Thug by Scott Hildreth Book Review

 

Blurb:

Price McNealy was a modern-day outlaw. He thumbed his nose at society’s rules, regulations, and laws, not caring what anyone thought of him, or the actions he somehow justified.

If I made a list of why “not” to be with a man, he’d check all the boxes.

He was also confident, trustworthy, and loyal. When he wanted to make a point, he did so with a brash elegance that I wouldn’t expect to come from a self-proclaimed thug.

In short, Price McNealy was trouble.

Big trouble.

I had every reason in the world to refuse him service when he sauntered into my bar.

For a fleeting moment, I thought about it. The next thing I knew, I was bent over with my pants around my ankles.

My bar was packed at the time, but I simply couldn’t say no to him. When it came to denying Price’s desires, I was in trouble.

Big trouble.

NOTE: THUG is a stand-alone romance. It has no sex outside the relationship, no cheating, and no sexual triggers. It ends with an HEA, and is a romance novel in every sense. It does, however, include a sex scene (or two) in a public places. These scenes are consensual and tastefully depicted and steamy as hell. If sexual depictions are beyond your romance realm, read the free portion and see if this book is for you before purchase.

The hero in THUG is the president of an outlaw motorcycle club. The book loosely depicts the life of a motorcycle club but does not include non-consensual sex, club whores, sex outside the relationship, cheating, or lying.

Thug by Scott Hildreth is the first book in his new Hard Eights MC series.  This book was a fitting start to what I hope is another amazing series.  This is the story of bar owner Gray and MC president Price.  Both of these characters have their own codes and putting them together leads to a great ride.  The way each pushed and poked at the other led to a fantastic dynamic.  Gray wasn’t a pushover and Price wasn’t a love-sick puppy. Instead these two seemed to bring out the best in each other.  The story was fast paced but never rushed, had laugh out loud moments and others that made a girl sigh.  All in all I loved this book!

Tito by Scott Hildreth

 

Blurb –

The only man in my life I felt I could trust was my father.

A detective assigned to San Diego’s gang crime unit; his focus was outlaw motorcycle clubs.

His nemesis?

A gang of thieves who had wreaked havoc on the city’s financial institutions for nearly two decades.

As fate would have it, I was preparing for a one-night stand with a tough-looking biker. As long as my father didn’t find out, everything would be fine.

If he learned of my fling with the tattooed bad boy, I could certainly talk my way out of it. The odds of Taddeo ‘Tito” Silva being in my father’s crosshairs was impossible.

Or, so I thought.

TITO is book 6 of a 6-book series and can be read as a Stand-alone. It has no cheating, no sex outside the relationship, and has an HEA.

Betsy – 

Tito by Scott Hildreth is the sixth and final book in the Devil’s Disciples series.  This book is a fitting end to an amazing series.  Each book brought the readers to the eventual end however there is no way that they saw this coming.  The love story between Tito and Reggie was perfection.  Their matched wits and intellect was refreshing. The chemistry was also off the charts. However, it was the total story that made this a home run for me.  While it tied up the series with a nice bow, we also got glimpses of some of the characters that readers know and love from the author’s other books.  I give this two very ecstatic thumbs up.

 

 

GOOSE (Devil’s Disciples MC Book 4) by Scott Hildreth

 

Blurb – 

ALLY – He looked like he needed a “pick me up”, so I gave him one. In passing, I shoved my panties into the pocket of his leather jacket. It wasn’t typical behavior for me, but he wasn’t a typical biker.

It didn’t matter. I’d never see him again.

When he appeared at my favorite diner a few days later, my jaw hit the floor.

My panties weren’t far behind.

When I found out he was a thief, I grinned at the common bond we shared.

Then, I took his wallet.

I planned to steal his heart next.

First, I’d have to tell him the truth.

The entire truth.

GOOSE – Finding my pantyless Cinderella wasn’t going to be an easy task. I told myself if—and when—I did find her, I’d make her mine for one glorious night.

I quickly learned one night would never be enough.

I knew relationships weren’t for outlaw bikers. Relationships required honesty.

Being honest about club business was contradictory to the MC’s rules.

