I’ve spent a lot of years as a hit-it-and-quit-it player only seeking a good time. As Vice President of the Lost Kings Motorcycle Club, willing women are never in short supply.I never needed any of them for long.Until I met her.My perfect woman. Like a mermaid, she was beautiful, smart, and hard to hold onto.I thought I’d convinced her we’d be good together long-term, but then she disappeared … she disappeared without a word.
Almost three years.
That’s how long it’s been since I saw her.
Just as I finally moved on, my mythical woman resurfaces.
She forgot to mention one little thing before she vanished.
One small secret growing up into a big lie.
It’s a betrayal too big to overcome.
I should hate her.
Even though she’s heartbreak wrapped in a seductive package.
I want her more than ever.
Zero Tolerance is part one of a trilogy.

I devoured this book.
And I mean DEVOURED!
I read the entire book throughout the span of a night because I’d keep waking up and immediately open my kindle instead of going back to sleep.
I was obsessed!
Lilly is perfect for Z.
I’ve always known that.
Even with her absence I was hopeful.
At this point in time, I’m pretty frustrated with her BUT I KNOW there’s more to her story and I’m anxious to find out what it is!
I’m doing my best to withhold judgment till then and am completely confident that Autumn Jones Lake will spin it in a way that is perfect and mind-blowing!
Teller has always been my favorite in the series but Z is not far behind and I fell even more in love with his character while reading this book.
We know Z as the hot playful manwhore, but he has a lot more depth and heart than most give him credit for.
His actions in this novel endeared him to me. I continually found myself sighing with hearts in my eyes!
Due to certain events so much is up in the air for the Lost Kings, and there are still so many secrets that need to be revealed and I am terrified!
I’m pretty sure the ending of this book gave me high blood pressure but ya know what?
I loved every anxious minute of it!
The wait till part two is going to be agonizing but no doubt well worth it!
Lost Kings MC #12
Now where the hell have I been? Why is this first book I have read by Autumn Jones Lake? Before I started writing this, I was clicking all the other books to my TBR list!
Zero Tolerance is the 12th book in the series, but I can honestly say it can be read as a stand alone. This is the first book I have read in this series or from this author and it was fantastic!
Zero and Lilly have history, they have a long history. (I did pick up the novella Zero Hour: A Prequel to Zero Tolerance. It’s free!) That establishes the long history between the two of them.
I loved how Lilly embraced her love of sex, it was refreshing to read a heroine that wasn’t afraid to ask for what she wants. She isn’t ashamed of her past and what she had to do to get to where she is today. There is a bit of a mystery to her, which kept me guessing until the end….and now I am gonna have to wait for the next book in the series!
Zero, oh my me…he is the epitome of a MC Alpha! He is tough, he is strong, he has love for his brothers in the club and he goes after what he wants, and that’s Lilly. Even after all she put him through and the bombshell she drops on him, he is steady, he is forever hers.
You have found a new fan Ms. Jones Lake! I will be stalking you on all the social media!! I am glad I got the opportunity to read and review this!
Another amazing book by the great Autumn Jones Lake. Zero is the perfect mix of sweet, sexy, dangerous and rugged. You can’t help but fall more in love with him in this book. As for Lily, I’ve always liked Lily and I really like her in this book. You definitely get a better idea of her family life and how that molded her into the woman she is today. You can’t help but sympathize for her. That being said she frustrates that crap out of me in this book too, I just want to shake some sense into her!
The whole LOKI family is amazing as always so it is awesome to be reunited with them and see all the love and support they offer their brother Z while he’s dealing with so much chaos. Especially my man Rock who knows how to hold it down and be the great leader he is. #RockisMYfox
Now, moving back to Z lol, I’m really excited to see what happens in Zero Regret, I can only hope that Z gets the happy ending he deserves.
This was yet another amazing read from Autumn.
Have been waiting for this story for awhile as she’s hinted at it throughout the series, boy was it worth the wait.
Couldn’t put it down from start to finish and May better come quickly!!!
Love how the guys are settling down, but this book brings back some of the gritty and dangerous side of MC life so buckle up, you’re in for a hell of a ride!
