Beyond the Cut was the story of Cade and Dawn. Castille did a good job of weaving the MC lifestyle into the romance, but Dawn's constant indecision about Cade and the club became a little annoying. Also, the club's lack of support for Cade and his issues with Mad Dog who was the member of a rival club and also Dawn's ex made the Sinners seem a little wishy washy regarding protection of their own. This book wasn't quite as good as the first book in this series. Hopefully the next book, Sinner's Steel, will be more in line with the first book. ( )

Okay so as some of you may know by my updates....this book was a rough one. Usually I can't wait to sink my teeth into a book and get lost in the story. Well this one didn't do it for me.
Dawn, our leading lady, had the misfortune of being a runaway who went from one tragic incident to a dangerous one with a lunatic outlaw biker that she married, had children with, then divorced after hitting her wasn't enough but he had to take his hand to their daughters. She vows off bikers. Mad Dog, the ex from hell, uses dirty money and dirtier friends in influential places to claim she is an unfit mother and strip her of her girls. Oh yes, then he "gives" them to his drug dealing, stealing sister to care for them. Shelly Anne, the sister, then proceeds to blackmail Dawn...you want more time with your girls, pay me (fill in a dollar amount) and I'll give you two more hours.
Cade was a two night stand that Dawn ran away from. Something about him made her rethink the whole stay away from bikers rule she had given herself. Of course Cade and his brothers, The Sinner's, are nothing like the bikers she has known before. (A band of brothers consisting mostly from vets they all have their scars and demons, what woman can tame such a man.) When things happen and Mad Dog becomes untouchable Cade has the brilliant idea for Dawn's safety; make her his old lady. Um, hasn't she been saying from page 1 that's the last thing she wanted. And she goes for it....WTH?
She becomes strong under his protective watch and learns to stand up for herself. Her fieriness turns him on 24/7. The bad guy makes one wrong move too many and gets dealt with. See a pattern here? I think I may have MC book burn out. Whatever the case may be this is going to be the last of this kind for a while. Hopefully you'll enjoy it more than I did. Good luck and good reading. ( )

Cade is in an outlaw MC, Dawn is an ex old lady from a rival MC, with twin daughters her ex has taken from her by setting her up. Dawn's ex is also determined to get her back to abuse her even more. These two can't be in the same room without things getting hot, but she was terribly abused and doesn't want anything to do with the biker lifestyle again. Yet she's biker chick through and through. This isn't a pretty biker group, they break the law and kill but the story is compelling and I read it straight through.

I love this series. This is Cade's story. He's hot for Dawn but does not know her ex-husband, Jimmy, is in a rival MC and looking to up his position in the club. When Jimmy crosses the line, Cade does what he must to keep Dawn and her girls safe.

I like Cade. He does not always do what he should via the MC code but he will keep those he deems his safe. I loved his scene with Dawn's daughters when they ask about his protection then the subsequent scene where he shows them what he'll do. It's a classic that will steal your heart. Not only is he battling rival gangs but also a cop who wants to be more to Dawn. I enjoyed that Jagger questioned his motives. Good charact4ers and good story line.

This is an excellent series and I cannot wait for the next installment. ( )
