“THUG” Review by “The World Was Hers for the Reading”-

All Gray Forrester wanted was to run a successful biker bar and have a family of her own one day. While she had the bar and it was doing okay, everything changed the day the president of a rival club walked through her doors.

Price McNealy, outlaw and president of the Hard Eights doesn’t trust many people. After he runs a rival club out of town, Price decides that Gray holds more than a little interest for him, which is rare when it comes to women and decides to have his club patronize her bar. What happens from that point on is nothing short of spectacular.

Don’t judge this book by the blurb. Heck ya, it is hotter than hot, but there is so much more. It’s not all about sex, but the forming of a loving relationship between two people that have no reason to trust one another. It’s watching a club of hardened outlaws come to care for a woman as their sister. And, it’s learning to not judge an outlaw by what laws he breaks, but why he breaks them.

The cast of characters is fabulous and unexpected. I can’t wait for Panzer and Briscoe to get their own books (pretty please, Scott?) And, Cactus Jack was as spectacular as he was surprising and added so much to Price’s story and background.

With an off the charts heat level, humorous banter, a kidnapping, some revenge and a bar full of outlaw bikers, Thug was one of my favorite Scott Hildreth books to date and I cannot wait for more in the Hard Eights series!

Blurb:

Price McNealy was a modern-day outlaw. He thumbed his nose at society’s rules, regulations, and laws, not caring what anyone thought of him, or the actions he somehow justified.

If I made a list of why “not” to be with a man, he’d check all the boxes.

He was also confident, trustworthy, and loyal. When he wanted to make a point, he did so with a brash elegance that I wouldn’t expect to come from a self-proclaimed thug.

In short, Price McNealy was trouble.

Big trouble.

I had every reason in the world to refuse him service when he sauntered into my bar.

For a fleeting moment, I thought about it. The next thing I knew, I was bent over with my pants around my ankles.

My bar was packed at the time, but I simply couldn’t say no to him. When it came to denying Price’s desires, I was in trouble.

Big trouble.

NOTE: THUG is a stand-alone romance. It has no sex outside the relationship, no cheating, and no sexual triggers. It ends with an HEA, and is a romance novel in every sense. It does, however, include a sex scene (or two) in a public places. These scenes are consensual, tastefully depicted and steamy as hell. If these types of sexual situations are beyond your romance reading realm, read the free portion and see if this book is for you before purchase.

The hero in THUG is the president of an outlaw motorcycle club. The book loosely depicts the life of a motorcycle club but does not include non-consensual sex, club whores, sex outside the relationship, cheating, or lying.
