Being released from prison is bittersweet for Jack. He may have done his time, but now he’ll have to make up for the things that got him locked up in the first place. Getting back into his club and King’s good graces may take more than he has to give. Then there’s the problem of his very own knight in shining armor. All he really knows about Zero is that for some reason he keeps jumping to Jack’s defense, and that the guy pisses him off. For more than one reason.

When Zero looks at Jack, he sees himself; broken, bruised, and looking for a second chance. Even when Jack makes it perfectly clear he doesn’t want his help, he can’t stop defending him. He sees right through Jack’s tough exterior, and he’s spellbound from day one. Then Jack starts to look at him in a way no one ever has and while all he wants is Jack, he finds it hard to believe anyone could ever love someone like him.

Jack’s bad choices catch up to him in an unexpected way and if he’s forced to choose between going back to prison and protecting Zero, he knows what he’ll choose.

I had no idea I needed this exact book in my life until Zero smashed the door to pieces and burst into my heart. And gods, it was so good.

* I should make a note here and say that you should have read the other books in the series to know what it is about. This will make it easier for you to understand who the other characters in the book are and what their story is. But if that doesn't bother you, you can also read it as a stand-alone book.

I'm having a hard time choosing a favorite between Zero and Jack.

On the one hand, Jack is so raw and primal. Only a few hours ago released from prison, lonely, angry, full of doubts and expecting to find support in the person of his twin. But things don't go according to his plan. He discovers something completely different and this further fuels the storm in his heart.

On the other side is Zero, who has already gone through this path and found his new family in the person of Salvation Kings MC. He filled my heart from the first moment he jumped to Jack's defense in front of King.

Their first meeting was dynamic. The two clashed like two bulls that don't know where to turn. From there, the story unfolded in a charming and natural way. There was such a strong chemistry between the two that mixed with all these emotions it became an unexpectedly good combination.

In conclusion, I can say that this was a wonderful book that I am happy to recommend with both hands. And of course, I'm looking forward to the rest of the series!

4 stars for Zero and Jack! I would have to say this is probably my favorite book this author has written. I started with Saint a while back and you can see how much better the writing is getting from book to book.

So Jack was an absolute asshole the first 30% of the book. I honestly didn’t see how the hell Zero even liked him. He was rude to him from the jump and Zero didn’t even care he just wanted him so badly. But I will say that Jack redeemed himself. Him and Zero were so sweet together.

I actually really enjoyed the conflict and the action in this one. It was also nice to see the other characters from other books. I also appreciated how there seemed to be like 5 less sex scenes than usual. This book wasn’t half sex like all of the other ones.

The reason for the missing star is that I don’t know what the hell anyone looks like! In all of her books the characters are NEVER described. We have no idea how tall they are, what build they have, their skin tone, their hair color, their eye color or how old they are! I’m such a visual person especially while reading books so it’s really frustrating not knowing what anyone looks like. It’s hard to put a face to the characters when we are given nothing to work with. So if I knew even the slightest what these guys looked like this would have been a five star read.

Zero is another great addition to the Salvation Kings MC series and I really enjoyed it. This is a well written story with intriguing characters, an interesting storyline and as always it is wonderful to see how well some of the couples from the previous books are doing. Jack and Zero are exactly what the other needs and I love how their relationship develops. They have a lot to deal with but are very supportive of each other even though Jack is having a very difficult time after being released from prison. Zero knows what he is going through and will do whatever it takes to help him. The ending is good and I can't wait to read the next book in this exciting series.

This review has been translated into English by electronic means.

This book was a huge question mark for me. I like the author's writing style in general, it's easy to understand, direct and without frills. But!!!

