Sawyer Jackson, better known to his brothers as Big Easy, is dedicated to his club. Being the President of Hades Outlaw MC is a title he puts above all else. At the age of forty, Sawyer is the only member yet to settle down. As the bachelor of Hades Outlaw MC, he enjoys living life his way—no strings attached. Sawyer feels his life is better uncomplicated by love and intends to keep it that way. He has yet to meet a woman special enough to change his mind. Until a compassionate, alluring, green-eyed nurse steals his heart and changes his mind with just one look.
From a young age, Elizabeth Hogue knew she would follow in her parent’s footsteps and enter the medical field. As a Hospice nurse, she comforts those transitioning from this life to the next. While most twenty-five-year-old women are out at the club and partying with friends, Elizabeth prefers quiet evenings at home, curled up with a glass of wine and a good book. Until she meets Sawyer Jackson. His smoldering grey eyes and devilish smile stop her in her tracks. Yet, it’s his Cajun accent and the slow seductive way in which he speaks her name that has her giving the cocky biker her number.
A deadly obsession soon turns their world upside down. Frightened and alone with a madman, love becomes Elizabeth’s strength to stay alive. In a race against time, Sawyer will stop at nothing to find the woman he loves and do whatever it takes to bring Elizabeth home.
Outrageously good story! I don’t know where this author duo has been all my life but imma stalk the heck out of them now! Yes, I just spent a ton of money on their backlist but something tells me it’s going to be an epic binge!
This is one of those stories that comes at you, but you don’t expect it. Better put maybe would be it’s a bigger story than I expected, and I wish there were more words because of it. Because of its length, it reads a bit insta, but it isn’t. GAH, I do wish there was a bit more exploration and growth between the two leads before the story cut off but maybe that’s a sign that they might appear in a future book. That’s a very common theme in MC romances so I’ve got my fingers crossed.
Sweet and romantic with just a touch of suspense and action, this is a great story for someone who maybe has never dipped into the genre. I highly recommend it to both readers of MC romances and to those readers who have never dipped into the genre.
This is one of my favorite writing duos. In Cocky Outlaw, they bring insta-love and unforgettable characters to this short romance. Sawyer lives up to his name. He’s the president of the Hades Outlaws MC club and is defiantly one cocky outlaw. Elizabeth is set in her career and isn’t looking for love or a relationship. That is until Sawyer makes and entrance into her life. One look and it’s game over for Sawyer. He falls head over heals with each other as soon as they meet. The book is the perfect blend of drama and chemistry. A great book to keep you in bed a little longer.
Romance genre: MC Series: Cocky Hero Club (with connections to Kings of Retribution) Length: 66 pages
Plot: Sawyer is the president of his MC and has a pretty good life with no desire to settle down. But then he meets Elizabeth at a local fundraiser and he falls hard. But she might be in danger, so it will be up to him to watch over her and keep her safe so that he can have his happy ever after.
Commentary: This was a very short book based in the Cocky Heroes world with connections to the author's Kings of Retribution MC series. We saw a couple of characters from some of those MC books when Sawyer and Elizabeth went on a road trip. The book was sweet with a hero who was struck dumb by his destiny just after he was thinking about how it was great to be free and not tied down. Elizabeth was not as experienced but something about Sawyer really spoke to her. She was ready to defy her overprotective father and jump into a relationship with the MC prez. I enjoyed this - I do wish it had been longer.
I was not familiar with these authors prior to this book. But I love a good MC story and this one had an older hero which also intrigued me. The story was short but packed with action and a bit of suspense.
Loved getting to know Sawyer and his back story. elizabeth was a sweetheart but had some spunk to her as well. I could have used more MC action if I am honest. But given the length of the story, it was a perfect romance. Loved the H and h together. I could feel the spark between them.
The story was interesting enough, I am tempted to snab up more of the Hades Outlaw series.
*Complimentary copy provided for an honest review.
I loved this short story. Sawyer was amazing. I loved that he had a past that wasn’t so good, but that he worked hard and now he is the president of the Hades Outlaw MC.
