Gideon

A distraction is not something I want or need, but Angel is just that. Being in the wrong place at the wrong time has put her life in danger and now I’m forced to bring her under the protection of the Rebels. Something neither of us wants. But who are we to deny fate?

The one person you trust with your life can be the very person that commits a crime so devastating that the world as you know it will never be the same. Seeking the truth can sometimes reveal skeletons better left in the closet. Secrets, lies, and betrayal.

In the end, karma takes care of those who’ve wronged you, but this time VENGEANCE IS MINE!!!

I've been a book lover for as long as I can remember. Stories have a way of expanding the mind, making you question, what if? Four years ago, I stepped into the Book World as a blogger, and from that passion, The Erotic Book Review was born.

While I enjoy all genres, I'm especially drawn to Romance with a kinky edge. I believe that following your passion unlocks creativity and endless possibilities. There's something magical about taking readers on a journey, pulling them so deeply into a world that they feel every emotion, every moment. That love for storytelling led me to write, and now, I have the joy of sharing my words with others. I hope readers enjoy them as much as I love bringing them to life.

I live in North Georgia with the love of my life, my husband of over 30 years. When I’m not writing or reading, you’ll find me solving puzzles, meeting new people, learning about different cultures, watching football, or binge-watching my favorite shows.

One quote I live by.."Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.”

Awesome MC Read

If you are like me, I love my MC books to come with hot alpha men who not only love their clubs but the woman who grab their attention as well. Gideon is the Prez of the Rebel Souls MC and Angel worked at one of the clubs when she grabs Gideon’s attention. Now its up to him to protect her.

This book was a definite five star read for me. I loved the secrets, steam and surprises that just jumped off the pages. What a fantastic book that was a huge page turner. I can’t wait to read from from Ms. James.

Rebel Vengeance surpassed my expectations! Thetta James dives into the MC world, taking you on a wild and steamy ride! The teasing games that were played, felt she was teasing the reader which brought on anxiety and curiosity! I was so immersed in the story line, with scorching scenes , you couldn’t help but become so engrossed in the characters! Suspenseful and beautiful at the same time! Hints of other possibilities were mentioned giving me an insight that maybe there’s more to come! Exciting is an understatement! Fantastic story!

Wow!! Thetta has done it again!! This time she has conquered the MC genre!!

Gideon/Eagle is the President of the Rebel Souls MC. He's been there most of his life and that's all he wants. He keeps the rival clubs at bay and his men follow him to the end. Then someone burns down the local bar, Motormouth's. Now his objective is to find out who and extract vengeance. In the meantime, the men hang out at the Boobie Trap to unwind. Gideon isn't interested but he went to make sure nobody caused any trouble. Then the lights went down and his attention was captured by the new girl on stage, Angel.
Needless to say, trouble only stayed away for so long.
You'll learn bits n pieces about Gideon and Angel before the story gets going but Thetta keeps you enthralled by the backgrounds so you get involved to the point of no return!
I couldn't put the book down until I finished! It struck many a cord of emotion taking me on a ride I didn't want to end! The denials and the deceit added up to an unexpected ending! I can tell no more without giving spoilers but leave it to say the MC life was portrayed without too much violence and the hawt scenes were just the right amount of heat without becoming vulgar. She kinda reminds me of one of my fave male MC authors who I've been missing! I believe she can conquer anything she puts her mind and pen to!!
You won't be disappointed! And I'm looking forward to the next in her series!!

Rebel Vengeance (A World of Rebel Souls Novel
Thetta James
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My first Thetta James book and definitely not my last after reading this one.

Rebel Vengeance was incredibly entertaining and an absolute page Turner!

Gideon (Eagle) and Angel (Alise) were wonderfully crafted characters written into a brilliantly executed story. This story had it all, suspense, betrayal and so much passion.

I’ll be searching Thetta James stories for my next read but definitely looking forward to reading and reviewing the companion stories from other authors in this Rebel Souks world.

Highly addictive and recommended reading.

I can’t express enough how much I enjoyed this story. Thetta has a way with words that draws you into the story and keeps you invested.
Gideon or Eagle is a strong male lead and the President of the MC. Angel or Alise is also a strong character and in need of protection of the club whether she wants it or not.
The draw and connection is instalove and denial of that lasted through most of the story. This just added to the need read until my eyes dried out. 😆
I’m so excited for the next phase of this to continue.
Thank you Thetta for sharing your words with us.

I fell in love with Gideon and Angel from the beginning. Motormouth Maria’s catches fire and Gideon is on a mission to find out who did it. Angel works at a club and while she is taking a break, she overhears a certain conversation. What could it be? She gets caught listening but Gideon saves her. He wants to know what she overheard, but she won’t tell him right away. As she is about to go home the same guys show up only to have Gideon rescue her yet again. He makes her stay with him to keep her safe. Of course, Gideon doesn’t do relationships, but can Angel actually be someone he could settle down with? The attraction and chemistry is definitely there. This book brings you family secrets-which will be revealed on both Angel and Gideon’s side, scary moments not knowing what will happen next when a certain event happens, and an ending you won’t see coming! Gideon is definitely on a mission to avenge those that not only wronged him but who took the life of someone he cared deeply about. It will definitely be a shock when you see who it is! Get ready because this book is definitely a page turner you won’t want to put down.

