Synopsis: Sinning never felt so good… A fortuitous
encounter. A meeting that
should never have happened. Many years ago,
two children from completely different worlds forged a connection, a fateful
connection, an unbreakable bond that would change their lives forever…
Salome knows only
one way to live—under Prophet David’s rule. In the commune she calls home,
Salome knows nothing of life beyond her strict faith, nor of life beyond the
Fence—the fence that cages her, keeps her trapped in an endless cycle of
misery. A life she believes she is destined to always lead, until a horrific
event sets her free.
Fleeing the
absolute safety of all she has ever known, Salome is thrust into the world
outside, a frightening world full of uncertainty and sin; into the protective
arms of a person she believed she would never see again.
River ‘Styx’ Nash
knows one thing for certain in life—he was born and bred to wear a cut. Raised
in a turbulent world of sex, Harleys, and drugs, Styx, unexpectedly has the
heavy burden of the Hades Hangmen gavel thrust upon him, and all at the ripe
old age of twenty-six—much to his rivals’ delight.
Haunted by a
crushing speech impediment, Styx quickly learns to deal with his haters.
Powerful fists, an iron jaw and the skillful use of his treasured German blade
has earned him a fearsome reputation as a man not to be messed with in the
shadowy world of outlaw MC’s. A reputation that successfully keeps most people
far, far away.
Styx has one rule
in life—never let anyone get too close. It’s a plan that he has stuck to for
years, that is, until a young woman is found injured on his lot… a woman who
looks uncannily familiar, a woman who clearly does not belong in his world, yet
a woman he feels reluctant to let go…
Contains sexual
situations, violence, sensitive and taboo subjects, offensive language and
mature topics. Recommended for age 18 years and up*
My Review: I have
read several of this author’s books and they were great, well written and held
my attention. I held off on this one due
to the content. I am not a fan of
certain subjects and this one contained two.
However I love MC books and everyone else I talk with about books kept saying
this was a great book. So I finally
caved and picked it up. I wish I did not
wait! This was a great book with a
roller coaster of events. Captivating
from beginning to end, I am glad I gave It Ain't Me, Babe (Hades Hangmen Book 1) a shot!