WHAT DID I JUST READ? I’LL TELL YOU, ANOTHER GREAT BOOK FROM AUTUMN JONES LAKE!!! I HAVE WAITED FOR Z’S BOOK FOREVER AND IT WAS AMAZING! Z LET LILY GET TO CLOSE AND SHE UP AND DISAPPEARS ON HIM. HE TRIES TO FORGET HER WITH AN ENDLESS AMOUNT OF WOMEN, BUT SHES ALWAYS THERE IN THE BACK OF HIS MIND! THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN SHES BACK, AND SHES NOT ALONE, A SECRET SHE HAS KEPT FROM Z FOR TWO YEARS.
WHAT I LOVE MOST WITH THIS SERIES IS THE WAY THE MC TAKES CARE OF THEIR OWN AND IS THERE FOR ONE ANOTHER, WHETHER THEY WANT IT OR NOT. AND THE INTERACTION BETWEEN THEM LEAVES ME IN STITCHES!!!!! LOVE THE BANTER AND BACK AND FORTH JABS!!!
THE ENDING LEAVES US ON A CLIFFHANGER…..SO I CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN BOOK 2
I THINK LILY HAS ALOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO…..I KNOW ITS GONNA BE GOOD THOUGH!!!!!
I just love this series sooo much
Zero or Z as some of his brothers call him, has had his life turned upside down, but you can’t say no when the major prez asks you do something. You just do it, and find a way to make it work.
Is Lily willing to turn her life upside down for a man? Can she also start to make head way with how her past is now creeping up on her, promises made before she came back to New York? How will Z take these promises……
So glad to have finally gotten Z and Lilly’s story. Did not see some of this stuff coming. Good read.
Loved the whole series and wonderful.
WOW, just when I didn’t think Autumn would blow my mind anymore, she does it. Once again she proves my mind is complete mush after reading this amazing story. The characters and the events really had me on edge the whole story with each page turn something new and exciting was waiting for me. I fell in love with all the characters hard, they had a way to really tell the story this time around even if you knew who they are from previous stories it was nice getting to know them once again. I loved the story all the way to the end my jaw dropped hard, I couldn’t believe what I had just read. MUST READ you really don’t have to read the previous books but that’s where I would recommend reading them it helps the stories come together. I could give so many spoilers away but I wont this story is that good Read it.
The long await Zero Tolerance book. And it was everything I wanted, and more. You cant help, but love Z and Lilly. It has everything from laughter to secrets to revelations.
Autumn Jones Lake out did herself with this book. She gave us everything we wanted from these two and more
Masterfully crafted, captivating, intriguing and entertaining!
Okay, I asked if a could start this series right here, or at lear with Zero Hour (the prequel to Zero Tolerance), and the answer was yes. Yeah, easy to say for someone that has read the entire series.
Nevertheless, I’ve already started this series (yup, and I’m already on book 3), anyways, all I can say about this particular story, is that is about forgiveness, second chances, understanding, patience, and the ability to control your emotions when confronting a life changing reality and the biggest betrayal from the least person expected. (Great storyline, masterfully crafted).
Z and Lilly’s story, so far has been a real treat, but it’ll be also unfair to go into details when there is a second part to their story (Zero Regret: Z and Lilly – Part Two) which releases May 16th. I can’t wait!!
So, all in all, I really enjoyed this amazing story, which had me going back to read the rest of the books. If you’re into MC Romance, I highly recommend you give it a try right here, but don’t forget to start with Zero Hour (A Prequel to Zero Tolerance).
I have waited so long for Z to get his story told, and it was worth the wait!! I am so glad this author broke his story up and we get another book about Z. At the end of After Glow the Loki clan gets a huge bombshell dropped on them. This book is all about secrets, lies, betrayal, love and forgiveness. As this story develops Z has been dealt the ultimate betrayal and can he handle the why of it? I love Z’s grit and determination. He proves over and over again just how much family and brotherhood mean to him. Will Z be able to prove to all of the naysayers just how committed he is? I can’t wait for Zero Regrets!!
Oh My God!!
