*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
I have been waiting for Neala and Tremor’s story and the wait was so worth it. These two have fought their attraction for two years as he attempted to earn his patch. Just when things look bad he learns the lesson he really needed to learn in order to turn it all around. Greatly detailed with lots of MC parts yet still sweet in its own way and full of surprises. Perfect for this series and fans of the genre. I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.
Hmmmm this one had me on the fence but since it was mainly due to my own hang ups I wont penalize the author. The books well written and the club rules, loyalties stand in the way of love. But Lala knows the drill after all the club has been her life. Tremor on the other hand not only needs his patch but he also needs the clubs protection. The games that are played in this story lead to unnecessary suffering for these two but when it comes down to it their love will be what saves them. There’s other stuff going on between having an attack on Lala and Tremor’s father along with some brutal truths being revealed it’s a read that’s filled with action and yeah a few bodies. These guys have had a brutal life but they have found old ladies that make them proud and stand by them through it all.

Looking to get your fix of bad boy biker turned sweetheart? Or sassy biker chicks that take no shit? Then look no further, Sufferance does the trick. This is the fourth in the Chicago Defiance series but it’s my first time reading KE Obsorn and I enjoyed it immensely.
Tremor (yes that’s his real name, the reason why is a heartbreaking gut punch) is a prospect for the Chicago Defiance MC having finally found the family he’s longed for his entire life. He’s putting in his time, well actually a little more than his share of time, since the MC president isn’t exactly on board with Trem’s feelings for a certain biker princess. As the sister of the Pres, Neala “Lala” is off limits but convincing Trem’s heart and other body parts has been a little hard to do. He’s been crazy about her for ages but her brother has made it known that touching her will cost him his patch. Going a little crazy trying to keep his distance is nothing new for him but when another brother starts to put the (oh so disgusting and creepy) moves on Lala, Trem can’t help but try to protect her. Nothing has ever been as important as his patch and earning his place in the brotherhood for good, but when faced with losing Lala, Trem just might realize she’s the only thing he’s ever needed.
Neala knows how desperate Trem is for his patch and can’t stand that he’s willing to choose it over her but understands his need for the brotherhood he’s never had. Trying desperately to just avoid each other isn’t working though. It’s left them in no-man’s-land and everyone’s sick of it, even her idiot brother that caused all the drama in forcing them apart. They both need to move on, only he’s the only one successful at it. Everytime he sneaks away to run to “Chloe” her heart breaks a little more. While Neala suffers through her heartbreak, one of the oldest brothers in the MC becomes disturbingly fixated on her. Dodging Renegade’s disgusting advances and running from her feelings for Trem is a full time job. Something’s got to give, hopefully it won’t be her…
I loved, and hated, this book. OK really, it was Tremor I felt that way about. He’s such a great guy but he’s an idiot when it comes to Neala, putting up an elaborate ruse to “help her move on” and only hurting her worse. Why are guys so dumb?? It takes almost losing her for good but thankfully he figures it out and boy, when this biker gets sweet, watch out. I love the characters from this MC and am delighted to catch up on all I’ve missed in the previous books. Great read!

This is thw fourth book in the Chicago Defiance MC series and even though I haven’t read the first 3 books but that didn’t matter, although my interest in the other characters and their stories is peaked.
Neala is the club Princess, the Presidents Sister and has always been off limits to the brothers. I loved Neala she was sexy, feisty and strong willed considering her over-protective bothers. Tremor is a club Prospect and totally in love with the club Princess. but he is working hard to get his Patch.
The chemistry between Neala and Tremor is combustible but whilst he is putting the club before Neala they don’t stand a chance. Even though he won’t claim her, he will still protect her.
This was filled with action, drama and secrets, plus love, loyalty, family and passion. I am looking forward to the next one Acceptance
Tremor is a prospect in the Defiance MC Club but is also in love with Neala (Lala) – however, she is the Torque the Club President’s little sister and has basically told him to stay away from her. So he feels he has a choice – the Club or her? There is also some betrayal on the way – can they all survive it and can he get the girl he loves as well as the patch he desperately wants?
