Oh God. Where do I start....?!
Perhaps it was my fault, because I did not read the description of the book. I looked at the good ratings and the hot cover and went for it.
It started out pretty standard, boy meets girl (again) and so on and so forth. I ate that right up.
Then complications start happening. Duke turns out to be a werewolf (wtf... I thought I was reading a normal book) AND there is a motorcycle club, and they're all bad and dangerous and rawr, but not at all, because some people are more dangerous...

I truly couldn't finish this book. It was way too much for me.

Gen always had a crush on her brothers best friend in high school, Keith. However once he left, she never expected to see him again. Now Duke is a biker with Rolling Thunder and a potential client for her real estate company. Duke makes his interest known from the beginning, but with their new arrival in town it is not safe for him to date Gen. Once the time has passed though, Duke moves in and Gen falls hard for Duke however it is not a smooth ride as tempers flare, danger lurks, and Duke reveals a secret about him being a werewolf.

This was a fascinating book. I was completely entranced from the very beginning. Duke is pure alpha and Gen struggles to find her way with him at times. Gen has a long history of being with cheaters and her fear that Duke would do the same is holding her back from fully embracing her love her him. Unexpected and a complete delight.

well the heroine irritated me throughout but the hero and the supporting males really made me really like it and want to read more by this author so it did the job!

This was a good introduction into the Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club. Duke and Gen couldn't be more different but for some reason they work. Very enjoyable story.

Would definitely have been a higher rating if Duke didn't use sex to manipulate Gen all the time, and ignored her telling him no, because "her body was saying yes"

I'm going to keep this review short. I enjoyed the story. I made time to finish it in one sitting and have no regrets. However I will say the transitions between chapters could have been better, they just seemed to stop and pick up wherever. The dialogue wasn't the best, they gave more info than a person normally would. An element between Gen and Duke didn't play into the story at all. And it carried on a for a while after what I felt was the climax. I kept waiting for something more exciting to happen but it never did. But I did like the story and would recommend it.
