Publisher's summary

I'll screw any woman I want, even the enemy.  

As a sniper in the military, I shot on sight. But now, the only thing I have eyes for is Brooklyn, the new bartender at PJ's. Her curvy hips, those pouty lips; I want to touch every inch of her skin. I'll bend her over my bike and show her how a Bad Disciple really rides. 

But Brooklyn is hiding something - a secret that could rip us and the club apart. 

I killed her brother overseas. And now it haunts me in our streets.  

I’ll convince Brooklyn to stay with me. I never miss a target, and this time the bullseye is her heart.  

Gunner (The Bad Disciples MC) is a full-length stand-alone bad-boy motorcycle romance.

Annoying Characters

I started reading this book with high hopes because of the premise, but stopped before reaching the end. Brooklyn seems to always be "screaming" or shrieking and behaving stupidly like a little child, and Gunner acts out of character and stupidly abandoning her to sex traffickers. Terrible, irritating and dumb MC romance story. For a really good story, I suggest reading Preacher by Dahlia West or Reapers Property by Joanna Wylde or Under Locke by Mariana Zapata

Unrealistic

How many woman bar tenders would be closing solo. Plus not freak out if a stranger locks them in alone at closing. Oh, then just starts having sex on the bar within 15 minutes after meeting...written more like a bad porn.

Awesome book great narrators

I go thru 50 audio books a week and f8nally this kept my interest for the whole story. had my hot sex scenes and action. worth the credit!

Good

This was an entertaining read. Not great, but not mind blowing either. Some of the dialog was stilted and didn't flow well. But on a whole I enjoyed Brooklyn and Gunner's story. Narrators did a great job!

The heroine: Brooklyn - She is a bartender at a local bar and she is trying to get over the loss of her brother. Her father and now her brother are no longer alive and were members of the Dragon Knights MC so the Motorcycle Club looks out for Brooklyn and assumes she is part of the club though she really has no interest in the club.

The Hero: Gunner - a commander and sniper in the military in Afghanistan. Feels a lot of guilt when one of his men, Jensen, stepped on a land mine and was killed since he and Jensen were ribbing each other during shooting practice and he and Jensen made a bet when Jensen walked out and stepped on a mine. Now that he is home, he still has nightmares of the day Jensen died. Gunner is now a member of the Bad Disciples MC whom are rivals of the Dragon Knights.

The Story: Brooklyn often gets hit on while working at the bar, but she can’t remember the last time she was interested in a man. Viper from the Dragon Nights just won’t seem to get the hint, and though she was attracted to him, she had no interest in him that way, she saw him as more of an older brother since hers died. She new that as a little sister of the MC, she would one day be expected to be with one of the members, and she thinks Viper somehow called dibs on her.

After patching in to the Bad Disciples MC, which had been his father and brothers MC before they died, Gunner stops by a local dive bar and sees Brooklyn, whom he is immediately attracted to. Brooklyn likewise thinks Gunnar may have walked right off the cover of a Men’s Health magazine. She can’t remember the last man that affected her that way. Things happened fast between them from there.

When rumors of the Dragon Knights operating a sex trafficking ring abound, the Bad Disciples are determined to keep that type of business out of their town. That sets up the main conflict in the story. The chemistry between Gunner and Brooklyn was explosive from the first time they laid eyes on each other. The story moved very fast, but I liked it.

The book was told in both Gunner and Brooklyn’s points of view and via dual narration. The narrators were Joe Arden and Samantha Cook who both did a great job. Joe’s voice is manly and works well for the ex-military biker. Samantha has a soft clear voice that was perfect for Brooklyn.

Enjoyed this book

This is my first book by Savannah and it won't be my last...

I enjoyed this book and the characters.
I will be diving into this series to get all the guy's books in this MC.

Great first book!

I can’t remember how I stumbled across this author but I am glad I did! I loved that she provided enough drama and energy to keep it interesting without making the main characters have no spine, doing stupid stuff just to fill the story.

She also did a great job on selecting the narrators. Since I am almost exclusively audio and have been since 2009, I am a narrator snob and won’t hesitate to return a book or give a negative narration review when I hear single narrators that can’t actually sound both male and female, or are constantly forgetting which voice they should be speaking in and it makes it past the producer. Luckily the author went with dual narrators and both had voices that are easy to listen to and not too breathy. (See, told you I was a narration snob.). Snob or not, this audio book gets a high score from me because Savannah Rylan hit all my requirements with this one. Now I’m off to start on the next book in the series while silently praying she kept up the great work!

Horrible Narration

The narration was so emotionless, it didn't give the characters any personality. it could have been a great book but the way the characters spoke was unrealistic for a biker. Was hard to finish.

Could've been better...

I have to agree with other review in that this heroine was one of the worst -- not what you'd expect from Savannah Rylan. Loved the story, hero was well done but the whiny, spitfire at the wrong time, make a fool of yourself kind of immature woman that no man much less a tough biker dude would have any respect for let alone fall for -- well, you get my point. That seems to be the popular way to write the heroines in MC stories---(except in this one, "snarky" was left out) but it sure doesn't paint a pretty picture for women. Anyway, I'm still looking for a heroine in an MC series that I can respect. This could have been much better since the story itself was great, just fell short on the heroine.

Narrators were great--at least you have that going on in this series. Makes up for the occasional bad sentence structure and slightly immature dialog. Just IMHO.
