Synopsis
Sex. Who really knows sex? I mean, we've all had sex, great sex even but when you get down to the details, how many of us actually see sex for the raw, primal act that it is?
I thought I knew sex. I've had sex. Heck, I've felt lust. Once, I've even felt love. I thought I knew exactly what sex was.
Until I met Cade.
He's the meaning of sex.
He's a biker.
He's dangerous.
He's powerful.
He's dominant.
He wants me.
My world is about to change, for the better? I don't know. But here's my story, I hope you're ready for it because it's not the beautiful, heart wrenching story most people have to tell. It's passionate, forbidden, morally incorrect and downright, fucking beautiful.
My Review
Addison has been dealt a hard blow. Growing up in one of the worst circumstances ever she has learnt to survive.
I will fight. I will beg, but in the end, the result is always the same. He will take what he wants, and he will leave a part of me that much more broken.
It's raw and ugly yet she just keeps on going. When she gets her chance at freedom, she takes it.
I'm going to free myself of my life, in the only way I know how. By Running.
She heads to her long lost father's Biker compound. Her goal is to stay, earn some cash and move on.
That's until she meets Cade. Her father's V.P
Cade has survived his own hell and now lives in Guilt. When he locks eyes on Addison, he just knows that he needs to have her.
But this is more than just about Cade and Addison.We deal with the fallout of Addison and her father.
"You didn't think my mother raised me in a nice neighbourhood with rainbows and lollipops, did you?"
The story is told from Past to Present. You get glimpses of her childhood as the puzzle pieces come together.
It was horrible to read about Addison's Childhood, the raw emotion that you feel reading her pain really effects you, but what was so heartbreaking was her able to talk about the pain in such a disconnected way. I found that the hardest.
"You're a bit late to play daddy now, Jackson. In fact, I am pretty sure you lost that chance the day I turned thirteen and got raped by a man nearly three times my age."
While her relationship with her father is all over the place, Cade makes it very clear he wants one with her.
He wants her, but Addison has built her walls so high to protect herself, she can't let Cade in.
"None of them are as real as you. I'll fuck you, sugar. I'll claim you because you're the meaning of need. You're what I've been looking' for." ~ Cade
"I'm not what anybody looks for. I'm not what they fight for. I'm not what they breathe for. I'm not the girl you think I am." ~Addison
Addison has that hardness to her that only comes from the nightmare she endured.
But her sassiness was fun!
"Sassy little thing, aren't ya, sugar?" ~ Cade
" Stop calling me sugar. Do I look sweet to you?" ~Addison
I loved that she didn't like people names hahahah
Cade Duke? What a stupid name.
And Cade was such a Badass Biker..
"You wanna leave in a hiss, go ahead. I ain't chasin' ya, sugar. It ain't how I roll. You wanna get into the bed; I'll talk to you. I'll fuck you again and I'll even hold you while you sleep, but if you wanna storm out. I'm not comin' after you. I don't play with women. If they want the good side of me, they get in and let me give it, but if they wanna run out in a mood, that ain't my issue."
But Addison is also running from her past, soon it catches up with her, and in turn leaves her at the mercy of the Hell's Knights. Can they protect her from the evil chasing her?
I really enjoyed this, Bella had me hooked! I love the MC world. Cade was perfect for me, a little mean, but still had his sweetness to him. I loved him. I enjoyed seeing Addison and Jackson and build their relationship. So sweet.
This booked left me in a book hangover for another MC read. If your looking for Bad Ass biker read that isn't too heavy on the darker side of MC then this one is for you.
He picked up my pieces and put me back together, even when I thought no glue would hold. Turns out Cade was my glue, and in a sense, I think I am his.

Excerpt
“No, I guess I didn’t. I wanted to, but then Cheyenne came in and you took a liking to her, so I didn’t bother.”
“I went to her, and I fell in love with her, but she wasn’t what I wanted for myself, Tomcat. I wanted you, but you wouldn’t give me a God damned inch.”
“You didn’t think of telling me?” I snap, crossing my arms. “You didn’t think that maybe you should have said something before you just ran off with Cheyenne?”
“What was the fuckin’ point? You couldn’t fuckin’ see it. I tried, fuck knows I tried, and yet you didn’t see me. I was sick of tryin’. Cheyenne threw herself on me, and I thought what the fuckin’ heck?”
I feel my body begin to shake. “I didn’t see it, Spike. It wasn’t because I didn’t want to, it was because I was so scared I would ruin everything if you knew how I felt.”
“Fuck, Ciara, I was constant with you. I picked you up every mother fuckin’ day, I spent every mother fuckin’ weekend with you, I was there all the time.”
“I know that!” I cry. “God, Spike, I know you were ok? I didn’t see it. I was young and I didn’t fucking see it. Then she came along and I stopped believing there was a chance. It was not just on me, or you, it was on us both. We both walked away without telling each other there was so much more to it. I know what I gave up, I know I passed you over to her, and I regret it every day.”
“I don’t regret it, Tomcat. I loved Cheyenne, and I don’t regret marrying her…bu-”
I get to my feet, hurt. His words are something I already knew, but it’s the way he said them. He grips my arm before I can spin away, and yanks me back down. I land harshly, and slap his hand away but his grip is too strong, and I can’t get my hand out of his.
“One fucking moment,” I spit. “One fucking moment can’t go by without her being better. One fucking moment, I’d like to mean a tiny bit more than her. You can’t fucking see it, can you? You walk around with those stupid fucking rose colored glasses on, unable to see anything she did. I never doubted you loved her Spike, I knew you did. I saw it. I lived it. But for one fucking moment I wish it was me.”
I jerk my hand out of his grip, and spin, getting to my feet and turning to walk off.
“It was you,” he yells, stopping me in my tracks. “I don’t regret her, Ciara. Not for a fuckin’ second, I don’t regret lovin’ her, I don’t regret marryin’ her. Cheyenne changed my life, she changed a part of me, but you, Ciara, were the one who opened my heart. You were the first one to claim it, and you were the one who fuckin’ tore it out of my chest the day you ran off. You never gave me a mother fuckin’ chance to explain myself to you. I woke up after we slept together, and you were gone. Couldn’t fuckin find you. It was you who took my heart, and you who fuckin’ broke it. She picked the pieces up when I couldn’t find you, and so I stopped fighting. Cheyenne might have had me in the end, Tomcat, but my heart was always yours first.”
