Ride Hard 

(Raven Riders MC #1)

by Laura Kaye 

Mass Market Paperback, 320 pages

Expected publication: April 26th 2016 by Avon

ISBN 0062403338 

Brotherhood. Club. Family.
They live and ride by their own rules.
These are the Raven Riders…

Raven Riders Motorcycle Club President Dare Kenyon rides hard and values loyalty above all else. He’ll do anything to protect the brotherhood of bikers—the only family he’s got—as well as those who can’t defend themselves. So when mistrustful Haven Randall lands on the club’s doorstep scared that she’s being hunted, Dare takes her in, swears to keep her safe, and pushes to learn the secrets overshadowing her pretty smile.

Haven fled from years of abuse at the hands of her criminal father and is suspicious of any man’s promises, including those of the darkly sexy and overwhelmingly intense Ravens’ leader. But as the powerful attraction between them flares to life, Dare pushes her boundaries and tempts her to want things she never thought she could.

The past never dies without a fight, but Dare Kenyon’s never backed down before…

A woman’s work

Amy Slaten has devoted her life to Slaten Industries. After ousting her corrupt father and taking over the CEO role, she thought she could relax and enjoy taking her company to the next level. But an old business rivalry rears its ugly head. The only thing that can possibly take her mind off business is the training class at Sanctum…and her training partner, the gorgeous and funny Flynn Adler. If she can just manage to best her mysterious business rival, life might be perfect.

A man’s commitment

Flynn Adler never thought he would fall for the enemy. Business is war, or so his father always claimed. He was raised to be ruthless when it came to the family company, and now he’s raising his brother to one day work with him. The first order of business? The hostile takeover of Slaten Industries. It’s a stressful job so when his brother offers him a spot in Sanctum’s training program, Flynn jumps at the chance.

A lifetime of devotion….

When Flynn realizes the woman he’s falling for is none other than the CEO of the firm he needs to take down, he has to make a choice. Does he take care of the woman he’s falling in love with or the business he’s worked a lifetime to build? And when Amy finally understands the man she’s come to trust is none other than the enemy, will she walk away from him or fight for the love she’s come to depend on?

Now a successful photographer living under the name Naomi Carson, she has found a place that calls to her, thousands of miles away from everything she’s ever known. Naomi wants to embrace the solitude, but the residents of Sunrise Cove keep forcing her to open up—especially the determined Xander Keaton.

Naomi can feel her defenses failing, and knows that the connection her new life offers is something she’s always secretly craved. But as she’s learned time and again, her past is never more than a nightmare away.

Becky’s Thoughts:

#Interview with author, Beth Kery of MAKE ME!

Let’s see if we can get you to try something new today. We know you’re going to love it because who doesn’t enjoy more of a good thing. Ready? Then let’s welcome our guest today, Beth Kery!

Lexi: This is exciting so I have to get right to it. You have a new serial coming out titled MAKE ME! For those who haven’t tried a serial before what is your favorite thing about them and what is your favorite thing about writing them.

Hi Lexi. Thank you for having me!

My favorite thing about serials is that it’s a different reading experience. It’s like watching a television show one time a week for 8 weeks. You don’t have long to wait for each ‘episode’. The serial is great for the traditional reader, but also reaches out to the non-traditional reader: the on the go professional who reads on the train, the mom who reads in the waiting room while her child is at the doctor’s office, etc. I’ve also heard quite a bit from people who haven’t read in a while, or maybe were never big readers. They write me and say the serial got them reading because the weekly episodes weren’t too intimidating. Many say finishing the title and anticipating the next is very positively reinforcing and fun. That kind of feedback is always amazing and prized by me.

Driven to his death by the demon of Distrust, Baden spent centuries in purgatory. Now he's back, but at what cost?
