He’ll strip everything from me, and he’s just getting started. It was supposed to be a simple delivery—until Joel Lasseter forced me off the road, held me up, and told me he was taking whatever he wanted.
I want to say that I resisted. I want to say that I put up the good fight. I want to say that I never saw him again.
But none of that would be the truth.
Stripped is a full-length, standalone romance novel with steamy hot sex, NO CHEATING, strong language, a happily every after ending and NO CLIFFHANGERS. Contains dark and disturbing themes, and over the top sexiness that may be uncomfortable for some readers.
I was actually enjoying this read, bad ass MC bikers who have soft spots for women, protecting them without the alpha bullshit but then something I absolutely fucking detest happened.....it ended on a fucking CLIFFHANGER!!!
This book grew on me. I thought at the time that it was a typical MC romance, and a well written one. Interesting characters. It was one that I found myself thinking about the next day. That said, I found the abrupt cut-off to book one VERY annoying. I fully understand a permafree to encourage read-through, but not one book split in three. Many authors use a full book in this genre, Chelle Bliss and Jeanne StJames for example.
Liked the book and would have given a higher rating, too annoyed by the abrupt ending.
But disappointing because it ended in a cliffhanger. Does Maurice get his revenge, are Carla and Joel able to have a HEA? I have to spend more money to find out! When one is on a limited budget (especially in today's economy) it really sucks. If I'd known I never would have gotten this one. This is one reason I like paper copies you can find out before you buy if its a standalone or not.
A slow but interesting start to the series. Joel & Carla meet unexpectedly with them both doing the same thing. High jacking a shipment. Trying to break free from her slimy boss Maurice & debt, she meets Joel & his crew to help move the shipment. Of course sparks fly between these 2. Onward to the next book for continuing story.
Took a little bit to get into but after awhile I couldn't put it down. This one ended on a cliff hanger and I now must find out what happens to these two lovers. I recommend if you got a couple hours to kill and are into "sexy" love books as I call them.
These my first story I have read by Brook Wilder. I thought it was good storyline and I look forward to reading the next book to see what happens next.
I enjoyed the story line and the characters. Carla was a great little innocent girl and Joel just had to have her. I can’t wait for Ride Rough. Ride Hard was to short.
I enjoyed the book even though I wish it was a stand alone book. The ending makes you have to purchase the next book in the series to finish the story.
Stripped, by Brook Wilder, was a good read. The author's writing continues to grow as she writes and that is evident in this book. The characters have solid chemistry and the story flowed well.
So far this has been a really good book. I can't wait to read the next one to find out what Maurice plans on doing to Carla and will Carla and her new love find that special love
