Zach…
 
I like my sex dirty and disposable. I’m not into commitment or chicks who want more than one night. My brothers and club come first, second and last.
 
Until she walks into my life. Classy, rich and so out of my league it’s crazy. A week together should get her out of my
system, but this good girl is so bad when we’re all alone and I can’t get enough of her.
I don’t do forever, but she’s hooked me so bad I don’t ever want to let her go. Except there’s no way a princess can live in my world and I sure as hell won’t live in hers…

The shower’s great, though—triple-size with glass doors and low-level tiled seating along one side. Whoever designed this bathroom sure must like their showers. I find a towel in the cupboard under the sink, turn on the faucets, and peel off my clothes.

I don’t think the dress is salvageable, but considering the reason why it’s ruined I’ve no complaints. I’m still smiling as I step under the water.

The glass is steamed up and I’m half rinsed off when I see a dark shadow leaning against the door to the bedroom. My heart slams against my ribs, even though I know it’s Zach, and I rub a circle clear on the glass.

He toasts me with a bottle of whiskey before taking a long swallow. He’s naked except for a pair of boxer briefs, and even through the steam I can see the tattoos on his thighs and pecs.

How long was he standing there watching me? I’m kind of shocked that I don’t care he was perving on me, but if I’d known I would’ve made some sexy moves, like in the movies, instead of just wanting to wash away the lingering stench of that pool table.

Before I can finish off and join him, he places the whiskey beside the sink and steps out of his briefs. My peephole instantly steams up, obscuring the view, but it doesn’t matter, since he opens the door and enters the shower.

 

Missy‘s review

4 of 5 Stars


This is my first book by this author. I was intrigued by the cover and the MC name, Viking Bastards. Then I read the blurb, and I was all in.

Grace and Zach. She’s the good girl who walks into a bar and ends up having sex with a rough biker. Umm..so it moved a bit fast. It did. Instant chemistry. I accept it’s fiction. You should too.

My likes. The smexy scenes were steamy. I expected a rougher book because he’s a biker, but the story was really a love story peppered with a bit of biker in the background. No deep dive into the MC. Zach encouraged her to live her dreams. Grace gave him something sweet and he fell. Hard. They work despite their differences or maybe because of them.

Minor dislike. I spent a little too much time in their heads. The story felt a little fed to me at times but not enough to make much of an impact.

If you go in knowing it’s a lighter read, versus dark and angsty, it will make for a better reading experience. My expectations were different but I adjusted and enjoyed the story. For those who have not tried an MC book, this is a good one to start with. It’s an easy, sweet read…except for the end. He acts like a jerk. Grace makes him work for that HEA.

Christina is addicted to good coffee, expensive chocolate and bad boy heroes. She writes on the sizzling side of naughty, and loves bringing her tough biker heroes to their knees (her heroines enjoy this, too ☺).
Christina is also owned by three gorgeous cats who are convinced the universe revolves around their needs. They are not wrong.
