Get ready to ride....

Tyra Masters has had enough drama to last a lifetime. Now, she's back on track and looking forward to her new, quiet life. Until she meets the man of her dreams. The tattooed, muscled biker plies her with tequila—and the best sex of her life. She knows it isn't the tequila and hot sex talking. He's the kind of man she's always wanted. Unfortunately, he's also her new boss....

Kane "Tack" Allen has a rule. He doesn't employ someone he's slept with. So when he learns he spent last night in bed with his new office manager, he quickly fires Tyra. Yet when Tyra stands up to him and fights for her job, Tack is intrigued. He tells her she can keep her job on one condition: no more sex. Ever. But as things heat up between them, Tack finds that he'll be the one breaking all the rules...

Critic reviews

"I felt all of the rushes, the adrenaline surges, the anger spikes... my heart pumping in fury. My eyes tearing up when her my heart (I mean... her heart) would break."—Maryse's Book Blog, Maryse.net

Best in the Dream Man Series!!!

I love Kane "Tack" Allen!!!! Hands down the best Alpha Male from the Dream Man Series... with Hawk bring up a really close second....This book is the best of the series, I think... It was like Mystery Man but a bit better, and that was really hard to do, b/c Mystery Man was really high up there on my badassness meter!

From the open chapter, when Tyra and Tack fought about her job on the steps to the end on the picnic table in the RIDE parking lot.. this book was AWESOME... capitalized!

The way Ashely wrote this book, you can just feel the emotions and testosterone of Kane "Tack" Allen so clearly...

I loved all the drama.... the fights and action and the smexness of Tack Allen.. See I can't stop saying his name!!!

** Sidebar: Since I actually listen to Own the Wind before I listen to this, to get the back-story of Tabby and Shy in full technicolor was awesome... When Tabby talks about when Ty-Ty almost got hit with the bat...well that chapter was sweet.. when Ty-Ty gets stabbed, that part was EMOTIONAL! I love the fact that I now have history on Tabby, Shy, Elliot and Lanie, and Hopper!!! I so can't wait for Fire Inside...** Sidebar over.

I really can't find one bad thing to say about this book... Nothing... It was perfection... hence the 5 stars... So wish I could rate more than 5 stars, which I don't do too often...

Narration was great... same narrator for books 1-3 in the Dream Man series... Actually I kinda wish the narrators would have changed with each book, because all the female characters sound the same from book to book... SO a bit of adjustment is required if you are listening to these book back to back... HOWEVER, I rather have the same narrator instead of 4 bad narrators...so I am satisfied...

This is a must-have in your audiobook collection... Buy it, Credit it or Sale it... anyway you can get it...GET IT!

Happy Listening!!

This Narrator is awful

Where does Motorcycle Man rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

low, the narrator gives the most ridiculous accents to the characters. It really, really distracted me from enjoying this book. I will not be wasting any more credits on anything narrated by Kate Russell.

What other book might you compare Motorcycle Man to and why?

this is a good match to other Kristen Ashley books.

Would you be willing to try another one of Kate Russell’s performances?

no

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

laugh

Any additional comments?

please, please, don't let this narrator ruin any more Kristen Ashley books!

Sharp As A Tack... LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS STORY

What did you love best about Motorcycle Man?

The entire book and series. Tack is funny, strong, hard, and sexy. Oh, and he has a foul mouth. However, I loved everything about the book.

Have you listened to any of Kate Russell’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Kate Russell is a pro. She brings the characters to life. Near the end, it was easy to tell who was speaking and the Elvira voice has been consistent throughtout the series. Outstanding job.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes and will probably listen multiple times.

Any additional comments?

When I started this series, I thought Hawk was my favorite. Then, I listened to Wild Man and even though Brock had a foul mouth, I still loved the book and his relationship with Tess. Then I listened to Mitch. How can you not love that story of the quiet shy girl and the hot cop. Now Tack, I had the lowest expectation for this book, but I loved it. He parents different, he loves different, but I thought this was the best book. This series makes you consider packing up your home, move to Denver, and look for some hot guys. Great job KA and Kate Rusell made you believe.

Got to love a biker like him

Love the Tack and his MC. Love how he takes care of things in a kick ass hot way. Have not listen to the other books with this series but have read The Chaos series and Knight. All great books.

Great last book to the Dream Man series!

This book was great! Definitely my favorite of the "Dream Man" series! Tyra had plenty of sass, and her interaction with chaos leader "Tack" was both fun and hot!
Good story, all my favorite characters from the earlier Dream Man series books made their appearances, narrator did a good job too! All in all great listening! Thank you Ms. Ashley for giving us a fun heroine with backbone and a sexy biker hero with a warm heart!. Glad I used my credit for this book!!

NOT what I was expecting!! It was BETTER!

Would you listen to Motorcycle Man again? Why?

I am listening to Motorcycle Man again right now! I fininshed it & loved it so much, I wanted to relive every moment immediately.

What did you like best about this story?

I liked the unexpected meanings behind the way he touched her. I always enjoy KA's twists & turns that have you holding your breathe. And I love how you know the characters from past books, which gives you history & and a sense that you've known them all your life.

What about Kate Russell’s performance did you like?

I like how she sounds like one of your girlfriends talking when she does the females' voices, but I didn't really like the way she did the male voices. But it didn't make me not want to listen to the book again.

Any additional comments?

This is my FAVORITE of the Dream Man Series!! I wasn't expecting it to be since I'm not really a motorcycle lover. Boy was I WRONG!!!

Fave!!

I’ve read this book 5 times and love it so much! The audio book is just as great!

Dream Man Perfection!

This is SO one of my favorite books! I've loved all of the Dream Man series but this one was particularly good. Sometimes you're in the mood for a really well balanced story that has a little bit of everything that makes a story great. Motorcycle Man is it.

I love the men that Kristen Ashley comes up with for these stories, but, Tyra was so cool, she and Tack made an awesome duo and I enjoyed every moment of their love story. Although this could be a stand alone book, I'd get the other three because they are just as good. Very credit worthy book!

Dream Man Series:Spell bounding stories, but...

Would you listen to Motorcycle Man again? Why?

I would suggest that you start the series at book 1, as the characters in the books make appearances in subsequent stories. By then you have met them, and know a bit about their background. Sort of like meeting friends again, and picking up the trail in the rest of the series.

Any additional comments?

I have listened to all the Dream Man Series books (4), all read by Kate Russel. I would give her a 10, if not for the fact that she fails to 'whisper/shout/etc.' when the text tells us the character whispered/shout, etc. I understand that the reader goes through the text before taping, so she should be expected to be able to change the volume, etc. as she reads. in fact, it usually felt as if she did the opposite of what the text called for. this was very disturbing to the overall performance.
But she still gets a 9.

Brilliant!!!

You can't go wrong with this one! It has it all, love, lust, danger and laughter. Just buy it!
