CHASTITY
For years I’ve crushed on him.

Off Limits is book five in the Kings of Mayhem MC and each book can be read as a standalone or together if you wish. This is Chastity’s story (the Princess of the MC) and Ruger. Everyone knows that she is Off Limits including Ruger! He’s watched her grow up right before his eyes, but something has changed and he sees the older her. He knows he shouldn’t pursue any feelings at all. One this is against the MC rules, two the age gap and three the feelings are not real or are they? Chastity has crushed on him since she was a little girl, but who knew that her crush was still there into her adulthood. Lines are blurring and they are working out what this means and just when you think they are going to tell her brother, Bull reality comes crashing their world. You will be on the edge of your seat with how this plays out and boy was that an intense moment there and so glad it happened the way it did (all I can say to avoid a spoiler). One thing that holds your heart is something that happens with Wendy, Ruger’s deceased sister and Bull’s wife. It makes your heart do many feelings, but it can only allow us to hold out hope that Bull will finally get a story and be able to bring closure to some much needed feelings and things. Whether you read just one book in this series or all, you will fall in love with this MC band of brothers and the secondary characters! Off Limits has never looked so appealing almost like that apple from Snow White! HaHa.
Another Kings of Mayhem Winner!!!
Is sixteen years too much? Even though Ruger had known Chastity since she was born and Ruger had always given time to that cute little girl now she was twenty two and they were crossing paths yet again. She had grown into a beautiful woman and all the Kings of Mayhem MC had been warned off her by her Uncle Bull who was prez of the club. She never had much of a dating life when she lived in Destiny because everyone was afraid of the club and her brothers.
Now due to unforeseen circumstances Chastity needed a place to stay for a few weeks until her apartment was repaired and Ruger had the room at his house. What could go wrong with this set up?! Well Chasity and Ruger had this intense chemistry to fight and even though Ruger knew it was wrong on so many levels he was having a hard time keeping to his best friend, Bull’s, rules of hands off his niece.
The chemistry was great, the storyline even better. There was a lot of heartache and mouth dropping moments when the author was leading you one way only to pull the rug out from under you!! I loved this book from the start and found another sexy alpha from the Kings of Mayhem series to love.
4 1/2 STARS!
Intense, drama-filled and oh so forbidden! With OFF LIMITS, the fifth book in her ever-delightful Kings of Mayhem MC series, Penny Dee brings us the story of the MC Princess and her love. The characters are well developed, the passion is smokin’ hot and the drama is spot on. The only thing I wanted a little more of was to see more of her brothers who had been front and center in the series previously brought into this story a little more.
Chastity has been surrounded by over-protective men her entire life … her father, her three older brothers, her MC President uncle, the rest of the club … and while she adores them all, she’s ready to live her life for herself for a change. When the opportunity is in her sights to have the one man she’s crushed on for forever and a day, who is she to resist?
Ruger is her uncle’s best friend … a brother, a confidante, trusted. He knows he shouldn’t betray him by touching the one person who was always off limits … but when she looks at him like that, all bets are off.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys an emotionally intense MC story. I’ve enjoyed the entire series and recommend you read them in order to get a full appreciation of the back story and previous match ups and drama.
Penny Dee’s MC series, Kings of Mayhem is one of the better MC series I have found and love to read. In Off Limits, Penny not only broaches the forbidden love between Chastity and Ruger, the Club’s princess and their Sergeant at Arms, the age difference did not help matters. I liked the was they both dealt with the issue. And the way Ruger treated her was swoonable.
Kings of Mayhem is not only romance, we get suspense and always some action with the men of Mayhem.
Wow! I really loved Ruger and Chastity’s story. There was so much going on but that tied together with the rest of the previous stories and left open for the future ones to come. Not only do we get the MC aspect but we also have a forbidden romance and the age difference. It’s like most of my favorite tropes in one. I would have liked less drama with Ruger and his past but I could see how it also helped move Ruger and Chastity’s relationship. This was explosive!
This is one of the best age gap storues i have read. Its amazing ehat a connection these 2 have. Penny Dee real did a fabulous job with this story.
A beautiful and intriguing story that I absolutely loved!
I found Chastity to be a truly endearing and unique character. She was self confident and reliant with goals to be a paramedic.
Ruger was strong and determined and older than Chastity but the draw and chemistry between them undeniable. As much as they fought their attraction it was inevitable.
