DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO 1-35?

It will take you to Austin, Texas, where there's an MC with real men who love real women and know how to get shit done.

The year when the biker massacre occurred in Waco, Texas, I had people ask me about it wherever I went because I live a couple of hours from there. I would always tell them there's a reason why Texans call it "wacko". But I was also perversely intrigued by the facts of what had happened; who, what, where, how, etc. When I say that this book is loosely DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO 1-35?

But I was also perversely intrigued by the facts of what had happened; who, what, where, how, etc. When I say that this book is loosely based on real events, I mean really, really, really loosely.

The Romance: I love romance that surprises the couple themselves. Win wasn't looking and, in fact, thinks fate has picked the least opportune time possible to show him somebody interesting. R.C. thinks what she wants is pretty much the opposite of Win Garrett; a nice clean cut corporate executive with seven figure potential. In a sense, we know her better than she knows herself because we suspect Win is perfect for her. Considering that possibility takes some doing because, for most of her life, she's been committed to the idea of a future with money and without bikers.

The Ugly Stuff I used the subplot of sex trafficking because I wanted to call attention to the danger, in case some are still unaware. Devil's Marker addresses this topic that should be a concern to all, but especially those of us who have loved ones who are young women. They are at risk no matter who or where they are.

When I was still playing with my band, my lead guitar's whole family was involved with combating sex trafficking in Conroe, Texas, a far northern suburb of Houston. The fact that it's not the sort of place where you'd expect this kind of thing highlights the fact that it's prevalent in a truly scary way. One of the reasons why the practice is growing is because so many of us would rather pretend we live in Mayberry RFD, where the idea of daughters, granddaughters, nieces, cousins, or (as the book says) the cashier at the H.E.B. being abducted is unthinkable.

Are there really bad guys out there who are our real life super heroes? I don't know. It's a fantasy. ...more

WOW! Victoria Does it again! This book is very edgy and full of intrigue. Win is very likable yet still what I would picture an MC member to be like. As per usual for my reaction to a VD book. I laughed out loud, Gasped, sat on the edge of my seat, and Cried. But this time it was a happy cry. For those of you that are Daddy's little girl, you also will cry. Love the new characters we are introduced to. It helps a bit if you have read the other SSMC books, but it can be read as a Stand Alone. Win ...more

What a ride!! Danann knows how to create characters that get under your skin and into your heart. She does this all while giving you a story with some twists, a few heated moments and romance. Oh, and a storyline that is unique and fresh. I have never been disappointed in a single one of Danann’s books. I do have favorites and Devils Marker is right up there in the top 3-4. These Sons of Sanctuary books are beginning to rival the Black Swan series!! And they get better with each book. Do yoursel ...more

It is not possible to pick this book up and not want to put it down again until you have read the whole darn thing. The comedy and romance are perfectly entertaining. Even with the danger in the mix it has a lighthearted feel. I had a coworker want to know what I was sitting there by myself laughing about. Love this new edition to the SOS series.

PART OF A SERIES

This is the fourth in Victoria Danann's Sons of Sanctuary series. You can read it without having read the others, but she is such a good story teller you will be missing out if you just read one. I will start off my saying I am not attracted to the motorcycle culture. Despite this, I have truly enjoyed each of the book and become involved in the characters.

Win has left his old club in California and returned to Texas. He hopes to find peace and quiet with Sons of Sanctuary. Howe ...more

Another fantastic book by Victoria Danann

What a wonderful book Devil's Marker is. I couldn't put it down. There was humor, suspense, sex, and lots of action. Not your typical biker book. Win is a character you can't help but root for and fall for. You can try and figure out the ending, hope for what you want to happen...but until you get there you just don't know how it will turn out. Victoria Danann has a way of writing that makes you feel like you're in the scene with all the players. That to ...more

Biker gangs conjure up rough and tough men who quite frankly can be scary. Victoria's biker series is quite the opposite where men are tough but are willing to put everything on the line to protect those they care about, be it family by blood or love. This story however has both types of biker gangs and for a time to be honest I was a little uncomfortable with the line the story was taking. Then I remembered that the plot was loosely based on actual events, then the reading became serious even t ...more

Win is a winner!

Win really wants to be free and just be an accountant but he also wants to do what is right, even if it does cost him. Victoria always gives us characters that are winners.

Win is a definite win-win situation. Leaving one California MC's, to go find one that he was comfortable in, trying to get away from a violent life. Enter the Sons of Sanctuary where he is accepted.

And the daughter of the Marauder's President, RC just wants to find a man who is upstanding, who doesn't ride bikes, oh by the way he has to have at least $3,000,000.....yes three million dollars.

Brand has a marker pulled, from a Texas Ranger no less............which puts Win back into a violent life. ...more

If I could give more than 5 stars, this book would certainly deserve them. It’s book #4 in author Victoria Danann’s outstanding Sons of Sanctuary series, and it’s a fantastic read! We learn the tale of Win Garrett, a new member of SSMC, financial whiz and pretty boy extraordinaire. We also meet the new crew, The Marauders, a not always legal motorcycle club out of Waco. When rumors of a big showdown reach Brant, the leader of SSMC, he sends Win on an assignment. Win’s assignment could lead to gr ...more

Firstly I wish to thank Victoria Danann for yet another fantastic all night read.

Win has to go and join The Marauders, the sister club of his old club, and get as much info as he can on the war that is brewing between them & another club called The Stars and Bars. So in he ...more

Once again Ms. Danann brings us well-drawn, multi-faceted characters and a story that keeps you turning the pages until you reach 'The End.' Win and R. C. meet when she slams open the door to her dad's office and right into Win's face. With a war brewing between MC clubs its the worse time to get involved with someone...especially when that someone is the Prez's daughter........... ...more
