Finn's Fury

Riot MC Biloxi #8

by Karen Renee

The night my cousin invites me to a party at the Riot MC compound, I discover a world like no other. The Riot MC clubhouse is the first place I feel safe. These bikers protect each other, but they are fierce when protecting their women.

I want their protection so bad. It is a driving, vehement need.

Finn is the one brother I avoid. We had a wild and crazy weekend together. I thought we connected. His actions say I thought wrong.

When he corners me at a party to explain those actions, everything changes. He’s still the only brother who sees me differently. He sees me as his.

The moment Finn discovers I’m being abused, he demands answers. His fury is overwhelming. When he finds out my father is behind the violence, he thinks the solution is simple.

Nothing is ever simple in my life.

He’s determined to keep me safe at any cost, but it could cost us our lives.

This was another great read in this ongoing series. We loved the characters Finn and Riley made a great couple their chemistry was awesome and we loved that Riley put her trust in Finn enough to trust him with her problems.

Riley a woman in between a rock and a hard place and you understood her fears as her situation was complicated. Finn is a character who gets down to business and is straightforward and blunt about what he wants and we loved that about him the most. This story was also filled with spice and hot and sexy scenes.

We enjoyed being on Riley Finn's ride it was emotional and sad their story had ups and downs and was full of surprises and a perfect ending. We loved it.

Fantastic!!

The Riot MC series have all be five star reads for me and Finn’s story is no different. This author isn’t afraid to hit on some hard topics and do it with grace and understanding. It deals with abuse and trauma and brings out a hero in this storyline.

Finn will stop at nothing when he sees that Riley is suffering which made this book so hard to put down. With everything happening I rooted so hard for this couple to find a HEA and make not only this book but the rest in this series books I highly recommend.

If you’ve read other books by this author you are already familiar with Finn and Riley. However, you are not aware of how badly Riley needs the MC club as her safe haven. **TW** there is abuse happening and that is where she can go to feel safe and secure and know that even if she miss steps, the brothers and her cousin usually have her back. Finn wants more with Riley, but he honestly cares for her and doesn’t want to just be “the guy who was available” because she’s made her intentions clear.
This book has spice, drama, trauma, abuse, misuse of power, and a brotherhood that will always have your back.

Finn’s Fury was a refreshing change compared to other MC novels. Finally, we get to see a club bunny go down the road of becoming an old lady. Both Finn and Riley are stubbornly independent so it makes for a very enjoyable read on how they have to learn to deal with each other from an entirely new perspective. And don’t forget the added benefit of off the charts chemistry and interactions.

Finn, I want one of my own now. This book had me falling for Finn quickly. The way he was so protective made me feel safe. Really enjoyed this one.

[Susan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Finn's Fury is another great book in the Riot MC universe that tackles a sensitive topic with care and consideration. Riley is a sweetbutt for the Riot MC in Biloxi. Her cousin is a member and the club house has become her safe space. With an over controlling father and a brother who needs her care, she is desperate for an escape. Finn and Riley had a few nights together a while ago but he seemed to withdraw afterward so Riley thought he'd lost interest. When Riley shows up at the clubhouse with a black eye, Finn realizes that he wants to protect her from everything, if only he can earn her trust.

Trying not to hit any major spoilers, this is a great story of a woman learning to trust after years of living with a narcissistic abuser and a man willing to do whatever it takes to keep her safe, without taking away her choices. Riley and Finn have great chemistry and Finn seems to have a great understanding of how to deal with someone with psychological trauma. I really love how he balances his need to protect with his desire to build up Riley's confidence. I really enjoyed that this book has a lot of the Riot brothers and their significant others making appearances. Add in Finn and Riley's families and the cast of characters really furthers the plot and makes the idea of family expand beyond blood.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a well written MC series! This book is a standalone novel in the interconnected Riot MC Biloxi series. You can jump in at any point in the series, but you will get more out of it if you start at the beginning and work your way through.

I promise, Riley is nothing that you’ve expected or thought or guessed. I mean, sure, she’s been part of the problem in the past, but her motives are crystal clear, as is her true wish. Not just any wish, either. Nope. Finn was always her true hope, but he seems to hate her. But Finn is a bit of an enigma also, so get ready for the ride of Riley’s life.

