Even by Wind Dragon Motorcycle Club standards, Irish was always a bit of a dark horse. Not one to confide his secrets, such as where he got that mysterious scar across his neck, he’s quick with his fists and even quicker to jump to the defense of his MC. But is he nimble enough to handle the woman he never saw coming? Or will she leave him with a matching scar across his heart?

 

Review

Dirty Ride turns out to be the perfect little escape from reality. It only took a hot second to read it, and I was satisfied in the end. It’s quick and dirty, which is what the description and cover promise. I haven’t read the previous books, but I had no problem getting to know Irish, bad boy extraordinaire to the Wind Dragons Motorcycle Club. 

Valentina’s character was the focal point to this story, as she’s the one running from an abusive past. I was open to the possibility that this would be insta-love, so I wasn’t surprised really. My rational side says that the pace is too fast for this type of plot. Girl running from her past, meets hot guy in a bar, within days they are joined at the hip. Not very smart of Tina to do since she is trying to get her life together, and she just ran away from an abusive relationship. Bad boy Irish is the right man for the job as rebound. He’s not only hot, bud badaxx with connections. Who better to protect Tina than him? So yeah, my bad conscious told my good conscious to shut the hell up and leave them be. 

You have a woman on the run, a bad boy who falls in love with her, a ruthless motorcycle club, and hot romance – the perfect little escape. I will definitely be reading more of this series.
