The smallest spark can start an inferno!
Gage and Tinker’s
story is FINALLY here!
Reaper’s Fire NOW AVAILABLE!
Blurb
New York Times
bestselling author Joanna Wylde returns to the “wild and raw”* world of the
Reapers MC with the story of Gage and Tinker…
The club comes first.
I’ve lived by those words my whole life—assumed I’d die by
them, too, and I never had a problem with that. My Reaper brothers took my back
and I took theirs and it was enough. Then I met her. Tinker Garrett. She’s
beautiful, she’s loyal, and she works so damned hard it scares me sometimes . .
. She deserves a good man—one better than me. I can’t take her yet because the
club still needs me. There’s another woman, another job, another fight just
ahead.
Now she’ll learn I’ve been lying to her all along. None of
it’s real. Not my name, not my job, not even the clothes I wear. She thinks I’m
nice. She pretends we’re just friends, that I’ve still got a soul . . . Mine’s
been dead for years. Now I’m on fire for this woman, and a man can only burn
for so long before he destroys everything around him.
I’m coming for you, Tinker.
Soon.
Excerpt
“I can’t believe how late it is,” Tinker said, yawning,
and I realized the movie had ended. Now she stretched upward, the blanket
falling to her waist as her boobs pushed forward.
God, how much should a man be expected to take?
I should’ve stayed away from her completely—that’d been
the plan—but something had snapped when I’d seen her out in the courtyard.
Couldn’t remember the last time I’d met a woman like Tinker. She was smart and
sexy and funny, and she worked damned hard to take care of her family and
business. Sure, I wanted to fuck her—you’d have to be gay not to—but I
respected her, too.
“I should probably get going,” she said, offering me a
smile so sweet I wanted to bite her lips. “I like to check on Dad before going
to sleep, and I’ve got to be up early in the morning. I’ve got to package
orders for the courier tomorrow—if they aren’t ready by two p.m., I’m screwed.”
I considered rolling over on top of her. Pushing her down
into the couch cushions, shoving my leg between hers, and showing her what a
real man feels like.
“Cooper?” she asked, looking confused. I blinked a couple
times, forcing myself to focus on her face.
“I’m going to watch another one,” I told her, because I’m
a goddamn masochist. “You sure you’re ready to head out?”
She frowned, and I could almost read her thoughts. Yes,
she should leave. But she wanted me as much as I wanted her. And yeah, I
realize that makes me sound like an egotistical ass, but this wasn’t my first
rodeo. I saw the lust in her eyes, and the way she licked her lips and stared
at my mouth. This wasn’t a one-way street, not even close.
“I guess I could stay a little longer,” she whispered.
Christ, she was so sweet and soft. I wanted to bite her even more now. Suck
that pouty lower lip into my mouth and shove a finger up her ass.
Break her.
You’re one sick fuck.
Why yes. Yes, I am. Thanks for
noticing.
I managed to control the urge, catching her hand instead,
giving it a friendly squeeze like some kind of pathetic tool. Her fingers
tightened on mine, then she pulled away and snuggled back down under the
blanket, raising her feet to rest on the coffee table. I grabbed the remote and
clicked through the menu.
Tomorrow I’d do my job. I’d fuck Talia and spy on Marsh
and look for any kind of weakness that might end this situation, the faster the
better. Tonight, though . . . Tonight I’d pretend this wasn’t a waste of time.
Goddamn, but my dick hurt.
The next
hour was torture.
Tinker sat next to me, all cute and classy and absolutely
refusing to make any kind of eye contact. I don’t know how she felt, but to me
the sexual tension hanging in the air was thick and heavy. I kept thinking
about her hand in mine—small, but strong. The hand of someone who knew how to
work hard. So far as I knew, Talia had never held down a job, let alone
supported herself.
The couch shifted, and I glanced over to find Tinker
sliding deeper into the cushions, drawing the blanket up to her chin. Our legs
were maybe six inches apart. She shifted again, and then her hand bumped mine
under the blanket. She jerked it back quickly, and I caught the hint of a flush
on her cheeks. That was another thing I liked about her—her skin was so pale that
I could see every hint of arousal.
Grabbing her hand, I pulled it over to rest on my thigh.
This was a really bad idea, so I pointedly refused to think it through. Her
hand tensed at first, then relaxed into my strength. My cock swelled against
the fabric of my jeans, just inches from her fingers—it’d be so easy to push
her hand toward it, wrap it around my painfully swollen dick, and just go to
town.
Tinker’s fingers gave a quick squeeze—almost more of a
spasm—and I bit back a groan.
Yeah, okay. Really, really
bad idea. I should get off the couch and shut this shit down right now, because
I couldn’t afford to blow things with Talia just yet. Instead I found myself
leaning toward Tinker, bumping shoulders.
God.
I’d grown a pussy. No other explanation, because I
couldn’t figure out why the hell else an adult man would sit holding hands
under a damned blanket like a kid.
Dirty Book Girls Reviews:
Amy- 4 Stars:
I always enjoy escaping to the lands of the Reapers MC, and this journey was no different. We're used to spending a lot of time in and around the clubhouse, but that doesn't happen here, and it was refreshing.
Gage has gone undercover for the Reapers as "Cooper", posing as a recently divorced man. He's trying to infiltrate a local support MC, and they've been receiving some reports of sketchy activity. He's forced to use whatever he can to get into the club's good graces, which means Talia. Talia is a piece of work; she thrives on confrontation and jealousy.
Gage has found work as a handyman with Tinker Garrett, who has returned to her hometown to take care of her father, and to try to move forward after ending her marriage. Gage is like many of the other Reapers we've read about......he just knows Tinker is the one for him, but can't act on it while he's undercover. He builds a quasi-friendship with Tinker, but the attraction on both their parts is evident.
I liked that Ms. Wylde used relevant history, specifically the wildfires that devastated the West Coast in recent years. It lends an air of authenticity to the story line, and also provides some hair-raising moments for the characters. Somehow, I don't think we've seen the last of Talia....she seems like a thorn that will continue to poke and prod until she's completely broken off. That being said, I can't wait to see how the Reapers story continues forward.

This installment in the Reaper’s series deals with the club and their enemies, like the other books, but it also has a lot of natural disaster. Gage has left Coeur d'Alene to check on a support club because the Reapers have heard some bad things and need to be sure. While there he meats Tinker under the most unusual circumstances and falls for her, but he has a few big issues in the way of a relationship with her.
I enjoyed sitting in during the Reapers meetings, witnessing the politics of the club and seeing how a patch over works. The inner workings of the MC are interesting to me. I also liked how the author worked in the fires. I’ve never dealt with wild fires so this story kind of brought home how serious they are. I think anyone who likes this series will like this book, but it does have a different feel from some of the others. I enjoyed that difference.
