Review:
Ok so normally this is where I would give you
a whole set up for the review including a quick review of the synopsis and some
more details about the story, but I think I’m going a different direction this
time. Instead I’m just going to express to you the greatness of this novel! If
you have read any of the stories in this series you are a bit familiar with
Kane “Tack” Allen, being the president of the Chaos Motorcycle Club and a
serious badass in his own right. This
novel is the story of his fall from bachelorhood and into the love of a good
woman. Tyra is certainly not the type of
woman that you would imagine with a badass like Tack, but they seem to mesh in
the end, no matter how strangely.
When
Tyra began her new job by attending a party at the Chaos Compound, she falls
instantly into lust with Tack and into his bed, but the next morning he proves to
be a real asshat. After all that, she has to face him on her first day of work
as his new office manager, no matter how resistant Tack is to the idea. When she stands up to him, demanding her
right to keep her job, she immediately becomes more interesting to the very jaded and terrifying biker. After a few
days of work, Tack decides it’s time for him to put the moves on Tyra and show
her that she belongs as his woman.
Through a strange series of events including kidnapping, attempted
murder, psychotic ex-wives and trouble teens, Tack and Tyra find that if they
can overcome their personal issues and find a way to really communicate, the
love that can form between a calm and rational woman and her sexy badass biker
is one that can overcome any obstacle and last forever.
Being
a novel by Kristen Ashley, Motorcycle Man is full of crazy antics, intense
passion, and a strange bond that forms between two very disparate
individuals. I found myself sighing a
lot at Tack’s actions, confused and a bit scared just as Tyra is, until finally
in a heart wrenching outpouring of his feelings Tack finally explains why he is
the way he is. That scene was one of the
most heartbreaking I’ve ever read and having to understand his feelings through
Tyra’s POV makes it even more complicated and sad. I also found myself laughing a hell of a lot
at Tack and Tyra’s arguments, the back and forth between them is just too
hilarious especially the scenes where their fights turn into passionate loving.
When it comes to the love scenes, the heat that explodes between Tyra and Tack is so
intense that I found myself running out into the freezing night air just so I could
cool off enough to finish reading. Tack’s passionate nature shows through all
facets of his life, his MC, his family, and his love life; that passionate nature
has led him to make some good decisions and some bad ones in his life, but this
time he knows that Tyra is the right choice for all the roles she will fill and
is determined not to let her get away, no matter how many times he has to fight
her to keep her.
This
entire series is full of completely sexy, scarily alpha, and dangerous men,
from all walks of life. Being a president
of a Motorcycle club, Tack comes with some built in issues and a very intense
lifestyle. Tyra is one of those women
that has lived a mostly sheltered life, living in her own little sphere, but
when she steps out, she steps into a completely different life that involves
danger, passion and changes to her personality that ultimately make her a
stronger woman. Seeing Tyra grow as she interacts
with and ultimately falls in love with Tack was an eye-opening experience to
say the least. Tack is one of those guys that sometimes I just wanna beat, but
in the end he is a good guy, if a bit set in his ways and determined to try to
force Tyra into the box he thinks she should fit into. In the end I have to say that I loved this
story more than any of the others I have read but Kristen Ashley, and though I still
have an aversion to the first person POV she uses, I will be continuing to read
any story that has to do with these sexy men and the Chaos MC. In conclusion I will just repeat that last
thought that I had as I finished the novel… SQUEEE!!!
