Rose and Dirty Danner delivers a story of taboo goodness and a gritty storyline. The chemistry between the two has been felt since Lessons in Corruption and continued in Welcome to the Dark Side, and Good Gone Bad did and excellent job of showing us their story from beginning to end.
Good Gone Bad is so Good.
Holy Wow Ms. Giana Darling has completely blown me away with these two Harley Rose and “Lion” Danner. It is hot and sexy and completely steamy. There was a moment I wanted too through my kindle and cry why are you doing this to me. And Nooooo. Be completely upset because I did not want was happening to happen to my fallen characters and all of the characters of this world that I have been falling for from the moment I read lessons of corruption and welcome to the dark side. There were moments that I wanted Harley Rose to confide to her amazing family and to her Danner. But at the
Same time I understood that they all needed to protect each other. Danner is extremely hot and sexy even though is a cop he is a sexy and kinky. And makes you want to drool as you read and makes you want to be Harley Rose to be touch by this bad boy cop. Because Danner is one good man that goes bad in such a good way.
Yesssss!!!!! OMFG yesssss!!! . This story was totally worth the wait! The hotness. The love. The fear. The anger. The shock of all shocks!!! This book had me completely riveted from beginning to end! The most unlikely pair and they end up working so freaking well together! And oh the heartbreak!!! I won’t even get into how many times I felt my heart shred to a million pieces! Giana has this way of literally making you FEEL the heartbreak! This series is EVERYTHING!!! I never thought I would like an MC series, but Giana has shown me how awesome and wonderful they can be! I can’t wait for the next installment!!!
5 LION AND ROSIE STARS!! OMG, This book hit all my emotion buttons and I am exhausted after reading this phenomenal story. Giana Darling takes us on a fantastic ride with lots of twists & turn all the way through. I could not turn the pages fast enough while reading this book. Danner and Harleigh Rose are both complicated characters, that you will fall in love with. These two have so much chemistry and they need each in so many ways. This is a definite 1-Click book, so what are you waiting for.
This might be the hardest review I’ve had to write in a while because I really want to do it justice but I just don’t even have the words.
Good Gone Bad is as beautiful as a rose with thorn like scenes that will pierce your heart. It’s sweet, hot but most of all heart-rending.
I loved everything about it and it ruined me in all the best ways! I was so engrossed reading the first chapter that I almost missed work (where I continued to read because I couldn’t put it down). Days later after I’ve finished the book and I still haven’t recovered!
I loved their sweet moments together, the music, the loyalty, the side characters and their lives. The small details and hidden clues. We also get the most out of everyone than we ever did but especially with Lion and Rosie, separated and together! There are so many surprises and new characters that you will adore while others you will hate with a passion.
One of the things I liked about Lion is that he is obviously different from Giana’s other men but with tiniest hints of Sin, King and Z! The best combination but he is clearly his own character. He also loves differently and in a way you that will be explained later into the story.
My heart kept breaking for HR but I also admired her so much more. You think you know Harleigh Rose but you’ll be surprised by her heart and how fiercely she loves, then again she’s a Garro! And, little Rosie is just the cutest!!
Each of the Fallen men has his own version of love letters, and Lion is no different. Rosie and Lion’s music connection and playlists became as special to me as Z & Lou’s letters and King’s poems, if not more. I implore you to listen to the playlist while reading, it’s perfect for them and a huge part of their story.
Now I have to mention the epilogue because it was EVERYTHING!!! The best for so many reasons you’re not even ready for! You will definitely need it after the last 30% of the book that will tear you apart. So hang in there.
Finally (if you made it this far), I must say this book is definitely my favourite of the Fallen Men Series to date, and in my opinion the best Giana Darling has written yet. I can’t wait for you guys to meet Dirty Danner and his rebel thorny Rose and hopefully fall in love with them as much as I have.
Good Gone Bad is a strong mix of contrasts. It’s a romance and a thriller, good and evil, hard and soft, rough and tender.
Lionel Danner had an inherent need to protect Harleigh Rose Garro from their first meeting. Their connection from an early age was unconventional and intense, but never crossed that line. He is undoubtedly good and beyond sexy.
Harleigh Rose Garro may be a biker princess with a penchant for trouble, but she is loyal and loves fiercely. She’s got sass and then some.
Their game of cat and mouse straddles the edge of good and bad. Their sex scenes are hot and yet extremely intimate. Their commitment to each other, the cause and those most important to them is never under question. How they protect them all and themselves is what they need to figure out. Their journey isn’t an easy one.
Danner and H.R. along with the Fallen MC family, by blood and otherwise, are multilayered, somewhat complicated, gritty, unwavering, loving. It’s a series I enjoy, can get lost in for a little while and come out on the other side looking forward to more. Hopefully Ms. Darling won’t make us wait too long for The Fallen Men #4.
Sometimes before you read a book you know going in it is going to be something special. And that was exactly the case with this book. There is just so much I could say about Lionel “Lion” Danner and Harleigh Rose Garro’s story and believe me I want to but I also don’t want to spoil the book for those that haven’t read it yet. So I’m going to keep it simple and use broad strokes. This is the third book in The Fallen Men series. In my opinion it could be read as a standalone but do yourself a favor and read Lessons in Corruption and Welcome to the Darkside first. They are both amazing reads and the main characters reappear throughout this series and play major parts. Now as far as this book goes, it is an age gap, MC romance. The connection and emotions between these two is so very intense. Their scenes are hot, smoky and just sizzle. The storyline offers drama, suspense, danger, emotional turmoil, nail-biting tension, tenderness, sweetness and so many swoon worthy moments. I loved Lion and Rosie. They fit so well together and had such an impact on each other’s lives, hearts and souls. H.R. was the pebble to Danner’s lake. She crashed into his life, causing ever widening ripples that effected them both and everything was changed forever after. I loved it and I truly hope we see more from the men of the Fallen.