Elizabeth was sweet and she was a bit of a homebody. And she and Sawyer made an awesome sweet couple. When you start the book Big Easy (Sawyer) had no problem saying that he wouldn’t ever have an ol’ lady, but when he met Elizabeth he quickly changed his tune. When he asked her out she was more than willing, but things isn’t as easy as that. As there was another man who thought that he had every right to Elizabeth. I guess he needs to learn what it means messing with another man’s woman 😊
Short, sweet but definitely packed a punch. This book was romantic, it had some action and a bit of suspense thrown in. I love this duo’s writing and especially their MC stories always has me hooked from the start to the end 😊 ♥
5 Star Review Cocky Outlaw (Cocky Hero Club) by Crystal Daniels & Sandy Alvarez Both Crystal Daniels & Sandy Alvarez are new authors to me and that is one of the things I have loved the most about reading books in the Cocky Hero Club. I have discovered so many new authors to read. Although not a long book the authors packed a lot into this entertaining read about Sawyer Jackson aka Big Easy, the President of Hades Outlaw MC and hospice nurse Elizabeth Hogue. From the moment their eyes meet there is a connection that sparks between them. Sawyer has a past but it is one that he has put behind him. The connection between them is deep and when the past comes back to haunt them and Elizabeth is in danger, Sawyer will do everything he can to save her. After the harrowing ordeal, Sawyer and Elizabeth know that they are meant to be. I loved their story and I was cheering for them to get their happily ever after.
*happy sighs* Is there really anything better then a cocky alpha biker?! I mean Big Easy is just so, well, easy to fall in love with. The story is sweet and steamy with enough alpha-ness to make my swoon and a very fun and dynamic plot between the romance. I loved getting to see Big Easy and Elisabeth fall for each other and how their friends and family were so accepting. As swoon worthy as Big Easy is, Elizabeth is just as kind and sweet and caring. There is a small scary plot mixed in and I add great tension. Fantastic read.
**I would also like to note that Elisabeth is a hospice nurse in this story and being that hospice is something that is very close to my heart (I am a caregiver to a hospice patient), it is so amazing to see the addition of such a difficult job highlighted and honored so well in this story. The authors did an amazing job of the highlighting the difficult times, the joys, the emotions and the heart of these amazing caring people. Thank you for that!
With the help of his uncle Sawyer overcame his difficult past and found a home at the Hades Outlaw MC of which he is now the President. While supporting a charity event at the hospital he meets Elizabeth and knows that they are meant to be together.
Elizabeth has followed in the footsteps of her father Simon who is a doctor and became a nurse like her mother Bridget. From the moment they meet the sparks fly and when she is being threatened there is no one else you would rather have in your corner than Sawyer.
Hot chemistry, captivating characters and a little suspense all add up to a story that will keep you entertained from beginning to end.
This story may be a quick read but it gives a full story. Insta love, danger, sexy scenes and hot biker. We get a quick shot of Sawyer and Elizabeth’s past experiences and who they are. Sawyer is the possessive, alpha biker and Elizabeth the hospice nurse. They make an instant connection. From the moment Sawyer see Elizabeth she becomes “his woman”. Easy fun read.
These are new authors to me but now I am hooked. I love that the story isn't long but they pack a punch. Elizabeth and Sawyer have amazing chemistry and I love that she's a homebody, as I could related. There is suspense and danger thrown in that kept me on edge.
Love the book just wished it was longer lol. I thought both Sawyer and Elizabeth were great together. Even though it was a quick short read in my opinion it still was 5 stars.
aw lovely wee short story, the characters were realistic, and the storyline wasn't rushed considering it was a short read, this was the first book I've read from this author definitely be reading more from them
Another instalove story for the win. Sawyer "Big Easy" claims to be happy living the single life but that all changes when he sees Elizabeth at the charity event.
Elizabeth is tired of the questions about her love life and in fact has stayed away from love because of her ex.
When the two meet, it's instant fire. One simple touch sends bolts of lighting cascading through their bodies with the same conclusion for both of them - "you're mine."
While learning of their new found love, forces try to take that away. However, the president of Hades Outlaws is not going to just sit by while his woman is in danger. He shows that even in a small amount of time, when you know you've found your complete other half, you know.
Crystal and Sandy are phenomenal at everything and shorter, instalove stories are no exception. Everything you want in a story they give you. This book gave me the feels, the heat, the suspense, while none of it felt rushed or forced. It was perfect.
Sandy and Crystal have done it again! I loved Cocky Outlaw! This sister writing duo are amazing and talented. I devour anything they write and Cocky Outlaw is no exception. I find myself immersed in their books and I tend to devour them in no time! Sawyer and Elizabeth are complete opposites, but we all know just how much opposites attract! These two are smoking and I love the way Sawyer goes after exactly what he wants. His past is anything but typical. Lets just say he hit rock bottom, but found his way back within the MC brotherhood. I love a good comeback story and Sawyer's story is one worth reading. Elizabeth is a beautiful vivacious woman who was hurt in the past. She is compassionate and gives everything she has to each and ever one of her patients. She has a few self esteem issues that are caused by someone in her past. When these two first meet neither one is looking for the other. With Sawyer's help she spreads her wings and she flies! Now with this being said we do get some outside forces who think they can screw with Hades Outlaw MC! Let's just say that is a huge mistake on their parts!
