I haven't read many motorcycle club books, but this one sounded interesting so I went for it and enjoyed it for the most part.
I liked the characters. Reno (who's first name is Dante, like my son which threw me for a minute) is better than the person his MC has cast him as and I feel like the book was about him growing into that person/recognizing his potential. Kara sees that person and instantly falls for him, only to be betrayed and question if she saw the real Reno. I enjoyed the hot and steamy of their relationship along with the conflict and watching them grow together.
The plot was a little iffy for me. On one hand, it didn't feel exactly like Stockholm Syndrome since Reno and Kara formed a connection before the kidnapping. But the way things play out and wrap up did require suspension of belief, just a little. It's a contemporary romance and you know you've gotta get your HEA, right? Even when it's a little less than plausible?
The narration was fantastic. It was two narrators - Ryan West and Virginia Rose. This was my favorite style of dual narration where Virginia did all the female voices, even in the chapters where Reno/Ryan was the main voice and vice versa. Both are new-to-me narrators, although I could have sworn I knew Virginia Rose's voice. Perhaps she goes by another name? But anyway, definitely recommend this narration pair.