The only way around it was if she became a member of the MC.

We needed a member, no doubt. Not a smart-mouthed chick with a bold attitude, though. Unless she was a died-in-the-wool thief and a getaway car driver…

Still in Shock

After the last book in this series I couldn’t wait to see where this author was going to go and trust me when I say he didn’t disappoint.  Just when I think that one book can’t be outdone I’m proven once again to be wrong.

Goose has been torn upside down from losing one of his closest friends and he has struggled the most I believe with this.  When he sees Ally the first time there is attraction there that catches him off guard especially with what he finds she left him.  However, once he meets her he realizes that she is definitely unlike anyone he has ever met.

Ally is one of the strongest women I’ve see written in awhile.  She is who she is no apologies and she is smart and talented beyond belief.  She has this honestly about her that Goose is intrigued by however his biggest thing is TRUST.  That’s his hardest thing to do and he struggles with this throughout.

Anyone who has read this series will definitely want to read this and anyone who likes a strong female will enjoy this.  

 

The FedSex Man by Scott Hildreth

 

Blurb –

Having the perfect package delivered can be a life changer.

JO – Tyson Neese had secrets. Secrets that forced him to distance himself from anyone who offered him love. Bouncing from woman to woman, he feared not what a relationship provided, but what he may lose if he gave himself to another.

He delivered packages for FedEx, wearing his lack of trust like a shield of protective armor.

I was enthralled by him. Anyone would have been.

He was a walking orgasm, and an intriguing one at that.

His real beauty, however, was imbedded much deeper than what could be seen on the surface.

A socially awkward nerd of a book store owner who spent all her idle time secretly reading steamy romance novels, I was the least threatening woman he’d encountered in years.

He must have sensed it, because on the night we met he set his armor aside.

Open-mouthed, and completely out of my comfort zone, I wondered…

Could I live with what lie beneath?

TYSON – Jo Watson was the notch on my sexual bedpost I’d been waiting for, and nothing more.

One night with her was all I wanted. Hit it and quit it was my motto.

When she agreed to go on a date, she didn’t tell me everything. I wish she would have. Had I known of her assets in advance, I wouldn’t have gone.

Not knowing, however, started a sequence of events that changed my life – and hers – forever.

Laugh out loud and tug at your heart

Jo owns a bookstore and Tyson is her local fedex delivery guy. Jenny and Shawn are each of their best friends that definitely deliver great humor and actually great advice through this book.  At times though maybe too much advice.

Jo doesn’t have a lot of experience with men and Tyson has no experience with women outside the bedroom.  So this book is laugh out loud funny as these 30 somethings stumble through the dating life when neither of them know much about it.  However, the story that is told between the pages tugs at your heart strings. I laughed, I cried, and I learned things throughout this book.

This author has a way with all his books of throwing in lessons about life that you wish you knew a long time ago.  So kick back, grab a drink, your Kleenex, and get ready for a wonderful book that’ll put a smile on your face.

 

Lover Come Back by Scott Hildreth

Blurb – 

Scott Hildreth is a married father of six children. He is an international bestselling romance author who has published more than fifty novels, over half of which have been number one bestsellers. His journey to his current existence, however, wasn’t always an easy one.

He never imagined that a weekend hobby would land him in federal prison, a donut shop would produce the love of his life, or that contemporary romance novels would have his name splashed across the covers.

At one point, he had it all: a house on the hill, a wife, three children, and a rewarding career. After becoming the focus of an ATF investigation, his world was turned upside down.

The legal battle for his freedom ended in a loss on the steps of the United States Supreme Court. In the subsequent trip to federal prison, he lost his wife, contact with his children, and his home.

After serving his prison sentence, he returned to work and reunited with the men in his motorcycle club. Once again on top of the world, but lacking trust in society – and women in general – his only relationship was with his motorcycle.

Three years later, Scott was jobless, carless, penniless, and holding an eviction notice. He then took a chance at a career he had no formal training in – being an author. His inspiration came from a woman he shared a table with in a donut shop.

Fueled by nothing more than his love for her, he clawed his way to the top of the industry and hasn’t looked back since.