They’ve done it again. My favorite sisters have written a quick, exciting, sexy and fun book. Sawyer is the President of the Hades Outlaw MC who meets hospice nurse Elizabeth and then proceeds to sweep her off her feet. As I said, this book is quick but we also get to meet a whole new cast of characters and get a short visit with the Kings of Retribution MC Louisiana family. Really excited to see if we get more stories from the Hades Outlaw MC group. Thanks for another great read ladies, you never fail to entertain.
I really enjoyed this book It was so nice to read a book about a 40-year-old finding love for the first time, the 'understood' just made my heart melt! The over protective dad and the loving teasing family made me smile and laugh, (who doesn't love pie before dinner) There was such a softness to their love story I did not want this book to end.
In this venture into the Cocky World, we meet Sawyer, the president of an MC and Elizabeth, a hospice nurse. They meet, and it is immediate sparks. But something is going awry, and it leads to drama for the couple.
This is a quick read, and its full of heart and heat.
Crystal and Sandy did it again! This book was absolutely phenomenal. Elizabeth and Sawyer who at first glance appear to be complete opposites are absolutely perfect together and for each other. We see a few familiar faces which made me so absolutely giddy! I loved this book so much, my only complaint is I needed more!! I received an arc for my opinion
This was a pretty quick read but as always Sandy Alvarez and Crystal Daniels knock it out of the park. I am always amazed when I read any of their books because you can't tell which part each author wrote. The story is seamless and that is not always the case with books written by multiple authors. It is one of the reasons they are on my favorite authors list.
but get immersed in the stories that these two sisters bring to life on the pages of their books. And they did it again with Cocky Outlaw.
Elizabeth has decided that the only boyfriends for her are of the book kind after being hurt by an ex. Unlike her outgoing sister Elizabeth is shy and has a hard time making friends. She is an introvert which can make social situations difficult. She meets Sawyer while attending a charity event.
There is an immediate connection and almost magical in the way it happens. I mean talk about love at first sight! . Then while attending a charity event for cancer she literally bumps into Sawyer. I love that this shy, uncertain woman falls for the president of the Hades Outlaw MC. Sawyer has some issues in his past he has had to overcome as well.
Sawyer and Elizabeth are simply perfect together which means there is plenty out there attempting to keep them apart. They prove just how strong their connection and love for one another is though.
Big Easy has past regrets but he’s learned a very hard lesson. Elizabeth is an angel at work as well as a dutiful daughter. You may wonder how are we ever going to see these two as a couple. The authors do a great job in showing how well they can make it work.
This has to be the shortest Cocky Hero Club story that I’ve read so far. In just a matter of a few hours it will be over and you’ll be left wanting more. They show that a gruff character can find love with a sweet woman. And they go one step further and give a little suspense. Being a short read, you wonder how they have the time to include that but they make it work and nothing is rushed or short-changed so that you think that something is missing.
One thing it did leave me with was wanting more of the Hades Outlaw MC. I like that they are in a state I love to visit but that’s not why I want more. It’s because I get enough of some of the other members that I want to learn more about them. Another club is mentioned, Kings Of Retribution, that I can check out in the meantime. There’s also an audio version of our main character’s story coming out that at some point in my future I may want to check into.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
You can't help but get immersed in the stories that these two sisters bring to life on the pages of their books. And they did it again with Cocky Outlaw.
Sawyer >Big EasyElizabeth Hogue is a hospice nurse who has been hurt in the past by an ex-boyfriend. She decides to devote herself to her patients, their families and any boyfriends now come from the books she reads. She has always been shy, quiet and had difficulty making friends whereas her twin sister was the outgoing boisterous popular one. Then while attending a charity event for cancer she literally bumps into Sawyer. She feels goosebumps and tingling all over but she's not the only one that feels the connection because the next thing that happens is he asks her to dinner. He makes her feel safe, alive and special. Their connection is magical then the unthinkable thing happens someone tries to take it all away. Sawyer will do whatever it takes to find her and Elizabeth's love for him is what helps her survive her harrowing ordeal. What a captivating, emotional, suspense filled, passionate, heartfelt journey where two opposites end up being the the perfect match. I loved reminiscing with the gang from New Orleans too. Five +⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I received an ARC from the authors for my honest review.
