Holding On: Lights of Peril #1 by AC Bextor

I read an average of 35 books a month, that's roughly 420 a year, and I'm 45 years old. Never ever out of all those books have I wanted to pitch a book or ereader at the wall. Never. Until now. I actually had a serious discussion with myself about how expensive that would be, but I still REALLY want to pitch that damn book at the wall! Anyone that's planning to read this book, and I recommend it for anyone that enjoys the genre, I'm telling you to invest in the real actual book, not the ebook. That way you can at least satisfy yourself with the papery thud as it hits the wall and slides to the floor.

It was a GOOD book! It was well written and interesting, the characters were alive and you couldn't help but to fall in love with them. I thought I had the twist figured out, but I didn't even get half of it, and that's pretty good for me. It's incredibly emotional and involved, you'll need tissue, a lot of it.


Synopsis:
How does a person decide if their own life is worth sacrificing to save another?

Shame holds onto a past that haunts him. Damaged by the parents that should have taught him unconditional love; they imprisoned him with violence and disregard. Even now, Shame struggles to find both the independence and love he deserves.

Knowing the blood that runs through him is stained merely by reputation, Hem seeks acceptance while he searches for ways to redeem himself in the eyes of those that have judged him his entire life. Together the two have committed themselves to one purpose; protecting those they love the most.  

Mace Cash is Hem’s younger sister. Although they share the same mother, Mace’s father despises Hem and his position in the family.  

Sadey Lyons has loved Hem all of her life. Swearing to save herself for him, she’s determined to wait for him for as long as it takes; wanting only for him to see her as the woman she has become and not the little girl he’s always cherished.

When Hem and Shame meet Doc, the President of Lights of Peril Motorcycle Club, their lives take a dramatic turn. Finally escaping from a past that has controlled them, they find themselves living free. But neither of them have known peace for long... This is their story of love, loyalty, and heartbreak.
