Publisher's summary

Who knew I’d find my destiny at Christmas? Not me. Or her daddy. Don’t mean I ain’t keeping her.

Darcy: I didn’t run away from a sadistic stepfather and a mother who wouldn’t protect me just to be carted off by some strange man. I fought the son of a bitch. Woulda won, too, except the bastard had help.

Viper’s rough around the edges and some kind of badass biker, so there’s no way this is going to work out well. Unfortunately, he calls to me on a purely sexual level. Makes my heart race and my body melt just looking at me. It doesn’t help he’s actually nice to me. He claims to know my dad. My real dad. Says he’s been sent to bring me back. I have no idea if I believed him or not. Just don’t really have a choice but to go along. At least for now.

Viper: I tracked the cunning little wench for three fuckin’ days. In the fuckin’ snow. She’s good, too. She survived on her own in a hostile environment with only a little trouble. That alone would make me respect for her, but then she had to go and kick me in the balls. Had I not been on the ground in agony, I’d have been turned on beyond belief. Now, with her safely under my protection, I’ve got to figure out how to keep my hands off her so her father won’t kill my sorry ass. He’s our intel man and one of my best friends, so I don’t want to cause him grief. But I want Darcy. Badly.

It’s Christmas Eve, and there’s an enemy on our doorstep with a unique gift. One that will leave us all with some hard choices—Darcy especially. What unfolds next is something none of us ever planned for.

Warning: Viper (Bones MC 4) deals with issues of abuse and human trafficking that may be triggers for some listeners.

I like this series!

This is the fourth book in the Bones MC Series. This is a series of interconnected stories. Viper and Darcy's story is intriguing, passionate, and fast-paced. Viper is dominant, and protective. Darcy is sassy, strong, and smart. I liked the mystery, the action, and the twists. The supporting characters are interesting and intriguing. I can't wait for Data's story, Darcy's Dad. I liked to see again the characters from the first books. Umi Markkanen did a great job bringing the story to life. Looking forward to listening to Arkham, the next book in the series. I like this well written series! #StoryOrigin

Amazing narrator & fun read...

Another fun installment of Bones MC–this one set during the winter, and packs an extra sassy female lead—and she’s the sister of leads from other books in this world.

We also meet a couple more bikers in this club, which made me want their books too, and get another glimpse at El Diablo.

Unexpected parenthood / secret child.
Bikers.
Forbidden vibes.
Holiday vibes.

Overall:
A fun, quick read. 4 stars.

🎧 Audio:
Another perfect audio production from this author/ narrator combination.
5 stars.

Quick and Steamy

This was a nice continuation to the series. I would have like to see a little more interaction with Darcy and Data but overall it was a quick and entertaining listen with a good narrator.

Viper!

This is the fourth story in the "Bones MC" series. These men of the Bones MC are tough, fierce, alpha and protective, This one is about Bones and Darcy. She is the daughter of Data, the Intel master in the MC. Bones is one of the Hunters for the MC and has been sent to Kentucky to find Data's daughter. The minute he sets eyes on her is is drawn to her. She is feisty, determined and a survival. I love how their story develops. I also love what Data says to Bones; or should I say threats. This is a gritty fast paced story and a fairly quick read. This is such a good story with some interesting twists and turns. The narrator did a great job bringing the story to life.

enjoyed it

Viper is who he is and doesn't hold back. When Data sends him after his daughter he never expected her to be his one. Darcy never knew her father, but she finally finds her home

Age gap romance

This is an age gap MC romance that will pull at your heartstrings. It’s a fast paced, quick read that instantly pulls you in. Umi Markkanen as always did a fantastic job bringing this story to life.

Excellent Story

Darcy is on the run from her stepfather and poor excuse of a mother. Her real father Data tracks her down and has Viper to go and bring her in. It starts her journey with Viper, and she realizes that not all men are like her stepfather. This action-packed story kept me glued to the pages from start to finish to see how it ends!

MC LOVE!!!!!

Viper came out the gate being who he was....just plain of badass and was put in his place by Darcy. Darcy was abuse and mistreated by her own mother but she learned something being sent away by her previous stepfather...those lessons truly came in handy.

I love that Viper make is clear to her father, Data, that she was his and he would do anything to keep her safe....which is exactly what he did all the way til the end.

I am sooo loving this series. I am soooo looking forward to the Data's and Stunner's stories all because Data is the nerd of the MC and Stunner is attached to the 12yo and treats her as his daughter.

Viper and Darcy

Darcey escapes her abusive step-father and useless mother. Her real father, Data, had the MC track her down, and bring her to the club. Turns out the scum of a step-father was also into human trafficking. Viper is one of the members who went and retrieved Darcey. Although much older, Viper falls for Darcy.