Wow – there were so many twists, turns and lots of drama in this story. Granted there were times I wanted to bang some heads together and try to make sense prevail but they did eventually get with the program! The betrayal was definitely a surprise in several ways but that in itself was charming and a welcome antidote to some misconceptions. Well written and a great read it was perfect for anyone who likes sassy women and strong men who are not afraid to show emotion.
Another great addition to this series. Sufferance is Book 4 in the Defiance MC Series and can be read as a stand-alone, but better read in order for more of the club’s story. This is Neala and Tremor’s story.
While Layla and Tremor play a game of push and pull and try to figure out what’s right for them the club learns they have a couple of enemies that are really close to home. The chaos continues as things heat up for Lala, Tremor and the club. Packed full of action, drama, deceit, heartbreak, love and so much more!
Tremor is a prospect with the MC and in love with Neala the President and Vice President of the club’s sister. The MC princess and the prospect just doesn’t work in that world. These two had a difficult road to travel but they did it. A really good read and series.
Holy hell the Defiance MC guys are back and are hotter than ever!! I’ve been waiting to read Tremor & Neala’s story since we first got hints of it in the previous stories. KE Osborn not only delivered their story with passion but with a vengeance. This story was not only about Tremor and Neala finding their way, but about loyalty and commitment. Not to mention the haunting past knocking on Tremor’s door threatening everything. But this is the exact reason Tremor joined Defiance MC and now it’s time to see the brothers have his back.
Loyalty. Commitment. Love.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review
Tremor/Pyro and Neala/Lala ~ Now K E Osborn got me LLllllloooovvvvveeee her books. Gee, she is soooo good writer. They are so badass bikers. Poor thing in between Tremor and Lala fought each other. They don’t know what to do and got stuck each other but it is worth it to read all the way that I wanted to know what the hell is going on with them LOL!!!
Wow, another amazing book. So much miscommunication, and anxiety. I couldn’t put it down once I started.
I loved Tremor and Neala in the other books. And I was so happy they got a book.
KE Osborn did amazing job on this book.
I can’t wait for more.
I loved this story and it left me wanting to read the other books in the series. You can never go wrong with a book by this author and you’re always guaranteed a gripping hot read that keeps you hooked throughout. As with any book I’ve read by KE Osborne, this is a definite recommended read
AWESOME STORY!!!
This is the 4th book in the Chicago Defiance MC series and i thought it was awesome. I just loved Tremor and Neala’s story. He’s a prospect, hoping to earn his patch and she’s the club princess. Her brother is the club’s president and very protective of his little sister. The chemistry between Tremor and Neala is off the charts. You know they’re meant to be together. But does fate have something else in store for these two? Can Tremor earn his patch without losing the woman he loves? This is another great addition to this series. I can’t wait to read where KE takes us next.
I’ve been waiting for this book since the beginning of the series. These two have tiptoed around each other, love then hate and everything in between. KE did an amazing job of including all our favorite in this book, giving us a little twisty turn here and there and keeping me utterly entertained. I love the banter between the MC boys and as always the club girls are AMAZING! I would HIGHLY recommend you one this book now!!!
4 Stars
Sufferance is the fourth addition to The Chicago Defiance MC series, and whilst you could probably read it as a standalone, I highly recommend the entire series as I’ve been captivated with these characters since reading Resistance. Much like the three previous titles in this series, Sufferance is full of drama, intrigue and suspense.
Tremor is a conflicted hero who has two very strong desires. He’s desperate to become a patched member of The Chicago Defiance, but he also is desperate to win Neala’s heart. He’s a sexy, protective, stubborn alpha you is as endearing as he is frustrating!
Neala is the club princess, and the younger sister of the President and Vice President of The Chicago Defiance MC. She’s strong and sassy and just as likeable, as the other old ladies.
Sufferance is a hot, steamy story of loyalty and commitment, that kept me completely enthralled, and has left me eager for more of The Chicago Defiance MC.
What would you do if you met the one person you know you’re fated to be with, yet is seems like time, maybe even the world – or at least those in you part of it – are against you being together?