I noticed the changes that have occurred since the beginning of the series until now, and while I like the improvement in the writing since then, I didn't like the drop in quality in the development of the story. I've noticed this not only in this series and with this author, but also with other series by other authors that I'm reading that aren't fantasy. I say this because when you write fantasy it's more believable, within the notion that it's a work of fiction of course, that one person will fall in love with the other at first sight, in that context, of course. And yes, I understand this happening in contemporary romances and all the others, but when you're reading a longer series, which I love by the way, you expect not to have this same concept applied in each new book released.

This bothers me, even more so when the author doesn't use the artifice of the passage of time to justify that emotional dependence in alarming proportions that happens mainly in this book.

I simply loved Zero, he's the kind of character you want to bring to life, cradle and protect. I understood where he was coming from with his notions of protection, his aversion to self-love. I also tried to understand Jack, but it was difficult, because I understood his anger and pain, but I didn't accept it and it doesn't justify the way he took it out on Zero, right away. It was ridiculous. After all, he could have changed everything that happened, if he had just told the truth to his so-called "family". And even with the way he was treated, Zero fell in love with Jack, in practically two days. Come on, it was hard to accept that. And after all that, there was no groveling, apologies or forgiveness on Jack's part.

After the first books in the series, I felt a drop in the development of the story. There is no longer any connection between the books. The characters from previous or later books seem more like extras with meaningless lines to fill pages.

The fact that the passage of time is not properly mentioned has bothered me since the first book. These shorter books should have a well-defined and described chronological order, so that readers can better follow the events and even become more involved with the story being told. But everything happens so quickly, as if your life happened in a week or two and nothing else matters. Sometimes you only focus on the facts of a few moments, so each chapter portrays an hour or day of that week, with internal dialogues or dialogues between characters that are often boring.

I love it when an author manages to develop the story of his characters, no matter how short the book is, with more balance, without getting too fixated. Show their lives in a broader, more comprehensive way, giving more details about their lives beyond that single problem that he decides to use as a backdrop and that probably won't be seen as a problem in the next book.

How can an author imply that a character was abused in all forms, especially sexually, as a child, and eliminate the abuser because he was going to commit the same act with his sister, but doesn't develop this in the story? I was like, 'What?' She mentions the fact, but doesn't elaborate and everyone simply uses it against the victim, victimizing him once again, after everything he went through and being judged as an adult, even though it wasn't considered at the time of the events, even with all the mitigating factors he had in his favor. Yes, there are injustices in the world, but here it just seemed convenient to me.

I feel like I'm between a rock and a hard place. On the one hand, I like the series, the writing style and, in this case, one of the main characters. But on the other hand, I feel frustrated with the story in general. I expected more for a book that concluded a series.

Zero is book 7 in the Salvation King MC series by Ana Night and focuses on Jack and Zero. Jack has just been released from prison and is trying to get back into the good graces of his MC President, King after the mistake that he has made, but it is going to be harder than he thought as things have definitely changed for him whilst he has been in prison and he isn’t the same man that he was before. Hence when his new knight in shining armour, Zero keeps popping up everywhere he goes, defending him, he doesn’t quite know what to do with it.

Zero has his own history with prison and living with what he did. But he sees something in Jack that makes him special and want to protect him, no matter how prickly Jack seems to be towards him. Zero is looking for love though and doesn’t believe that someone like Jack would look at him in anything but contempt, especially when he learns what he did to earn going to prison. But with both of these men, looks can be deceiving and they may just find salvation in each other’s arms.

This was a really well written story with lots of emotions and vulnerability going on. At the start, Jack is quite cold and harsh towards Zero, but he starts to see the man that he is every time he pops up and helps him. Sadly, Jack’s past pops up and is starting to cause a lot of issues, but with Zero and the club by his side, he is going to learn what love and loyalty are rather quickly.

A rather quick read with a beautiful happily ever after, some steamy scenes and some great characters. This is a great series to read if you want to while away a few hours!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the series' previous books over the past week. This is the second MM MC series I've read, and I am definitely a fan of the MC world. I especially liked the diversity of characters in the Salvation Kings MC. The representation was wide, and each of the characters was intriguing and unique in their own right.

