Not the MC you are used to and glad of it

I found this author at a release party for another author and thought I would try her book, I mean a woman-owned MC?
Tiffi and momma are awesome, momma has her place where she has her bar and Tiffi helps behind the bar. When the Angels grace the pen nothing is the same, Tiffi finds herself at a loss with the big men but Momma shines. I can not wait to see what happens with the Angels.

“Mercy’s Angels Jenni’s Story” (Book 3 ) by Barbi Barnard – #Romance, #Contemporary

Jenni has opinions of what a biker club is like. They are not the kind of people she wants to be around. With her brother moving the club back into the Play Pen she needs to come to grip with her fears. She has fears for Tiffi being involved and she has fears for Momma dealing with a club that abused her.

Loved it!
By Mandie
Jenni’s story for me was a tough read, but I’m glad I read it. She suffered so much during her childhood so her views on some things are different. She doesn’t understand how Momma can just let the MC back into their world. Her husband, Wayne, has an idea to help her understand that not everyone in the MC are bad. He plans a road trip to show her the good side. Will it work? Only time will tell.

I loved Mercy’s Angels by Barbi Barnard. Love how its the women’s story which is different from all the other MC books I have read. Hope to see more of Stephen in the next book as he totally swoon-worthy even though he is just a prospect and in no way one of the main characters!

“Mercy’s Angel’s” (Elizabeth’s Story) by Barbi Barnard – #Romance, #Contemporary

Barbi Animated GIF-downsized_large 9-10-18.gif

Every little girl dreams of her future. Whether it be college and a career or marriage and babies. All our life we think about what we are going to do “someday.” Lizzy has dreams. She and her Daddy sat and planned for places to visit, things to try and people to see. With the death of her father when she was ten, she put the list away. Her mother’s depression and her own feelings of abandonment left her without a purpose. Where would be the enjoyment without her whole family to share it with?
By the time she was ready for high school, Lizzy has come to terms with a life full of bumps. Mom has had one boyfriend after another searching for the happiness she had before. Moving to new neighborhoods with each one. Kids are mean at school and friends don’t come easy when you didn’t get to attend with them from kindergarten. Being a semi-loner with only a few girls, she can call friends she learns to be self-sufficient. She makes good grades and tries to make her home life easy on her mom. But that all comes to a stop when the latest boyfriend pays too much attention to her growing body. Mom doesn’t notice, and the only option she sees is to leave. On her own at sixteen is not ideal, but it’s better than not having any choices.
Street life is hard, and there isn’t a day that goes by that the thought of going home doesn’t cross her mind. Finding others just like herself makes it bearable. Surviving is easier when you’re not the only one. Then one day, she meets him. That one person that makes you wish for more. Spending time with them makes your day brighter. Makes you wish for everything again. Never thinking it’s all just an illusion. Betrayal of the worst kind. Pain and humiliation become the norm, and it’s all his fault.
Thirty years later, after making her way in life and bringing her girls with her, she has it all. A successful business and friends who respect her. Living quietly does make for town gossip, but that is just talk. She is content with everything she has and what she fought for. Until he comes back. With him come memories better left in the past. Can she survive with her heart and mind intact? Can she tolerate being around the person who betrayed her, to make her girls happy? This is Lizzy’s story. The final installment of the Mercy’s Angels. What happened to take the light away from her eyes? Why does the past have to resurface now?

Momma’s story. A true tale of survival. Barbi Barnard tells of overcoming evil to find the good. A must read!I really loved this book. I hurt for Elizabeth, cried for Elizabeth, got pissed off for her. The journey to her past was hard to read, but now I understand what made her the wonderful woman she is today. The men and romance of the story were perfect. She deserves to have love and kindness in abundance. I truly hope we see more of these characters! There is so much more story for them all. Greg, Match, Jenni, Wayne, Tiffi, Nick, and all the other characters in Momma’s life. The crossover with L. Ann Marie’s MC and Prince’s series was a pleasant surprise. Loved this book!

From heartache to heartfelt
By Jo Powers

This book was so touching. Watching Jenni go through everything she did as a child and then coming to accept that the MC was no longer “evil,” was a fantastic journey.
I loved that Wayne helped her come to terms with the new MC. He is a great husband.

CANNON’S & HARVEY’S I LOVE THEE

This book was suggested by a friend of mine, and I want to get down on my hands and knees and kiss his feet. Ryanne Anthony is an amazing author that needs to be read. Broken was an amazing book it had me laughing to where tears were falling down my face to a point in the book I was sobbing because it touched me so deeply. Ryanne is the type of author that has you sitting right next to the characters in the book, and you walk their path in life with them. When I finished this book, I felt a loss for the characters have loved and learned about. I wanted to read more, and luckily I can read on in Mariah the next book in this series. I am a huge fan now, and I can’t wait to start reading more about this amazing cast of characters.

This book is about two merged families the Cannons and the Harvey’s as they are all pulled into a therapy session with Victoria Fields to save the marriage of Joshua and Mandy Cannon, but as the session moves on, we learn much more. Secrets will be revealed can the families remain whole or will these secrets destroy them. This a must read and one book that will hit my go to on those days when I need a lift. I loved learning about their lives and cannot wait to continue their journey and learning more about them. The Cannon’s and The Harvey’s are now part of my family, and I love every single one of them. Does this book deserve 5 stars? No, it deserves 10++++ I loved this book and I will forever rave about Ryanne and her amazing talent as a writer.