Fantastic MC novella!

Rebel Vengeance is the first book I’ve read by Thetta James and she’s definitely an author I’ll be reading more from!
Her writing style is so easy to read yet chock full of emotion and passion that really draws you into the story. While some novellas may feel rushed, that is NOT the case here. Thetta does a superb job with the pacing of this short story and character development that it packed all the punch of a full length novel.
In Rebel Vengeance, Angel is a young woman living on her own, estranged from her religious family, and making ends meets as a stripper.
Rebel Souls MC president, Gideon, has no interest in love but his world knocked off its axis when he lays eyes on Angel.
When Angel becomes a target of a rival MC, Gideon steps in to protect her, uncovering shocking family secrets of his own.
The chemistry between them sizzles as they try to resist their attraction and catches fire as Gideon decides to tease Angel into giving in.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

OH MY HELL! I LOVED LOVED LOVED Thetta James' MC book, and devoured it easily in one sitting. Gideon (aka Eagle) is the president of the Rebel Souls MC, and with that responsibility, he does his best to keep distractions out of his life, like relationships, but the best laid plans amirite?! He's got his hands full with the local bar, getting burned down, so now the men hang out another place which is how he came face to face with Angel while she was on stage, and it was pretty much game over for him despite any sort of pushback. These two have the sparks flying like crazy, and they can't stay away from each other so it led to super sexy times that threatened to melt my kindle. Of course this is MC romance so there's trouble in spades bringing the twists in hot, and my heart racing while these two catch feelings for each other. This story was fantastic cover to cover, and I CANNOT WAIT for more! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I don't read much MC and from the ones I have read, very few held my interest.
Well, I can now say Thetta James and The Rebel Souls have changed that!

Gideon aka Eagle is the Prez of The Rebel Souls. He lives and breathes for the MC. Loyalty, Honor, and Love belong to his brothers and them alone... Until Angel. When this beauty falls prey to the rival MC, Gideon has no choice but to protect her, which isn't an unexpected task, he would do the same for any that live in their small town of Iron Forge. But what he didn't see coming was his heart taking the lead.

Angel is a feisty firecracker! Escaping the firm grip of her father has strengthened her soul and thickened her blood. But when she finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time, her life and safety fall into the hands of The Rebels. But her heart... that gets trapped in the wings of an Eagle.

Rebel Vengeance has it all! It's a nonstop flow of intense emotions. Love/Hate, Loyalty/Betrayal, Honor/Disregard. It's raw, gritty, and full of passion.

A must-read for all!
FIVE REBEL STARS!

I love a fast burn and if you do too this book is for you! This is personally my first step into MC romance a trope I never thought I would enjoy, but let me tell you, Ms. James turned me around.
This wonderfully crafted novella took me on a ride that I didn’t know I needed to be on. I stepped into a world that I never dreamed I would step into.

This book lets you quickly get a feel for the characters and what they are about and hop right into the story.

When she makes a discovery behind The Boobie Trap she’s forced to make some hard choices. She can try and handle it herself or she can take some advice from Eagle that she’s not so happy about.

I was able to connect with the Angel quickly in the book and she was quick to be a favorite. As much as she wants to play hard ball and be the tough guy, even she can admit that she needs some protection.

From the first page to the last page this book will leave you wanting more!
It’s that fast burn that you need in your life!

A Must read

I have never read an MC book before but since Thetta James wrote it, I decided to give it a try. To be honest, I was not disappointed. In fact, Gideon and Angel's story was the most unexpected journey I've ever read. I was not expecting this book to move me in so many ways. Gideon turned into a knight in shining armor and I really wanted Angel to get her happy ending. It wasn't easy but I'm glad things turned out great.

Of course, the surprises in this book were mind blowing and that is what made me fall in love with Thetta James ever since reading Love Hurts. The surprises make the book a page turner. And the characters and romance are just a bonus. The complexity of this story was indeed satisfying. I am truly I'm love with this masterpiece. Thetta James needs an award for this book. DEFINITELY A FANTASTIC READ

“Rebel Vengeance” A World of Rebel Souls Novel by Thetta James was a great MC read! My first time reading this Author’s work and I look forward to enjoying more in future.
Eagle (Gideon), President of the Rebel Souls MC and Angel (Alise) petite exotic dancer at the Booby Trap (love the name lol) have a run in one night when Angel almost lands face first in Gideon’s lap while performing…..these two definitely have chemistry. I just love a good MC book and this one has suspense with a side a danger, big badass bikers, twists and turns and not to mention plenty of sizzling heat. Enjoyable book! ~Angie❤️

