Description:
New
York Times bestselling author Chantal Fernando returns to the Knights
of Fury series with her most complicated hero yet. He may be the
epitome of cool, but this MC president isn’t called Temper for
nothing…
Every
year, the hot, tatted biker comes into Abbie’s bar, orders whiskey
and asks her out. Every year, Abbie turns him down. After all, dating
a man that goes by Temper seems like a really bad idea, no matter how
attracted she is to him.
But
this year is different. Abbie’s different. Older, wiser and tired
of being stuck behind the bar in a sleepy town. This year, she’s
ready for whatever adventure the sexy but sweet biker has in store
for her.
Or
so she thinks…until an elegant candlelit dinner ends with a dead
body.
Now
Abbie finds herself on the ride of her life, whisked away to the big
city in Temper’s protective custody. She should be scared,
but—despite his nickname—it’s clear the last thing Temper would
ever do is hurt a hair on her head. And when danger catches up with
them, Abbie soon realizes that holding tight to her man while
straddling a Harley may be the safest place of all.
My Review
Despite his name, temper is quite sweet. I have read the first book in this series, but I honestly can't remember if he showed more signs of the reason for his name in that or not. Either way, even though he shows flashes of the reason behind his name there's usually a good reason for his anger. When it comes to Abbie, then although he can be a little overprotective, it's clear right from the first time that we see them together, he's got some deep feelings for her.
Abbie has been waiting for her life to start, or perhaps more accurately, she's letting it pass her by and is settling for what she thinks is her lot in life. When she finally decides to take a chance on Temper and throw caution to the wind, then everything changes for her.
I don't really like the way that Temper takes control after their first date. I'm not sure that dragging a woman off against her will can ever really be justified, but perhaps that's part of Temper learning how to be part of this relationship. It isn't too long before he manages to give her back some control and work towards a partnership.
I liked the relationship between Abbie and Temper, particularly once past that first awkward taking her away from home. I also enjoyed the way that they became a team and Abbie was able to give at least as good as she got. This was a very enjoyable read and I'm sure that I'll be checking out more from the Knights of Fury in the future.
