I loved this Royal Bastard’s novella. It sure gave me a glimpse of what’s to come. The Gift is very well written with awesome characters. The storyline is intense, action packed and intriguing. Kudos to the author for giving us a thrilling ride with The Gift.
Brodie has turned into a wildcard. When his woman is taken from him he is out for revenge with a vengeance. When the chance comes along to get his revenge he is ready and out for blood. But in the mix he finds a surprising twist he and this reader wasn’t expecting.
This is a hard hitting MC romance that I highly recommend and this reader is anxiously awaiting more from the Royal Bastards, Tonopha, NV chapter coming out way soon.
This is a great story with great characters. This story has great twists and suspense. I really enjoyed reading this book.
I received a review copy of this book and I am voluntarily giving an honest review
The Royal Bastards MC is so much more than your normal biker club when you add a paranormal aspect into the mix. They are also reapers as well. Bodie saves Sasha, his dead girlfriend’s twin, bringing her back to the clubhouse under his protection. As reapers, the club will do whatever it takes to protect their club and all those under their protection. This was a new twist to an MC story with the paranormal aspect added in, but the reader can still count on the romance, drama, and a bit of darkness that makes the NV Chapter of Royal Bastards MC a great start to the series. **I was gifted “The Biker’s Gift” via Booksprout and also own a copy, leaving my review based on my reading.** 4.25 Stars
Bodie and Sasha meet and it’s combustible from the get. His ol’; lady was killed some months before and he wants revenge. Turns out that Sasha is the twin of his deceased ol’ lady. He now has set his sight on finding their enemies, to make them pay. In the meantime, Bodie and Sasha’s feelings are growing.
From page one, you’ll be in the midst of a fast paced, page turning read. I really enjoyed this story and can’t wait to the next entry in the series.

Mixed story for me but had an interesting twist
The Biker’s Gift is the first book in the RBMC Tonopah, NV series. This is the first book I have read by Nikki Landis and I was looking forward to it, as I wanted to see if I liked her writing and storytelling styles. For me this was a mixed book. There were some things that I liked and other not so much. I will say that the PNR twist was something that made the story more interesting, as this is not a normal aspect to MC stories.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This was the first book I read from this author and I’m not going to lie, I was a little nervous going into this book because there was a paranormal twist and that’s not normally my cup of tea. I’m beyond thrilled that I took a chance on this book! The story line was great, I like the main character a lot and I actually enjoyed the paranormal aspect of the story. This book was full of plot twists that kept me glued to my seat and I definitely recommend it!

Bodie has struggled for the past six months since his girlfriend was murdered by a rival MC. The Royal Bastards are a motorcycle club who have made a deal for certain powers in order to seek vengeance, and Bodie can think of nothing else. When he is ambushed by the same MC he takes a woman home with him to protect her. Sasha is full of surprises for Bodie, and Bodie and the Royal Bastards are a surprise to Sasha as well. There’s a lot of action and bloody violence along with a touch of supernatural energy. It’s a fast-paced, exciting beginning to a new series. I received an advance copy of this book and voluntarily left a review.
This is the first in this series. Brodie lost his woman to murder six months ago and left the MC to get away from things. The MC is needing him back now. When he returns he meets his woman’s twin sister he didn’t know she had. Sasha wants revenge for her sister being murdered. There is an instant attraction of course being twins. But Sasha is not the same as her sister was. How will things play out between this couple? Lots to read and find out. So grab this series and read on.

Bodie lost everything when he lost his ol’ lady. Now he’s lost and wallowing in his grief. Then his pres sends him on a mission that might allow him vengeance, he takes off. What he sees shocks him beyond belief – there is way more going on than he could have imagined. But he’s able to handle it because he is way more than anyone could imagine. Now he has a chance to get vengeance, a new woman and find some peace.
This was a fast and easy read (Novella length) but Bodie and Sasha were well fleshed out and believable in their reactions. The RBMC is made up of MC members that are more than they seem. I loved the paranormal aspect and the fact that they weren’t necessarily ‘good’ guys – but they were better than the bad guys. They are truly fighting evil and they wait until they are sure to act, but then they take no prisoners. I enjoyed meeting the members and look forward to all their stories.
This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. The Biker’s Gift by Nikki Landis is the series opener for her new Royal Bastards MC series. WOW! As a series opener this really grabs you and throws you into a chair. You can expect to be entertained, insulted, happy, angry surprised and wowed! The twists that this story takes… Brodie was lost after the death of his woman. But his responsibilities to the MC didn’t stop. Suddenly, Fate gives him a kick in the pants and jump starts his heart and life. A great series opener that promises so much to come…