Rebel Vengeance

What a fantastic story. It’s about falling in love when you have decided it’s not in the cards for you. But then you realize that the woman you have been thinking of has broken into your heart and you know that you can never let her go.
Angel did just that. Gideon was questioning himself, because he’s never found a woman like her, and he wants her, but on his terms, for now.
Eagle (aka Gideon) realizes that Eagle makes her knees weak and she is always wet for him. He also has a problem because he’s always said he wasn’t interested in a relationship. But he couldn’t stop thinking about her.
This story was awesome. I loved their relationship and was happy to see them getting together. I absolutely loved this book. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Heart Turbulence

This is the first story, I'm reading in this world and it won't be my last.

This story was so heart wrenching at moments, action packed and the storyline held my attention from cover to cover. Angel grows up in a backhanded religious household. Where things look good from the outside but it is really he11 on the inside. She flees from what life has in store for her and creates a new life, then enters Gideon's smexy a$$. Gideon has his past that he's lived through and grown from, but your past always comes around mixing with your present.

This story was very interesting and had some smexy parts to it. Totally a must read within the world!

Great read , highly recommend!!!

Ms James pulls you in from the very beginning and takes you quite literally on the MC club ride. The characters are believable and boy does the author pull on all your emotions. The characters Eagle and Angel are hot together and the attraction is instant although through their different life experiences the journey is not straight forward. This is an edge of your seat addictive sexy read with a good story line. Ms James please give us more 🔥💥🏍🏍

A story that sucked me straight in and one that I just couldn’t put down. Ms James has a beautiful way with words which filled my mind with vivid imagery of this suspenseful story. I equally loved Angel & Gideon and thoroughly enjoyed the deep feelings that their relationship provoked. Want a story with depth but also with characters that feel so real and also delivers on the spice factor? Look no further! Rebel Vengeance is a must-read!

Wow. This book was amazing. There is so many secrets that I didn't expect until they come out. I couldn't put book down once started.

I loved Gideon and Angel together, they may not of wanted a relationship. But Gideon comes Angels rescue, and their is instant attraction between them. Angel helps Gideon keep calm and bring peace to him through all he learns. Gideon is there for her when she needs it most.

I can't wait for more.

I don't know

I have no idea why I liked this book. It miss a few spots where the writer could have been more detailed and there was one point I was deeply disappointed in the way the couple after a something very serious happened to her, I would think in "real life" no woman would have reacted like that, so that's why only four stars. Still this book was a fast easy read. Shirley

Phenomenal

Every Thetta James book I’ve ever read has been 5 star material and they all have been so different from each other except for two things. One, the beautiful way with words that she has. Two, the spice and steaminess of her books is off the charts hot!

This was a short book for me. Shorter than my usual reads but Thetta packs so much story and information into it that it feels like a hefty read.

I can’t wait to read the rest of this world. Such an amazing book and really cool characters and story line.

Book one in the Rebel Souls series. Gideon is the president of the club. He loves his brother and his club. He wants peace. So when the enemy comes calling. Angel is in danger. He does not do relationships but angel bring something more then $ex. She brings the feeling of coming home. Secrets and lies and mix. The story is just right. You won’t put it down till the last page.

You’re going to love Gideon and Angel

What can I say about Gideon and Angel? You’re going to fall in love with them. Gideon is the President of the Rebel Souls MC in Iron Forge, OR. His whole life revolves around his MC family but does he have room to let Angel in or even a choice? Sometimes the choice is easy and sometimes it’s a difficult path. With all that’s going on between them Gideon also has MC and family business going on. The question is will he survive it all or will they break? You’ll have to read it to find out but trust me you won’t be sorry.

Good story

Lots of great characters in this book. Always love an MC with a purpose and keeping their town safe. A man who thought he grew up knowing the truth about his family finds out there are secrets. Secrets that come out when a woman he is falling for gets caught by the evil he defends his family from or so he thought.

Family Lies

I enjoyed the story that was so much more than than just Angel and Gideon's story. The lies that come out change lives and in a way, open hearts. The two rival clubs might be able to keep a truce for a while at least.

This is the first book by Thetta I have read as well as the first book in this collection. MCs are one of my favorite genres. This one didn’t disappoint. Gideon is the prez of his MC. Angel works at the strip club the club owns. There is just something about her that calls to him. Then Angel overhears something she shouldn’t have. Now she is in danger. Guess who she literally runs into trying to get away? Now she under the protection of Gideon and the MC. This book was a great read. It had romance, danger, family secrets, and more. Gideon comes from a wealthy family. Angel wasn’t so lucky. She doesn’t trust easily. Which is great at keeping her safe but can also put her in danger. Will she be able to trust Gideon? I will be looking into other books in this collection. Great job Thetta. I look forward to reading more books by her.
