Running on Diesel

The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor, Book 9

A funny, sexy, and emotionally riveting stand-alone contemporary romance by New York Times best-selling author Melissa Foster. Running on Diesel is the perfect love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, strong family bonds, bikers, babies, and more!

Desmond “Diesel” Black is a Nomad with the Dark Knights motorcycle club. He protects others with his life and always rides alone. Tracey Kline left the only family she had for a man who broke more than her spirit, leaving her untrusting and on her own. When a twist of fate reveals pieces of the other no one else sees, will they be able to help each other mend their past hurts and learn to trust the chemistry and connection that’s too strong to deny?

The Whiskeys are perfect beach reads with depth of story, strong family ties, and a wealth of emotions. Small-town love stories with happily ever afters guaranteed. The Dark Knights motorcycle club is not a typical MC book. These bad-boy bikers are tough, but they have hearts of gold...and they're not afraid to use them.

Rough, Gruff, and Amazing!

Oh, Diesel. I've had a thing for this man if no words since we first met him. He had the quiet mystery about him that just made you want to know more, more, more. And this book cover!?? Holy hotness!

I loved how Traci calls him "Unleaded", I got the best laugh with that name because Diesel just doesn't feel like the type of gruff biker who does nicknames like that. She just knew how to get under his skin. Diesel is a protector, first and foremost, and we see it in everything he does. But he protects his heart the most. The way he took care of Traci after her altercation was sooooo good. He just held her. That right there is just, *sigh*. That's my man!

I really loved when the story moved on to Diesel sprinting away last minute to Colorado to seek answers. The Colorado characters are a whole new (well, we've recently met them here and there) bunch of characters that I absolutely fell in love with! I didn't actually see the story going in that direction and was pleasantly surprised!

But that ending?? Gaaah! My heart! I never thought I'd ever see that big, tough guy open his heart like that and promise forever to his girl. Never. Love it!!

I devoured this story solely in audio and the narrators did a fabulous job on both characters, but I really feel they outdid themselves on the secondary characters. The voices were phenomenal. You never questioned who was talking.

A battle of heart that will kick you in the soul.

Running on Diesel is a battle of wills that refuses to back down on heart. It's a fight to the finish that will kick you in the soul while giving you a reason to smile.

Enjoyable story.

I enjoyed this series so much. I love stories like these, the whole book has my attention and I got nothing done because I couldn’t stop thinking about the story, the characters and where the plot of the story was going. I fell in love with Melissa Foster’s books after a reader friend’s recommendation, I’m so glad I listened. Great series not to be missed.

Diesel Black has stole my heart!😍💘❤

OMG this book was amazing from start to finish. Every page was burning up with Diesel and Tracy's love. All I can say is this story is Panty melting, toe curling and heartwarming that is a must read. The rough nomad will steal your heart.

broody biker finds his home

Tracy escaped an abusive relationship and ended up in Peaceful Harbor. She works at the bar with Diesel of the Dark Knights.
Diesel is a restless, brooding soul and stays to himself most of the time. He always ready to head for the open road. Sometimes he will go to visit The Whiskeys in Colorado at the Redemption Ranch.
Tracy and Diesel both have family issues. Diesel mom passed away without telling him who his father was. He always felt empty, lost. Even though the Whiskeys embraced him, it really never felt like home.
Tracey was always afraid to go home to her mom. Tracey felt guilty and ashamed that she didnt listen to her mother about her abusive boyfriend. Tracy tried to contact her mom, but she moved away and changed her phone number. She felt lost and abandoned.
Tracey and Diesel connection is like a time bomb, when finally they get together its explosive, hot and steamy.
Melissa Foster stories are emotional, all about family, love and forgiveness.
Savannah Peachwood and Jacob Morgan are wonderful narrators.
They bring depth to each character. I can feel each moment of emotion, anguish, anger, torment, throughout the story.
