Breezy Simmons was born into a ruthless motorcycle club—and now that she’s out, she’s never going to be that girl again. But when her past catches up with her, Breezy must go to Sea Haven to seek out the man who almost destroyed her. The man who chose his club over her and left her feeling used and alone.
As vice president of Torpedo Ink, Steele is ride or die for the brothers he lived through hell with. He never thought he’d find something as pure as his feelings for Breezy, or that keeping her safe would mean driving her away with cruel words that turned her love for him to ash.
Now, Steele won’t let her walk away twice. He’ll do whatever it takes to make Breezy his woman again—especially when he learns the real reason, she came to him for help, and that the stakes are higher than he ever could have imagined…
________________________________________________________________
This is a series I read and recommend with caution. MC romance series tend to be darker and can be harder to understand and get through. Vengeance Road pushes limits and is one you need to tread lightly with, with an open mind.
Both Steele and Breezy have tragic histories and survived trauma anything beyond your wildest dreams. Steele is the VP of Torpedo Ink, and one of eighteen who survived from his Russian ‘school’ that set out to make him and every member of Torpedo Ink into assassins. Breezy Simmons grew up in the MC where she was treated as nothing more than a mere object, used only to benefit the club.
This is a second-chance story for both Breezy and Steele. Three years prior, Steele sent Breezy away, both unaware of the secrets the other kept. Fast-forward to current times, Breezy has come to Steele, desperate for this assistance in finding her son, their son.
While Torpedo Ink rallies to find young Zane, Breezy and Steele struggle to come to terms with happened three years prior and this is where I begin to struggle. Steele, and other members of Torpedo Ink, expect and demand that their women follow their demands. I give all the heroines credit, they do attempt to stand up to their ‘old man’, but eventually, cave to their demands. That’s not to say these women are weak, in their own ways, in Breezy’s case it was the time spent away from Steele that makes her capable of putting up with his demands, while also balancing dealing with his PTSD. In the end, they do get their happily ever after, but it’s hard to accept this ending knowing what I do about Breezy’s protests and concerns.
I will continue to read this series, for the mere fact I’m interested to see what happens with other members of Torpedo Ink, but I won’t be in a rush to go the bookstore when new ones are released.
