The worst secrets are the ones you can never tell.
I’ve become an expert at hiding bruises.
No one knows about the scars I hide under my clothes … except for my best friend, Embry.
One horrible night, things go too far, and Embry insists on sending her cousin to help.
A wild, inked, bad boy and member of a notorious biker club.
I didn’t count on him riding to my house with two of his MC brothers.
The three overbearing, possessive outlaws won’t take no for an answer when I refuse.
Slash, Embry’s cousin and my secret crush. I never told him how I felt. He’s a reckless, dangerous, brooding giant who growls every word. He’s rumored to have earned his road name through his ruthless skill with a blade.
Gunner, the trio’s older, more experienced alpha, insists on keeping his distance and barking orders. But the look in those stormy gray eyes betrays his struggle, especially when they flash with heat and raze my body with their smolder.
And then there’s Havoc, a pierced, tattooed playboy with lean muscle and coiled strength. He’s left a mile-long line of broken hearts in his wake. But when his dark eyes focus on me, I swear he’s plotting how to maim everyone who’s ever hurt me.
The three bikers swear to keep me safe.
They won’t rest until the threat against me is eliminated.
But they didn’t know what they’d dig up. Lies, corruption, and a trafficking ring are only the beginning.
My father’s debts and horrifying choices reveal truths I can’t escape.
The only way I’m surviving this mess is to trust the Feral Rebels MC.
And let Slash, Gunner, and Havoc claim me.
This book has a brief crossover with the Tonopah and Las Vegas, NV Chapters of the Royal Bastards MC. If you read Hell on Wheels, this is Molly’s story.
CLAIMED BY THE BIKERS is a motorcycle club romance where the girl gets all the bad boys and doesn’t have to choose between them to get her happy ever after. It’s book 1 in the FERAL REBELS MC that consists of standalone romances with ongoing plotlines and interconnecting characters. There’s violence, biker slang, kidnapping, forced proximity, a taboo romance, and possessive, protective alpha outlaws who fall first.
Nikki Landis is a romance enthusiast, tea addict, and book hoarder. She’s the USA Today Bestselling Author of over fifty novels, including her widely popular Tonopah, NV RBMC series. She writes wickedly fierce, spicy romances featuring dirty talkin’ bikers, deadly, possessive reapers, wild bad boys, and the feisty, independent women they love. She’s a mom to six sons, two of them Marines. Books are her favorite escape. Nikki also writes steamy alien and monster romance under the pen name Synna Star.
Lincoln Blackwood is a force to be reckoned with at St. Charles University. As the star quarterback and the apple of everyone’s eye, his charm is as legendary as his notoriety. With a lineage as twisted as his three brothers, Lincoln thrives in the chaos they create. But when his mother’s marriage brings Iris Shelby into his life as an unwanted stepsister, the battle lines are drawn.
Iris, with her pristine facade, seems untouchable. Yet, under the pressure of maintaining her top rank and the incessant need to escape, she delves into a nightlife riddled with parties, drinking, and the forbidden. To Lincoln, she’s a challenge; something to unravel and possess.
Loyalty is thin, and secrets are currency, Iris must face a choice between surrender and survival, and Lincoln has to decide if he’s willing to finally allow someone other than his brothers in.
This is a dark college MF sports romance. There will be content that you would expect to see in dark romance. Please check the content list before reading.
Havoc Wilde is not just an author; she’s a whirlwind of creativity and passion. With a penchant for exploring the darker side of love and obsession, her novels often blur the lines between passion and madness.
Unapologetically bold, Havoc’s writing is a mirror to her pseudonym – wild, untamed, and irresistibly captivating.

