Blurb:

Sometimes the heart wants what it can’t have.

That’s the motto Silas Mackenzie, the president of The Dixie Wardens MC, has lived by since he was a young man.

Now he’s well on the way to middle age, has three grown children and he’s lusting after a woman he should definitely stay away from.

Especially not one that his ex-girlfriend had given birth to, and happens to be only twenty-nine years old.

Sawyer isn’t a young girl at heart, though.

She’s seen the inside of a jail cell for eight long years, and every one of them was spent paying for a crime she didn’t commit.

Silas Mackenzie knows as soon as he sees her that the she has sacrificed enough. 

And maybe…just maybe…so has he.

It’s time for Silas Mackenzie to get what he deserves, and, in the process, put a little bit of happy back into Sawyer’s world, one rough, bearded kiss at a time.   

Resenha em português e inglês / Review in Portuguese and English.

O personagem Silas aparece desde o início da série, afinal ele é o presidente do Dixie Wardens MC e um ex-agente da CIA  com amigos e conexões em todos lugares. Sempre tive grande curiosidade sobre ele, afinal ele é pai de três dos protagonistas de livros anteriores e um macho alfa de primeira qualidade.

Ele sempre foi muito misterioso e badass!

Nossa heroína Sawyer é filha de uma ex namorada dele... Você já viu o problema que vai causar! 

Ela é uma jovem que tinha um grande futuro pela frente e acaba se envolvendo em um acidente de trânsito onde 4 pessoas perdem a vida e ela é condenada a 8 anos de prisão. Ela passa de moça inocente e cheia de planos para o futuro para uma presidiária tendo que lutar pela integridade física dela diariamente.

Nossa história tem flashbacks do que aconteceu no passado e daí ela sai da cadeia e tem que enfrentar a hostilidade e o julgamento das pessoas, a falta de amigos e o abandono do namorado cheater, falta de perspectiva e traumas psicológicos.

Ela enfrenta uma situação bem pesada, mas ela começa um relacionamento com nosso macho alfa gostosão e a vida dela começa a melhorar.

Adorei conhecer mais profundamente a personalidade e as motivações de Silas e ver a interação dele com uma mulher com idade para ser filha dele, mas que tem maturidade suficiente para segurar a onda.

A história é recheada de cenas bem quentes entre o herói e a heroína e temos ainda um inimigo do passado de Silas que reaparece para se vingar causando muita ação e violência.

Também temos a participação dos filhos de Silas e dos membros do moto clube. Todas cenas muito especiais e bem escritas.

E o final é realmente muito doce!

Recomendo muito a série toda!

  --------------------

The character Silas appears since the beginning of the series, he is the President of Dixie Wardens MC and a former CIA operative with friends and connections everywhere. I've always had great curiosity about him, after all he is the father of three of the main characters from previous books and an alpha male.

He's always been very mysterious and badass!

Our heroine Sawyer is the daughter of a former girlfriend. Have you ever seen the problem that will cause! She is a young girl who had a great future ahead of her and she ends up getting involved in a traffic accident where 4 people lose their lives and she is sentenced to 8 years in prison. She goes from innocent girl and full of plans for the future to an inmate having to fight for her physical integrity daily.

Our history has flashbacks of what happened in the past and then she gets out of jail and have to face the hostility and judgment of the people, the lack of friends and the abandonment of the cheater boyfriend, lack of perspective and psychological trauma.

She faces a heavy situation, but she begins a relationship with our alpha male Hottie and her life begins to improve.

I loved to know more deeply the personality and motivations of Silas and view his interaction with a woman old enough to be his daughter, but mature enough to handle it.

The story is filled with hot scenes between the hero and the heroine and we still have an enemy from the past of Silas who reappears to take revenge on causing a lot of action and violence.

We also have the participation of the sons of Silas and members of the motorcycle club. All very special scene and well written.

And the ending is really sweet!

I highly recommend the whole series!
