Fiction. Literature. Romance. He was my boss, my brother's friend, a Widow, an ex-felon, and a man I'd seen casually with a handful of women. But he was everything that gripped me, both the good and the bad. Worst case scenario: if things turned awkward between us, I could go somewhere else. I'd gotten over epic heartbreak before; one more wouldn't kill me. After moving to Austin following six months of unemployment back home, Iris Taylor knows she should be glad to have landed a job so quickly . . . even if the business is owned by a member of the same motorcycle club her estranged father used to belong to. Except Dex Locke might just be the biggest jerk she's ever met. He's rude and impatient, and he doesn't know how to tell time. And the last thing they ever expected was each other. Contains mature themes.… (plus d'informations)

This is a slow burn romance. I loved the characters and this author knows how to develop a character and story so that it all gets under your skin in the best way. This is not a series, but there are several minor characters that I would love to read further about. I know a book is great when you are not ready to leave them. ( )

I skimmed past the last 1/4 of this book. It was just so fucking slow and the chapters were repetitive and the plot advanced every 50 pages instead of every 20. Like, I know that Mariana Zapata is the slowburn queen, but BRO this was just fucking slowwww. Boring as. I felt as if the whole book and concept of slow burn has a plot of "the journey to the first time they fuck". Like, the plot just works up towards that moment, and after, the book has nothing left to give. Yes, it has this side plot with all the mafia shit, but I don't know if it's me, but I just wasn't interested in this whole Widowmakers Bicycle Club. Didn't really like this book, and it just might've ruined my perception of slow burn books. ALSO - the main heroine is an imbecile. Couldn't stand her inner dialogues. Just plain boring. ( )

This one didn't do it for me.
*Grammar check, anyone?
*Way too long. Slow burn is one thing, but could someone please fan that ember?
*Too much preoccupation and whining about her arm. Yeah, stuff happens but get over yourself. Nobody is paying that much attention to you.
*How many times can you say "sperm donor" and a few other not-so-classy words for body parts???? ( )

This was a 4.5 during the first half. I couldn't put it down even with lots of writing flaws. I did get really tired of Iris's gagging....really?? I liked the idea of him being a dick at first and having to win her over. The problem is....it took WAY too long for them to become romantic. It's almost like it was going to be a Y/A book with cussing/sexual thoughts. Iris was a bit too immature to believe at times. I don't think a hot guy who is hit on by most every female is going to sit around waiting to actually have sex with a 24 year old virgin. I don't have to have every aspect of a book something I believe in (i.e. Vampires) but stories like this have to at least make sense to me! Anyway, I started to get bored at about 60%...not enough going on for my taste. I was skimming a lot to get to the end. ( )

I don't know what to say...
From "fleshly valuables" to saying "babe" on every page, the writing leaves much to be desired.
While the premise was interesting, the delivery was just not it and I will excuse Mariana because this was her debut novel. Thankfully her writing has improved because this book was a no for me. ( )
