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.

Review - 4 Stars

Joanna Wylde has done it again with her latest Reapers Motorcycle Club novel, Reaper’s Fire. It is everything that we have come to expect with the series. We finally get the backstory to Gage and Tinker which had been lightly talked about in Painter’s book, Reaper’s Fall. I am a huge fan of multi book series, and this is one of my favorites.

Gage has to go undercover as “Cooper” for the club in order to gain access to another club that has been screwing them over. The easiest way is to become the part time handy man to a shop owner in town, Tinker. He was immediately attracted to her, but he didn’t think that he would actually fall for her. It makes it more difficult with him lying about who he is and cozying up to the skank sister of the chapter president to get information. Gage is a strong individual, who for the first time is tempted to move passed his manwhoring days and have a relationship.

Tinker is just as strong, if not stronger than Gage. She has survived a tragedy and divorce (from a piece of shit btw) and is in a kind of limbo. She is currently helping her absent minded father out at the family owned apartment complex when she hires Gage as a part time handy man. He is incredible looking, but she is immediately turned off by his relationship with the town druggie/skank, in addition to her being his boss.

Gage wears her down, but when she discovers his true identity all bets are off. When a forest fire threatens the town, emotions are high and danger ensues. Decisions have to be made and actions taken to ensure everyone’s safety. Will Gage win over Tinker? Will she be able to move passed all the lies and misconceptions? Or will they both miss out on a good thing to avoid being burned?

This was a wonderfully hot read, and not just because of the title. We get visits from characters in previous books, and they are just as real and awesomely vulgar as before. Gage and Tinker have a real, hot connection that once explored, burns brightly. Tinker had hesitations and with her history rightly so. Gage has never had any kind of serious relationship so all of this is new to him and he has to learn Tinker, while pretending to be someone else.

Joanna Wylde excels at writing not only swoon worthy characters, but those also that we love to hate. Tinker’s ex-husband and the skank sister Talia where both characters that I LOVED to hate. Not only that, but the level of detail that Ms. Wylde puts in her books is exceptional. I can picture everything that happens with detail because of her writing talent.

Reaper’s Fire is a great addition to an already fantastic series. I highly recommend reading everything you possibly can of hers.

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.
