Publisher's Summary

Eight years ago, Sophie gave her heart - and her virginity - to Zach Barrett on a night that couldn't have been less romantic or more embarrassing. Zach's stepbrother, a steely-muscled, tattooed biker named Ruger, caught them in the act, getting a peep show of Sophie he's never forgotten.

She may have lost her dignity that fateful night, but Sophie also gained something precious - her son Noah. Unfortunately, Zach's a deadbeat dad, leaving Ruger as Noah's only male role model. When he discovers Sophie and his nephew living in near poverty, Ruger takes matters into his own hands - with the help of the Reapers Motorcycle Club - to give them a better life.

Living with outlaw bikers wasn't Sophie's plan for her son, but Ruger isn't giving her a choice. He'll be there for Noah, whether she wants him or not. But Sophie does want him, has always wanted him. Now she'll learn that taking a biker to bed can get a girl dirty in every way....

Critic Reviews

"Filled with rough language, no-holds-barred sex, the rumblings of a biker war, and threats from the past, this fast-paced novel entertains while setting up the next book in the series." ( Publishers Weekly)

Great Story, Narration, and I want MORE MORE MORE!

I'm so completely sold on this MC!! This was an excellent follow up to the first book. You've gotta love a tough guy that steps in to be a provider and handle business when necessary, so I was totally in love with Ruger from the start. I was equally excited that Tatiana Sokolov was narrating. Haberkorn--he was kind of 'meh', I've heard better, but Sokolov's 'biker gruff' adds that little extra something for me. So far, it seems that there are a host of other interesting characters which hopefully is an indication that there will be more books to come SOON! Reaper's MC will continue to be an automatic purchase for me, loved it!

Another hot biker!

Great story, Ruger is so hot! I just wish the same narrator from Reapers Property did this one too. Dual narrator was different... both did good but it would of been better with just 1. Love Joanna Wylde Reaper's books!! Can't wait for the 3rd & 4th! Well worth the credit :)

I Need A Biker.....Hot,Hot, Hot!

You have to love those Reapers! This was another great hit for me. I think that this biker gang really captivates you. It is totally believable and you get sucked right in. I love that both books have reoccurring characters but are still very different. The author explains the name thing, which I think many people questioned so now it really makes you see past the funny biker names. Sophie and Zack are a train wreck and you have to love how she has become a strong independent woman trying to take care of her son. She does not complain and does not easily fall into the biker life. Ruger is tough, funny, domineering and sexy. I like that he doesn’t just give up and that he continues to help even though she keeps sending him away. The chemistry was great and the dialogue between them was fun to listen to. I really enjoyed the biker woman and that even though they are “Property” they hold their own. It shows that you can be tough and taken care of all at the same time. Somehow the author takes this biker club and makes you understand the family connection and supportive atmosphere. Even though it is way out of my scope of reality you can still believe that this goes on. One thing I did not like was the male narrator’s voice. His female voice was not great and he did not sound rugged enough to play the part of Ruger. I would have changed that. This is a must read series and I cannot wait for more.

Dirty and Raw! Loved It!

Live to ride, ride to live. If there is one thing I know about bikers, I know they hold three things above all else. Their brothers, their bikes and their women. Bikers live an intense life fill with their own rules and danger. Do you really think the passion, lust and love they feel would be any different. Ms. Wylde brings all these elements to the page to give the reader a hang on tight book.



Ruger, tatted up and pierced, this full patched member of the Reaper’s MC will get your heart racing in more ways than a woman could imagine Badass, totally alpha and stubborn to the core. Brash and will just say it the way is. Ruger is really an ass and a manwhore. He likes his women and with no stings of any kind. An ass who has this protective streak that will melt you into a puddle. That made me go from thinking this asshole needed to be smacked upside the head to wanting to kiss him.



Sophie, a single mom who has gotten the short end of the stick one too many times. She is trying to make the best of what she has. She is a sweet, good-hearted and a great mom. A woman not willing to settle. This fact messes with her as her body tells her “YES, YOU WANT HIM!’ while mind is almost screaming no. Sophie and Ruger share a past and are connected, no have bonds that tie them deep. The love Ruger has for her son is not something one could ask for. Keeping her mind and body balanced around Ruger, keeps Sophie on an edge that is both comical and sad.



