Ryder Hard Kindle Edition

What would you do if your weekend tryst turned your encounter into a best-selling novel and movie?

Well, if you're Trevor Dickson, son of legendary porn stars and a former child actor, you audition for it, of course.

Ryder—Trevor’s go-to alias—helped him maintain a no-attachments lifestyle. Not to mention, escape his parents’ infamy . . . and his own. A lifestyle he’d always enjoyed until he spent one amazing weekend with a woman who he wanted to know him as Trevor.

What better research for an erotic romance novel is there than a weekend of passion using fake names and no phone numbers?

Tangela Webber wanted to be the biggest thing to hit the book world since e-readers. Tangie got more than she bargained for. Fame came swiftly, and her debut novel was being made into a movie. She knew her anonymity wouldn’t last forever. She just never expected it to end when her real-life muse walked in to read for the leading role.

Who better to play that part than the original Ryder Hard?

5.0 out of 5 stars Ride Till I Die - Wow!
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2022

This is a brilliantly written story with a well-thought-out plot and twists and turns you do not see coming. Two lonely souls meet by chance and are immediately attracted. One is Tangela Webber an author who lacks the experience to be able to write hot steamy love scenes in order to get her book published with the hopes of it becoming a movie. The other Trevor Dickson who uses the alias Ryder has a no attachments lifestyle and is trying to escape his parents’ infamy of being legendary porn stars. Will they be able to spend just one weekend together or will their pasts tear them apart? This story will captivate you right from the beginning and will not let you go. It has beautiful steamy romance, gut-wrenching heartbreak, and talks about the need to take responsibility for your actions but not those of others. I love this author's amazing work and will certainly read more of her work. I would give it a 10 if I could.

This story had a lot of heat and instant attraction. A quick read that will leave you wanting even more. Tangie and Trevor kept things really interesting and I couldn’t tear myself away from their story. Nothing is perfect but when you really want something you will do whatever it takes. You will love these characters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot standalone story!
Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2019

Tangie’s dream is to see one of her books made into a movie, but she needs help, her publishers want more heat & she has no clue how to write it. She decides an anonymous night of passion is what she needs.

Trevor has one night stand after another, never letting women get close, they only know him as Ryder & “repeats” are not an option.

A chance meeting for these two changes everything, but will a tragedy from the past destroy everything?

Even though Ryder Hard is a quick read, the feelings I experienced while reading were all over the board...smiles, frustration, love, laughs & yes, even a few tears. And I can't forget to say that it was also smoking HOT!!

If you haven’t read Verlene’s books yet, this is a great place to start.

4.0 out of 5 stars What a weekend
Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2019

All Tangie wanted was one weekend of good sex so she could spice up her book. Little did she know that it would take off. Rocket her to stardom and become a movie. But all she wants is to be back in that room with Ryder. Little does she know that he is about to walk back into her life.

Ryder was tired of being Ryder. All he wanted was someone to see him Trevor. Once he lays eyes on Tangie he can't stop thinking about her. After there weekend together he desperately wishes he had told her his real name. Watching her fly is harder then he thought so he sets out to make her his again.

Verlene takes on a soul searching journey through the eyes of two people who think they are broken. It takes seeing each other from the others view to see that they aren't broken and both deserve love.

To me this was a quick and easy read. I got so lost in the story that I was sad when it ended. I laughed, smiled, and even cried with the characters. And certain scenes were hot! Highly recommend

This is my first book by Verlene Landon and I really loved this book! Tangie needs to spice up her life and do some research for her book. She goes to a party where she meets Ryder. I really loved everything about this book. It’s fast paced, with plot twists, the characters are well developed and I really loved the chemistry between them. A great read and one I highly recommend.

Can two people fighting their own past and demons come together and help each other overcome their issues? Ryder/Trevor has a past he doesn't want to acknowledge and Tangie needs to find her passion. Tangie had worked so hard to become an author but needs to find a way to spice up her books. Can a weekend between these two turn in to more and help them move forward?