This installment was just as enjoyable as the previous ones in the series. I thought Jack and Zero were a good match. Not only was their chemistry explosive from the start, but they understood each other as individuals who had been through something life-changing. Throughout the story, they shared some of the same struggles and insecurities, which solidified their connection. In addition, they shared a loyalty to the MC and a protective side toward the people they cared about.

I appreciate that the author always keeps the stories in the individual books fresh with plenty of action, an engaging conflict resolution, and a unique premise to match the main characters. I can definitely say that each book is different and fascinating on its own.

All in all, a great book (and series, for that matter) for MM readers who enjoy a compelling storyline, some action, and lots of steam with their romance.

Jack's Hero!

Getting out of prison all Jack wanted to see was his brother, but what he got was Zero a stranger. Nothing seemed to go his way, first King was still upset, then he went home and found out his room was turned into a nursery and lastly his brother blaming him. But,with every going on the one person to have his back was Zero. The stranger he wanted nothing to do with yet he wanted, he was still trying to figure this out because everytime he needed anything for some reason Zero was there. What started as a love/hate relationship turned into so much more. No matter how much they tried to fight their attraction to each other the more they were drawn to each other,it was like Zero could see Jack's soul and all Zero wanted was Jack and that was a first for him. Because of how his life started he never thought he'd have what he found a man to love and a man to love him. Cute Couple!😍😍

Exciting, tense great story! Zero and Jack, were both ex cons released from prison. They were men working their way back into society. Zero was out first and estaablished into the MC, Jack was in. Zero had time to get his feet on the ground and find his balance. Jack, was finding his balance a litle defensive and a little attitudinal. He needed to make living arrangements, find a job and reconnect with family and his MC. Will Jack have an easy time? Can Zero help? Will Jack stay out of jail? I really liked the story 1/3 of the way in. The story seemed to be more about Jack than Zero. I would have liked more of their backgrounds and more about the MC. Jack and Zero were amazing men and I would have liked a longer story. Good story, well done! I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Zero is the seventh book in the Salvation Kings MC, by author Ana Night. This story is told in dual POV which really fits the storyline. I do not think you need to read the books in order to get this story. You always get more out of a series if you do read them in order, but it is not something you have to do to read this story.

Zero: The Kings have saved his life. Given it meaning again after being in prison. He wants love for himself. But more than that he wants to be a good person.

Jack: twin to Sully. He has been in prison for betraying the Kings and breaking the law. He wants to be back into the Kings good graces but he has an uphill battle for that. He is very angry when we meet him and Zero is his light in the darkness.

Overall, great read. I love this series and cannot wait for more in the future.

I appreciate the action in this book but what really grabbed me from the first and wouldn't let go were the characters of Jack and Zero. Jack is so transparent to Zero in the way that he's hoping so much to fit back in with the club, wanting to feel that camaraderie again yet fighting against needing anyone and putting up a front so no one sees the yearning inside. It irritates Jack that Zero can see that and does everything he can to support him. Then, when Jack starts to feel things for Zero, we see that Zero himself is also more vulnerable and insecure than we'd thought. The emotional connection these two develop and the pacing of that in its ebbs and flows through the story were fantastic.

Jack and Zero's story will have you rooting for them. Jack just got released from prison and has a few secrets he has kept from his friends and family. He's also angry, frustrated and scared. Zero knows how Jack feels and tries to help him but Jack keeps pushing him away. There is chemistry between these two, which you can see throughout the book. There are a lot of twists and turns in this book, action-packed, romantic, and with some angst, and I enjoyed this book as much as I did the first one. We also discover that Jack has a few tricks up his sleeves and he would do anything to protect his family.

