Hot, Australian, biker guys. What else do you need?

This book surprised me. I thought it would have a sub-par plot with lots of smut. Instead, it had a pretty detailed out, interesting storyline with some smut thrown in for fun. The plot was interesting and kept me in the story. I didn't like Deanna, the best friend, very much at first but she grew on me. And now that I know there's a book of Mattie and Julian's story, I'll definitely be reading that. The other side characters were fun and I wouldn't mind continuing the series to see what else the author planned.
Be warned, this is not your typical biker romance. There are certainly some gritty moments but I would file this book closer to the quirky end of the spectrun.

That being said, I loved it. Loved the here, adored the heroine, and even fell a bit in love with the supporting characters. The banter between Zara and Deanna is too funny and felt very similar to Tara Sivec's sence of humor ( Author of Seduction and Snacks)

I really enjoyed every moment of this book and would highly recomment it as long as you don't go into it expecting the type of gritty biker romance like the Undeniable series.
Liked Zara and Talon well enough, but didn't LOVE them. Hated the instalove, which I usually love. It's the main reason I read Aurora Rose Reynolds books. Because I know there will be instalove in them. Like give me the slightest reason for it and I'm like YAS I'm there! But here? Nah.

Zara had me absolutely cracking up at almost everything she said. I loved her! The writing in general though was not my favourite.

Super easy and fun read and while it wasn't boring, it wasn't especially interesting either, but I had a hard time putting it down.

Not the best MC romance I've read but meh. I will continue but no idea when.
It was free on Kindle.....I tried! I made it to 24% but just can't go any further. I just loved the book description but the writing not so much. I'm not even a book snob at all but this was all over the place.
If I could give this less than one star, I would. It was literally unreadable. As in, I couldn't tell what was happening because the writing was incomprehensibly awful.
