Blog Tour Review & Giveaway: One Ride – Chelsea Camaron

Title: One Ride (The Hellions Ride, #1)

Author: Chelsea Cameron

Release Date: December 19, 2013

Blurb

Delilah “Doll” Reklinger never imagined her life with anyone that wasn’t a Hellion. She never imagined there would be a Hellion that could prove himself worthy enough to her father, Roundman, Hellions Club President. Content in living in the bubble of safety the motorcycle club family has always provided, Doll never thought that danger surrounded her. 

Roundman has kept the Hellions contained for the last thirty years by controlling the chaos surrounding their lifestyle. When the dangerous side to their business comes knocking on his door, he realizes his precious Doll isn’t safe. The Hellions code may be that women and children are off limits in any altercation or dispute, but that doesn’t mean their enemies follow that same moral compass.

His only child, now in danger from the association to him and his club, Roundman makes a decision. He sends her away with a charter club member that he trusts, in hopes that the trouble won’t follow.

One ride across the country. One simple ride.

Talon “Tripp” Crews has been ordered to take Doll on one ride away and to keep her safe. She’s off limits. His head knows this, but his body can’t deny the attraction. She’s feisty, fierce, and fearless. 

Constantly in close confines together, can they deny the chemistry? Will they give into the desire? Can one ride turn lust into love?

Reviewer’s Thoughts

I do love a good MC romance and Chelsea Camaron totally surprised me with this one.  She created some really wonderful characters that had me hooked and wanting more.

I loved Doll and Tripp.  You could tell the instant these two saw each other at a Hellion party they were going to have chemistry….and they really did.  But more than that, they connected on an emotional level.  They understood each other and more importantly, they understood the MC rules that they had to live under.  Doll was the President’s daughter, therefore she was untouchable.  Tripp knew that and he did his best to abide by those rules, no matter how much it tore him up.  And it’s in those moments that you fall irrevocably for Tripp.

The storyline that sent Tripp and Doll on their “one ride” was interesting and definitely gave a reason for the two of them to be “locked up” with one another.  But I wanted the big showdown to happen with Tripp and Doll there, with Tripp maybe needing to do something to save Doll’s life, rather than the two of them roaming across the country somewhat safe and sound.

My only wish for the story was more dialogue with the characters.  We spent a lot of time inside the head of Tripp and Doll.  And while I still loved them as a couple, I think more honest dialogue between the two, talking about mundane things or sharing bits about themselves would have turned this into a 5 star review.

An awesome start to the series.  The next book, FOREVER RIDE, centers around Tank and Sass, which promises to be even better.  Definitely a series to pick up.

Forever Ride (Hellions Ride, #2)

About the Author

Chelsea Camaron was born and raised in Coastal North Carolina. She currently resides in Southern Louisiana with her husband and two children but her heart is always Carolina day dreaming. 

Chelsea always wanted to be a writer, but like most of us, let fear of the unknown grab a hold of her dream; she realized that if she was going to tell her daughter to go for her dreams, that it was time to follow her own advice. 

Chelsea grew up turning wrenches alongside her father, and from that grew her love for old muscle cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles, which just so happened to inspired her ‘Daddy’s Girls’ series. Her love for reading has sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in the works. 

When she is not spending her days writing you can find her playing with her kids, attending car shows, going on motorcycle rides on the back of her husband’s Harley, snuggling down with her new favorite book or watching any movie that Vin Diesel might happen to be in.

She hates being serious and is still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and, Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to always have fun.