There was dual POVs that made it so much easier to understand their feelings and internal battles.
Loved it and highly recommend!
So what do you do when you unexpectedly have to stay at your crush’s place? He’s not only your uncle’s best friend he’s also gorgeous, rugged, 16 years older than you and there’s no denying the chemistry between the two of you. God, I love these types of books. Penny did an amazing job with this.
I always love the depth of the stories being told by Penny Dee! Debra @janise’s Jivin’ Book Blog
When reading Chastity and Rugers story I was intrigued by how people within the MC always react to relationships. This story is not as cut and dried as it may appear in the blurb. There are a few surprises inside its pages. It makes for a deeper storyline and just wraps you up even more inside the Kings of Mayhem world.
I love that Chastity is a strong, independent female who can take care of herself but loves the feeling of being cared for as well. She grew up in the MC so its not like there are to many surprises.
Ruger is a sweetheart who does indeed fight the feelings for a while but sometimes temptation is just too much! He being a member of an MC has strong protective instincts and when a few things arise he has to deal with his feelings and the future.
The other members of the Kings of Mayhem are like a big family in more than just blood and they too will have some opinions.
Love the Kings of Mayhem and Penny Dee’s writing of their stories!
Chastity has had a thing for Ruger since she was little and now she is all grown up those feelings have only intensified. At 16 years her senior though, Ruger feels he is way too old for her, but not only that as his best friend and president’s niece she is “off limits”. When the two are thrown together, will they resist or will the pull be strong enough to make them break the rules? What will be the consequences if they do?
I really enjoyed this. Drama, romance and a little bit of action and I thought this was great. I was sucked in from the very start and didn’t put it down until I’d finished. It felt like a good ending to a series but if I’m mistaken and there’s more then I can’t wait to read it. I give Off Limits 5 stars.
Off Limits by Penny Dee is book 5 in the Kings of Mayhem Series. This is the story of Ruger and Chastity. I have read the previous books but do feel you can make this a standalone book if you wish to do so. Ruger is the older biker who you just fall in love with. Chastity is 22 years old and has been protected in the MC (Kings of Mayhem family). Ruger is about 16 years older than Chastity and is a family friends along with being in the MC. When circumstance open up that Chastity needs to
be around Ruger more his eyes start to open and he can’t seem to resist Chastity. But of course nothing is easy for these forbidden soles.
Loved their story and is one of my top books in this series.
I received copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
Ruger: I was sixteen when she was born. The niece of my best friend. An angel wit bright blue eyes and hair the color of night. Through the years I’ve seen her grow from an adorable dimpled cupid into a strong, independent beauty. Into a goddess. A temptress. Fate has brought us together. But she is off limits. I’ve got no business wanting her. No business at all.
Chastity: For years I’ve crushed on him. An older man who makes me tremble. A biker King whose arms I want to get lost in. Whose body I can only dream about touching. Whose lips I’m dying to taste. I shouldn’t want him. But I do. I shouldn’t lust after him. But tell that to my poor hopeless heart. I should stay away. But I won’t.
Off Limits is the fifth book in Penny Dee’s Kings of Mayhem MC Series but can be read as a complete stand alone. This book has that forbidden romance and an age gap feel to it so there is that that I loved about it right off the bat. Chastity and Ruger though have an amazing story to tell and in the process they are going to steal your heart and you’re not going to get it back. Chastity is the princess of the Kings of Mayhem club and she was born to the sister of Ruger’s best friend. That right there was enough to make her off limits to him and her to him. There is a sixteen year age gap between the two too. However that doesn’t stop the longing and the desire and the chemistry that these two have that is going to melt your kindle and your heart at the same time. These two might try to not think about each other but then they just end up being all the other thinks about. You’re going to be rooting for them the entire book and you’re going to love every second that you spend with them. I didn’t want this book to end.
5 Stars
There is nothing I love more than when I start reading a book and completely lose myself in the story and that’s exactly what I did with this latest installment of the Kings of Mayhem. Ruger is the Sargeant at Arms for the MC and finds himself with a new roommate after the pipes burst in Chastity Calley’s apartment. He’s known her since she was born and has always thought of her as a niece…until he doesn’t. He knows the rule that this MC princess is off limits and he desperately tries to resist the pull between them, but he can’t deny his heart any longer. Ruger and Chastity are just perfect together, and I loved every minute of their story.
