Truth Alan Reacher was a biker. He was a bladesmith. What he was not, was a fool.The moment he walked in on his girl screwing his cousin on his bike, he does the only thing he can do.He ditches the bike seat—and the girl—riding right out of her life without a backwards glance.That is until he’s forced to attend the marriage of his cousin to his cheating ex-girlfriend. The only bright spot of the … only bright spot of the entire thing was watching some chick go off on the groom—the groom’s ex-fiancé—right in the middle of the bouquet toss.
Verity Ruthann Cassidy was supposed to be here today attending this wedding as the bride, not watching the festivities as a guest from the chairs she’d painstakingly purchased covers for while her fiancé—now her ex-fiancé—screwed around on her with another woman.
The icing on the wedding cake that she refuses to eat? She’s forced to attend the wedding due to her mother being the wedding planner.
However, the night doesn’t turn out quite the way she expects it due to the hot-as-hell biker sitting in the chair directly beside her. The man gave one hell of a speech during the reception that sounded like something that could have come straight out of her own mouth, and she enjoyed every single second of it.
Thrown together under similarly lousy circumstances, the two newly single jilted former lovers of the happy couple decide to go to Vegas on what was to be Verity’s honeymoon trip.
One thing leads to another, and the next thing they know, their night has gone from a celebration of being single to a marriage—to each other.
Verity and Truth now have to figure out if everything that happens in Vegas should stay in Vegas.

the way that Truth and Verity came together was one that was pretty funny. but also proof that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas. Truth may not be a relationship kind of guy, but when it comes to Verity that’s something that can change.
i found myself laughing and going WTF at some of the moments in this book. but this is something that i wanted when i read the blurp for this one. and i was not disappointed. another one that will be added to the re-read list.
This story starts off with Truth finding out what truly is going on with his current relationship. While not even three hours later Verity is finding out the truth about her wedding. Then going off to Vegas with a stranger who is going thru the same thing she is. But what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay there which these two find out.
Someone from Truths past is causing havoc on his life and trying to take away everyone who means something to him. And of course like the hero that he is, he tries to push Verity away. But the best laid plans don’t always work.
I would recommend reading the book to find out the details. It’s a really great book.
Wow! Could anything else happen to this couple! Elizabeth @ Carolina Chic’s Read
Truth & Verity have so much happen to them. First the people they love the most betray them, what do they do? They go to Vegas! Sometimes what happens in Vegas follows you home. Neither of them expect the whirlwind of bad things coming their way. Truth looses so many family members, then he finds he is the target of everything! All that unfolds is quite shocking but keeps our couple locked tight together!
5 Shocking Stars !
Truth and Verity’s story had me crying, swooning, leaping for joy and so in love. This series has it all, I have loved each and everyone of them. Love how protective these men are and how smacked in the face in love they become. Cant wait to read more from Ms. Vale.
This is the third book in the Dixie Wardens Rejects MC series and I would have to say that Truth’s story would be the best so far. As a hard core Lani Lynn Vale fan I know I am going to be guaranteed a book that I not only enjoy and love but it will never be anything less than a five star read. Truth meets Verity at a wedding that neither of them should have had to attend but that one meeting changes their futures. Truth has things in his past that he is not proud of and the main cause of his shame comes back to not only mess with his life, but to destroy those of the ones he loves the most. This book had some of the most hilarious parts in it one of them made me laugh for ages and even thinking about it now makes me smile. As per the Lani Lynn trait we get our dose of her little phrases and sayings at the start of each chapter and some of these would have to be her best work, lets just say there is one that refers to a washing machine that had me laughing out loud. Some of my best loved parts of this story include a few of our favourites from the Dixie Warden Benton, Louisiana Chapter. I loved the dynamics between Truth and Verity and they are characters that not only touched your heart but made it easy for you to share every emotion that they experienced. Their story was not an easy one with Truth pushing every inch of the way but Verity’s strength was never ending and she wasn’t going to give up on him. I love how this series gives us little insights into the suspense and secrets that are surrounding Ghost keeping us intrigued and guessing who he actually might be. No other way of rating this book than an absolute well earned five stars.
Truth and Verity’s story is definitely a page turner. All the feels were there. It was well written and an amazing story.
This is the third book in the Dixie Wardens Rejects series. They are stand alones. So far, this is my favorite from this series. I’ve loved Truth since the first book. He’s been so funny in the other two books. I’m still eagerly waiting for Ghost’s story and plan to do a re-read of all of Lani’s other books so that I can try to figure out who Ghost is!
Truth had me laughing right from the start with this one.
