Holding Out

Lila Rose — 2020

Not everything is roses, chocolates and vibrators in Zara's life...until Talon, Hawks MC President, wants to claim her as his. Zara Edgingway is a twenty-six-year-old secretary. She has a daughter that apparently knows-it-all and a best friend that could possibly have the mouth of Satan, but she's been with her through hell and back. Then there's the hunk'a'licious biker neighbour finally showing interest in her. If only she isn't about to face her next obstacle in life, the one she ran from six years ago: her ex husband. Talon Marcus is the president of the Hawks Motorcycle Club. For two years, he's had his eye on the quiet, reclusive, yet sassy, neighbour Zara. Finally, he has the chance to claim her as his woman. Just when her past catches up with her, she'll need, not only his protection, but the help from his biker brothers. Now, if only she'd stop fighting him along the way. PLEASE NOTE: This is book #1 in an MC series, it can be read as a standalone and it's more of a lighter read, being based on the hero finding his love interest than club business. Other books in the series: Climbing Out: #2 Finding Out (novella) #2.5 Black Out: #3 No Way Out: #4 Coming Out (novella) #4.5

Such a serious disappointment. I thought this would be a good series to get involved with but this book let me down. The premise of a woman with a young daughter running away from her husband and finding a new love in who could protector has me hooked. Where it went wrong was with the following 1. Insta-love. This book had the worst version of Insta-love known to book readers... There wasn't even a rhyme or reason begin their devotion. It was pure lust that escalate because they decided to bring family and friends into the mix. I mean you really don't know anything about the other person and you decide to take on their baggage 2. The writing and overuse of cursing. There is absolutely no purpose that the cursing served and it was poorly constructed. Bikers curse but come on. 3. The love scene or lack there of.... No need to discuss. 4. No character development or conclusion. All the hype build up for what? What happens to David? There isn't any face to face between talon and pick? How is violet and talons relationship before and after? Give us a build up of Deanna's life. The list could go on but I will step off my soapbox
