One biker in denial.
One woman with secrets.
One enforcer with something to prove.
Three parts of one uncertain future.
Jazmine lives with secrets she buries beneath conservative clothing and avoidance of relationships. Those secrets are just one reason she spends months resisting the advances of the Hell’s Handlers’ resident flirt, Screwball. Mostly, she can’t stand Screw’s constant parade of … parade of one-night stands and inability to be serious. But the man is charming, and her resolve is only so strong. When Gumby, a romantic interest from Jazz’s past, returns to her life, she suddenly finds herself stuck between two men who hate each other on sight yet seem inexplicably drawn together.
As the new enforcer for the Hell’s Handlers Motorcycle Club, Screwball faces a challenge he’s avoided his entire life: the heavy weight of leadership. Now he’s in charge of protecting his club as threats from an enemy MC mount. Even though he doubts himself, Screw wants the opportunity to prove his worth to his brothers. Meanwhile, he also finds himself attracted to Jazz in a way he’s never experienced. When Jazz’s eye-catching biker from Arizona shows up in town, Screw finds himself wondering if a future full of commitment might be worth leaving his comfort zone.
Having grown up with a brutal father who spoke with his fists, Gumby learned early to suppress certain sides of himself. When he crosses the country in search of a woman he can’t shake from his head, he not only finds her in danger but the object of one very appealing enforcer’s desire. He soon discovers denying his true identity can be impossible when faced with real temptation.
Can three wounded souls overcome their baggage in time to save the Hell’s Handlers MC and their relationship?

This was a gut wrenching, emotional MC ride for me. It has suspense, action and romance all revolving around 3 people that were living a lie (Screwball, Jazzy and Gumby). All three were hiding behind masks or walls they built inside themselves due to past life experiences. In the storyline, all three had to not only come to terms with their pasts but they also had to live and deal with the other two in the triangle’s wounds as well. (Sorry to sound so vague but I won’t spoil this electric storyline for anyone). But I will say watching these three broken people who were all broken on the inside, lift each other up was nothing short of phemonimal. Just an amazing storyline.
The characters were spot on and written in such an in depth emotional way, that I felt like I not only knew them but could feel all the love, pain and anguish right along with them. And the storyline.. Ghezz what ride. It not only involves the trio but the Hell’s Handlers MC faces off with enemies that are attacking just a little too close to home. The book has some very high and very low emotional tides that kept me glued to the pages.
Simply put, Screw is an outstanding MC read. Kudos to the author for a job well done. If you haven’t started the Hell’s Handlers MC, I HIGHLY recommend it. It’s one of my Favorite MC Series and Screw fits right around the top of the list as well. 2 Thumbs Up and 5+stars.
**ARC Review**
I have no words…well maybe a few. Lilly Atlas has out done herself once again with Screw. This was my first mmf romance novel and I hope it will not be Lilly’s last. I loved this emotional roller coaster of a story, she had me laughing, crying and hoping the story would never end.
Screw, Gumby and Jazz’s Story is one for the record books. It is written so well that I hope there is a triad out there just like these characters. Very believable. This story is full of passion, heartbreak and true understanding. I loved it for the first word to the last. I found myself many times saying “just say your love him/her!!
My absolute favor line in Screw was “I loved you yesterday, I love you today, and I tomorrow whether you’re here with me or waiting on me among the stars.” Oh how the tears were falling and it wasn’t even said by Screw, Gumby or Jazz.
I do recommend you read the books in order (Zach, Maverick, Jigsaw, Copper, Rocket, Little Jack and Joy). You may also want to read Lilly’s No Prisoners MC series before Screw as a few more familiar faces may pop up. It will help with context and background understand of characters. Either way Screw is a 5 star book and a Re-read for me. Enjoy!!!
