From the national bestselling author of “wickedly naughty”(Romance Junkies) erotic romance comes the latest scorching Wild Riders novel.

He’s a biker working undercover for the Feds. She has reasons of her own for joining the Wild Riders. Together, they’re burning up the asphalt and tearing headlong into danger and passion…

The guys always thought of Jessie as their kid sister, except Diaz Delgado. The past few years he’s been watching her—and Jessie’s glad somebody is. Delgado’s dark good looks and killer body have tempted her since day one. Diaz’s unbrotherly urges have been hard to fight but the last thing he wants is to hurt Jessie. But when they both go undercover with killer survivalists, he knows it’ll be hard to keep his distance—especially when the mission takes a risky turn. Now Diaz has no choice but to open himself up to the one woman strong enough to take him on.

This was a pretty good read. I think I could have gone for the five stars but there was one major flaw in this book that just continues to get me riled up.

Its the hero you see. This was one of those heroes that thought he wasn't good enough for the girl (because we haven't seen that done enough times), that he would only end up hurting her because his fathers abusive past toward woman. It didn't matter that she constantly assured him that she wanted him, was willing to take a chance on him and believed in him. This guy was just trying to be too chivalrous and stubborn.

But at the same time couldn't keep his tackle out of her tackle box - if you get my drift.

I liked Jessie. She was tough and hot. She knew how to handle herself and didn't back down. She also was a little bit of an exhibitionist. HA! Who would have thought? Jessie has been busting her butt for years with the Wild Riders trying to show them what she is made off and finally get a chance when she is paired up with Diaz for a mission. Jessie has been attracted to Diaz for years! As the story goes, Diaz denies he has any feelings toward Jessie – but eventually succumbs to their sizzling passion and kinky sex – where talking go get a fan kind of hot and kinky sex.  But Jessie wants more from Diaz than just sex; she wants happily forever after....

I liked this story more than what I thought I would. Bar that one little indiscretion I already spoke off, it was a joy to read.  The book focused a lot on their relationship. You got to see the characters grow into themselves and their new feelings for one another. I loved how Jessie had such complete faith in Diaz and never doubted that, and to see Diaz learn to trust his feelings and himself. The actual story line its self is fast paced and smoothly written.

I will continue this series. Why wouldn’t I? It has great humour, kinky sex and great story lines. Everything I need to get me through the day.
