**** Guys I'm so sorry I haven't reviewed in a while! The whole first half of July I was once again in a major book slump! I hate them so much. What do you do when you're in a slump?****
Description: Sinning never felt so good…
A fortuitous encounter.
A meeting that should never have happened.
Many years ago, two children from completely different worlds forged a connection, a fateful connection, an unbreakable bond that would change their lives forever…
Salome knows only one way to live—under Prophet David’s rule. In the commune she calls home, Salome knows nothing of life beyond her strict faith, nor of life beyond the Fence—the fence that cages her, keeps her trapped in an endless cycle of misery. A life she believes she is destined to always lead, until a horrific event sets her free.
Fleeing the absolute safety of all she has ever known, Salome is thrust into the world outside, a frightening world full of uncertainty and sin; into the protective arms of a person she believed she would never see again.
River ‘Styx’ Nash knows one thing for certain in life—he was born and bred to wear a cut. Raised in a turbulent world of sex, Harleys, and drugs, Styx, unexpectedly has the heavy burden of the Hades Hangmen gavel thrust upon him, and all at the ripe old age of twenty-six—much to his rivals’ delight.
Haunted by a crushing speech impediment, Styx quickly learns to deal with his haters. Powerful fists, an iron jaw and the skillful use of his treasured German blade has earned him a fearsome reputation as a man not to be messed with in the shadowy world of outlaw MC’s. A reputation that successfully keeps most people far, far away.
Styx has one rule in life—never let anyone get too close. It’s a plan that he has stuck to for years, that is, until a young woman is found injured on his lot… a woman who looks uncannily familiar, a woman who clearly does not belong in his world, yet a woman he feels reluctant to let go…
So this book was my first Tillie Colle book. I was lucky enough to meet her in April at a book signing and picked this particular book up! My sister told me I had to read it and boy was she right!
I don't usually read MC books *Though I have no idea why not.....* I instantly fell in love with the sexy Hangman Styx. He is everything you want in a book boyfriend and more.
The start of this book is a flash back to when Styx and Mae are children its an instant connection between them. Fast forward and poor Mae is attempting to leave her "commune" lets just say its purely a cult and nothing else. After escaping she finds herself in the den of none other than the Hangmen. She is found by The Hangman Mute (styx) When she wakes up he is so happy to see the Girl with the wolf eyes. He has been thinking about her for the last 15 years. *Feel free to swoon here*
“Mae was mine. Fifteen long years of wanting her to be mine, and here she sat, curled up in my arms – a fuckin’ angel in hell.”
He is happy to have her there, but she's terrified because the simple cult life is all she's used too. She sees everything the Hangmen are doing as a sin. *Which just leads them to be more sexy.* She finds a fast friend in one of the other Hangmen Rider. *I make no comments other than hes hot and be ready for the "Ride" of your life with Rider.*
“Styx was sin; Rider was peace.”
As the book goes on Mae realizes that her love for Styxs is stronger than all the brainwashing the Cult did to her. “Because if Styx was damned to hell, so was I. I would follow him into the fire.”
And when she gets taken from Styx's he will do whatever it takes to get her back to him.
This book was full of amazing romance and sexy men. I fell in love with several of the characters and was so happy to find out the had books in this series as well. Seriously if you are in need of a new book boyfriend who will blow all of the other ones out of the water go get this book!
“It’s me babe... Ain’t no other man for you... but me.”
I have already finished the second book in this series and I'm onto the third. I am beyond in love with this series. I love these Hangmen I wish I could be with all of them ;)
