Resumen del Editor

Blossom -- My life is about as complicated as it can get. To fulfill his political aspirations, my stepfather has decided to sell me to a man who can take him to the governor’s seat. He’s always been abusive, demanding I be perfect in public, silent in private, and obey him in all things. After we moved to Evansville, Indiana, I spent months trying to find the perfect protector, looking for the biggest, bravest, meanest man I could find. Then I meet Walker from the motorcycle club, Iron Tzars. He’s everything I need, everything I want, and nothing I can handle. But he’s the one. And I’m determined for him to make me his.

Walker -- I’m emotionally unavailable, a mean bastard on the best of days. Serving my country as a Dog Handler for the Army, finding explosives meant to kill my fellow soldiers and innocent people, left me with emotional scars I never thought I’d get over. I lost my fiancée, my partner, and my ability to empathize with anything. Hell, I even refused to name the dog that took up with me and refused to leave, simply calling her Dog. Then this lost little waif worms her way into a compound full of hardasses who never allow outsiders. Of all the men in this club, the little fool sets her sights on me. Time to set her straight. Only, I might have gone too far. If Blossom doesn’t survive this, it’s on me. And I might have accidentally fallen for her.

WARNING: Graphic violence, adult situations, and references to human trafficking and domestic abuse that may be triggers for some listeners. Features a grumpy hero and a feisty heroine. Eventual happy ending and NO cheating, as always.

Great Addition

to the series, I really enjoyed these characters and love that they though it is along the insta love like the previous this one started off with a little more conflict and the MMC had to work a bit harder for it all. I also like that though they are short quick listens I'm never left wanting at the end it's a full complete story with great narration.

Excellent narration

Mewsings
I liked the Iron Tzars and their sense of family. I wasn’t as crazy about the way Walker treated Blossom.
The narrator was very good and was easy to understand.

Sparkle and Glitter

It's hard not to like Blossom 🌸 Evergreen (there's a story to go with her name). I don't agree with his tactics, so I love the dress down Walker gets after it's learned what he did to push her away. I also like that she makes him sufficiently grovel.

There are some terrible things that happen. I love how the Club, especially the eligible men, rallies to do what they can to make things right. Some are chuckle worthy and others are sweet even if off the mark. The dogs just add to the fun in more ways than one.

I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrator is Umi Markkanen and is always easy to listen to.

Walker and Blossom

Blossom grew up wealthy and privileged. She meets Walker at the MC, as she is friends with one of the wives. A disappearance, a missing puppy, and the MC learns about her abusive stepfather. Taking care of her while she heals wakes Walker up. I liked the story, but felt like a bit was missing. The story hints at the violence and retribution they will do, but it falls a little flat. Overall, it is a sweet story. The narration was well done. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Blossom and Walker

I was gifted an Audible version of this book from the author through Story Origin. This is my honest review.
Walker. With a history of violent military service, past heart breaks, he has become an unlikeable man, but a dependable, strong MCC member. Blossom. Is looking for protection from her abusive stepfather. She is just the sweetest character. Their story is amazing.

Umi Markkanen narrates their story with knowledge and feelings to match. Her male voice is even believable. 5 stars for her.