We all knew that Finn would be all-in once he figures out what he wants, right? If you didn’t, you should. Because this guy does not mess around when he decides he’s done with his snit and the game of Riley avoiding him. He steps into her business and steps up in a huge way, even going up against some of the people he admires most when it seems that support could be withheld. And Riley is proving to be quite the woman. Learning her past, her present, and exactly what she plans for her future when unexpected luck shines on her says a lot about her character.

These two are perfectly matched. They communicate, they give and take, and they support and love above all else. Who wouldn’t want something like that? They also both know how to protect others, so it’s just perfect that they end up together. I promise.

I am such a huge fan of this series, and out of everyone to get the next book, Riley was the last person I thought would even get one. But I went with it, dove right in to see just what we would get. I will tell you this wasn't an easy subject matter, and for some this may be too much and need a trigger warning. Finn has wanted Riley since they had an amazing two days over a year ago, but seeing as Riley is a bunny and willing to give anyone a taste, Finn has steered clear. When Riley gives him a little insight into her story, he decides that this is not only his chance to see if what they had was just a good time but also to keep her safe and try and help her with her problem. Will Riley use her last chance wisely or will she blow it?

This was for me just ok. Maybe it's because I didn't care for Riley to start with that I didn't connect with her, IDK I just wasn't feeling her. Her story was heartbreaking, and I completely understood some of her reasoning for things she had done. Expect loads of drama, violence, a bit of danger, and some nice naughty bits. I give this 4 stars.

Riley and Finn’s story is one this reader has been waiting for. These two seemed like the perfect pair, until they weren’t. Both being too stubborn to find out what’s going on with the other one. Month’s later Finn’s had enough and seeks her out. But when he sees her with a black eye and moving slowly, he sees red and is determined to find out what happened. But Riley is determined to keep Finn and the club in the dark as she doesn’t want anyone at the club caught in the middle of her nightmare - Especially Finn. The clubhouse has become her only safe place to hide out, even if just for one night at a time.

This is an amazing, heartfelt read. The author gave us a wonderful storyline that grabbed this reader in the heartstrings. Riley’s strength, the protection of her brother and the love she has for Finn, the club brothers broke my heart at times and had me soaring at others. I can’t recommend Finn’s Fury and all the Riot MC Books enough. Grab them up asap, if you haven’t already, and enjoy - you won’t be sorry you did so.

Riley's on her last chance to be welcome at the clubhouse. She's done some things she's not proud of, but the clubhouse is her safe space. She goes there to escape her life and she feels safe there. When Finn sees a bruise on her, he won't stop until he finds out who gave her the bruise. However, that one bruise leads Finn and the club into a dangerous situation. Riley tries to keep them from truth and tragedy of her life, but Finn is determined and continues to push her.

Finn and Riley had a weekend together and the steam was off the charts, but then life happened and it took them months to come back together see if that one weekend was a fluke or if there was actually something there. When they finally talk and open up, things finally start to move along and they let nature take it's course and their relationship blossoms. I have enjoyed the Riot MC books and Finn's Fury doesn't disappoint. It has the suspense, danger, tragedy, and steam of the rest of the books. I'm looking forward to Mensa's book next.

Finn & Riley

She was one of the club girls who created issues. One who wanted to be an ole lady. Brothers didn't claim bunnies. Still, the time they'd had together seemed to mean more but he ignored her until--she snuck in and Finn saw her black eye. "Who did this," he demanded. She wouldn't talk but it was the beginning of a chance for them. His club didn't abuse women or stand for men who did. Finding out who and why brought out his protective side. The side that saw the real Riley.

My favorite MC romances include the brothers protecting as well as loving their women. The old ladies are a great group. They aren't real troublemakers as some girl gangs are but they are supportive and accepting.

Steam. Intrigue. Loyalty. Vengence, and so much more. The author once again brings us a Riot of a book.

Oh man...I felt for Riley in this one. I was glad that what she was hiding came out and that she quickly had the support of Riot and most especially Finn. I will say I wasn't sure about them as a couple at first. They had a fantastic weekend a year ago, then nothing, yet each sort of pined for each other, but didn't make a move. Then this happens and Finn claims Riley...bam! Seemed odd, but I just went with it.

It was interesting to see all the members of Riot react to learning what Riley had been hiding and how all of them stepped in to help. Yet, even with all of that Riley was still scared, scared that her bully would hurt those she cared about and that her life would be back to the awful. While it got a bit dicey towards the end, things happen in a way that Riley is now free of everything and can live her life how she wants and that is with Finn at her side, with Riot right there too.

