I received this book from the author for an honest review.

AHHH Coal.  Tall. Dark. Dangerous. Those are words to describes the man who “only pays for pussy”!! The book starts right off explaining what happened to Coal to make him so damn hard.  The poor guy…

Paisley is…well….hilarious.  Quirky.  Kind. Giving.  She is the light in the world.  Her scenes were killing me.  When she comes at Coal, he has no idea what hits him.  The little Pixie knocks him off his axis in a good and much needed way.

The two meet by a chance encounter when Paisley hits Coals motorcycle.  Being the Quirky character that she is, she needs to make it right in her karma world.  Coal has no idea what to make of this fiery female but he can’t stop thinking about her.  Their dinner date=The funniest shit I have read in a long time.

No matter what is going on in their lives the pull they have to one another is full on.  The physical draw is amazing to read on paper and super fun to see come to life.  Coal needs to face his past but he doesn’t think there is anything good that can come of it.  Paisley is so sure that this man is the good she needs and the balance she desires, she will do anything to make his center corrected too.

The side plot of the bad guy who the Regulators are investigating was GROSSSSSS…lets just say I dunno that I will be eating a pulled pork sandwich for a long long looooong while.  I may pick up Paisley’s vegan diet plan!

The last few chapters I LOVED!!  IT tied up all the guys and their ol’ ladies.  We can see the Regulator MC’s futures and they look very happy.

I received a copy of this book for an honest review.

I have been waiting for the mysterious Coal’s story.  He is quiet, dark and mysterious what can I say I have been drawn to him from day one.  He is one you don’t want to mess with or make mad.  Then we have Paisley…oh sweet Paisley…she is the polar opposite of Coal. BUUUUTTTT you know what they say about opposites.  I absolutely loved these two watching Coal fight all that he knows and seeing Paisley well just being Paisley.

We know Coal is tough, hard, and dark so let me tell you about Paisley.  Paisley is pure flower child. She is all natural, organic, vegan. Paisley grows what food she can in a plastic pool on her patio, makes her own wine, and is big on keeping herself centered and in balance. …Get the picture.  So if Coal is tough, hard and dark Paisley is calm, soft and light.

The day Paisley meets Coal or should I say “bumps” into Coal literally her world is shifted off center and it is all she can do to make sure she shifts it back.  How is she going to do that you ask? Well she has to do something nice for Coal…aww right…yeah no…Coal is having no part of that but little miss Paisley is persistent.  Paisley finally got him to agree to allow her to fix him dinner. This was too funny remember Paisley = vegan and Coal = will eat anything that doesn’t eat him…..oh yeah made for an interesting dinner.  There were so many funny quirky scenes with Paisley I was cracking up. These two are truly yen and yang they fit together so well but you would never guess it.

Coal has a past that he has to face but refuses to. Paisley is on the case she is going to help him…uh Paisley do you realize who you are dealing with….oh that’s right no you don’t. Well she soon finds out when she is caught searching his name on the web….woopsie. But will that stop her from meddling? Guess you will have to read and find out.

I do have to say Coal summed it up best when he said “Whoever would have thought that a biker and a vegan flower child would be a match made I heaven?” Of all the Regulators books this is my favorite.  Even though Coal thought he was hard and dark Paisley could see right through him and saw the good in him. She knew from jump she was made to be his light and didn’t give in. I loved Coal and Paisley and I enjoyed seeing Ice and Morgan and Hammer and Des. However, the ending of this was great loved the last two chapters were heartwarming and let us know everything was good in the Regulators MC world.

A few of my favorite lines:

Okay so for most people, it may not; but for me, that’s how it’ll be. The stars will align and something will happen, sending me barreling into the man of my dreams life, and instantly, there will be fireworks.

“I love you to death, but you are the craziest woman I know. Maybe a little meat in you would take the edge off?”

“Don’t look for the good here, Pixie. Coal.” I point to my name patch. “Dirty, Dark, and hard, I’m scarred, marred, and more than you need to take on.” She studies me before she slides into her driver’s seat again. “Or maybe, Coal, this is about finding what makes you combust so you can use your energies for fuel instead of staying in your hard form, all locked up tight.”

Hard, unyielding, a rock, I am coal. The lion, they always called me, left the pride many years ago before I was even a man. Instead, I have been rock hard in my tolerance of others and dealing with my past.

I see through him. Oh, yes, I see through his exterior, he deserves something good to be given back to him. His dark aura comes from an inability to let go of something deep.

I can’t help thinking, I’m going to be his light, his sunshine. I’m going to figure out what makes him tick. Watch out, Trever “Coal” Blake, I’m on a mission.

“Okay, Pixie, some things we need to get clear. I’m a man. A red-blooded, all-American man. I eat meat. I eat bread. I eat just about anything that doesn’t eat me. I appreciate you trying to make good on the little bump, but sugar, it’s done. I’m trying real hard to be nice here. I wasn’t hurt, you weren’t hurt, there wasn’t a single bit of damage. I don’t think I even have a scratch on my bike.”

The problem with my personality is that I’m curious to the point that I can sometimes be, oh dare I say, nosey. Now I have all these questions, and I can’t help wanting to know the truth.