Penny Dee has given us another great book that will both keep you on the edge of your seat and pull at your heartstrings. I mean that ending… so freaking sweet! It’s always great to catch up with the Calley clan, plus we get a glimpse at what story may be coming up next.

This is the 5th book in this amazing series and is Ruger and Chastity’s story. Ruger is the loner in the Kings, and Chastity is the club’s princess, and being the niece of Rugers best friend is off limits, however, can they deny the attraction between them? This is another well written amazing story, which is action packed, and is raw, gritty, passionate, and with twists and love. I was totally enthralled throughout this riveting story, and I highly recommend for all MC lovers. Hat’s off to this gifted author as each and every novel just keeps getting better and better!
OMG, this book was hot. It was like a forbidden romance wrapped up in a devil may care attitude with bikers and a ballsy young woman all mixed together. From start to finish Off Limits has you hooked. You’re totally invested in the two characters: Ruger and Chastity getting together. You don’t even care about the age-gap, because really who cares when you have a hottie like Ruger chasing you!
At 22, Chastity is the Princess of the Kings of Mayhem so her life has been about being protected, looked after and generally wrapped up in cotton wool, not just by the MC but also her three older brothers who are also part of the MC. But she wants more from life and more from a boyfriend who have all been a bit lack lustre and left her with her V-card intact. Chastity has always had a crush on Ruger who is 16 years older than her and he has treated her like nothing more than a friend. But that all changes when circumstances change for Chastity and she moves in with Ruger. But not everything goes to plan!
Ruger is just one of those guys that you read about and instantly fall in love with. Easy on the eyes, smart, determined to do the right thing and deep down a good guy. He’s always liked Chastity but that changes when she comes to live with him and although at first, he is stuck about doing anything because he is older, it’s not long before they are in a really heated relationship. But Ruger’s past comes calling in the way of an ex-girlfriend and a life choice and Chastity and Ruger then have to face challenges in their relationship which just might break them.
There was a lot of other smaller stories going on in this novel but they all seemed to tie in really well. Can I just add that Ruger’s ex needed a good slap….I mean, who does that! It isn’t easy living in a biker family and it shows in how Chastity reacts to things as well as Ruger and Bull’s relationship, but there is just something about it that is intriguing.
If you haven’t read any of this series, you need to get onto it now!
ARC received for a fair and honest review.

OFF LIMITS is the fifth instalment in Penny Dee’s contemporary, adult KINGS OF MAYHEM erotic, MC, romance series focusing on the members of the Kings of Mayhem MC. This is thirty-nine year old, Kings of Mayhem Sargent at Arms Ruger La Montagne, and twenty-three year old, college student Chastity Calley’s story line. OFF LIMITS can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalment is revealed where necessary.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Ruger and Chastity) OFF LIMITS follows the forbidden relationship between thirty-nine year old, Kings of Mayhem Sargent at Arms Ruger La Montagne, and twenty-three year old, college student Chastity Calley. Chastity Calley grew up in the world of the MC but the Kings of Mayhem president, Michael ‘Bull’ Western was overprotective to a fault since the death of her father years before. With her return from California, and enrolment in the local college, Chastity found herself homeless when a water pipe broke destroying everything she owned. With no place to live Ruger La Montagne offered Chastity a room, placing Chastity’s life-long crush within feet of her heart. What ensues is the building but forbidden relationship between Chastity and Ruger, and the potential fall-out when their relationship is exposed, and a new player in town takes out his revenge on the Kings of Mayhem MC.
Kings of Mayhem President Bull Western raised Chastity as one of his own but Bull had made it perfectly clear that Chastity was off limits to everyone including the brothers of his own MC. Ruger La Montagne knew starting a relationship with Chastity was tantamount to suicide but their attraction to one another was palpable and hot. When Ruger’s past comes looking for a second chance, Ruger struggles in the knowledge that he was about to destroy Chastity’s heart but made her a promise that she was the only woman he would ever love.
The relationship between Ruger and Chastity is a forbidden romance. Keeping their romance secret was about to blow up in their face but Ruger knew that Chastity was the woman he loved even if it meant walking away from the only life he ever known. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and dynamic secondary and supporting characters including most of the previous story line couples. Club president Bull Western battles between head and heart when he discovers that his best friend is secretly in love with the young woman he considers off –limits to everyone and more. We are introduced to Gimmel Martel, a rich drug dealer with connections to the Saljav cartel.