I’m reading along, freaking out and BAM! Cliffhanger….. yes I knew it but I was so engrossed in what I was reading that I didn’t realize I was so close to the end. Geez, this is good. Like really, really good.
Z oh Z…… I absolutely love this man. He and Lilly are perfect for each other and now that’s she’s back and one of her secrets are out, we are getting to the good stuff. This book is exciting, sexy and we get to hang out with all our LOKI favorite characters. The writing is fantastic and I can not wait for the next book. Like really can’t wait!!!

*Review by Michelle
Zero Tolerance is the 12th book in Autumn Jones Lake MC series and it does not disappoint! Focusing on her character Z, it continues the series in a thoughtful way, that leaves you loving the character even more than you though you could. Plus there’s a great ending to keep you wanting more!
As a long time fan of Lake’s, I’m always pumped when new books in this series come out. I’ve been waiting for Z’s book and hot DAMN, it did not disappoint. I wondered, briefly, if it might be a little repetitive. This is one of many books in this series and the ideas can overlap at times, but somehow every book feels brand new.
Z and Lilly have a long history (I definitely recommend reading the prequel), it’s a story that you wanted to happen for so long and when it does, you have no idea what’s coming. It takes you on a journey that is completely unpredictable, and that makes a damn good story.
I LOVE Z! In the the previous books there have been hints of Z & Lilly’s relationship as well as Z’s desire to be in a committed relationship and someday have a family. He has always been a favorite of mine with the way he looks out for not only his MC brothers but the woman they love as well. It’s no surprise he falls for Lilly. She is perfect for Z. But this girl knows how to keep secrets & right until the end I’m hanging on to the edge of my seat with Z waiting for answers!
If you’re looking for a marvelous MC romance or something new to try pick up “Zero Tolerance” Z finally gets his very own book, which we have been patiently waiting for. Well worth the wait, I love Z & Lily’s love story. Full of steamy scenes, great one liners, and our whole lovable Lost King ‘s family. You did it again Autumn…spectacular read!
So enraptured with this story, I fell into it and didn’t resurface until the end!
Autumn has created another enthralling tale involving the beloved LOKI family. The focus this time is Lilly and Z, but AJL includes a lot of interaction and “family time” with all of the wonderful characters we’ve come to love!
So, let me start off by getting the obvious out of the way, there is lots and LOTS of steamy hotness in this book! But, this is Z we are talking about! Would you expect anything less?
I also have to be honest, at the end of the last LOKI book I was conflicted about my feelings for Lilly. I felt very protective of Z and not happy with what Lilly did. After reading Zero Tolerance, I can honestly say I have grown to really appreciate and even embrace Lilly. As far as Z goes, I will always be a fan! He is the perfect combination of strength and heart. In this story Z is feeling the wounds of betrayal deeply, but for the sake of his son he has to be the better man. He also can’t ignore the love he’s always had for Lilly. Z wisely follows advice from Rock,
“You can be right or you can be happy.”
Getting to know a sweeter side of Lilly and watching Z break down the impenetrable walls she has built was an enjoyable journey.
“I am totally lost in her. Sliding down a long slippery well of desire.”
“Her body still ripples and twists in sensual rhythm worthy of the dirtiest ballerina.”
I love the relationship they are building. Lilly has the strength Z needs and Z has the unwavering love Lilly needs. They are perfect for each other! She is it for him. But will he be it for her?
“A good woman. Children. A family of my own. That is what I’ve been wanting for years. Too bad it’s all f#*ked up.”
Just when things get comfortable, leave it to AJL to drop a bomb! This story is not short on intrigue! So many building mysteries!!! And YES…. it ends in cliff hanger! Dying to know how this one is going to play out!! So many unanswered questions and possible plot directions! Will Lilly ever fully trust or will it be too late? Is the latest betrayal too much for Z? Will they get their HEA? Definitely anxiously awaiting book two!!!!!!!!!!!!
Autumn has the finesse to create stories with the perfect amount of suspense, romance, and humor to make us fall in love with her characters and keep us captivated with her intriguing tales. This series is one you don’t want to miss!
I read an ARC of this story. My honest and fair review is voluntary.
