I think this book shows a lot of promise. If the author decides to continue with the characters, I’m there because what this book promises is a good new series.

Bambi is awesome. She looks like a goth girl, but there’s a lot more to her than looks. It’s not all Red Bull and Cheetos, though. The bane of her life is the sexism inherent in the motorcycle club: because she’s female, she can’t be a member. Which is frustrating because she is tougher and more intelligent than several of the members, or at least more than Roman, whose competence is as questionable as his sobriety. (He makes a great character, by the way). I know that Dash is the main character, but I feel like Bambi stands out equally, if not more. She is a club princess, and I love stories about club princesses. Bambi serves to call out sexism. I don’t think she’d necessarily make a good MC president, as I don’t know that she has the temperament. But she would make a great club member. And that’s the tragedy of the book.

Dash is the MMC of the book, and he has a gift for finding trouble. He wants to be a part of the MC as the story begins, because his dad belonged, and he also wants redress for what happened to his dad. We learn more about that, and about Dash, as the story continues. Suffice it to say, he’s hot and he’s complicated, which is catnip to Bambi.

There is humor in the story as well. I laughed, loudly when Dash took Knox’s grandmother her medication. The whole situation was droll, especially when she kept confusing him for Knox, right up until she didn’t. That dog is an evil little creature, but the whole thing was very funny.