OFF LIMITS is a story of family, blood, friendship, secrets and lies; desperation, revelations, love and happily ever after. The premise is captivating, exciting, and emotional; the character are numerous, sassy, energetic and realistic; the romance is raw and spicy.
I’M so in love with Ruger and Chastity, Mandy @ Janise’s Jivin’ Book Blog
“The Rest of the World be damned. This man was everything.” -Chastity

But That is not as easy as it sounds for Ruger the SGT. At Arms for the Kings of Mayhem Mc. Ruger’s life will soon be thrown off balance when the young and lovely Chastity needs a place to stay while her apartment is undergoing some renovations. Can Ruger keep the Off limits rule or will he give into the desire to claim the one woman he shouldn’t want or run the opposite way?
Chastity has grown but now her crush is blossoming into something more, she knows she is supposed to be the Off limits princess to all the brothers in the MC, but she wants to be with the one man she has always wanted. Age shouldnt matter right? But soon her dreams come true, but there is a kink thrown into her plan to keep the man she loves so deeply. Can Chastity become the queen he needs while fighting the unknown aspects of their relationship?
Penny Dee oh what can i say. She is truly amazing and I love the Kings of Mayhem series. I’m so glad that I had the chance to read Ruger’s story. Penny puts her characters through the mill only to come out for the better. Always filled with love, Lust and the hot alpha males searching for their queens. I can’t wait for more in this series and truly hope it continues.
I thought that this was an amazing read and an excellent addition to this terrific series. As a fan of age gap romances I was incredibly excited to read this book and it was everything I had hoped it would be. I loved Ruger and Chastity! Their attraction was undeniable, their chemistry sizzled and when they finally crossed that line the heat was scorching! The overall story pulls you in and keeps you focused with a enticing blend of raw emotions, drama, intensity, tension, suspense, twists, surprisingly sweet moments and a swoon worthy tale of forbidden romance. Simply delicious!! I am already craving the next book in this series.
This book is Hot, Hot, Hot! Older guy, younger woman, taboo type romance, but not in a way that makes me uncomfortable. (some of those really weird me out!) Add in enough of the biker drama to keep it going, and a foundation of family, and this book is definitely a winner, IMHO!
Chastity is the KOM MC princess. Brought up in the lifestyle, she has been protected, much to her displeasure! She wants what her brothers have, someone to love, and someone to love her. There is someone that she wants, but she doesn’t think she will ever have a chance with him.
Ruger has watched Chastity grow from a small girl into a woman. Now that they have been thrown together, he is looking at her differently, and isn’t sure if he is going to be able to resist the pull, even though he knows he should.
Chastity and Ruger’s story is hotter than I can say. Despite their age difference, despite all of the things against them, I think they are perfect together. Even when they are denying the connection, there is still a pull, and still respect and affection between them. I love that connection, and the sense of family they both get from the MC. Absolute perfection!
Chastity was born into the Kings and it is what she knows and loves. Being the youngest with three older brothers, niece to the MC president and a princess of the club has never been such an obstacle. Now, all that is standing in the way of being with the man she loves. Ruger is one hot Sargent-at-Arms, right hand of his best friend Bull, Prez of the club. He never saw Chastity as anything other than the sweet girl he has known his whole life. When he offers her a place to stay while her apartment is uninhabitable, he can’t help but notice her smile, her laugh, her taste in music and how much he wants to kiss her. Chastity always liked the gorgeous older man who is now consuming all of her thoughts and her fantasies. The heat coming off these two rivals Miami in the summer. I loved their relationship, how it progressed. They faced some trials for sure but it made that ending all the sweeter. Chastity is exactly what you would hope an MC princess to be and she freaking rocks! Ruger is so sexy, you could make a fortune if you could bottle it. Penny Dee is one of my favorite MC authors, she crafts the most amazing characters and gives us the most phenomenal reads. I have been dying for this book and it was perfection! Once I had it in my hands, I couldn’t bear to plow through it as I didn’t want it to end. I read it in tiny sips until I just couldn’t stand it anymore. I consumed what was left, binging it in an afternoon. Epic and beautiful, this is my favorite book in the series!
