WARNING: Not your usual romance. Please be prepared. This love story takes a turn toward dark, intense, and gritty subject matter,including sexual abuse, and could test your emotional fortitude.

New York Times bestselling author, Victoria Danann, begins a new biker romance series spinning off SSMC.

What will he do to get her back? Anything.

Take a journey into the exotic culture of bayou country in Louisiana's Lafayette and Acadia parishes. Cajun beauty, Angelique Bellefeuille, has had enough of bikers and their bullshit. Being put in danger because of her father's motorcycle club makes that conclusion rock hard solid.

When she's sent to an allied club for protection from a rival club, she's reunited with her childhood friend, Just Batiste. Only he's not the cute, fun, adventurous kid she remembers. He's large, in charge, and menacing.

Fate has her own sense of timing. The last thing Batiste needs is a distraction from the new joint venture with the SSMC that could make his dreams come true. But there she is dividing his attention, partly as memory of her as a little girl and partly as grown woman walking around in the mind-numbingly curvy form of a blue-eyed mischief maker.

Just when he thinks he can't get more frustrated with the little troublemaker, she's kidnapped by the very people he's supposed to be protecting her from. What will he do to get her back? Anything.

Distraction or not, he vows to personally initiate a facsimile of Armageddon on any man who would threaten, frighten, or touch Angel.

Victoria's signature humor ("Everybody was staring at me because I was on the subway in fits of laughter and couldn't stop!") creeps into each and every book whether she intends it or not. But the heart of Victoria's books is romance, the real kind that often begins with slow burn then lasts and lingers like a charge in the air. Forever.

The rich characterizations and quirky personalities that readers so often comment about come from being a lifelong student of behavior - casually (love to people watch), and a serious student of behavior academically. She has also studied comparative religion, myths, and Dark Ages history.

Victoria lives in The Woodlands, Texas with her husband and a very smart, mostly black German Shepherd dog.

Just is a very human and flawed character. I really enjoyed this book. It was a frightening subject but the storey was a page turner. I will look forward to more books about the Cajun Devils.

The first of a new series... awesome!

Reviewed in the United States on 25 June 2018

First, the really good news: If you are not yet a Victoria Danann reader, now is your chance to join us because this is the very first book in a new series. If you want to enjoy it to its fullest, it would be good to read the Sons of Sanctuary series first but that probably isn't necessary since the SSMC plays a secondary role here... sort of.

I was not very far into this book before I knew that I could probably predict the way we were going though it turns out there was a new side to it. It is similar in the basic story line to some other books by this author, particularly the SSMC books. So if it is somewhat “predictable,” then why the 5 star rating? Here's why, in reverse order:

3-Amazon doesn't have more than 5 stars.
2-It is another SSMC (sort of) book.
1-Victoria Danann is the author! That automatically qualifies it for all stars Amazon has.

About this book? I won't say much because you need to read it. My three favorite states of the 50, in order, are Mississippi/Texas, Texas/Mississippi, and Louisiana. This one is set in Louisiana (South Louisiana, which is really different from the rest) and Texas. And the author lives in South Texas so she isn't relying on research – she knows the area and people. This time she writes a romance story filled with action, local color and flavor, and her own, unique way of telling a story. If you have read anything at all from this author, you know what I mean and Batiste is more of the same in that regard only “just a little bit” better because Victoria Danann's story telling skills improve with every book... if that's even possible.

If you're looking for a fun little read, look elsewhere because this one had some real teeth to it... okay, probably not different from her other books but it looks at some things about a part of human behavior the is a little dark. However, it is NOT done in a distasteful manner, as disturbing as it may be to some. That's just a disclaimer for her, not a description. Personally I was not put off by anything here in the least except that the bad guy got his just desserts entirely too quickly in the end but then my ending really might have offended you. He deserved worse, much worse... but that's just me.

So that's why the book gets 5 stars. If Amazon gives us more, I'll go back and increase my score because this one deserves it. If you haven't read the previous Sons of Sanctuary books, I still think you really should go back to book 1 and start from there, just so you'll have a better grasp of the characters in this one and you will enjoy it while you're catching up. A lot! If you don't want to go to that much pleasure, go ahead and buy this one because it can stand on it's own. Great news! More Victoria Danann stuff will be coming soon!

Don't be put off by the single negative review. This is a wonderful start to a spin-off series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 October 2018

When I saw the overall UK star rating for this book was so far below 5 stars, I had to take a look at the reviews to see why. I don't very often write reviews - although I have done for this writer in the past - but I want to balance the ratings a little more towards where they should be.

Victoria Danann is, quite simply, the most wonderful author. She writes complex books for an adult audience, in the sense that she's not afraid of (and knows how to use) complex sentences and words of more than three syllables. Her world building and dialogue-driven writing draw the reader in, so that getting to the end of one of her books is both deeply satisfying and deeply sad at the same time, if you know there might be a wait for the next book in a series.

Yes, there are adult themes in this novel but they are handled in a sensitive way. Please, if you're not yet a fan do not let yourself be put off by the single negative review. Obviously that reader did not take the time to check what she was downloading on her KU subscription, and doesn't seem to have read any of Ms Danann's other books.

Victoria Danann is a must-preorder for me. I read a lot and she's actually one of my two favourite writers. If you're new to her work this isn't the best book to start the journey (although it does work as a standalone), so check out her series, choose the first book in one of them and just enjoy what will almost certainly be a marathon catch-up of everything she's written.

Her father has sent her to the Batiste's club house for protection. The Bars and Star's club on the second try get Angel and they have to get her back before they do something awful or sell her for sex. Good read enjoyed it.

Another great start

Victoria Danann has done it again. You are gripped from the first chapter. We met Batiste briefly in the last SSMC book. This is his story of how he let the one woman go that meant the world to him. When she needs protection the old feelings resurface.
