Publisher's summary

Cross: I'm the guy whose name brings fear into the hearts of even the hardest men. They call me Cross because I've killed enough men to fill a cemetery, and I never saw any problem with that. Until a woman I hardly remember brought my 11-year-old daughter that I didn't know existed to my doorstep and left her for me to take care of.

At first, my daughter was a complication I didn't need, but now I'll do everything I can to raise her right. I'll even stay away from her hot-as-sin guidance counselor Roxanne, who makes me feel like I'm 20 again, and not pushing 40. Which isn't to say I wouldn't show her what a real man can do with a woman like her.

Roxie: My father was the president of an outlaw MC, and until I turned 21, a world of bikers, mayhem, and crime was all I knew. Then a rival gang destroyed it all, killed my family and everyone I held dear, and made me the property of a brutal, ruthless man. I ran away, got an education, and haven't looked back.

Now I'm the guidance counselor at a small-town junior high school, my old life so far behind me it might as well be someone else's past, and I was happy to leave it there. But then I met Cross, the bad-boy biker father of one of my wayward students. He makes me yearn for the life I lost, crave all the excitement that used to be my everyday. Makes me want to be a bad girl again, if only for one night. But I won't go down that road again. It doesn't lead anywhere good.

Contains mature themes.

Not my style

Not enough Aiden! Too much of the FMC who had no pitch. And I’m all for metaphors but when every s@x scene included bursting into flames or raging rivers, it became rather frustrating.

Cross my heart!!

This book was very entertaining. The author was new to me and glad I gave it a shot. I knew both narrators and wasn't disappointed.
Not a lot of angst but the story was good and lots of naughtiness and a good listen.
Cross is the president of a biker family who is all male and alpha and has a preteen daughter he unexpectedly has to care for. His temperamental daughter sets the stage for meeting Roxie.
Aiden Snow sounded really good as Cross.
Roxie is the daughter of another biker family who survived a family tragedy and the story is about what takes place 6 years after her tragedy. This is when she meets Cross and the heat is on.
It's a fast listen and the story doesn't drag on. If there's a book 2 in the series I would listen. Go Cross with your badself!

Cross & Roxie

Written well, with strong characters, a heartbreaking but beautiful journey to take with Cross and Roxie. Not to mention the super- hot & romantic. I loved moments they shared. Their chemistry was Amazing. It was a fast paced book, the story was short but well worth it.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! After listening to this story,. I totally enjoyed reading this book. It’s well written and the characters were uniquely fantastic. I would suggest this book to my friends that like this sort of genera. this was a good book. The narrator was great.

One of my go to tropes

This book had me on edge for most of the story and I wasn’t disappointed. I thought it was going somewhere plenty of times but then surprised me repeatedly!!!!

great book and narrators

definitely worth the credit, action and steamy sex scenes... love me a good alpha! will b buying the next book in series. narrators did great job too!

Typical MC Book

This is your typical MC book. It has all the things MC like 1%, motorcycles, club, business, illegal activity, and alpha males. I can’t recall anything that was outstanding, and stood out to me, but the book was still keeping my interest.

Good Story But...

This female narrator's voice is so annoying.

The male/female characters spend more time thinking about sex than they do the child.

Best ever MC Romance Writer!!

Lena Bourne is the best MC Romance writer!! She is insightful about human emotions and understands about the works we create when the world for most is not a good fit…

A very good read

Just the right amount of suspense and intrigue with some steamy romance. The other characters are set up so I am looking forward to book 2
