☆✮ My Review ✮☆
☆I received an ARC from LBTS PR in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!!☆
For those of you who have been following the Nordic Lords MC Series, you are well aware that Jules McAllister once dated a man named Stretch and on that very night that she had revealed to him that she was pregnant with his child, he died.
Now two years later, after escaping the clutches of an abusive ex, Jules returns back to Jasper Bay with her daughter, Sophie, in hopes of starting over and introducing Sophie to the closest link to her father, Jaden Dillon—Stretch’s younger brother who condemns Jules for his brother’s untimely death but has secretly always been in love with her. Jaden clearly wants Jules for his own but feels deep guilt and betrayal towards his brother for doing so.
“I couldn’t have felt like a bigger asshole. There were a lot of shitty things I’d done in my life. A lot of shit I wouldn’t risk confessing…But fucking my brother’s girl just because she made my dick hard? That had to be the biggest betrayal. Even in his death. But it didn’t mean I could shake her from my head either.”
As for Jules-- with her conflicting yet growing feelings and affections for Jaden growing, will she open herself to another chance at love with this brooding yet endearing man who is slowly working his way into her heart?
And with a storm brewing in the midst... will Jaden and Jules’ love stand testament of some past misunderstandings, Jules' disgruntled ex, and tensions mounting in the biker world?
Will they resolve old hurts and heal old wounds and make a break for a new future? Or will it crumble around them?
“Outside, it looked cold. Winter was coming. Death was coming…it was only a matter of time. And if I didn’t harden myself for it now, the pain would become unbearable when the final storm came.”
Well readers, you’ll just have to read to find out!
My thoughts: I really liked this one. Coming into this, I initially did not have much thought going for Jaden and Jules’ story, although, I was extremely curious to get to the bottom to the breakdown of their big fall out.
Luckily for me, it proved to be in fact the to best installment so far from the Nordic Lords series and managed to hold my attention for what’s to come in its follow up sequel, Point of Surrender .
I’m definitely going to stay on with this series as I’m thinking that there may be a Meg love match on the brink. Remember Meg and Brayden? The woman and son that Ryker met when he left Jasper Bay and was helping take care of? Yep, that’s them!! I REALLY hope Meg will get a love line in this series!! She deserves it!! Maybe her and Finn?
Gosh, I so!♥
My Rating:

☆✮ Excerpt✮☆
“I would have given it to you
last night. Anything you wanted, you turned those lying innocent eyes on me and
I would have fucked you so hard you’d forget all about Scratch.”
“That’s…” I swallowed and his
lips grazed the hollow of my throat. “That’s an asshole thing to say, Jaden.”
“I know.” He pulled away, our
noses almost touching, our harsh breathing mingling together. “Good thing in
the light of day I remember what a selfish, lying killer you are, isn’t it?”
