Publisher's summary

Face of an angel. Mind in the gutter.

Mike. Macho Biker. Scarred. Will never love again.

Arden. Femme boy. Jaded. Will never succumb to lust again.

Mike is always on the lookout for a fresh fling, and there are more than enough chicks for a stud like him at the Smoke Valley MC clubhouse. But the pretty little thing he spots at the gas station turns out to be a boy, and that triggers all sorts of confusion.

Mike loves a challenge, so when he’s given the cold shoulder, his predator senses are set aflame! Straight or not, Mike makes a bet with his cousin and won’t settle for anything other than a total seduction of Arden.

Arden has bigger fish to fry than some biker’s petty insecurities. His last relationship has left him jaded and hurt, so he will never again succumb to the charms of a bad boy. Especially since Mike isn’t just hot, he’s freaking irresistible. Older, dangerous, and cocky, Mike will be Arden’s downfall if he isn’t careful.

But when a monster from Arden’s past reaches out his claws, the only deterrent Arden can think of is claiming Mike is his new boyfriend. So now, he’s stuck in a fake relationship with a straight guy.

For Mike, what starts as a game turns out to be an awakening he’d never expected. The ice prince in lace is actually hot as hellfire, with a gutter mind to match Mike’s, and all of a sudden, his scarred heart is not as safe as he’d thought it was.

A scorching-hot, stand-alone M/M romantic suspense novel.

Warning: This story contains scenes of violence, mentions of past abuse, offensive language, and morally ambiguous characters.

Messed up my bedtime routine and caused me to neglect important responsibilities

This was so good, I listened through my bedtime. When I woke up the next day, I kept going with this book and neglected other things I needed to do because I could not get myself away from this story. Make sure you don’t start this when you have important things to do or you will be sorry.

Fabulous!!

I loved this audiobook!! Arden and Mike seem so mismatched but they work hard to make it together. The biker club does cause issues at the beginning but I feel that this is normal. The writing and narrator are both awesome!!

Strong.

This was a pretty fair story, I enjoyed a lot of aspects of it and there were a lot of creative playing with the idea of gender and sexuality which I thought was handled pretty well. I wasn't a huge fan of the climax though... I mean there were two very legitimate antagonists here and I think the climactic ending would have been better served with the one that took all of fifteen minutes to get through. That sex scene was real good though...

The narration performance was very very good I've found that I actually REALLY enjoy Wyatt Baker as a narrator and will certainly be on the look out for more of his work.

Another Good MC Story

I’ve enjoyed all of KA Merrikan’s MC stories and this is another good one. This time free wheeling Mike finds himself interested in someone for more than just a quick f*c*.
Arden is a unique young man, delicately built and completely femme in dress and makeup. Mike is confused because he’s only ever been interested in women and he’s extremely attracted to Arden.

Bad boy meets his match

Ahhh I love when the bad boy/play boy meets his match in a sweet and sassy boy. Especially when it’s a new awakening in the bad boy. I love love love Arden. I love that he’s so comfortable in his own skin and loves his life of lace and more feminine things. Mike is such a good guy hiding in the desire to not fall for anyone but he can’t help his desires and feeling with Arden. This is such a fun read and even better listen.

Another fun ride with the Smoke Valley MC

This was an interesting sexual awakening story. It was fun to see a character accept an new attraction without having a major crisis about and just accepting that he cares about another guy without it fundamentally changing who he is. The idea that sexuality doesn't have to be rigid or static came across clearly. Interesting characters, hot sex and, it was fun to see previous couples in this one.

Really Enjoyable

I thought Wyatt Baker did a great job. Each character had distinctive voices.

The story was entertaining. I wasn’t sure I was going to like Mike at first, because he was so full of himself, but he grew on me really quickly. Arden was unique and not Mikes usual type… until he was. There are sexy times, action, and even a few emotional moments. I really liked this story.

Mike and Arden

Gutter Mind: Smoke Valley MC is book 12 in the Sex & Mayhem series. This is a hot age gap story with self discovery and self acceptance. Mike is an older biker and Arden, nearly 19 and hiding out from a bad relationship, find themselves in a fake relationship. Even though Mike is straight he can't stop thinking about Arden and how to make the femme boy really his, but that is all kinds of complicated. I love how up front Arden is. He's been through a lot and isn't afraid to be wary. Mike is always trying to justify his reasonings for liking Arden, even though he's male. There's a lot of inner conflict going on in Mike's head. I enjoyed Mike and Arden together and think they really helped each other. I love this series and recommend this book.
Narrator Wyatt Baker does a fabulous job. He is definitely one of my favorite narrators.
