In the third installment of Jade Chandler's down-and-dirty Jericho Brotherhood motorcycle club series, two hard cases deny the beyond-carnal bond that forms between them…until it's almost too late

When we f*ck I forget my name, but I never planned to love her.

I never thought I'd make her my old lady.

From our very first scene, we've been fighting for control. She's the one woman who can bring me to my knees, make me beg. Make me feel.

Now I need to give it all up to save her.

Fury is my weapon when I confront the enemies bold enough to lay hands on my gorgeous Marr. Raw rage is what's fueling my fight against the ones who want to end everything the Brotherhood stands for.

We're on the brink of war and I will burn this club to the ground before I let them hurt my woman again.

From my youngest days, I have attempted to be an author writing stories about cartoon characters, which turned into stories of teens as I became a teen myself, and then romances.

A true-believer in happily ever after, romance has always held the number one place on my book shelf, and now my tablet. I enjoy escaping to new worlds and meeting all kinds of people who live in the imagination of others. Now that I have brought my imaginary world to life, I find I cannot write fast enough to bring those ideas to you.

For me, erotic romance offers a gritty, close intimacy that let's readers explore dark emotions and taboo desires, although today, I love that more and more diverse definitions of happily ever after are accepted in our world. It is the dark intimacy that draws me to read and now write erotic romance,

Great addition to the series. Heavy BDSM elements and dark themes done in a way that pays respect to them. Great character development.

Deny was the third book in the Jericho MC series by Jade Chandler. We finally get Jericho's story and it was written partially coinciding with Release, the second book of the series.

Isaac "Jericho" was the current President of the Jericho MC series. He became President when he forced his father out of the club. He had a difficult life with the absence of love his entire existence. He ruled with an iron fist. He was an alpha Dom.

Maurine "Marr" O'Leary was the Irish fireball that was a Dom at Bond, the BDSM club that was owned and run by the Jericho MC. Marr had a legendary temper and the sparks flew anytime she was around Jericho.

Deny was told in a double POV. It was a tough story with a dark and abusive theme. Deny focused more on the MC interaction then demonstrated in past books. Although disturbing at times, it was suspenseful and page turning. It was also heavy on the BDSM.

I liked the back story the most. There was chaos and turbulence within the MC that was the focal point of the story. It came to a head; however, there was quite a bit of carryover that could compliment future books in the series easily.

Although I liked Marr and Jericho and loved their chemistry; I equally disliked them. At times they seemed unemotional and robotic. Chandler explained the reasoning behind it, but I was craving more.

All in all, the story kept me hooked on each page. I ultimately gave it a 3.5 rating, rounded to a 4 on this review site. Although nothing has been announced yet, I'm hopeful we will have more books in the series. The MC storyline still has several holes that I would love to see concluded. The MC was finally getting on the right path and rebuilding so there are several directions the series can take.

Deny is the third book in the Jericho Brotherhood series by Jade Chandler. I really love MC series and this a good one combining hot sexy bikers and a bit of kink. Well in this book more than a bit ;-) Marr is a Domme who has had enough of men and Jericho is a Dom or at least, he used to be one untill he made a mistake in the past. Determined not to love anymore and keep his dominant side hidden he thinks he can have fun with Marr without getting attached but we all know how that goes huh? You can deny as much as you want but what’s meant to be, will happen! Anyway this was a great MC romance with lots of kink and some suspense. I loved reading them and look forward to read more in this series or from this author.

Fire meets gasoline.

No truer statement has ever been made when it comes to Jericho and Marr.

a few warnings to start this review off.

- This story is heavily centred around hardcore BDSM e.g, whipping and canes.

- This story does involve other people in the bed though consensual between the pair and no cheating I know this is very much a hard limit for some people when reading.

- This is an MC story so it does involve violence and some rather disturbing scenes from the past which can effect some.


Now we have that out the way....

THIS REVIEW MAY CONTAIN MINOR SPOILERS SO PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS BEFORE YOU READ ON.




As I mentioned in my previous review, I really appreciate how authentic/original this author is. This is not your typical MC story. These stories lean heavy on the BDSM side, it is not you typical love story. The club is not what you'd think a brotherhood is meant to be(at least not yet.) so many betrayals and deceit between brothers you can't tell who's friend or foe. You cannot trust 99%of the brothers. Changes are trying to be made but some do not like change nor do they like their leadership. Progress is slow but nothing is ever smooth sailing.