Reviewer: Tabitha Adkins Book: Whoa by Cambria Hebert Format: Kindle Series: Westbrook Elite, Book 6 Published by Cambria Hebert, LLC Publication Date: December 08, 2023 Genres: Suspense, Romance, College Sports, New Adult Page Count: 433
Most people think I’m a moron. In actuality, I’m a man with a plan. It’s one of those three-year plans that takes longer than three years. Still, I’ve been making it happen. Checking off those to-dos and turning them into to-dones. Everything is almost lined up. And then my phone rings. By the time I get to Jess, she’s unconscious and bleeding. My carefully crafted plan blows up in my face. I tell the hospital we’re engaged. We aren’t, but apparently, in that place, you need a permission slip to see your most important, so I do what has to be done. I toss together an epic apology salad for when she opens her eyes, and when she does… She asks me who I am. I’m willing to overlook the insult since, you know, head injury, but then Nurszilla spills the beans on our pending nuptials. And just like that, my friend turns into my fiancé, and I’m not even mad at it. How could I be? Her curves fit in my arms perfectly. Kissing her is like whoa and makes me forget I’m living a lie. I know I have to come clean, but someone dirtier than me is stalking my final girl, and until she remembers who, it’s on me to keep her safe. The closer we get, the guiltier I feel. When all this is over, will she forgive me? Or will everything I’ve done cost me everything I’ve always wanted?
THE REVIEW
“If you run off, I’ll chase you down.” “I won’t run.” “I’ll chase you down,” I repeated. I meant it. I’d chase this woman to the ends of the earth. – Kruger, Ch. 29
As usual with a Cambria Hebert book, it’s taken me a few days to get passed the hangover that I get sucked into. Whoa is a total 5-star read and it has me wanting to take a deep dive back into Westbrook, which honestly, I probably will after I’m done with Gearshark and Bearpaw… because of them being intertwined.
Now, like the other books in this series, you could read them as a standalone, but it really does give you the much bigger picture plus insight into other characters that come after, or even those that we’ve already fallen in love with. Besides, I don’t know about you, but I love the little inside jokes that come about because of things in the previous books.
Whoa is the 6th book in Cambria Hebert’s Westbrook Elite series. And boy does it get you going in the very first chapter. This isn’t my first foray into a book with a character that has amnesia, (if you haven’t read Cambria’s Amnesia and Amnesty duology, then you really need to!) but the way that the FMC gets it was new.
Benjamin Kruger is our male main character, we meet him first in Book 1, though we only know him as Kruger, and he’s awesome! He’s super sweet, protective… and growly. Not something that we see in the previous books, but once we get a deeper look I can totally see. As he’s grown he’s had two friends, Jess and Prism, and has gone to school with them both for years. However, Kruger wants more than just friendship with Jess and has been working towards that for a long time. And that time has finally arrived.
Jessica Park is our female main character, and we do see her a bit in the other books, but not as much as Kruger. She’s one of the lifeguards at the pool where our Bro’s the Elite swim and is generally there during their meets. Just being friends with Kruger is a spot where Jess believes she’ll always stay, not believing there is any other option.
Just like every other time, when something happens to one Elite member, it happens to them all, and they show up en mass to be there to help one another. When gets a call and has to rush out to help Jess, it’s put into the Elite chat and they all come running, trauma lattes in hand. (Can’t say I blame the guys for hating Caramel lattes, they seem to need them a lot!) These boys and their significant others rallied around Jess is everything, expanding their families to include her, not even because of Kruger, but because of her.
We also get to see a bit of Jess’s friendship with Prism (we find out his first name here too! It’s Matt). We’re told a bit about his past and why he does things, like wearing airpods everywhere. (P.S. I’m pretty sure that Prism is our next Elite member who will be getting a book!)
This one is more on the sweet than the spicy side, but don’t think you don’t get the spice in here too, because we do!
Most people think I’m a moron. In actuality, I’m a man with a plan.
It’s one of those three-year plans that takes longer than three years.
Still, I’ve been making it happen. Checking off those to-dos and turning them into to-dones.

Humans are taught that death is the end, that it’s their soul’s final curtain call. But for the members of Valhalla Rising MC, death is only the beginning.
Acid…
My life was mediocre at best, but then I died and was escorted to Valhalla. I never thought of myself as a warrior, but rather a man who would do anything necessary to protect others. Which is exactly why Odin sends me back to the land of the living.
The woman I’m tasked with saving wants nothing to do with me, but my orders are to protect her at all costs. When strange things start happening on her farm, she relents and accepts my help, and I’m only too happy to provide it.
I know I can keep her safe, but I’m not at all sure about myself.
Peyton…
Some women spend their time searching for the perfect man, while others waste it on men who break them. I pride myself on not falling into either category. Men complicate things, leaving only pain and devastation in their wake. Which is why I prefer the company of my dogs.
Growing up in the foster care system, I never had any choice but to be independent. But when the life I’ve built is threatened, and I’m pushed beyond the limits of what I can handle alone, I’m forced to rely on the help of a handsome stranger.
Is he the answer to all my silent prayers, or will he destroy my heart even as he saves my life?

Beautiful Sinners is the highly anticipated second book of the Beautiful Sin Series.
Blurb contains spoilers from book 1, Beautiful Sin.
***
I went to Darlington Founders filled with hopes and dreams. What I found were three men from a past I didn’t want to remember. Tristan Amato, Hendrix Knight, and Constantine Ferreira. Three dark and possessive men who saw me as beautiful and not as the scarred, damaged, broken woman I had become.
After a decade of loneliness and feeling like I didn’t belong because of my scars, Tristan, Hendrix, and Constantine showed me what it was like to be desired. Wanted. Loved. They claimed me. Made me theirs. Protected me. And unknowingly thrust me back into the life I forced myself to forget ten years ago. A life filled with lies, manipulations, and betrayal.
But they weren’t the only ones keeping secrets.
As my past and my present collided, I was forced to make a difficult decision. One born from the fire and the knife that marked my body. One of vengeance for myself and for my parents.
Our enemies wanted Aoife Fitzpatrick? They got her. And they would regret ever bringing her back.
Beautiful Sinners is a full-length dark why choose romance. It is book two in the Beautiful Sin series and ends with a cliffhanger. Recommended for mature readers. Please check Reader’s Note in the front matter of the book for potential TWs.
My voice chokes up. I will never be beautiful. My scars will never fade, and no amount of skin grafts or plastic surgery will make them go away. The man with the constellations on his neck ruined me.
Hendrix stalks closer until my back bumps up against the curved cabin wall, and he towers over me.
“Who will you never be?”
Our gazes meet, the magnetic pull of him too strong for me to resist, but all I see are unwanted images of him with…
“Serena.” I can’t hold his intense blue stare, so I lower my eyes to his chest. “Or every other woman you’ve been with.”
I saw enough on his IG feed to know he has a type. Blonde. Skinny. Gorgeous. Huge boobs.
Lean but powerfully muscled arms cage me in, and then Hendrix is right there in front of me. The curve of his ribcage cuts into my torso. Every exhale of his warm breath tickles my forehead and cheeks, stirring the small hairs that have curled around my face. I soak in his body heat. His smell. Him.
“Drop to your knees, baby, and I’ll show you exactly who my cock belongs to because it sure as shit isn’t the woman out there.”
Sinking to the floor, my body is already obeying before my brain catches up, and I snap out of it.