“One man’s used up slut is another man’s brand new bride.”
That has to be the best wedding speech that I’ve ever heard.
What Kenneth and Destiny did to Verity is horrible. I mean come on, her dress, car, and wedding.
But it did put her and Truth together.
Not everything that happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. But sometimes you don’t always remember what happened right away.
Truth’s past comes out to play in this book. I won’t say much, but I wasn’t expecting that.
These two are great together.
The quotes at the beginning of the chapters were awesome, as usual.
“I’m not saying she’s a hoe, but she’s taken more loads than a washing machine.”
-Verity to Truth upon discussion of Truth’s ex.
“Ladies, just a reminder. There’s always another man out there with an extra inch more than the one who’s fucking you over.”
-Fact of life
YES, read the previous books, its crazy not too. Truth walked in and found his girlfriend and his cousin together, on his bike, naked. So of course Truth ditches the girl, the cousin, and the bike seat. Verity walks into the dress shop to try on her wedding dress, only to find another woman in it, and that’s how she finds out her fiancée has been cheating.
Both having been made to go to the wedding disaster of the year, they figure out they have a bit in common. This turns into a quick Vegas trip, while drunk mind you. But what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas…. what happens when they realize they got married? When a ghost from Truth’s past comes back to haunt him and take out those closest too him, will he be able to keep Verity safe?
In true Lani Lynn Vale fashion, this plays like a movie, that has you going through all the feels. Super hot sexy times, major drama, and the perfect amount of danger to make things interesting but not over the top. This is a 5 star read and I am sooo freaking excited for the next book…. as I know or think I know who it is.
Truth and Verity were dealt raw hands. But then attended the wedding that changed their lives. Truth didn’t want to go watch his cousin marry his ex and Verity was suppose to be the bride. Love this book. Funny, sad and amazing.
Truth and Verity. They got together under horrible circumstances and were just….. drawn together. Even though there was danger, and Truth acted horribly to Verity (men suck, and think they know what’s best for everyone else, even when they really dont) she is amazing and holds it together. I love how all of the series fit together, and how characters from previous books keep popping up. I love how well their personalities and lives fit together, and how similar their artistry is. I think it’s a beautiful pairing!
Son of a Beard can be read as a standalone but I strongly suggest you read this series in order. No it’s not absolutely necessary but it’s quite helpful so your familiar with the characters and their pasts.
Truth. I knew I was going to love him from the previous books.
A sexy, built, possessive motorcycle riding bad ass blacksmith, what’s not to love?
He’s been screwed over by his ex when he catches her with his cousin and that put a huge damper on his need to get involved with any woman anytime soon. Sadly the happy couple are getting married and Truth has to attend the wedding where he runs meets Verity….
Verity had exactly what she thought she wanted, getting married in a few weeks she heads to the dress shop for her wedding gown only to find it’s been altered and is currently on another woman.
She’s then forced to attend the wedding of her ex and his new bride because her mother is catering the wedding.
But there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel right?
That light happens to come in the form of a sexy biker who gives the best man speech of a lifetime.
Finding out his ex just married hers gives them something to occupy themselves during what could be the worst day of their lives.
They head out on what was supposed to be Verity’s honeymoon to Vegas and you know that saying what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas? Well, not so much for these two!
Son of a Beard is hilarious. Yes there’s drama, serious situations, plenty of sexy times but there’s enough snark and straight up hilarious comments/situations that will make you snort throughout giving this one a bit of an edge over the previous books in the series. Truth an Verity are my new favorites
This has to be one of my favorite Lani Lynn Vale books I know I know I say that all the time but this author is just that good . The characters are really lovable I fall for them all the time , funny banter that brings tears to my eyes , steamy sex scenes that have me blushing , also sad tears and she keeps teasing us on who GHOST is I have an idea and I hope I am right can not wait for his book . Truth the yummy alpha that he his makes me want to ride a beard from first page I fell hard for him he’s a bladesmith (so awesome by the way )with huge muscles that are soooooo droll worthy my heart breaks for him a lot , he’s funny , protective , and one hell of a dirty talker . I always have a girl crush on the heroines in Lanis books and I had a gigantic crush on Verity she is just that freaking awesome funny , protective , strong , and confident . These two don’t meet in the ideal way but what a way to meet , they shared a strong connection that was super intense and had me jelly they just fit perfectly together . It’s always good to see how the couples from past books are doing , if this is your first lani lynn vale book for you be prepared to buy everyone of them and what are you waiting for one click them all NOW you can read his as a standalone but why would you want to do that crazy you’ll have a better experience if you read them all so READ them all .
