Uncontrollable Temptations
Release Date: February 9, 2016
Synopsis
Jack “Bulldog” Parrish
Crazy: Mentally deranged, especially as manifested in a wild or aggressive way. I was thirteen when I discovered the definition of the word I’d forever be labeled. Some used it as a figure of speech but for me it was a scar I’d carry through life. Or so I believed until I was diagnosed a manic depressive.I’m the president of the Satan’s Knights Motorcycle Club, a man of power and control. A man with enemies near and far. But the truth, my truth, is my biggest enemy— my mind and I live most of my life with no control whatsoever. I’m just a man who battles his demons, a man destined to live a life full of darkness. Until her. She’s the light beckoning me, calling me home, away from the torment. In a world as dark as the one I live in, sometimes I can’t help but crave Sunshine.
Reina DeCarlo
I was lost, broken and a prisoner of my scars. A shell of the woman I used to be, who didn’t know the difference between living and merely existing. Until a stranger found me, fixed and freed me. He breathed life into my soul, reminding me I was a survivor and still had life to live. My savior is a biker. A man tortured by his own scars. A man broken like me, maybe even a little lost too. I want to be his remedy. I want to heal him. I want to return the favor and be his savior. This is our story, a story neither of us knew how to write until we found each other.

What I Loved
I really loved the prologue because it
sucked me in and my heart instantly broke for Jack and all he had lost. I had tears in my eyes about 2 minutes into
the book and I love stories that can make me emotional. The fact that this story did that to me
almost immediately was pretty impressive.
Jack’s loss was so acute and on the surface I fell for him instantly and
wanted him to find some sort of happy ending.
I was delighted to see he found some sort of sunshine the minute he laid
eyes on Reina but I knew it was going to be a pretty rough road to achieve that.
Reina’s character was a woman I could
get behind because she was so real and gritty which made me become more
emotionally involved in the story even more then I already was. Her pain might’ve been a little bit more
hidden than Jack’s but it was there none the less and it gripped my heart just
the same.
There was a lot going on in this book and
a lot of times where my eyes were bugging out of my head or my jaw was on the
floor. No MC romance would be complete
without a bad guy, tons of action, and some pretty close calls; this book was
filled with that. But of course amongst
all this craziness swirling around Jack, his passion for Reina poured off the
pages and definitely sizzled whenever the two of them were alone together. It was great to watch Jack and Reina fall in
love with each other but also heart breaking at times as well. Definitely a story that sucked me in and kept
my attention to the very end.
Not So Much
I know this is a series but each story
features a new story and a new couple so I felt comfortable with this being the
first book I read in the series. However, it all felt a little unorganized,
especially in the beginning.
There was a lot going on and although some of it was explained, the
transitions from plot to plot was unorganized and that made it hard to keep
track of what was going on. The plot
began with Jack’s loss then bounced to the backstory of his brother for
example, without a lot of explanation. Making
me very confused and disorientated with the plot. For me, it made the foundation a little weak
at times so I wish there were better transitions to fill in the holes more.
I get that if I read the other books in this series I probably
would’ve understood it more, but for the people that won’t do that there should
have been maybe a couple paragraphs covering things better. There are a ton of characters in this book
and I’m sure there will be continue to be a lot throughout the series, so more
organization would’ve served the plot better.

Synopsis
Anthony Bianci
Since I was a kid all I ever wanted to be was a gangster. I wanted to be feared, to be respected, and for everyone to know my name.
And then she came into my life.
And then she came into my life.
I never planned on falling in love with the mob boss’ daughter. She was forbidden but somehow she became mine. She made me crave things I didn’t even know existed and made me forget about the things I thought I wanted. My quest for power faded away and was replaced by my undying love for her.
Until reality bit me in the ass and I was sent to prison for three years, doing time for a crime I didn’t commit.
Now I’m out and she is creating a life for herself, just like I always wanted for her. Only I’m not a part of that life. I won’t ruin her any more than I already have with my poisonous lifestyle.

Synopsis
Michael Valente...
My father was the Underboss of an organized crime family. He was murdered when I was a teenager leaving me broken. My mother died in a tragic accident, her death annihilated me. My life was in shambles until Victor Pastore, one of New York’s most notorious gangsters and my late father’s best friend, recruited me to work for him.
Everyone expected me to walk in my father’s shadow, to be the prodigal son, the next big thing to hit the mob. I was torn between filling those expectations and walking the straight line my mother wished I had. Nothing made sense and I felt as if I was just passing through life.
The only beacon of light in my otherwise dark world was the one girl that was off limits to me. The one girl who could bring me to my knees consuming my mind, body and soul.
She’s the sweetest temptation I’ve ever known and the most illicit.
Nikki Pastore....
My father’s a gangster. My boyfriend’s is the king of New York’s nightclubs. I am often labeled as Vic’s daughter or Rico’s girl, never just Nikki. I struggle for people to acknowledge me for the woman I am and not for the men in my life. I’m fighting a losing battle.
There is only one person who sees me for me, my Mikey.
He’s wild.
He’s reckless.
He’s hot as hell.
He’s completely unattainable, but oh so tempting.
He’s completely unattainable, but oh so tempting.