I received an ARC from the author thru Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving my review. This is a biker romance with paranormal aspects and is the beginning to the Royal Bastards MC Tonopah, NV series. Bodie lost his old lady and went off the deep end some. His Prez has given him the chance at vengeance that leads to a shocking discovery. Sasha and Bodie have an intense chemistry regardless of this new twist in their lives. This is a fast paced, short story full of drama, danger, revenge with an unexpected love thrown in the mix. I enjoyed their story and look forward to what comes next in the series

The Tonopah Chapter of the Royal Bastards is unlike all the other chapters. They are literally Reapers. Bodie comes face to face with his dead woman six months after she “died”. Only it’s the woman’s twin sister, can Bodie really be given a second chance at love? Will Sasha be able to live her life are still have to pay for the sins of her sister? Will the bastard finally take care of the problems from the past?
This is a great series and very well written. This book is best read in order to understand who everyone is and which club they come from.

A very different view of the MC Romance genre. The paranormal side of the story was a lot like the movie Ghost Rider – Spirit of Vengeance but maybe a little grittier. Glad to see the female protagonist, Sasha, was a strong female and able to stand up to some rather unsavoury characters along with Bodie. I liked the book well enough to continue exploring the world of the RBMC.

Really enjoyed Nikki’s take on the Royal Bastards MC, it is different than anyone else’s as it really brings in another demention. I liked how she describes the Devil’s ride, and the brothers.
The love story is different also, as it is a new romance resulting from an old one.
I hope you Enjoy this as much as I did.

First of all, I have to say this is my first time reading MC where there first book in the series isn’t about the Prez or the VP. Secondly, it have paranormal side in it.
As a holliday novella, this book definitly dark. Not your average sweet holliday novella.
Hot AF absolutely! Fast pace and love fast, Bodies and Sasha find them self bound together.
Bloody revenge and more than scary retaliation against the scorpion, is something I never see in MC romance before. The paranormal side definitly play big part in this. Since the Tonovah Royal Bastard is the Reapers of the devil.
Amazing detail from the author when describing the Reapers look on the members.

Triggers: assault, murder
**spoilers**
This is part of the Royal Bastards MC world.
Sasha, working at a bar hoping to get revenge on her twin sisters killer.
Bodie, mc guy whose gf was murdered. He also apparently has some Paranormal tendencies.
Bodie meets Sasha, his dead gf’s twin. It’s pretty much insta lust. Some quick sexy time.
Bad guys grab Sasha. Bodie and mc to the rescue.
HEA
I give the story 4 stars for the writing but 2.5 stars because the H ends up with his dead gf’s sister. Thats a no-no for me.
I recieved this book for Free to Give My True & Honest Review
This is my first book by Nikki Landis & I felt like this was the 2nd book in this series of Royal Ba**ards MC with the way the story starts from the past 6 mths prior where Sasha’s identical twin suraya whom the club knew as she was the VP Bodie’s Old Lady & Sasha came to their area to get the revenge of the people who ended her life, even though she knows deep down they got the wrong person.
Their Rival Club, Scorpions are the other MC who are taking their gear & they have a feeling they’re to do with the killing & they came back & started again where Trish the VP Grim’s old lady was good friends & was with Suraya when things went down & has become friends with Sasha.
So we see how things go down when Bodie sees Sasha & takes her to the Club House & then she couldn’t get hold of Trish.
So we see how things carry out with how things proceed with her, the Royal Ba**rds, Trish & The Scorpions
Intriguing Reaper element
—>>> Mistaken identity is what causes Sasha’s twin sister to be murdered in cold blood, and time is running out for her, because a nasty MC is chasing her tail. When Bodie sees someone who is exactly like the woman he had loved and lost six months ago, he was cut off at the knees. She may look like Suraya, but Sasha has a completely different personality. She is feisty, brave, and very sexy. With the protection of the Royal Bastards MC, they are going to exact vengeance on everyone responsible and rid themselves of the Scorpion prez once and for all. Intriguing Reaper element which I look forward to learning more about, as well as an interesting set of secondary MC characters introduced for me, as a first-time reader into this series.
This is a MC romance novella with a paranormal twist to it. It’s short so it’s hard to really connect with the characters but what we got was good and well written.
I liked Sasha and Bodie together I’m glad they got a sweet hea