Jack and Zero’s dynamic takes time to take shape, and it works for the characters and where they are, literally and metaphorically– Jack is just out of prison and struggling, Zero has plenty of empathy and the patience to weather the initial distrust and projected anger. Both characters have baggage, both have challenges (keeping this vague to avoid spoilers) and both manage to become, somehow, amidst it all, pretty much exactly what the other needs. As individuals and a pairing, they’re compelling. The story has few dull moments, and overall, it makes for an immersive read.

Zero was a convicted murderer. He killed his foster dad in cold blood because he molested his foster sister. Turned out, Zero was a victim of his foster dad himself.

Meanwhile Jack was sentenced to prison because he took the fall of someone's else fault, Helena, Jack's next door neighbor. After his released, Jack felt alone, isolated from his twin brother and the club but he pretend everything was fine and the only one who sees his pain was Zero.

Zero knew prison's life was hard so he felt the connection to Jack and he sees what Jack tried to hide. Zero and Jack were good to each other.

One thing confused me was Rick, who is he?

Im not sure why I didnt enjoy this book as much as the rest of the Kings...
Zero seems like a contradictory character.. He is overly sweet and too observant to have missed the abuse of his foster sister, esp if he could see through all of Jacks behaviour and he was a stranger.

As for Jack... I understood the anger and why he did what he did. Both in prison and out. He definately felt betrayed by his family.

Jack is angry, defensive, and hostile. How he felt and how he acted out was very realistic for someone right out of jail who felt betrayed by his own people. Zero is new to the club and is drawn to Jack despite how Jack lashes out at him. Their relationship had a very realistic feel to it rather being an instant love. Zero is quite sweet and patient and it is worth the effort as Jack starts to let his guard down.

Zero and Jack 🔥
3.5 Stars ⭐️

This was a great addition to this series. It was a bit insta love/ attraction that went full steam ahead...ahem...steamy times ahead, I mean 😉 I'm not gonna lie... it didn't matter because it had hotter than hell bikers and some mystery that sucked me right in plus a side of hurt comfort and love ❤️ I would definitely recommend especially for series fans.

Zero and Jack finally

Seemed like it took forever to get Zero and Jack, but it was worth the wait. While the HEA after is expected, it's always great to see each book in the series have their own 'story'. Zero wants to save the world but does not believe he deserves anything good. Jack also in trying to protect others has become a bit of an a$$. These two need each other, and hopefully, they can survive the threats that might keep them apart.

The Salvation Kings MC series is good from book 1 to this book. There is some action, drama, and steamy love. Both Zero and Jack didn't think they deserved love since both were in prison, but together, there was no one better.

This is the first book of the series that I have read, and although I normally don't like MC's I found the blurb on this book drew me in. I enjoyed it and I loved both main characters--in fact all of the characters were great. Story was well written, and I like the twist at the end. Recommend reading.

Zero and Jack sort of snuck up out of nowhere to claim the favourite crown and I was totally okay with it. This entire series was a good, easy read, with enough angst and twists to keep it interesting and a whole lotta spice. You could also tell the writing had gotten better as the books progressed and I loved seeing that too. I am eager to start devouring the spin-off Kings Disciples.

He has just come out of prison and he knows he needs to make amends for what he has done. He goes to his gang and starts to try to repair the damage. A new man is there who makes him cross but who helps them out. What is going to happen? How will it all go? See just where it will all end

The relationship between jack and zero ends up being so sweet. Jack was in prison for something he didn't do, zero needed a roommate. Eventually Jack feels he can trust zero and they end up with a very very happy ending. I lived for the evolution between our characters. I hope Ricky gets a story!

Zero and Jack were great together after a rough start. Zero was so sweet and I enjoyed watching Jack struggle to overcome his anger to eventually appreciate how wonderful Zero was. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

This was a really good finish to the series although I’d have liked to see a little recap on how each couple are doing. My heart aches for both Jack and Zero and I was happy to see them find love.

This was so boring. There was nothing gritty about it like you'd expect from an MC based story. The progression is stilted and unnatural. There is no chemistry between the mains what so ever. No thank you.
