Reaper’s Property by Joanna Wylde
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wowzers. Probably not the best intro for such a gritty biker novel but it’s my first reaction. Bang bang- welcome to the world of motorcycle gangs…correction motorcycle club. 😉
Horse is a member of the Reapers Motorcycle Club- a world that’s completely foreign to Marie. Marie’s recently escaped an abusive marriage and is living in a dilapidated mobile home with her loser brother. Her brother- in addition to being a druggie also happens to have quite the knack for computer hacking. The motorcycle game enters Marie’s life when her brother starts working for the gang. Her brother being the loser that he is, starts skimming Reaper money for himself Horse and his brothers step in to “work things out”.
Be warned – this isn’t a fairytale romance! There’s violence, drug use, club whores and murder…just to name a few things. All things considered I really enjoyed this book. Admittedly I’m not too familiar with the inner workings of a motorcycle club but based on the author’s forward it sounds like she’s done a fair bit of research that really enhanced my reading experience.
