Cain
I was a fool to believe that my club and fighting meant everything to me.
One look at London Layla Traverson and she proved me wrong.
 
She’d changed so much with time, but that cool blue gaze gave her away.
She was still mine and she always would be.
 
London
Seeing Cain again swept me off my feet, but my happiness didn’t matter.
My best friend was in trouble and I knew what was coming for her.
I had to get to Tennessee and help her, even if it meant leaving my love behind.
 
No one had any idea that I had a secret of my own.
A secret that meant Cain would be mine, forever.

A secret that was big enough to change our lives .."

Just when I thought it didn't get hotter than a Mafiya member .. enter Cain .. the BIKER. I adored Cameron in the last book and was looking forward to reading about London and him. Talk about #SHOCKER .. was not expecting that! The characters were well written and I loved reading about familiar faces *COUGH* my book boyfriend from Secrets! Compared to the first novel, I found I loved that one more as opposed to the second. I'm looking forward to the next one and can't wait to see what the ever so talented Sapphire Knight has in store.

I'm thinking I need to move to Texas! I'm serious...if bikers in Texas are anything like what's described in this book, then I need to start packing immediately!!!

Exposed by Sapphire Knight is my very first MC book I've read. And since finishing it, I want to scold myself for taking this long to read one! Once again, Sapphire Knight blew me away with another sexy, suspenseful, heartbreaking, and enticing story. I absolutely LOVED this book...5 Sizzling-Stars!!!

In Exposed, the story has multiple POVs. It follows the twisted love triangle between London, Cameron, and Cain. Now, I'm not a big fan of love triangles. There's just something that does not sound appealing to me about them. But Exposed is not your typical love triangle. The story focuses on wants and needs...what wants to be done, and what needs to be done; needing to do what is right, but not wanting to.

Secrets slowly introduces you to the mafia. But Exposed throws you head first into the MC world. The author sure knows how to make dangerous characters undoubtedly, and sinfully sexy! And I want to become friends with each of the women in her books! There's comedy, lust, friendship, loss, love, betrayal, and loyalty in this story, I didn't want it to end.

I don't like revealing spoilers in my reviews, whether the book was an ARC or was released years ago. This book is pushing that boundary! So I will end with this before I start giving away too much....the conflicts between want and need in the story aren't necessarily bad. Maybe what you want, is exactly what you need.

If you have a love for MCs, danger, smokin'-hot men, and stunning heroines...then Exposed is a MUST READ! Highly recommended!

I had a much harder time getting into this book than Secrets. I really liked Secrets. I think part of the problem was I am just not that big of a fan of London. Second, this book was pretty much just sex. Personally, thats not really why I read so that might not be bothersome to you as a reader! (I'm a prude, I admit it!). Both London and Cain were pretty slutty with other people which was just odd to me. They didn't cheat when they were together, so that was good. Overall, I think this is a good book, but perhaps just not for me. Will I keep reading the series? Yep! I'm a little hesitant of the next book since I really didn't care for Avery but hopefully I will like her a bit more! I also think I like the mafia stuff better than the MC stuff. Maybe thats why I haven't liked this book as much.

Exposed.... How to explain the way this book made me feel.... I was so Excited to read this book, but with the excitement was a wealth of nervousness and trepidation. I knew there was going to be twists and turns, and someone was going to be EXPOSED. But what happened never even entered my mind!

London is a free spirit...

Cain is a badass biker...

Cam is trying to make it in the Mafia...

What happens next will blow your mind!

I can’t say much without giving to much away, but this love triangle is something else! I don’t normally read books with a love triangle unless I know there is an HEA for all. But this one, grabbed me by my proverbial balls and wouldn’t let go! I couldn’t stop reading no matter how pissed I got at a certain character, I just had to keep going! And boy am I glad I did!

We get to explore so many things in this book and the secondary characters are amazing! Ares, 2 Piece, Capone, and my personal fav TWIST!!

I cannot wait for not only the next in this series but anything Sapphire writes! She is most certainly on my autobuy list now! Though with Secrets she already was but this book cemented!

Now a word of warning, I STRONGLY recommend you read Secrets first because it will make certain things in this book make more sense.

Exposed was off the charts awesome for me!!!
I was given this book because Sapphire loves me (That’s what I choose to believe anyway) and also for an honest review ;)

10 amazing stars from NADBB!!!!! #INeedTwistNow

This story is EVERYTHING!!!!!!! Raw. Gritty. Sexy. Real. Cain is THE man! Rough. Rugged. Sexy. Pure unadulterated alpha male! This is a fast pace read but so well written and so worth the damn read!

