Publisher's Summary

Thomas "Cuss" Layne has never wanted for anything, except the beautiful girl he saved so long ago. But she's a rich girl, and he's a biker. For years, he hasn't had a glimpse of her. Still, he's never been able to get her out of his mind. When her life's in danger, he rides to her rescue once again. This time, he's determined to do what he should've done long ago - make her his, in every possible way.

Tiffany Hamilton has never gotten over the bad boy with the sapphire eyes and midnight hair, the boy who once saved her.

When the sexy biker barges back into her life, saving her yet again and making demands, he makes it impossible to say no to his raw magnetism. She'll finally have everything she's dreamed of...but will it be enough?

enjoyable but repetitive

Overall, I enjoyed the story but found it to be repetetive, almost to the point of annoying. I understand the conflicts the author was portraying, but overstating the same conflicts made the main characters almost seem....juvenile?

I did enjoy Tiffany's character as she's different than most MC old ladies.

There are some captivating moments when I was completely drawn in.

Worth the read. I'm invested in this MC story line.

Slow Burn

This is the second book by J L Sheppard that I have listened to and I find it to be enjoyable. The story is not the typical MC book, as Cuss has loved Tiffany since high school. Some of the characters act gruff, yet have true hearts. Dawson McBride did a great performance with his gravely voice. I liked the idea that Cuss was willing to set Tiffany free, although his method was not very mature. I had requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review.

Good Read

Running Hot (Hell Ryders MC #2) was a great read by J.L. Sheppard. Thomas has always wanted Tiffany since he save her a long time ago. Unfortunately he is a biker and she is just a rich girl. He comes into her life to save her again when she is in danger and he is determined to make her his. I really enjoyed reading Tiffany and Thomas’s story and can’t wait to read more by J.L. Sheppard.

Running Hot

There was danger and suspense in this book as well as a slow burn between the main characters, Thomas and Tiffany. It was a good book but it took a long time for them to get together and their communication skills were seriously lacking. Dawson McBride did a great job bringing this story to life. His gruff voice was perfect for Thomas and the other club members. I received this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Loved Cuss and Tiffany

I really liked the story of Cuss and Tiffany. It was a different MC story than ones I e read in the past as Cuss has had a thing for Tiffany since high school. This was a slow burn which made it feel realistic between the two opposites. The narration was great for both characters. I’m invested in the series and plan to continue! I was given a free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Running Hot

“I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.”

Let's start by saying I'm a fan...I enjoyed the first book but enjoyed the second even more! I love how the couple had a past before "Cuss" joined the motorcycle club.
A true clash of stations in life...Tiff is a rich girl that has had a crush on "Cuss" forever, "Cuss" is a guy that has had a crush on Tiff but feels he is not good enough for the rich girl. He may feel that he is not enough but that doesn't stop him from protecting her at every opportunity. When Tiff's father contacts Thomas, he knows something is seriously wrong and that Tiff must be in deep trouble.
This is not a second chance novel as the main characters were never lovers in their past and its not exactly friends to lovers either since Thomas wasn't very nice to her the last time he rescued her but its a love story none the less - where rags or riches don't matter and I also like that although he is a biker and has all the attributes of a biker...that doesn't overtake the whole storyline.
I look forward to the next book.

Dawson performance was great . His voice was strong, clear and smooth

Great narration!

I don't know why the author chose to make a sexy alpha male, a biker no less, so angsty but thank goodness for the great narration! I stayed with all the hand-wringing and the second-guessing and the brooding because McBride can narrate the phone book and make it worth it.

This was a boy-meets-girl-boy-loses-girl-boy-keeps-tabs-on-girl-while-girl-meets-other-boys kinda listen. Through all the "there's no way he/she likes me" moments, there is this sexy voice in your ear and you just don't care.

Great listen

I loved this story, I admit Tiff got on my nerves at the beginning as she was blind to what was being said to her, bit when she woke up to Thomas's feelings, all was good, just shows how a good author can pull your emotions like that . The narration was good too, easy listening that makes this come alive and the best bit was I had this on Whysper sync.