Lover Come Back is a true – but often unbelievable – story of loss, sacrifice, second chances, and ultimately, love. It takes the reader on a tear-jerking journey from the horrors of a federal criminal trial to the lush beaches of Naples Florida, where Scott and his family currently reside.

A testament to the pain the human heart can endure, and to the repair that only love can bring, Lover Come Back is a must-read memoir that will cause you to believe that second chances can produce first loves.

Betsy –

I am almost speechless after reading this. If you didn’t know it was a true story you could say that as a romance novel it is almost too good to be true. Reading Scott and Jess’s love story was sometimes difficult, sometimes amusing but always infused with the love that these two feel for each other. Memoirs are sometimes difficult because the writer tends to focus on the good and gloss over the bad. That is not at all what you get in this wonderful book. The honesty and raw emotion found on these pages had me crying with both heartache and laughter. This book most definitely makes the list of my top reads for the year.

EPIC MUST READ STORY

As I anxiously awaited the book being downloaded to my kindle. I knew that this was going to be a book like no other and as with all this authors books I wasn’t disappointed in any way shape or form.

I felt as though he had stripped himself bare and let all of us look at his life through a looking glass. Not ashamed of laying it all wide out in the open and telling the good, the bad, and the ugly.

As I read every word of the pages I could look back at all his books and see what part of him was on each page of his other 50 plus books. I knew from the moment I read the first book this author would be one of my favorites. However, through the years as I’ve read each book and I’ve decided this is my ride or die author and as long as he writes I will be reading his books.

 

GHOST (Devil’s Disciples MC Book 3) by Scott Hildreth

Blurb – 

Stand-alone, no cheating, no cliffhanger, HEA. CAUTION: This book defines love in the purest of senses. It will fill your heart so full there will be room for nothing else. For that, the author apologizes.

ABBY

Porter Reeves was a real biker. On the day we met, that was all that mattered. It was his ticket into my life. His entry fee. On that day, he took me on a journey. One that would change my life, open my eyes, and fill my heart.

I soon learned that Porter was on a collision course, and that he was unwilling to help himself. I felt that I could provide him with the help he desperately needed, if he would simply subject himself to change.

Coercing an outlaw biker to consider change isn’t an easy task.

But.

It’s one hell of a fun ride.

GHOST

Abby Northrop came into my life by mistake. A celebrity, philanthropist, and lover of all things life, she was exactly what I didn’t need in my life. She was a do-gooder, and I’d never done anything good in my thirty-one years on earth.

Nonetheless, I let her in. Just for one night.

My plan was to screw her and walk away.

It had worked in the past.

Hell, it was all I knew.

After one night, I knew walking away from Abby wasn’t going to be easy.

But, I never took the easy way out of anything.

Betsy – 

I’m really not sure what to say about this book. Out of all of Scott’s books, this one hit me as no other has. Porter (Ghost) and Abby’s story was everything. Sometimes sweet, sometimes sexy, sometimes amusing, sometimes serious but it was always real. As the pages dwindled down the pit in my stomach grew. The one thing you can say about Scott is that he is always true to the characters and the story as it comes to him. This is the perfect example. Not your typical romance novel with your typical HEA, this for sure delivers a punch unlike anything else I’ve read. Ghost will go down as one of my top reads in 2018 and for sure earned a place as a book I’ll read over and over.

THIS WAS MY EVERYTHING
While I’ve been a huge fan forever this book….right here. Has dragged me through the mud. I’m normally the person that as soon as this author drops a book I’m all in and don’t come up for air until I’m done. Not with this one. I had to read then stop compose myself then repeat. After almost 24 hours I’m finally able to post my review.

Stock up on Kleenex and alcohol you’re going to need it. Porter and Abby will take you on a journey that you’re not ready for. The hope, the love, the way they both touch your heart for different reasons. The strength they both show I’ve never EVER said this before. I’m not sure in my eyes this author will ever be able to out do this book. As I come off a hangover like no other I’ve ever had from this author. From the bottom of my heart I thank you even though I think you may have broken me a bit with this one.