4.5 Stars for Cocky Outlaw (Cocky Hero Club) I love catching up with the world of cocky hero’s because not only have I found some wonderful new stories but I have also found sone wonderful new authors to follow, in this case both Crystal Daniels and Sandy Alvarez are new to me. This may be a quick read but Cocky Outlaw still packs a mighty punch, it’s a captivating, entertaining read about Sawyer Jackson aka Big Easy, President of Hades Outlaw MC and hospice nurse Elizabeth Hogue, two opposites with an instant connection. Sawyer and Elizabeth meet at a charity event and it’s clear there is an instant attraction, a connection they both feel but Sawyer doesn’t do relationships until now …. What follows is a man on a mission determined to protect and sweep the woman he has fallen for off her feet but what happens when Elizabeth’s past comes back to haunt them and will Sawyer be able to protect her when she finds herself in danger. This is one of those reads that has you cheering, wishing and hoping for a HEA, it’s sweet yet passionate and it has characters you can’t help loving. It’s a great addition to the world of Cocky Hero’s and I’m looking forward to reading more from both of these authors.
He's the president of an MC. The club does a lot of good in the community where single-and-plans-to-stay-that-way, Sawyer meets the sweet, compassionate, hospice nurse. He's the single man in the club and planned to stay that way until meeting her. For the first time, he wanted more than a single night. She deserved more and he planned to give it to her.
She'd had one relationship and he'd been cruel at their break-up. She was fine alone--until Sawyer.
He'd been warned by some of the brothers that one day he'd be hit with feeling for a woman unlike any other. The day has come. When he realized how he felt, he thought he'd have to work hard to make her his. She was as surprised to feel the same and so quickly.
He is not the only one who wants her. Just how far is the other man willing to go? Will she make it out alive. What will it cost Sawyer to get his woman back?
Their romance is hot and steamy like the summer in the Big Easy city. The characters are fun, the brothers are a good mix of MC justice and compassion, the families funny, loyal, and protective, as well as the couple and their growing love.
I loved this short, hot, MC romance and highly recommend it to MC fans and new readers alike. Reviewed for Words Turn Me On
This is a brand new author for me and this story is a bit on the violent and dark side.
It contains:
Violence Murder Addiction to Drugs Drunk Driving Prostitution Cancer
In this story we meet Sawyer who is also called Big Easy who gets his name because comes from New Orleans. He ends up in Rhode Island and with his Uncle Wyatt's MC club and becomes the Prez when his uncle dies. He cleans up the club and he ends up running a night club and tattoo shop with the MC.
We also meet Elizabeth Hogue who is Simon's 25 year old daughter who is nurse like her mom. She meets Easy at a Cancer event and he is very into her.
They both fall hard for each other. But Elizabeth also has a stalker and can Sawyer save her in time?
I don't typically like MC club and violent romances t this one was fairly tame and I adored this couple. They fall hard for each other from almost the first moment. It was very hot and interesting and I could not put it down.
I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
When you first meet Sawyer (Big Easy), he swears he will never just be with one woman. He had a hard past, and worked hard to get where he is now. He is the President of his MC and loves living the single life. That all changes when he meets Elizabeth and a charity event.
Elizabeth is a hospice nurse and is not looking for love. When she meets Sawyer it is an instant spark between the two of them. Even though they come from opposite worlds, they are drawn to each other. The two of them make sense together. Elizabeth was not looking for love, but she found that love with Sawyer. They are both what each other needed. And the why both families immediately accepted the other was amazing!
This book has a little bit of suspense to it, but it was easy to figure out who was behind it. I loved how Sawyer become all protective alpha over Elizabeth, I just wish this book was longer!!
This was a feel good story of second chances in life.
Sawyer needed a wake-up call and he got it twice. He had a problem with drugs and alcohol but nothing stopped him. He didn't learn the first time when his best friend was killed and he almost died however, he did learn the second time when he overdosed. Moving away to his uncles is what he needed. His uncle was the Prez of a MC and he wouldn't put up with his crap. Sawyer finally got his life together but never thought he'd want to be tied down. Well that changed when he met Elizabeth.
Elizabeth is a nurse at a hospice and has just emerged a relationship due to him cheating. She really isn't looking for anyone until she meets Sawyer. She is taken back by this handsome biker guy and sees the good in him.
This story sweet and enjoyable to read. The chemistry between them was fantastic.
These two authors did an amazing job writing this book together. I look forward to reading more from the both of them.
I continue on this rabbit hole journey with Cocky Outlaw. This is a short and dirty novella set in the Cocky Hero world create by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward. This book follows MC President, Sawyer “Big Easy” Jackson and his instant connection with nurse Elizabeth Houge. This story is well fleshed out in not at lot of pages. I trusted Daniels and Alvarez with creating a strong and entertaining HEA in few pages. Sawyer struggled in the past with a lot of vices and feels as though he will never be in a committed relationship, but then he spies Elizabeth at a charity function, and instantly his world is flipped upside down. There is no doubt these two are soul mates, and experience that pull from the moment they make eye contact. There is an element of suspense that is solved without strings, and there are some wonderful side characters. If you want something short, kind of dirty, and entertaining. This is the story for you.