Ruger and Sophie are like two tornadoes going for each other. Emotions and lust trapped within these two for years, has come to a boiling point. I loved how they both just seem to lose their shit anytime they are around each other. The dual narration of Tatiana Sokolov and Todd Haberkorn bring another dimension to this book. Reading Reaper’s Legacy was intense, listening to it takes this story to another level. I was able to close my eyes and fully envision was being read to be. Bringing the Reaper’s MC world from black and white to full color. Warning- I would not listen to this in your car while driving. Yes, its that hot. An excellent narration for a kick ass book. This is not a sweet romance book. Powerful, raw and some would consider parts of this book walking the line. I call that love. Come on peeps, it Biker’s. Love is not always pretty and sweet. It’s jealousy and rage. Mind-blowing and lust. Passion and sacrifice. It’s an addiction and worth fighting for. That is Reaper’s Legacy! An auto-buy series for me.

Reaper's world

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes I would because it's a very good story; I would however, have to caution them on the male voice, all I visualized when listening to the male characters was skinny, toothless men.

What did you like best about this story?

The struggles of a single mom trying to make it for her son and those around her who unselfishly helped. And of course Sophie and Ruger’s journey into happily ever after.

How could the performance have been better?

I did not like the male voice. I much rather have a female doing a good male impersonation than the male voice chosen for this production. Stella Bloom (Reaper's Property - Book 1) did a much better job. I'm hesitant to buy the next installment, Devil's Game - Book 3, because of the male voice. In book 1, Horse the main male character sounded sexy, strong, and determined just as the author described him, when I heard him in Reaper's Legacy it ruined it for me.

Reaper's Forever!

I have fallen for the Reapers... don't ask me to do it... I can't pick my favorite. These rough-on-the-outside men have hearts-of-gold on the inside. Wylde has created characters readers couldn't possibly not fall for. They're strong, committed and fiercely loyal.

I wanted more time with Ruger and Sophie once they were happily together. There was a lot of time taken in the book to set up the overall club, aka world building, which I appreciated but I craved more Ruger and Sophie moments.

Now to get my hands on another hot, sexy Reaper... uhm, I mean, another Reaper's MC book. ;)

Brilliant!! Great 2nd Book!!!

Would you consider the audio edition of Reaper's Legacy to be better than the print version?

Yes!

What other book might you compare Reaper's Legacy to and why?

The other biker club from the author of Madeline Sheehan, also narrated by Tatiana Sokolov. I love these biker books, they live a different life style.

Which scene was your favorite?

There were a couple of favorite scenes, the beginning, when Sophie got kidnapped and the ending. I hope there will be a 3rd book on M and Hunter story. I would like to see how Josh (Sophie's son) becomes a young adult. And their daughter.

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

Not really, it needed to be in two parts.

"The Wolf Inside"

What did you love best about Reaper's Legacy?

Ruger is hot, determined and focused. This series has more story than the Madeline Sheehan #2. Both this author and MS #1 books are not to be missed. Too bad Stella Bloom did not have the great male voice needed to carry this series.

What about Tatiana Sokolov and Todd Haberkorn ’s performance did you like?

Well, TS is great and carried this book. Unfortunately Todd did not use his deeper voice as I am sure that was the deal to be able to use TS in this series. Todd does have a deeper male voice he uses for his other reads. I have not placed Todd's AKA, as I own so many books to go back and figure it out.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

when Sophie decided to put an end to abuse.

Any additional comments?

I will get Em story after listening to book #4. I an hoping that TS carries that book as she did in this one. #4 has a different male reader and for all I know ,Todd used his deeper voice, but I will not be able to tell until I hear it. This series needs deep male voices to make the strong bikers real, which TS has. Unfortunately, Todd's higher pitched biker voices failed to get the job done.

My what a difference the narrator makes!

Now that Tatiana Sokolov is narrating this story, I look forward to the rest of the series! She is great and narrates the Undeniable series. This story was more biker, trouble, sex and drinking, but more realistic than other biker series. I enjoyed it!

HOW could you not LOVE this guy!!!

Okay, this is a good story. Again, in some places a bit unrealistic and the same concerns of good vs. bad with the MC but all in all the guys are good guys. I enjoyed the struggle and growth of both characters and really could have had a bit more, more depth, more time. Hopefully there will be more in future with others so we can get a check in! Good book, no serious complaints, same thing with previous narration, good, there are tons of players here so all the voices are difficult.