I craved this book after reading Release book 2 from this author.


Jericho is a hard character to write about because until you read him you won't understand.
I equally loved and hated him. He's a hard man to love. He arrogant, self assured, broken and a all round asshat on times. He's right on top of the dominant scale and a master in all things pleasure and pain. His past haunts him to this day and affects his life deeply. While he's a hard man to love he's also very hard not to love.(I did warn you I wouldn't make sense!). He does have rules he lives by and while he's a manipulative hard ass he also believes in loyalty and honesty. He doesn't believe in harming women in a non consensual way. He protects those under his control. He's trying to make change but the combination of others not cooperating and his own demons stopping things going forward is making it hard. He's an enigma. He doesn't add up, his words and actions sometimes don't make sense. But underneath all that crazy is a loyal loving man willing to do anything for you. And he does prove that after he fucks things up first. He will never be labelled as sweet. It's not in his dictionary. He will never be labelled soft.... I honestly don't think that mans ever met soft. But he's all man and in the end, though he's not all good... the good outways the bad.

Marr has to be one of my most favourite heroines ever. I was gagging for her. She again is a total enigma. I'm in no way disappointed. She's very much on top on the dominant scale to. Again a master at both pain and pleasure being a mistress is not just a lifestyle for her. That her personality that her to a t!. She commands attention when she walks in the room. She's sassy, fierce and could drop a man in both please and pain. She's bisexual and has swore off cock because they cause nothing but pain and disappointment. Something about Jericho set her on fire though. Her transition from mistress to old lady was not easy, she has to battle every natural instinct to accept that lifestyle and the reality of her not being at the top of the food chain. She had her moments of pure bitchyness and unnecessary drama which I expected. But she also had really great defining moments. She doesn't have a great past but she's definitely rocking her future!.

Together they were a bomb waiting to go off. The power play between the pair was so fascinating to read. I was extremely surprised that the only time the fact that they were both dominants became an issue was when she first became an old lady and was staying at the club. Together they're chemistry was off the charts and to be fair they worked together seamlessly both in the bedroom and dungeon. I was shocked at how well matched they were considering how dominant they both are. Outside of that wasn't always so seamless.

The side characters were definitely an important part of this story but again some of them leave something to be desired. The storyline was interesting and definitely kept you on the edge with lots of little surprises around the corner.

The author warned me that this would be the most intense yet. She wasn't lieing. There are times you want to throw the kindle, times you shake you head in disbelief. Times were your hanging on the edge waiting for the other foot to drop... and times where you need a quiet 5 to collect your thoughts change you knickers and get your head outa the pheromones. It was a definite rollercoaster but I have to be honest she's got me sold on this series. The character growth throughout is great. It's not perfect but it drags you in and makes you feel like your right there with them. I don't really ask for much outa books I read but I want them to make me feel... this did that and more.

My only small complaint is that I would of liked More of them at the end together happy. To read more about them being solidified happy and crazy would have been delightful. And maybe less dragged suspense... it's not to the point I loose interest but I'm greedy so for me less suspense means more of the happy couple.

I am not sure how I feel about this addition to the series. I had a really hard time getting into the story. It was not the writing or the character development, I think it maybe that I never liked Jericho so I just couldn't really like his story. Plus I don't get into pain. It is not for me and does nothing for me. I can handle restraints and all the other kink, but whips, rods, crops, paddles.....not for me. There is a great deal of kink in the story that is all about pain.

I liked Marr but at times she was just too aggressive. She had a great deal of insecurities. I think we needed a tad more of her backstory to truly love her. She sure knew how to beat the crap out of someone for sure. My girl Avery was involved and I loved her again.

Jericho....still not thrilled with him. He is his arrogant self, but he is fighting for his President title. He does try and set things right.

The plot seemed to drag a tad and there was a ton of sex...a ton. It really picked up at the end and I couldn't put it down. I did have an issue at the end though. I just don't get I love you, but let's have sex with other people. That is just a big no in my book.

So I am really conflicted on how I feel about the whole story. I guess a 3 1/2.

How's come all the bikers I see have beer bellies and receding hairlines? I need to shop where Ms. Chandler goes for inspiration!

