Publisher's summary

Gwen Alexandra does not need a man in her life. Especially not a man who looks like Chris Hemsworth and Joe Manganiello's love child. One wearing leather, riding a Harley, and covered in tattoos.

Gwen can bet every pair of her Manolos that Cade Fletcher is trouble. From the moment she meets him, the attraction sizzles between them. Gwen has a problem when it comes to attractive men in motorcycle clubs. The last one she got involved with almost killed her.

After healing physically, Gwen decides to get a new start in a small town, half a country away from the man who nearly cost her her life. She isn't in town five minutes when she runs into Cade, a man who is too sexy and dangerous for his own good.

She tries to keep away from him, to ignore the attraction between them. But the biker has other ideas; soon she is in way over her head, and her heart and her life are in danger once again.

Contains mature themes.

Enjoyed it

Making The Cut is the first book in the Sons of Templar MC series. The story held my interest until the end. It was raw and graphic , sweet and hilarious and even emotional at times and I could not put it down. I liked the characters. Both Gwen and Cade had that chemistry from the start inspite of Gwen's misgivings. This novel had drama, suspense action, romance and a cast of secondary characters that greatly added to the story. I enjoyed it and would recommend it to all lovers of MC romance.
The audiobook version was narrated by Emma Wilder. She had great pace and timing and a pleasant voice. I enjoyed listening to her narrate this novel.

Amazingly beautiful

Well done. Could not get enough of this wonderful audio book. The characters where fantastic, all of them. The story grabbed you and I could put it down. I loved every second of this biker romantic story. You have to read it. I just hope the rest in this series will be just as amazing. The narrator Emma was fantastic.

Making The Cut



So much angst and drama! I was blown away reading this one. I wasn’t quite expecting so much in one book. There is so much from the very start. Loved all the characters, and can’t wait to read all their stories!

Great start to this MC series!

Gwen Alexandra, New Zealand native but NYC transplant, has recently relocated to Amber, CA. She has barely survived a brutal beating by her ex-bf, who was a member of an MC, and needs a fresh start. On her first day at her new house she runs into...yep, a biker. Although a bit skittish, Gwen is drawn to the broody biker, Cade, and soon gives in to the attraction. Of course it's not all smooth sailing since we have a bit of MC rival club drama, club sweet butt drama, and Gwen going hot and cold. That said, the story line was great and the supporting characters are very likeable. There is an HEA and a little hint of what's to come in the next book.

Loved this book so much!

Audiobook review

I read this book a few years ago and loved it so I was really excited to see it available on Audible Escape. I thought Emma Wilder did a wonderful job narrating this book, I loved her New Zealand accent!

This author is one of my favorites out there right now and I’ve loved the Sons of Templar MC series so it was really fun to go back to the beginning again, especially re-visiting some of the secondary characters before their own HEA.

Now having read almost all of Anne Malcom’s books, there is always going to be angst and characters being put through the wringer. Gwen’s story definitely has that. The things that Gwen went through was brutal and unimaginable but to see her ability to move on was awesome. She had such a great support system. Cade was the ultimate bad boy alpha, from the very first sight of Gwen, he knew he needed her in his bed. As hard as Gwen tried to stay away from another biker, Cade was relentless with his pursuit. Chemistry between these two were intense and off the charts. And even after they were finally together, so much heartbreak was to come, including with some of the secondary characters (that was gut-wrenching!)

I loved Gwen and Cade so much, they definitely had their ups and downs, but the love for each other was so strong we knew they could get through anything.