Sapphire hid Cain and London's relationship so well in Secrets, Book 1! Who knew the depth of their relationship? Hell I didn't have a friggin clue! Kudos to Sapphire for playing the game so brilliantly! I was a little salty with London bouncing between two men but quickly learned Cameron was something to do and made sense for the most part. He was Tate's best friend. He was cute. Fun. I was devastated to learn Cameron's true role in the story, however. Shiesty lil sucker, that Cameron! Cameron definitely didn't deserve London or the baby. I was relieved to learn the baby belonged to Cain.

I am so impressed Exposed presented its own separate story for Cain and London! Their story did not end on a cliffhanger as so many stories are adopting now! This book is awesome as part of a series or a stand alone. I love Secrets but I adore Exposed! This story is a must read! Prepare to fall head over heels in love with Cain and London!

At the end of Secrets we meet Cain and I wasn't sure what to think of him. In the beginning of Exposed, we go back in time and find out how London knows Cain. I quickly liked Cain and the rest of the characters. I don't want to give to much away so I will just say that I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next. I can tell you that I have become a fan very quickly, I read both, book 1 and 2 in two days. I'm excited to see what Sapphire gives us next!

russian mafia & an MC ...... yes please!!!

I loved the second installment of this series. While this book mainly focuses on London. Cain. & Cam, we still get Emily & Tate. This book was amazing, had suspense, little angst & a dirty talking biker.
Can't wait for book 3. Avery & 2 Piece.

I loved this book. This continues after Secrets and has both MC and Mafia. The two together is my favorite kind of book.

Before London came out to Tennessee to help save Emily she had been in a pretty serious relationship with a biker. Someone she knew back in middle school who had moved away. When she told him, without any notice, that she was going to Tennessee and not sure if she was coming back they got into a fight and haven't talked since.

Now that everything with Emily is settled down and London is dating Cam, she is even calming down... not being her normal wild child. Cam is sorta controlling. After a big fight she takes over Emily's old apartment. Good thing too since the love of her life is in town for business and wants to see her. Funny thing is she has been hanging around with the Mafia people and that is who the MC is in town for. She also has a big secret that she is hiding. It won't be that way much longer but how does she break it to him? What kind of business dealings do the MC have with the Russian mob?

Come on now. Where are all my MC peeps? How come no one told me about this author before now?? I have binge read the whole series at this point. Cain and London made me fall in love with the Oath Keepers. And I just kept on going!

The Oath Keepers are 1% ers so be prepared for the outlaw brotherhood mentality. Loved everyone in the club so far. Lots of characters. And London---she can hold her own for sure.

Grab this series!!!

Overall Rating: 4.25 Rockin’ ★★★★
This is a new take on the combining of two different types of romance, Mafia and MC. Sapphire Knight's, Exposed is definitely a must read for all romance readers. She pulls you into her unique world and continues to entertain you throughout the entire story. This book oozes sexy, smoldering alpha males and beautiful smart, gutsy women. Once you mix that together you have the second book in Sapphire Knight’s, Russkaya Mafiya series.

Cain and London were made for each other. Their chemistry jumps off the page and wraps around you. Cain is a member of the Oath Keepers MC. He is the club's fighter and is sex on legs. He knew London from school and secretly had a crush on her when he was younger. London is the bombshell beauty with brains. She moved to Tennessee to help Emily and ended up leaving Cain in the process.

This story is told from different perspectives and you get an overall positive feeling because of it. The main characters are enjoyable and addictive to read about. I thoroughly loved the banter and humorous wit exchanged between the "brothers" and London. She was seamlessly woven into her role as an Ole Lady.

Hero: 4 stars
Heroine: 4 stars
Steam: 4 stars
Plot: 4 stars
Cliffhanger: No

Would I recommend this book: Yes! If you enjoy sex, humor, feisty women and hot alpha males this is a book you need to read!

Would I recommend this author: Yes! This was a happy addition to my growing library and I look forward to the next book from Sapphire Knight to add to it!

Sapphire Knight is an extremely talented writer and it shows in this story. One of love and betrayal. London and Cain find themselves in love after finding each other once again years after going to school together. But London’s life calls her back home all too soon. Time goes by and Cain, London and the Russian Mafia come together in a way no one saw coming

Exposed is the 2nd book in the Russkaya Mafiya/Oath Keepers MC Novel and my god is it a good book!