As the newly minted Jericho Brothers MC prez, Isaac Jericho worked hard to get his old man out of power and cut the cancer from the club. There's only one more member he's gotta get out, and he needs the help of Mistress Marr at Bound, the MC's sex club. Marr prides herself on her whip wielding skills and her ability to maintain control at all times. She doesn't know whether she can trust the new president, but she does know that the other Dom makes her want a man for the first time in a long time.

The two tentatively agree to a tit for tat exchange, but when sex is on the table, things get crazy for them both. Insatiable, Marr is fierce, ferocious and pretty damn crazy. And Jericho is crazy about her, he knows she'd be the perfect old lady to manage the MC by his side. It's not love, just club politics. Riiiiggghhhht.

She's got her mojo back! After a ho-hum second novel, Ms. Chandler upped her game in DENY, book 3 of the Jericho Brotherhood series. This book is completely unique (for me anyway) in that I've never really read a story about two practicing Doms in a true power exchange. It was real freakin' sexy, ya'll. The scenes where they performed demonstrations at the Masquerade Ball? Aye yae yae! Also I haven't read a lot of stories where the female main character is so truly bisexual. I've read the addition of a woman to an existing MF relationship or dabbling or light play between women, but Marr had a long term relationship with a woman prior to her attraction to Jericho. But the pièce de résistance was the ménage scene, it was such a yummy and unexpected surprise. The storyline was really good too, you never knew where/when/with whom Ren would strike, only that he would and that it would be vicious.

There was a lot of really good in DENY, though the book was quite long and felt like it could get a lot tighter and more streamlined. The one other major downside was the editing. There were errors left and right, too many for my mental red pen to ignore no matter how good this book was.

Bottom Line: No OM/OW; sharing (and it was soooo good); condom use; loads of mild-extreme BDSM/kink; no sexual assault (but some violent sexual encounters that were both erotic and fucked up); violence/murder. - See more at: http://erotic.theromancereviews.com/v...

Holy cow. I've been waiting to read this story since the very beginning. I mean, the series IS called Jericho Brotherhood. But I don't think I was prepared for this one. It was SO much better than I anticipated. You absolutely need to read this series in order to completely grasp the different character dynamics and back story behind all this awesomeness.

Jericho has a problem. Ok. Biggest understatement. He's got multiple problems. His Old Man is finally out of picture, leaving him the Prez of club. But not everyone is happy with the Old Man's departure and Jericho finds himself having to do a lot of damage control. When an opportunity rises that could help him get rid of the rotten seeds in the club, Jericho takes the bait. But he's not prepared for the extra baggage. Nor is he ready to except the fact that this bait is everything he's ever wanted AND needed.

Marr is the Domme at the BDSM club Bound that the Brotherhood runs. She's basically every sadists wet dream. She's hot as hell and can dish out the perfect amount of pain and pleasure, satisfying anyone who's ever had her Masterfulness. But when one of the Brotherhood members starts abusing the girls in the club, Marr not only sees red, she wants blood. Teaming up with the Prez to exile this member becomes little tricky. Especially when her heart gets in the way.

I LOVED this installment. Having the BDSM club as one of main focal points, we're literally thrust in to the erotic world of Doms and Masters. But the piece that pulled me closer is the fact that we're dealing with multiple Masters trying to control each other. And trust me. There are multiple fireworks.

Jericho is forced to step back into a role he swore he'd leave behind. But a Master can never NOT be a Master and boy oh boy, is he ever. Marr is a Domme in every sense on the word. But the way Jericho commands her and her body has her struggling with her "role" within the relationship AND the club. Add in the explosive Brotherhood club drama and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.

Did I mention that I loved this one? OMG! The betrayal, the lust, the passion, the drive for revenge and those damn scenes!!!!! (Sigh) Those. Scenes!!!!!!!! Hot hot hot. Mmmm. Ok, I need to stop. If you haven't made up your mind yet, just pick up this series. Honestly, it's worth every page flipped.

Prepare yourself for a real down and dirty biker story and as grandma always said, “If you can’t stand the fire, stay out of the kitchen”! Besides the “regular” biker violence and debauchery Deny leaned heavily on BDSM. This was also a story about loyalty, friendship, betrayal and finally coming to terms with a past you thought you could outrun. The Jericho Brotherhood is finally headed by the heir apparent after Jericho ousted his old man from the presidency but his other potential sperm donor, Renegade, was still in the wings waiting to take Jericho down. Ah, all the fatherly love in this story is beyond comprehension!

