Publisher's summary

Aaron "don't ever call me Fatbaby" Sims is lucky to be alive. Or at least that is what everyone keeps telling him. He doesn't feel lucky, though.

He's scarred, has more than a little bit of a bad attitude, and there isn't a single day that goes by that he doesn't wish his wife would've just finished off the job.

After being denied his old position at the fire department, he leaves, and doesn't look back. He heads straight to Alabama and into the semi-welcoming arms of The Dixie Wardens MC. There he becomes a part of a brotherhood that forces him to get back in the land of the living.

Imogen is a smart girl. A girl who doesn't always make the best decisions.

Her heart is in the right place when she walks into that prison, but it doesn't take long for her to realize that her heart shouldn't have had any say so in the matter. Especially when one wrong move lands her in the arms of a scarred man that looks frightening enough to scare any sane woman away.

Immediately enthralled by the angry man, she tries to get closer to him. But the harder she tries to get to know him, the further he pushes her away.

The only thing Aaron wanted to do after his now ex-wife was sent to jail was escape. Escape the awful memories. The pity-filled eyes. The curious glances.

He does a damn fine job at ensuring he draws as little as attention as possible, but then that annoying woman with startling blue eyes starts hammering away at his resolve. Makes him feel when he doesn't want to feel.

Imogen comes into his life and carves out a place for herself, obliterating his defenses one heated kiss at a time.

Contains mature themes.

Different kind of MC

This audiobook was certainly not about 1%ers or criminal like MCs. The hero is a former Marine who suffered terrible burns after returning to the US when his crazy wife hit him with her car when he was driving his truck. Disillusioned by women and his felling rejected because of his appearance, he moves back to his mothers house and joins the local MC club. While getting a classic car restored he meets the woman he just saw at the jail after she was injured by her brother-in-law who is a prisoner and gave first aid to her. They start to see each other and his heart begins to open again. The story was entertaining and narration was well done.

Part of the book feels missing

There was a part in the book where it felt like she had a plot then changed her mind but didn't what she had before

Freaking Brillent

I've read all of Lani's books & now I'm collecting the Audio books , Bead Mode had me crying all over again at the sad sad spot with Stone , big tears falling ....... But that doesn't deture from the great story just adds to it ... Aaron & Imagon what a way to finally get together , it's one of my favs in this Series .. I hope every single book she's written goes on Audio .. .. One that should not be missed .. One Click , you won't be Dissappointed .

Great to listen too

Great book to listen too from page one to the last page. Imogen was smart and watching her sister's son while she was in the Marines and the father was in jail. Aaron was trying to put his life back together after his ex-wife tried to kill him.

choppy

I liked the story, but it skipped around on certain parts. That surprised me because all of the prior 34 books of Lani Lynn Vale's I've read weren't so confusing. One minute, she's unconscious in the hospital, and the next, she's getting a gun to shoot someone! There were other sections, but I'd rather not give away the story.

Of all the LLV stories I’ve listened to…

This was choppy. Several times I had to check to make sure I didn’t miss something. She wasn’t awake, but then was shooting someone. He was in surgery then he was stopping her? There were a few other times, too. Just choppy.

I am totally hooked on this author now

I loved every minute of this book. There were some sad parts, but the story itself was awesome. There's just something about the female character that I love. There's nothing complicated about her, and her guy is the same. They rock together.

A great story

Another wonderful story from Lani and an great performance from both narrators
I have given this 5 stars but towards the end of the story I have to admit that there could of been a bit more written in between the time she was found and the time she had the gun. it didnt flow as good it's like a bit was skipped.. but apart from that it was great
