Dragons of Death MC #4

Tainted Retribution

Rate this book
Hauser is the wild boy of the MC, or at least that's what others say. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't, and the brothers wouldn't have it any other way. Along with the Dragons, he is ready to raise hell and ask questions later; busting heads, burning lives and bringing blood and chaos. Hauser will stop at nothing to guard what's important to him: his brotherhood, their honor and their loyalty.
Feel no guilt.
Bear no regret.
Show no mercy.

Sydney meets Hauser and finds that he's more than sex on a stick and hell on wheels. She is the brassy girl that might tame the feral boy, or will she want to? What will Sydney be willing to do when hard decisions need to be made?

When Ryla decides she want to make daddy dearest pay for what he did in the past, she aims to bring the Dragons to their knees. The games that she will play are bloody and dirtier that anyone can imagine. It's a contest of wills, and she's determined to make Dominic pay, even if she has to raise hell and bring out the Devil in him herself.

Lives will be lost, blood will be spilled. Those who stand against the Dragons will get burnt and suffer a tainted retribution.

Be Warned the Reckoning is at Hand!!

The Dragons of Death MC has been through h*ll so they are trying to protect what’s theirs. With the chief of police, Carter, looking for vengeance for shutting down one of his human trafficking rings it’s his daughter, Sydney who has found a man who she is attracted to while at work one night. He just so happens to be Hauser a member of the Dragon’s MC.

Sydney has no idea who her father really is but she will soon find out. Dom is another of the Dragon’s and his biological daughter, Ryla, has set in motion a series of events that will bring the Dragon’s MC to their knees. Who is going to survive through her vengeance especially now that she is helping Carter?

Sydney and Hauser have an unmistakable connection that will have you rooting for them throughout the book. I read this book in one sitting because I couldn’t put it down. Oh, but that ending will definitely have me keeping an eye out for the next book in this series!! I can’t wait!!

There is a lot going on in this book romance, revenge, violence, MC life, etc . I have not read the prior books in the series yet was able to catch up as I read the story. Hauser and Sydney meet at a BDSM club while they are both working there for non-sex reasons. Instant attraction yet they did the dance of cat and mouse.
Overall, the book was decent but a little to graphic description of violence for me personally.

Plum:A Steel Bones Motorcycle Club Romance was a good 4 star read.

This is Sydney and Hauser’s story with some additional characters that added even more to the story. When Hauser see’s Sydney for the first time at the BDSM club he is instantly drawn to her. She’s brassy and does a great job of pushing him away until she decided she could no longer resist him. We get some steamy moments from them.

We also have Carter who is determined to get revenge on the MC. Will he be successful?
Will Sydney and Hauser get a HEA?

Overall this was a good read.
We get revenge, romance violence and so much more in this book. The authors do a good job of pulling you in with their writing. I will warn that there are some graphic moments that could cause triggers. I look forward to reading more from this series. 1-click and get started on this series today.

This is book four in the Dragons of Death MC. I was able to follow along well and this book had so much going on. It was a fast read and kept me engrossed from the beginning. This is Sydney and Hauser’s book. Buckle up and enjoy this suspenseful ride. There are some graphic scenes that can cause triggers.

I like Sydney and her attitude. She was good. She was sassy, smart, and firey.

Hauser is a rough and tumble kind of man with the MC. He can have anyone he sets his eyes on. He never has to chase women they chase him until Sydney. She doesn’t give him the time of day. Until she does. Then all bet bets are off.

I liked the storyline. As I said this book gives you a lot. There are separate storylines going on and I think that brings more to it. You have Carter that is out to get the MCand you have Ryla that is out to get her father, a member of the MC. That story is intense and it all bleeds togethe4r.

I liked this book. I loved the cat and mouse of sorts at the beginning with Sydney and Hauser. They are great together. I liked reading about how they started and how it progressed.

This book is a good well-rounded read. I look forward to the next book.

This is my first book by either author and the only thing I can say is I'm sorry I didn't know about them earlier. Tainted Retribution is amazing! I love MC romances and these two have nailed it. I cannot wait to go back and read the other books in the Dragons of Death MC! I won't lie I love the violence and action. Sydney and Hauser have an undeniable attraction and chemistry that jumps off the pages. The connection they share had me cheering for them.