I was lucky enough to get an ARC in exchange for a honest review so that's what your gunna get.

This book is good, no scratch that - its awesome!

Cain - Hot Bad ass alpha biker with a dirty mouth and tenancy for getting what he wants...

London - Sassy, tatted brunette who knows what she wants

Cameron - College guy trying to make his name known in the Mafia

You see, Cain & London are old pals, like back in school pals and then Cain goes away and is not seen from again until that fateful day in the supermarket when they bump in to each other again..sparks fly & innuendos are thrown and before you know it, they are hooking up with the most intense sex ever!

After a few months, London has to leave to go help her friend out so she comes to says goodbye as she was passing by, Cain does not take it well that she is leaving and they part on bad terms...

Fast forward a few months and during that time London is hooking up with her best friend Emily's boyfriend Tate's best friend Cameron (CONFUSING LMAO!), which is going OK, until Cain comes back on to the scene... however in the mean time London finds out some life changing news which can make or break relationship and friendships.

What will happen? Will it be Cameron who London chooses? Or will Cain come out on top? Or Will the secret that is burdening London be exposed?

Man, I am not one for love triangles but I Love this book - i enjoyed the angst, the humor, the MC Guys as well as the Mafia aspect - I Just Loved it!

Bring on the next book in the series Relinquish!

Cain can get my motor running any time...


This is the second book that I've had the opportunity to read from Sapphire Knight and I am not disappointed. While this is not a true continuation from her previous book Secrets, it does have a couple of characters in it that you should read about before reading this book - though with that being said I guess you could almost consider it a stand alone as it deals with a whole new story. While reading this I was reminded a little bit of SOA - Cain has a certain swagger to him and you really can't beat a boy with tatts and a bike. I will say I wasn't too keen about how he acquires his nickname, but I can understand that this will probably be a big part of the MC culture.

I have mixed feelings about Cam - on one hand he seems like a nice guy but then he'll flip and become too demanding. I'm about alpha males but something about his demeanor sort of turns me off. I guess I was hoping that London would have stayed with Cain, they seem to have a more natural chemistry. It was a really good story - believable characters and I'm glad that they got their HEA. If you enjoy hot tattooed up bikers who have an underlying heart of gold beneath their cut then this is the book for you.


I read this basically in one sitting. That's how much I enjoyed this book. I became immersed in their world and didn't want to come out. Who needs sleep when there's a hot and horny over-protective alpha biker wanting to fall in love instead?

The Russkaya Mafiya/Oath Keepers series is literally a melodrama in a book series from!

There is literally so much drama, so much betrayal and so much secrets in each novel and EXPOSED has twice as much drama as SECRETS!

EXPOSED is really a mind-changing novel. The people I love from SECRETS is literally all so different in EXPOSED! Tate and Emily is still the same and honestly, if it’s even possible, I am most definitely shipping this couple together so much and TATE IS MY LOVE!

London is such a wild cat! There is not one person who can do anything to tame her and her personality isn’t to take any kind of crap from anyone. Not even Cameron or Cain.

I admit, I wasn’t too happy on seeing Cain in SECRETS but in EXPOSED? I was only too happy that London had him! Seriously, it was torturous seeing the characters you love change.

SECRETS was more of a love story. EXPOSED is that and so much more drama! It’s rather entertaining and not to forget, humorous!

Highly recommended for all readers!

London has come to Emily's aid but no one knows about Cain and his story. I love London as she is full on and knows what she wants. She is so sassy and a really nice person she will drop everything to help a friend and that is what happened with Cain. London & Cain were good together and she got to meet his 'brothers' and she was happy being with Cain what is not to like he is a biker & has tatt's all over and he is mean fighter.He cares deeply for London he has had a crush on her since school so he is very upset when she leaves him. London gets involved with Cameron he is Tate's friend but he wants to control her and she is happy with the situation until she finds out that she is pregnant. Cameron hits the roof and London moves out. Cain is in town on club business and they get together and the sparks are still there. London doesn't know how to tell Cain that she is pregnant but things change once she goes for an ultrasound. Can things work out for London & Cain? Cameron is still a prick and he is playing with fire as he has gone behind Tate's back. Things do have a way of working out but for who? Great read awesome characters can't wait to the next one