Jericho had been trained as a Master when was a mere prospect but after some sad events that happened he had sworn off the dungeon play along with ever loving a woman again. The “ever loving a woman again” was pretty easy in the biker lifestyle because there were always women there more than willing and ready to help a guy out with whatever they needed. So he thought he had covered all the angles that is until things started going down at one of the brotherhood’s business and that being Bound. Renegade was a sick man who took pleasure in beating and possibly even killing women and now he had turned his wicked desires on the girls at Bound. Marr was the head Master at Bound and vowed to keep her girls safe even if that meant dealing with the barbaric, Jericho.

So, be ready for the ride of your life following Jericho and Marr and all the depraved people from the brotherhood. Alliances form and betrayals surprise you. Is there any chance a love story can come from such a dark place? You’ll have to read to find out and you won’t be disappointed.

I received a copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads

Jericho's book! I love this alpha, male, MC president! He's cunning and conniving and definitely in charge. Still trying to earn the respect of the club he took over from the Old Man, Jericho has a few defectors he's battling that still like the old regime his Old Man nurtured. Having to make sure the girls at the BDSM club, Bound, are safe and taken care of Jericho has to show his face more. But the ability to avoid temptation with his dominate side he swore he'd never indulge in again is hanging on by a thread. Hanging out at Bound puts him right in the path of Marr, the resident Domme. Maurine O'Leary is sex personified, all woman and all Domme, she flips Jericho's swiches. The two battle for dominance and love with a gusto that had me turning to the pages to see the sparks (and sometimes fists since they're both black belts in martial arts) fly. The unrest in the club was intriguing, seeing who was siding with whom and the head games and power plays were plenty. There were some formulaic parts where you know what's going to happen but it was well done enough to keep me reading. I've enjoyed this blending of genres and this was my favorite book so far!

This is the third book in the Jericho Brotherhood series and I have read all three. I highly recommend you read the other two books in this series before picking up this one as I don't feel it can be read as a stand alone.

When I first started to read this book, I actually went and checked that this was in fact the third book in this series and not the first. I struggled with the timing of everything happening in this book. Based on the other two, I assumed the MC had been established and that Jericho wasn't a new president. Then this book comes along and we're reading how he became president and his battle for acceptance. This kind of threw me a little bit.

I didn't like this book as much as I did the other two. While I've always liked Jericho, I struggled relating to Marr. I think more of her backstory was needed especially how she became involved in BDSM (I felt it was glossed over in the book).

Still, a great book with an interesting story line.

Warning: BDSM heavy (cane, whips), multiple partners (consensual) and heavy violence.

Now, when we can we expect Thorn's story?

Deny by Jade Chandler
Jericho Brotherhood #3
A Dark, Romantic Motorcycle Club Romance by Jade Chandler

This is one of those BDSM MC books that you will either love or you should probably avoid. Jericho and Marr are both dominant in and out of their dungeons. Neither wants to be subservient but at times do play the master and behave in ways both inside and outside of the club that will not be acceptable to most but do work within the context of this book. Marr & Jericho find their way eventually but it is not easy going. The characters that are there for one another are solid and wonderful and people I want to know more about and hope to read about them in future books of the series. I could never be Marr or fall for Jericho but together the two are a force to be reckoned with and oh so good together.

Thank you to NetGalley and Carina Press for the ARC. This is my honest review.

This MC romance is not for the faint of heart, it can be dark and twisted, but you do get one hell of a happily ever after at the end. This is a wild ride, perfect for the MC's President, Jericho. To make a man like him fall in love again, it was going to take one hell of a woman, Marr is perfect woman to bring him to his knees. I loved the character details in this one, especially how both the lead characters end up being more vulnerable than you would expect them to be at the end.

