Title: Rough Riot Author: Karen Renee Series: Riot MC #7 Genre: Contemporary MC Romance
An angry biker at a crossroads. A woman in search of a fresh start.
Lisa Wenhold’s business partner stole everything. Her dreams of opening her own business are ripped away when she learns the debt he owes to a local motorcycle club now falls to her. With her brother being a member of a rival club, going to him would start a war between the two MCs. She thinks she has a solution, until a sexy biker with a surly disposition saunters into her life…
Rage has never met a woman as feisty, proud, and determined as Lisa. Nor has he ever fought this hard against such a fierce attraction. Even so, resistance is crucial considering she’s the sister to one of his biker brothers. He’s instructed to protect her, and he’ll honor his word. But things are getting harder by the day…
Falling into bed together is unexpected, in the best way imaginable.
“Bullshit. How’s that old saying go? Pride goeth before the fall. That’s gonna be you. Except you could prevent it.”
Her lips quirked and he caught the hint of a dimple. “Biker and philosopher.”
He glowered.
She gestured around the room. “So, as you can see, I’m safely home. Thanks for sticking around. I suspect you also did it in case Scott came back. I appreciate that. And so would Cynic.”
Rage’s chest jerked with a silent chuckle. “No, he wouldn’t.”
“Pardon me?”
“He’d appreciate it if I got you the fuck out of this hellhole. When he finds out where you’re staying, he’s gonna lose his fucking mind.”
“He already knows where I’m staying. It’s cool.”
“The fuck it is. You better sleep with that taser and your knife under your pillow.”
“Will do, big man.”
“I’m serious.”
She nodded. “So am I. Drive safely.”
At the door, he turned to her. “Anyone in the Riot offers you a free room… take it. Don’t view it as charity. It’s hospitality. Put your safety before your pride.”
Her expression shifted toward embarrassment, and maybe even shame. He felt like a jackass for that, but she needed to see reality.
Karen Renee is the author of the Riot Motorcycle Club, Beta, and O-Town series of books. She once crunched Nielsen ratings data but these days she brings her imagination to life by writing books. She has wanted to be a writer since she was very young, but it’s taken the last twenty plus years for her to amass enough courage and overall life experience to bring that dream to life. Some of those life experiences came from the wonderful world of advertising, banking, and local television media research. She is a proud wife and mother, and a Jacksonville native. When she’s not at the soccer field or cooking, you can find her at her local library, the grocery store, in her car jamming out to some tunes, or hibernating while she writes and/or reads books.

I fell in love with Jackson Moreno in hell, the only two survivors trapped in a catastrophic tunnel collapse. But when rescue comes, I discover he has secrets darker than I could have guessed. He disappears from my life as quickly as he came, and I can’t afford to chase after him when I have to raise my daughter alone.
I fell in love with Jackson Moreno six years later, on a bright summer afternoon, cleaning the lobby of a small-town bank. But he’s still running, and I’m struggling to keep my little family afloat.
I fell in love with Jackson Moreno in three feet of snow, surrounded by garbage and filth, after we lost everything. Because sometimes a tatted bad boy and a shy dad who loves knitting are destined to be together, no matter how many years and miles and memories pull us apart. No matter how many times we have to start over.
If we refuse to be broken, I believe someday we’ll find each other for the last time.
An epic, moving story of second chances and love that defies all odds, featuring a double gay for you relationship full of first times, hurt/comfort, a demisexual main character, and mental health representation.
