New York Times bestselling author Joanna Wylde returns to the world of the Reapers Motorcycle Club…
Looking back, none of this would’ve happened if I hadn’t dropped my phone in the toilet. I mean, I could’ve walked away from him if I’d had it with me. Or maybe not. Maybe it was all over the first time he saw me, and he would’ve found another way. Probably—if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that Shade always gets what he wants, and apparently he wanted me. Right from the first.
Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Inkslinger PR in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.
Anytime I can get more of the Reapers is a good day. So I was excited to see Joanna Wylde giving us Shade’s story, even if it’s only 120 pages.
If you ever wondered about the Reapers National President, we get to know him a little better with this novella. He’s a man used to getting what he wants. But he finds himself challenged by a waitress at the local bar.
I loved Mandy’s spirit. She had been wronged by the previous men in her life and all she wanted to do was help her sister take care of her kids and get her own life back on track. Mandy may think Shade is hot, but she’s not willing to go down that path with him. But when Shade steps up and helps Mandy protect her family, she can’t help but fall even further for Shade.
I liked the two of them together. Joanna Wylde does a great job of giving us the development of their relationship in 120 pages. I would have liked a little more but it was easy to believe these two developing a relationship and having it be just as strong as the other Reapers.
If you’re a fan of the Reapers MC series, this is a great novella to give you a Reapers fix. Definitely one to pick up.

Excerpt
“Nope,” Shade said, shaking his head seriously. “She’s hot, I’ll give her that, but he’d take her in a fair fight.”
I held up a hand for him to wait as I polished off my booze.
“No way. She’s a goddess of war and she’s one of the best hand-to-hand fighters in history. She’s got an invisible jet, for God’s sake. How can you compete with that? All he has is a bunch of money and the stupid Batmobile.”
“Hand over the cup,” Shade said, narrowing his eyes.
“Why?” I asked, narrowing mine right back. I was good and drunk now, and I wasn’t sure I was ready to be done for the night.
“Demonstration,” he replied. “C’mon. Or are you chicken?”
“What are we, kindergartners?”
“You’re the one insisting Wonder Woman can take Batman,” he replied. “Chicken.”
Then he leaned toward me, raising a single finger to poke me in the center of my chest. Not copping a feel or anything remotely sexual, either. This was pure taunt. I handed him the cup and he tossed it on the floor, nearly falling off the bed in the process. I smirked—guess I wasn’t the only drunk one. Then he started listing to the side and I lunged for him, grabbing his shirt to keep him from going over.
Shade caught my arm, using the momentum to pull me onto his body with sudden force. My hands hit his chest and I raised my head to stare at him, stunned.
“What the hell are you doing?” I asked. Shade wrapped his arms around my waist, holding me tight to his body.
“Demonstrating.”