Jericho had finally kicked the old man- his- out of the MC his father had built. The old man had tried to get rid of Jericho by giving him the most dangerous assignments but it hadn’t worked. Jericho told the old man he was bad for the club but really he wanted vengeance for Layla. Jericho had swore he would take away all the old man loved and that was the MC. Bear and Dare had helped Jericho bring down the old man. At sixteen Jericho became a full fledged member with his cut.to wear. Jericho was a tattoo artist and he loved his art. Jericho knew he had to rebuild the MC.. He also had to get rid of Renegade who had as much to do with Layla’s death as the old man. First Jericho had to fill in the holes in in his leadership circle. Then he would go from there until he had a plan form. Jericho always had a plan. Jericho had been a master with his own dungeon in the BDSM club bound. He had taken a naive from cheer leading and football games and introduced her to BDSM. Layla had been Jericho first and only love and he sent her away trying to protect and Layla was not even eighteen when she killed herself and Jericho had been barely eighteen. After Layla’s death Jericho had walked away from the sex club and never returned to bound. It had been twelve years but now as Alpha Jericho had to go to the club as renegade and his followers were causing problems. .But Jericho needed proof to get Renegade out of his club and the top mistress at Bound could be the one to help if she would spy on Ren. Now Marr was very angry when one of her girls as she considered all the girls at the club hurts was severely hurt and put in the hospital and Ren had done it but he couldn’t expect her to tell as Ren would go to no ends to find her and finish her life. But Marr said the only way she would go against her ethics as Ren was one of her clients and do this if Jericho came to her dungeon and let her master him. Jericho had no choice but to agree. But Jericho loved the pain as much as he loved being a master and giving pleasure. Then if Jericho submitted to her Marr will tell Jericho all she hears and sees. Jericho did submit to her. Jericho and Marr want each other desperately. Marr had swore off men as they were butts and couldn’t be trusted. Marr and Jericho were both dominate and to give in to each other was dynamic to say the least.
This is a hard book to do a critique on. But I did like like this story. This story was fairly heavy into BDSM using whips and canes.but that did make it a different and even more dark MC story. It wasn’t bad and I understood why Jericho was the way he was but he did want to clean up the MC and make it a better club and more like a family. Because the club was his family. I didn’t like Ren’s character at all but we weren’t suppose to. Somehow Marr and Jericho just work without taking anything from the other. This story was well written with a great plot. Jericho was a broken man and haunted by his past. Either way all and all this was a good story to read. I loved the characters and their strengths and weaknesses and how they interacted. I loved the ins and outs of this story and I recommend. Just know there is a lot of BDSM and scenes around the club Bound. Also this is the third book in the series.

Why yes, I did read the third book in a series before reading the first two... this is not a new thing. Of course it's a thing I don't really recommend, but that's beside the point. In fact, there really isn't a point here, so let's just get down to the review and leave it at that. *sigh*

So... even though Deny was my introduction to the Jericho Brotherhood, I can't say I was confused. Some of the back story would have been nice, but enough blanks were filled in to help along the way. Which means there's no need to panic if you don't pick up Enough or Release first. The only other thing that you need to know before starting this series is that Jade Chandler holds nothing back. This series is raw, angry, violent... in other words, the Brotherhood is not a group you want to mess with - even within the ranks. These guys protect their own and will do it at any cost.

Marr's connection to the Brotherhood was through their sex club. She was as 'alpha' as Jericho, which made things interesting. Needless to say, there wasn't much give and take in their relationship. Marr had a hard time playing by the rules, especially when they weren't exactly spelled out for her. And then there was Jericho. He was about as broken as an alpha male could be, but his attraction to Marr was as hard to fight as it was dangerous for both of them. The danger came from the people who wanted Jericho gone because people he cared about were a weakness. Lucky for them, there wasn't a thing about either Jericho or Marr that was weak.

There were a lot of things about Deny that got under my skin and roamed well beneath my comfort zone. That's okay though, I like books that make me squirm a little. Oh, and in case your curious, Enough and Release are now on my TBR list. ;)

I received Deny in exchange for a fair and honest review.

MC world meets BDSM. Jericho is quite the enigma. He is loyal and honest to a fault, but he is also a very domineering alpha that is set in his ways. He is very hardcore into BDSM, but not violent. What he does, he does with consent and protection (I know, a bit of contradiction of words), but it is how he works. No one will ever call him romantic or soft. Ever.

Marr was very interesting match for Jericho, because they are both so dominant in nature, that you do not see them connecting. But somehow they found a way, through fault and error and a lot of steamy scenes. There was just something that called her to Jericho, but being used to leading her future, it was like water and oil at times with these two.

