Cover Description:
Ambitious young attorney Tina Bethel doesn’t have time for commitment, but she wouldn’t pass up some hot, no-strings sex with the right guy—like Sons of Odin officer Vincent Ramos. Six feet, five inches of solid muscle and biker masculinity, he revs Tina up like no man ever has. The trouble is, every time they get physical, Tina’s cravings are never quenched—because Vincent always pumps the brakes before the point of no return.
With her sexy body packaged in a short skirt, Tina’s enough to drive any man crazy. Vincent isn’t sure how he’s resisted her shameless come-ons. He just knows that if he gives in, he won’t be able to stop—and after two failed marriages, he can’t afford any more broken promises. But when a disgruntled client of Tina’s starts stalking her, Vincent has to make up his mind about his true feelings—fast. Because if he’s willing to put his body in the line of fire, he should be able to risk his heart in the name of love.
Series includes: Persuasion, Possession with more to come
The Sons of Odin series continues with Possession, Tina and Vincent’s story. No two Motorcycle Club Romance series are going to be the same, every author puts their own unique spin on the genre. I enjoy Violetta Rand’s spin. The focus is more on the couple and their lives which is something I’m enjoying in this series.
Tina had met Vincent at Lily and Lang’s wedding. With a bit of liquid fortification, she made a move on the sexy biker. Her seduction didn’t go very far that night but what a scorching kiss. While Vincent might be wanting more, he’s holding back because he’s got a sense that this woman could matter and he won’t take that risk ever again. With two failed marriages behind him, Vincent is convinced that love is just not in the cards for him. And while Tina might want only a sexual encounter in her mind, Vincent can see himself wanting so much more… and he’s just not cut out for it, in his mind.
A few months later, Tina is out at a bar when a former client she’d defended makes a move on her which she kindly rebuffed. Unfortunately this scumbag doesn’t take no for an answer. Once she realized she was being followed she headed to the club’s bar and hopefully the safety of it’s members. Vincent finds the one woman he’d like to take under his protection in danger in the club’s parking lot… there’s no way he can walk way from her now.
I really liked this couple. Vincent is so convinced that he’s worthless at relationships when neither failed marriage was his fault, but he’s shouldered the entire blame. Tina knows exactly what she wants – Vincent – and she’s strong, stubborn and feisty enough to go after what she desires. Let’s face it, Vincent never had a chance.
Possession will take us through some emotional moments, some dangerous ones as well. Through it all the passion and affection of this couple is obvious. I would have no trouble recommending this story and this series to any reader who loves MC Romance or simply Romance in general. Sizzling and steamy at times, deeply loving at others and always with a dangerous feel – Possession is one of those stories you won’t soon forget.
*I received an e-ARC of Possession from the publisher, Random House Publishing – Loveswept and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. That does not change what I think of this novel.*