Finn & Riley meet up at an MC party which leads to some serious fun, unfortunately, he doesn't act great in the aftermath so she thinks that's it. However, once he learns about her life situation, he's determined to protect her & get her out of the dangerous situation, and maybe, he'll be able to get her to actually give them a chance since they're perfect for each other. I love this MC so much, and Karen Renee is a go to author for me since her stories always provide everything that I love in my books. There's the emotional aspect with a kicker of heat of course, then the suspense that brings the twists in hot to keep me guessing, and the supporting cast always adds in some perfect place humor to keep me laughing as well. Finn's Fury is another story from a brilliantly addictive author that was easy to devour in one sitting while leaving me craving more so yeah, I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

[Christine Woinich · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this one, didn't want to put it down. There were quite a few dark places, triggers, and such that some may find hard to read. Riley lived with abuse because of family and fear. She had moments when she escaped and found safety and home with the Riot MC. Her past within the club was not a good one, but she had one last chance. Finn had eyes only for Riley, although both of them misunderstood some of the situations that kept them apart. Finn noticed her bruises and decided to protect her with help from all of his brothers. Riley was lacking in self-confidence, but I loved that she was willing to step out of her comfort zone. Finn made her his almost immediately and was very protective and patient. There was plenty of action and steam. Loved it.

I received a copy through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.

[Wendy Livingstone · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the 8th book in this phenomenal series, and this is Finn and Riley’s story.
Riley has had a tough life with an over controlling father, and a brother who needs her, but she finds solace at the MC, and when Finn discovers she is being abused, he will do whatever he must to protect and keep her safe.
This is a well written action packed, emotional roller coaster, with family, friendships, loyalty, suspense, danger, intrigue, drama, trauma, secrets, combustible and undeniable chemistry, revelations, and love, which leads to an entertaining, heartfelt, haunting, twisted, unpredictable, tragic, and steamy addictive page turner.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

Finn and Riley had an explosive weekend together in the past but due to various reasons nothing further happened. One day, when Riley turns up at the MC with injuries, Finn turns on his protective mode and that marks a new phase in their relationship.

I really hated what Riley and her brother had to go through in their childhood. I loved how Finn stepped up to helped her but still allowed her to fight her own battles. She is strong, but never alone.

The found family vibes were strong here and I liked how the Riot family stepped in to help Riley, despite past transgressions. Above it all, I loved Finn for treating her right —it’s always great to have a boyfriend who can cook. 😉

I am a huge fan of this author after discovering her last year. So much so, that I binge read this series, even though its not part of KU. I was looking forward to this book. Sadly, it was not my favorite. The writing style seemed off, it didn't flow the way that previous booms had, I didn't connect with the characters the way that I normally do, and the dialogue felt stilted and even backward at times.I'm going to hope that this was just a one off and not a sign of what is to come.

Still a huge fan of this author and am looking forward to what comes next.

[Shannon Godwin · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely love this book! The one brother you stay away from is the one who would do anything to protect you. Misunderstandings, unexpected family situations leads these two apart. But when she shows up with a black eye he’s the first to jump head first. Can miscommunications be undone? Can these two forgive each other? Will he be able to save her? This book is filled with so much action and drama. It will break your heart then put it back together. I absolutely could not put it down.

Riley and Finn had a weekend together then he was patched into the Riot and he ghosted her, he had a reason but she didn’t find out until two years later when he found her with a black eye and he told her his true feelings for her, her father was abusing her but he was a prominent member of the public and nobody would believe her, Finn and the Riot try to remedy that. Fantastic story loved it

Riley is the protective sister of Jonah. Finn is a member of the Riot MC. They share an incredible weekend, but Riley pulls away due to issues at home. Upon finding out what Riley has been through the past is forgotten and Riley finds she has people who truly cafe for her. I loved seeing Riley and Finn come together and I couldn't be happier with the way their story ended.

Finn and Riley...this is the first book I have read from this author, so you can just jump in and not be lost. I do think after reading other reviews, that I'm glad I haven't read the others in the series since I got to come in with no pre-conceived notions of Riley as a club bunny. I think I wouldn't have been so sympathetic to her if I had.