Tainted Retribution had everything I love in and MC romance, violence, steam, revenge. The plot was great, and I loved the characters. My only issue and it's not really an issue just my own weirdness is I'm not a fan of third person POV and it takes a little extra for me to read. Tainted Retribution was a the type of MC book you think of when you think MC. If you love MC, and don't mind third person POV read this, you will not be sorry!

HOLY HELL! WHERE HAVE I BEEN?! It only took one book for me to be in love with the Dragons of Death MC, and I NEED MORE! Tainted Retribution has so much going on that I just sat in shock, while my heart raced cover to cover. And I'm not talking about it being an overload to the senses, it was perfectly right up my alley. It surrounds a couple in the MC, first being Hauser, who finds something starting with the Chief of Police's daughter, Sydney. Next up is Dom, whose bio daughter has set in motion a crazy series of events which tried to bring the Dragons down, making for some HUGE twists & turns, and that shock I talked about above?! Well, no f-bombs were dropped with that shock that turned into straight up awe. Not saying they weren't f-bomb worthy, just saying speech was taken away while experiencing all the chaos! You have to read this story so hit those one click buttons as I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL!

~~~~~~~~~~Julie's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

This is Sydney and Hauser’s story but there is so much more in the book. These two characters are perfect for another yet neither will give in. The club is in danger and Hauser takes the threat serious. This MC is all about family and protecting those within. Excellent storyline. Fantastic writing.

~~~~~~~~~~Tracy's ⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

I started this book off with loving Sydney and Hauser's story but then there were too many characters mixed in and at times I didn't know who was talking. I tried to follow the different storylines and if this was just Sydney and Hauser's I would have loved it. I loved how Hauser was confused about how he felt and how strong Sydney became. They made the book for me and because of that I am giving this review three stars.

3 1/2 stars. I liked the story though there were too many people talking/observing the story. It was my first book and I had a problem keeping the characters straight. There was plenty of action though tempered with the love of family. I enjoyed Sydney and Hauser's journey through this world to find their love together. Sydney was strong and determined to have what she wanted despite the violence that she witnessed. Hauser fell for Sydney from the start, and he wanted to protect her but needed her to see his reality. The story was raw, violent, and could trigger some people. There were moments of tears, smiles, and laughs though.

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

Captain Carter is determined to destroy the Dragons MC after they took down his sex trafficking ring. Not only that but one of the Dragons have their filthy hands on his daughter.

Hauser felt a connection with the brassy Sydney. Love the way she puts him in his place.

After Ryla does the unthinkable she is captured. She reveals a dark secret to Ani, Dom's ol' lady, about Ryla's daddy dearest.

Action packed drama, suspense, betrayal, a little blood, retribution and steamy scenes.

Anyone who goes against the Dragons will suffer a tainted retribution.

Tainted Retribution is the first book from the Dragons of Death series and from either author I have read. Both authors take you on a ride as the Dragons try to find out who's trying to destroy them from the inside. I loved following the developing story of Sydney and Hauser, as well as the other members of the MC. I look forward to reading more from either author, and will be going back to read the first 3 books in the series when I can.

This was a new series for me and I dropped in on book four but I was able to catch up pretty quickly. The story is raw, gritty, chaotic and violent but I loved every minute of it! Hauser and Sydney fall in love amidst all of the chaos. As secrets and lies emerge will their love stay strong? Overall it was a fantastic story I just wish there wasn’t as many secondary characters to focus on.

This is a well written action-packed story which is raw, gritty, violent, as well as having revenge, retribution, drama, suspense, and betrayal which all lead to a steamy and addictive page turner. I look forward to reading more form this talented author and recommend for all.

A thrilling ride of drama, love, and revenge that has been a long time coming. Hauser and Sydney fall in love in the middle of all the chaos, and when choices and secrets threaten that love, you see how the MC pulls together.

Tainted indeed

The Dragons continue their macabre recovery from the prior events. They may be wounded, but that only makes them even more sexy and dangerous.