Sounds like you’re worst nightmare, right? Well, it’s reality for Tremor and Neala (Lala). See, the circumstances aren’t exactly conducive to a relationship. Tremor is a prospect with the Chicago Defiance MC and Lala’s older brother is the president, making her, for all intents and purposes, a “princess” to the club. As such, she’s not only loved by all, watched over and protected by them as well, but she’s also off-limits.
Tremor has wanted Lala for longer than he should admit, but his heart and body call out for hers, and despite the fact she answers and reciprocates, if they act on it, he’s been informed he’ll lose his patch.
Though Lala doesn’t want him to lose the brotherhood the MC provides him, knowing how much he needs that in his life, it doesn’t change the fact that it hurts when he chooses them over her. Yes, she knows that doesn’t make sense, but emotions always don’t.
Lala knows if they can’t be together, and they can’t based upon her older brother’s decree, that they each need to move on. However, it seems as if Tremor is having a much easier time doing so, something that breaks the heart she’d already given him. However, things aren’t always as they seem and it could be that Tremor is just trying to do what others feel is the right thing, regardless of what he and Lala truly want…which is each other. But when another member, an older one that scares Lala, starts making a move on her, Tremor no longer cares what could or will happen to him – nothing matters more than keeping her safe.
One-click now and follow along as two people, each in love with the other yet knowing it’s “forbidden,” must decide what’s more important. I liked the two characters and the plot was interesting – a forbidden love? come on, that’s a pot of gold in romance land – but Tremor definitely could’ve handled things differently. While I’m glad it was all an act, you don’t do something like that, knowing how much it’ll hurt the woman you claim to love. If it hadn’t been for that stupid and heartbreaking plan, I would’ve enjoyed this much more.- By Elizabeth
Tremor wants to go back to before Torque, her brother, found them together, and he told him to leave or he wouldn’t get his patch, he knew he couldn’t have both, his patch and Neala, but it broke something between them.
Neala can’t understand, when Torque found them, she thought he basically gave them his blessing, but everything has gone wrong, Tremor choose his patch over her, he doesn’t know that Torque gave his blessing, but the chemistry is there but he seems to only want to be friends and then there’s Chloe.
Leaving for the competition, Tremor doesn’t understand when Torque asks if Neala talked to him, letting him know it’s for the best she didn’t, even more surprised when Torque says they need to sort it out, not understanding when he wanted them apart in the first place.
Ready to head to his room, Torque lets them know there are room allocations, he never expected to be put with Neala, but they know if anything happens Tremor will protect her, Torque reminds them they have separate beds, and it has to stay that way. Neala can’t believe what Torque has done, but he lets her know he just wants her happy and they need to sort out their shit.
What could go wrong Tremor wants his patch, Neala believes he’s moved on with Chloe, it should be easy. Tremor doesn’t know that Torque is ok with the idea of Neala and Tremor, Neala doesn’t know that Chloe isn’t Tremor’s girlfriend will the be able to work it out, or, will Tremor work out that Neala is worth more than his patch.
5 Pyro Filled Stars!!!
Finally!!! I’ve wanted Tremor and Neala’s story since it started in Resistance and it continued through out Penance and Deviance.
Tremor is a prospect to The Chicago Defiance MC. He bleeds the MC and will do anything his President and VP ask of him. Tremor never thought they’d give an order he wouldn’t do without question.
That was until he fell in love with Neala. She’s the most important thing to his President and VP. Tremor wants to be with Neala more then anything. He also looks after his cousin Chloe whose fighting cancer.
Tremor wishes it was an easy choice to make. His President warned him it was his sister or his patch. Tremor might want Neala thinking he didn’t choose her but he’ll continue loving and protecting her even if she doesn’t know it.
Neala is the princess of The Chicago Defiance MC. Her oldest brother is the clubs President and her other brother the VP. She fell in love with the clubs prospect Tremor. Neala grew up in this club with her dad being a founding member. When it comes to club rules she gets it. The club will always come first. But, when Tremor didn’t pick her it hurt more then she’ll admit.