On top of all that, Jericho is in the throes of rebuilding the MC, knowing some were against his leadership from the start. Marr did not always help matters in regards to the club, but that was mostly because she was trying to find her way.

This was a very interesting story that drew me in from the start. Marr and Jericho had this chemistry that both drew them together and set-off sparks. A great MC book with a bit of dark BDSM thrown in.

So this one is a bit tricky for me to review. It is definitely way outside my normal reading which I didn't realize when I requested a copy so that's on me. In fairness to the author I'm not going to comment on whether I like the story. With that said I thought this story was very well done. The writing was excellent and very descriptive. The characters were well developed, gritty and raw. The story had a nice easy flow to it as well so it had all the things that make for a good book.

This story is set around the MC's Bound operation and it's the story of Jericho and Marr. Both of these characters are intriguing. Jericho is dominant and brutal at times but he believes in loyalty and honesty to a fault. So the troubles within the MC are difficult for him to deal with and his one release is Marr. The fire that burns between these two is intense. There are hard core BDSM elements with whipping and caning at the center of this story. And as would be expected from a MC read there is violence. Overall it's very well done.

This was such a fabulous and erotic story and so different from the traditional MC stories that I read. Jade Chandler really knocked it out of the park and set herself apart from her peers.
While this is the third story in the Jericho Brotherhood MC series, this book can standalone. As the new elected President of the Jericho Brothers MC, Isaac Jericho has to make sure that his club is running smoothly. But when he comes across a problem at Bound, the club's sex club, he requests the help of Mistress Marr to help eliminate the problem. But when two alphas butt heads and sexual chemistry explodes, the repercussions of Marr and Isaac getting together is pure FIRE.

Dealing with their own feelings, their down and deliciously dirty power struggles, problems at Bound and people gunning for Isaac's President seat, this was a very entertaining read. It was also hands down one of the sexiest novels I have ever read. I can't wait to read more books in this series.

I would like to thank NetGalley and Carina Press for a copy of this book for an honest review.

I enjoyed reading Deny #3 in the Jericho Brotherhood series. This book is very steamy and hot the BDSM scenes were really hot. The story was very emotional and gritty the author did a good job on creating the characters and how well the story was created. Deny continues on with the Jericho Brotherhood. We get to read and learn about Marr and Jericho and the rest of the other characters. Marr was kinda annoying at times just wanted to strangle Marr. Loved Jericho he was total alpha male in Deny.

This was my first time reading Jade Chandler and Jericho Brotherhood motorcycle club series and I can say that I wasnt that lost. I know I missed some of the back story when I do this but if I like it I will go back and read the ones I missed and this is one of the series that I will be doing that with. As a new comer to Jade's writing I have to say that she is a no hold barred kind of writer. This book had just about every emotion you would want to feel when you are reading. I dont know if the Brotherhood is based on a real MC but if it is I sure dont want to be on the wrong end.

BOOK BLURB


In the third installment of Jade Chandler's down-and-dirty Jericho Brotherhood motorcycle club series, two hard cases deny the beyond-carnal bond that forms between them…until it's almost too late

When we f*ck I forget my name, but I never planned to love her.

I never thought I'd make her my old lady.

From our very first scene, we've been fighting for control. She's the one woman who can bring me to my knees, make me beg. Make me feel.

Now I need to give it all up to save her.

Fury is my weapon when I confront the enemies bold enough to lay hands on my gorgeous Marr. Raw rage is what's fueling my fight against the ones who want to end everything the Brotherhood stands for.

We're on the brink of war and I will burn this club to the ground before I let them hurt my woman again.

My Thoughts


The definition of Deny is refusing to admit the truth or existence of or a refusal to give or grant something requested or desired to someone.

This definition characterizes the relationship between Jericho and Marr, it also fits in with how Jericho has approached his responsibilities to the MC for the most part.

After having been alternately appalled but also fascinated approached reading Jericho’s story with some reservations already established. However his was the one that also roused my curiosity since the beginning of the series. First because of his position as the current leader of the Jericho Brotherhood and second because so far we have only been told about his past in bits and pieces so was looking for this book to hopefully reveal his character in a way that will make him more relatable to readers, which so far he has fallen short of for me and still does in many ways.

Isaac Jericho is a product of his harsh upbringing. A mother who is in no way nurturing or maternal and a father who thinks might makes right taught him to be careful who he relied upon or trusted.

