** spoiler alert ** Lock has always been perceived as a player and bad boy. Tasha has always longed to meet her only family. Both are drawn together, but he has secrets. Can Tasha accept Lock’s past? Will Lock realize that he is worth it?
Loved the fine line between love and hate! I loved how while on the outside Lock was this tough, bad boy, but really he was a good guy, his past just didn’t let him recognize it. I didn’t blame Tasha for being scared of her life changing, but loved how once she opened herself to it, she took everything by storm. Great read!
Alpha wolf finds his mate
Tasha is knocked out with her bestie Jackie, outside of Club Crimson when they go to investigate why Max is acting strangely! Tasha wakes up to find Lock with her. She’s instantly attracted to him and his beautiful good looks…if only he had a better personality…hehe Anyway, he asks her what she saw and when she explains he realises he can’t erase her memory….because of who she is
It was great to learn more about Lock and his past and I found myself immediately drawn into their world and the story A not to be missed story and I can’t wait for more in this series. Thank you to Terry for my advanced copy for which I leave my honest review.
Loving this series… These characters are so amazing that I can’t wait for the next story… Tasha and Lock were passionate, emotional, and had me sucked in to their story from the beginning…
*WARNING* contains explicit adult sexual situations
Lachlan, better known as Lock is such an interesting character. This book explains more of how and why he is so damaged. He can be charming and in the very next breath, be a douche-nozzle. It was interesting watching Lock slowly change throughout the story. I am super glad the sassy Tasha was paired with Lock. I like this new series quite a bit, but that Benny! I would just like to reach through the pages and shake some sense into Benny. I am hoping Felix gets a story and I’d really like to get a conclusion on the dreaded Tribunal. RECOMMENDED.
Love this series. When I first started reading books by Ms. Bolryder I read the Alpha Contender series where Lock was a part of a 10 alpha challenge to win a rare female werewolf. Lots of shenanigans going on. We get to see a few of the “contender” characters. It won’t matter if you haven’t read the series but those who have will love checking up on them.
Now Lock lives a life of protecting other shifters and humans. When he meets Tasha in his co-owned club, she’s in trouble and the one woman he’s been attracted to for years. Instead of using his alpha power and disappearing, he wants to keep her near and protected.
Powers That Be trouble, old acquaintances who have resentments and are not fully informed about Lock and his current life and finding a woman who can understand and accept him as he is. Is it possible? Will they be able to live long enough to explore a future?
The characters are strong, wonderful, and hot as heck. Ones you won’t forget
This is the second book in this series which definitely
gets better with each book.
To get the full affect of this book you should read the book before this one
even tho it can be read as a standalone.
This book is a real page turner right from the first page until the last page.
Plot and characters seem to come to live as you get into the book
I would definitely recommend this book.