Neala’s trying to do what she’s gotta do. She’s starting her business, enjoying her niece and nephew. Neala’s trying to not let this thing with Tremor destroy her. But, when another brother starts getting handsy Neala doesn’t feel good about it. He makes her cringe. And, like always Tremor’s there to save and protect her. But, before they get their HEA somebody from Tremor’s past comes back looking for him.
Tremor and Neala’s story was beautiful. These two have so much love and respect for each other and their club. They had a lot against them. It would’ve been a bit easier if Neala’s big brother Torque play them both. But, seeing Trax giving Tremor his nod of approval and advice to win Torque over was amazing!!
Once I picked up this book I couldn’t put it down. Tremor is amazing and Neala’s equally amazing!!!
After reading this I’m dying for Chain’s story!! I mean my jaw was dropped along with everybody else at the clubhouse when everything unfolded.
Lemme say when Tremor got his patch/road name I legit got chills and couldn’t stop smiling. ESP when he spoke about it later on. It was 110% fitting for him.
I’m hoping KE Osborn writes lots more of these brothers books. Bc, I don’t wanna say goodbye to this MC
As a big fan of this series, Chicago Defiance MC, I have been waiting for this story of Neala and Tremor! Neala being the Club Princess, sister of the Club President and Vice President, and Tremor being only a prospect. There was a lot of angst in this one. With Tremor staying away from Neala because her big brother, and Tremor’s Club President didn’t want them together. Tremor wanted Neala and his patch, and to truly be a part of the Club. Neala just wanted Tremor. So you can see where there was a lot of frustration and angst. But it was a great story! Sometimes very emotional. So much happens. Lots of heat in this one…very hot!! Plus, of course, lots of Club action. If it seems I’m being vague, it’s on purpose. I hate when people ruin the book for you and I refuse to do that. But if you enjoy a good MC Romance, this is a great series!!! I’m already looking forward to book 5 next month!!!
SWEET BABY JESUS HOLY HADES this is I think my favorite one in the series so far. I love them all but this one was tricky because you have a prospect who is trying to patch in the club but is in love with the President’s little sister. He knows he can’t have both but he is willing to try. And try these two do but they are both scared of being found out.
Tremor and Neala are in love but at what cost are they willing to pay for that love? Tremor wants to be patched in so bad but he loves Neala and wants her to. What is he to do? The club is everything to him but his heart is even bigger. Knowing that he could be killed by the President and brothers he takes a chance on love until it is time to be patched in he chooses the patch and Neala is pissed off at him.
Will she ever forgive him? Will they end up together? This story had me on a roller coaster ride because I never knew what was going to happen next. This is a MUST MUST read series!
Sufferance is book 4 in the Chicago Defiance MC series and I am super excited!!
I’m so happy that we finally get to read Tremor and Neala’s story!
Tremor is a broken guy. He can’t have all, his path or the girl of his life.
After one delicious taste of the MC princess, Tremor can’t get her off his brain, but in order to have her, the Prospect needs to give up the MC and his dream to have his full patch. And is that something he would be willing to do ? Not when the MC princess brothers , better known as his Prez and VP, have been the ones to issue the ultimatum- his patch or their sister. Desperately wanting to belong, Tremor wrongly picks the club and misleads Lala (Neala) into believing his ill cousin Chloe is the woman in his life/bed.
Lala is so in love with Tremor after their rapid affair, but she doesn’t get why he suddenly pushes her away; the chemistry is there as well as the connection. Lala isn’t about to chase after any man even if she’s in love with him. Soon Lala is facing danger from one of the brothers Renegade when he starts to show a very creepy interest in her. This is when Tremor is right back into her life and wants to tear him apart. He ends up getting calm and he searches for Sensi and asks him to train Lala to defend herself.
Will this be enough to keep her safe from Renegade or make her pay for a debt he claims her late father owes him. This story is full of drama, tension, angst, twists, heat, passion and romance. I look forward to book 5 in the series.
My Rating: 4.5 stars *****
