11/3/18 I thought a re-read would make me enjoy it more, but the only thing it did is piss me off more...too bad because the storyline isn't so bad...just certain characters that ruined the story for me :(

Just to make myself really clear...this review contains major spoilers. If you don't want to know, don't read it !!!!!!!!!


So about the book...I actually liked it, although parts of it really pissed me off!

Cole is a vice president for the Evil Dead MC. When visiting a friendly chapter MC, he comes face to face with Angel. Angel is cuffed, bruised and being dragged by an asshole MC brother from this other club. Cole may have a blackened heart, but it's not that black and he can't just walk away from this situation....from her. So he rescues her and they leave the club together. Angel has been beaten and raped, but he can't let her go, because her dad is a cop and can't risk her running to her dad and therefore fucking the club. So, he takes Angel home to his club. He feels really drawn to her and the feeling is quite mutual. He vows to avenge her if she keeps her mouth shut to daddy.

The first issue I had with this story was the fact that they jump into the sack within 24 hours. I am not a huge fan of insta-love and this book reeked of it, but that was not one of my issues. The problem was Angel giving up her body to Cole, within 24 hours of her rape.....I just didn't buy it. I can't believe a girl who just got beaten and raped, would act like that. Which leads me to my next issue. The condoms ...there was not one fucking condom in sight !! Lady...you just got raped ....and now you're fucking a biker dude without a condom ???? He asked her if she was on birth control and when she said no...he said he would just take care of it and pull out !!!!! Really pissed me off!

They spend a few days together, getting hot and heavy and falling more and more in love. Meanwhile, Cole makes good on his promises for revenge. The club president Mack is not a big fan of Angel and how close she and Cole are, so he fucks thing up for them. I hated that guy !! The worst of it all was, that he didn't even have to pay for his douchebaggery. I wanted him to pay for what he did, but it is mentioned only once and he doesn't even apologize to her in the end...asshole.

After Macks fucks things up, Angel leaves. Cole is upset but he doesn't have her last name and knows nothing about her, so he'll just have to accept that things between them are over.

Fast forward 3 years and Angel is in desperate need of Cole's help. She will have to go and pay him a visit. Cole is shocked when he sees her at the club. Shocked because she is there looking really good and shocked because of the intense feelings he still has for her. He decides to help her and travels to the house where Angel has been living with her aunt for the last 3 years. Again....within 24 hours they have sex...this woman is really an idiot. She has been on her own after he left her and the past three years have not been easy for her. Still, within a minute he is forgiven and she's on her back again. No condoms in sight this time either !!

Then we get to the part where she finds out he's married. Now the cheating....I had no issue with. I knew about it going in, so I was prepared for this to happen. Of course, I thought Cole was a dick. He should have told her before they had sex. I didn't feel sorry for his wife though, because she annoyed me and she was also a lying bitch. Still....since I'm already spoiling the hell out of this review, I figured some people may want to know that the hero is a cheat.

When Angel finds out about his marriage, she finally grows a backbone and tosses him out !! He goes home to file for divorce because ever since he saw Angel again at the club, he's wanted out of his marriage. Angel holds onto her anger however and Angel's aunt Natalie travels all the way to Cole, to see if she can help him out. First, she wants to know where he lives and see the club. She wants to make sure that her niece ends up somewhere safe and, since she will accompany Angel, she wants to know where she will end up. Guess who she fucks while she's visiting....Mack !! I just couldn't believe that shit. She gave it up to him within 12 hours after meeting him, knowing he was the reason Cole and Angel were apart for three years !! Sure, reward the asshole why don't ya. Well, at least we got to know where her loyalties lie. Who needs enemies, when you have family like that ??!! I think out of all the issues I had, Mack and his douchebaggery pissed me off the most and for her to jump into bed with him.....I just couldn't believe it !! Then, after doing this, she also forces a decision on Angel. I liked Angel's aunt Nathalie in the beginning....after all shit....I hated her guts !!

And Mack...he was just an old and pathetic little douchebag as far as I am concerned.

Funny thing is...even with all the issues I had, I still enjoyed reading this book. I mean Deuce pissed the hell out of me and I love Madeleine Sheehan's books. I'm gonna check out some more books in this series, hopefully, they have some better MC's.
