Benga's Rise by L. Ann MarieMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Good, Fun, Biker Book.
If you have got this far into L. Ann Marie’s series about bikers, you probably know all the things I’m going to say. You probably know whether you like the books or not, but I know reviews make a difference to some people, so here goes.
This is a good, solid and fun biker book. The bikers are all good people who look out for their communities, their women and their kids, but aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty in order to get the job done right.
The MMC in this book is Raid, the VP of Phoenix Rises Badass MC that was covered in the first book in the Phoenix Series. Raid is a solid and likeable VP, methodical and strong. He’s been in the Badass MC most of his life, with his best friend Cort being brought up in the club, and Raid practically living at their house. Since his best friend got hitched and had a baby he’s found himself wondering about his future and the kind of woman he’s hooking up with, in a vague sort of way.
He meets Loraleigh, the MFC, when she's in a bad way. Her leg is badly broken after being beaten by her ex, who has sold her house from under her and walked away from her and her 10 year old son Leo. Raid ends up having Loraleigh and her son live with him because she can’t manage stairs. The two of them become friends.
It’s a slow moving love story and there are some ups and downs. One of the best things about it is the way the Raid takes to Leo straight away, even before a hint of romance starts.
There is lots of stuff about the MC businesses and ops and training, and that’s in all the other books. If you haven’t read the books recently you will have brain overload trying to remember who everyone is, as there is a largish cast of characters.
Overall it’s a fun book, if a little slow to get going. It speeds up about midway through and doesn’t drop in pace.