Explosive Exposé

You must read SECRETS which is book one to get the full scope of this triangle. This book blew my mind. From page one we see the relationship between London and Cain before she went to help her friend Emily and hooked up with Cameron. London and Cain's relationship was an all consuming kind of love one that actually started in the sixth grade and neither wanted to say anything to the other. When London leaves we see that Cain struggles to move on. Fast forward and you notice that London and Cameron's relationship is slowly falling apart due to the fact that she's not over Cain and he's not ready for a real relationship just sex. Cain pays London a visit and we see that they still love each other but London's secret might be their breaking point. Once her secret is EXPOSED you're taken on a journey so filled with twist and turns that you think you know what happens next and then BOOM the tables are turned. The writing flowed off the pages so flawlessly that you're help captive until the end. This series and these characters wraps you in so much suspense that it leaves you intrigued and anxiously anticipating the next book. Kudos Sapphire for a well told story.

London runs into Cain, school-acquaintances back in the day.
Now things are different. Now all grown up, matured, consenting adults. .
A few romps later,London flees to warn Emily about her psycho-ex.
Cain not being too happy, both part ways horribly.
London reacquaints herself with Emily’s life & lives it to the fullest.
With Cameron. These two get cozy & more serious than ever before…
A chance trip for Cain brings these two full circle which is nothing but a big cluster f***!
London has a huge secret, Cameron’s distancing himself further once it’s out in the open.
Cain is there to pick up the pieces and man up. He’s a great heartfelt guy. Wears his emotions on his sleeves where London’s concerned.
When alls exposed, comes full circle who will be left standing in the dust? Alone?
Exposed was my favorite in this series so far. Can’t wait for Relinquish #3!

I had the privilege of reading an ARC, and I'm here to give my honest review.
Well, I can honestly say the Authors work continues to get better and better.

London is the fiery fun loving, honest knows what she wants out of life kinda girl, and goes for it.

Cain is this Hot Alpha Male who is loyal, trustworthy to his club, loves his bike and London turns his world upside down.

Cam, This is a man on a mission, working hard at being pulled into the Mafia world and wants to have London by his side as for she makes the perfect old Lady.

This story has twists and turns that suck you in page for page. Sapphire has done a great job with the love triangle and this is one not to miss. Grab today you won't be disappointed.

Cain, how do I describe him? Hot, sexy, hardly any patience when.his woman is driving him.mad, "you grab my as** one more effin’ time, and I’m droppin’ those panties right here and effin’ you in front of everybody,” I growl out." I love that he spoils his woman especially when she gives him good news, "I nod and spread her legs. My baby deserves a treat with the news she just gave me." Cain may come off as a harda** but that man is sweet, and knows how to take care of his woman, "you can have whatever you want, sweet cheeks. But why are you starving? You didn’t have a snack?” I swear I need to spank this girl a few times so she eats more." I loved this book there were some surprises and wtf moments but that's what makes this series great, that and the characters are lovable.

This is a stand alone book however for it to make sense you will need to read the first book in the series Secrets

OMG where do I even begin!!!! I knew that Cam was up to no good but I didn't see that coming!!! This is the second book in the series and it blew my mind. I loved the fact that Sapphire blended the MC with the Mafia which is my two favorite genres....can we say holy amazeballs!!!

I liked how we got to see POV from London, Cain & Cam...I liked getting the different perspectives and how they all tie into the story. I would highly recommend this book and the series. Sapphire writes some pretty stellar stories and she is my new favorite author to follow. I can't wait to see what is next in the series!

Another amazing book Sapphire....well done!!

Exposed is book 2 in the series. This one is a little different to book 1 as this one isn't just centered around the mafia its also about the oath keepers mc. I haven't ever read another series of books that combines the two like these do.

Exposed centers around Emily from Book 1's best friend London and the two men she finds herself torn between, Cameron and Cain.

I really enjoyed this book as I knew I would, it was a combination of two genres and boy did it work! The twists and turns kept me guessing and I found myself not wanting to put the book down.

If you loved book 1 keep going through the series, they get better and better....

I have offically become obsessed with Sapphire Knight. These 2 books i have read in this series have blown me away. Not only did i get Mafia but in comes the Oath Keepers MC. This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole times. I didnt know what to expect between each page. I experienced every emotion in this book. Def will continue on with the series and I cant wait to read everything this author writes i have become addicted from 2 books.