The MC is now his to command thanks to some judicious maneuvering on his part. This time though the brothers are divided by some wanting the change and others wanting Jericho out. A showdown is in the wind and who will stay and who will go remains to be sorted out, for sure there will be a major shake-up before all is said and done.

Not only does Jericho have to contend with a faction of the MC trying their best to overthrow his leadership, he must also rein in Marr before she causes irreparable damage overstepping her bounds.

Their personal relationship is as chaotic as expected with two such strong willed personalities, neither of which wishes to be dominated in the bedroom or out.

Never a dull moment in any of the books in this series but this story takes us to the next level.

Jade Chandler did an awesome job on this book ! DENY is the third chapter in the Jericho Brotherhood series. The author took us on a gritty tumultuous and emotional journey as she unveiled Jericho in his beautifully flawed perfection. I was totally enthralled from beginning to end.

I really love this series and have devoured each book. This world is crowded with sexy dominant alpha bikers. Dare will always be my favorite but Jericho has been the one character that I just couldn't wait to delve into and Jade Chandler didn't let me down. Starting with the prologue I was able to connect with this wild, wicked manipulative man. He walked a hard road, lived mostly for the Brotherhood and revenge against the people who crossed him. It would take a very strong woman to stand by his side. Marr was strong willed and had an irish temper to match him. Jericho needed her help as much as he wanted the intimidating Domme in his bed. It would take both of these strong willed dominants compromising and accepting their true feelings before their relationship could work. It took a lot of pain before they finally stopped denying their love.

I loved this story. It was filled with suspense and action with most of the drama surrounding Bound, the BDSM club that the club owned. It also had a lot of internal club drama that helped even more to liven up the plot. Nothing was ever as it seemed. My favorite part though were the vivid characters that seemed to come to life in my imagination. Jericho and Marr were so much alike they butted heads constantly. I loved Jericho, but my feelings were mixed concerning Marr. She was confused about her palce and ended up rubbing me just a bit wrong. She kinda had a soft side though and was extremely jealous of Jericho. There were some scenes where I was saying "you go girl". I'm very interested in some of the other sexy bikers like Thorne, Rebel and Viper. I really hope that they get books too, because once I'm this hooked on a series I desperately want to stay in that world.

This book was a fast paced, sexy and suspenseful read that I didn't want to put down. I'd recommend it to everyone, especially those who enjoy biker romance with a twist of naughty. I'm giving it Five Flying Stars !

Finally it is Jericho's story!!! While reading books 1 and 2, I wanted to know more about Jericho so I was excited to read his story.

Jericho and Marr's story was intense which kept me interested, but at the same time both of them are cold which made some parts of the story harder to get through. I was glad to get Jericho's backstory, but I would have liked more of Marr's story. Some details were shared, but not many.

The Jericho Brotherhood books all have kinky sex involved, but I will say there were some pretty intense scenes in this book including some fire play; just a warning for some readers that may not be as into that.

This has been my favorite of the series. It flowed much better than the previous two books. Read more like a novel as opposed to a diary. Although I didn't really like Jericho in the first two books, I learned more about him and his past therefore understood him better. Marr is quite the hard ass and when you put two hard asses together you get a lot of fire. I'm not into BDSM novels so much these days but this one held my attention.

Deny is the third book in the Jericho MC series. Jericho has just outed his father as president of the club and this story revolves around the turmoil of the club as Jericho strives to make it a better club. Marr is a Domme at the BDSM club the MC owns. Sparks fly whenever Jericho and Marr are together and he makes her his old lady. Characters we have come to know and love play a major part in this storyline.

This is the third book in the series. I was looking forward to this third story in the series after reading the first two in the series. I would recommend that you read the first two before starting on this one. I found it hard to follow the timeline and the multitude of characters in this book. I found myself going back to the previous two books and skimming to see if I could refresh my memory on things I might have forgotten. I was still confused a lot of the time and often skipped pages/paragraphs.

You have your usual BDSM theme with a seemingly higher level of violence. Since BDSM is not really one of my favorite genres I might not be the best reviewer from a BDSM perspecitve. Jericho still remains my favorite character of the series.

This book definitely has a dark side and is heavy on the BDSM side. If you're looking for a lite BDSM romance focused on one main couple, this one will not do it for you.
