Whiskey Neat (Uncertain Saint's MC #1) by Lani Lynn Vale @LaniLynnVale

This series started off with a bang. Griffin and Lenore were a riot together. From their initial meeting which had me in stitches to their passionate journey through ups and downs I was hooked. Lani changed things up quite a bit with this new cast of characters. While she kept true to the spirit she keeps in all her books ..loyal characters and suspenseful plots..this one had an edge. These heroes are going to come very close to the line of right and wrong but you'll love them even more for it.   I was seriously holding on tight to my kindle wondering what Griffin would do next. But one thing that kept me smiling was the crazy and funny banter between these two. It wasn't all smiles and jokes though. Oh my Griffin.  This deeply intriguing hero had demons and it looks like all of these gruff yet deeply enigmatic men of the Uncertain Saints will have their past battles to wage. For Griffin it was tragedy that no person should have to suffer. Lenore along with some batteries shined light into his life in more ways than he expected. While there were times Griffin played the martyr, Lenore didn't stand by and take it. Which makes all the difference for me in any book where there is what I call "pushing away" .. This feisty heroine fought for her man. She didn't chase him..she laid BAIT.. and well when it was time she caught HIM forever.     Staying loyal and true to each other through it they fought their fight till the final bell and the victory was a beautiful life.  I'm curious to see all the ways Lani will heal these broken men and the women to provide the best medicine. Love ..

Right To My Wrong (The Heroes of The Dixie Wardens MC #8) by Lani Lynn Vale @lanilynnvale

Lani how do you do it? Every time you breathe life into a new couple I think wow I'm not sure who is my favorite. I absolutely can't describe properly how much I loved Sterling. He was simply such a great man.  He truly was a hero in every way.   A TRUE STERLING EXAMPLE   The fact he came from a crappy childhood to a life of a Navy Seal showed true steel.  In between he grew the bonds of friendship and brotherhood with his team's from the military and his biker brothers. But also his foster brothers. I cried millions of tears and my heart still aches. I thought that Ruthie was so supportive yet at the same time vulnerable enough to bring out Sterling's protective side.  I adored how pleased this alpha male felt each time Ruthie claimed him in even the smallest ways. Ruthie could've crumbled under the devastation she lived through. But her character was through and through built on strength and persevering. I rooted for these two from the start all the way through. I can't say enough how deeply this romance lover appreciated the lack of drama that some books are filled with nowadays. This author is talented enough to create stories based on trials that bring her couples closer together. Not unnecessary issues that just weaken the love story. I absolutely loved so many moments and I devoured this book like all the prior ones. Little surprises and perfect epilogue left me smiling for sure. Another 5 star winner Lani.
