Lucy’s Thoughts
Vicious Cycle kicks off an exciting new series by Katie Ashley featuring the Hells Raiders motorcycle club. Deacon is the Sargent at Arms who gets the surprise of his life when he discovers he has a five year old girl, Willow, he knew nothing about. Alexandra is Willowβs teacher who crosses path with Deacon in her quest to make sure her young student is well taken care of.
Deacon was a little rough around the edges, but there was no mistaking the fact that he loved his family and would stop at nothing to protect them. This protection extends to Alexandra even when she is nothing more than his childβs teacher. I admired Alexandraβs strength, and her ability to hold her own in an environment that would have intimidated any man, and the way she loved and cared for Willow was priceless. This book had it all- a little suspense, sexual tension, an adorable little girl who has her dad wrapped around her little finger, secondary characters that make you want to live in their world, and an epilogue that leaves you wishing for the next one!
