Delilah increasingly resents her beautiful face, her shapely body and her sensuous effect on men. But when a man of the motorcycle club0?4a deeply sinful yet stunningly beautiful man0?4is charged with her care, Delilah begins to see that this dangerous and moralless sinner from the 'outside' may offer her something she did not know could truly exist: unconditional love.Kyler 'Ky' Willis loves his life: a daily abundance of brotherhood, liquor, the freedom of the open-road and0?4best of all0?4his pick of hot women. Raised a biker brat and now VP of the most notorious MC in the States, Ky has no shortage of club sluts warming his bed; a situation he takes full advantage of... until a certain blonde enters his life... a gorgeous pilgrim-blonde he can't get out of his head... a pilgrim-blonde he and his club recently-rescued from some backward religious cult... and a pilgrim-blonde he's been ordered to keep the hell away from and his whorish hands off.When yet another in a lengthy line of drunken blunders forces Ky to reluctantly take charge of the pilgrim-blonde's care, he realizes that there could be more to this woman than just supermodel looks and a stacked set of tits. He begins to see that she could be the woman who could do the impossible0?4tame his wild ways and capture his reluctant heart.But the unyielding bonds of Lilah's past are strong, her 'people' determined and, with a new Prophet in charge and hell bent on revenge, they are mightily reluctant to let her go...Dark Contemporary Romance.Contains explicit sexual situations, violence, disturbingly sensitive and taboo subjects, offensive language, and very mature topics.Recommended for age 18 years and up*

This series triggers me. I literally want to jump through the pages and punch some characters in the face. If you have read these books, you know who I am talking about. Good series so far, I am really enjoying it

The feels. I wasn‘t sure I‘d like this as much as the first, but eventually I came around. Ky is so crude but the love he has for Lilah is unconditional—even if he totally fought it at first. Tillie Cole does such a great job of showing the effects the cult has on these women and how the experience has affected them each differently. Eagerly looking forward to Flame and Maddie. But tomorrow because I need to process.

CoverToCoverGirl Great review! 7y
CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl thanks! Can‘t wait to start Flame! 7y

Now, that‘s gonna be a story. Please let that be a story!

theresidentromantic So the new announced book is Elysia. But she hasn't revealed if it's either one of them or both of them yet! 7y
CocoReads Oh aces. Please let it be both! But um, Viking needs a book, Tanner needs a book, and I‘d love like a prequel to see how Tank and Beauty and Bull and Letti got together. 7y
theresidentromantic @CocoReads Actually, I just went to check my Instagram, it is both of them! Feb 27th. 😍 7y
theresidentromantic Viking is who I expected the next book to be, now that his two best friends have wives, tbh. Poor guy. 7y
CocoReads He‘s such a smart ass so it‘ll be interesting. Off to follow her on Insta! 7y

@CoverToCoverGirl I‘m at the dreaded Chapter 19–thinking about switching my water to something stronger but I suspect my hub drank all the damn whiskey!

CoverToCoverGirl Now that you‘ve read the dreaded Chapter 19... sending you a big {{hug}} because I know you need it. 7y
CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl OMFG! Yes, all hugs welcomed. Never have I wanted so badly to crawl into a book and castrate some bastards. Or pull another character in. Not that the Hangmen need his help but can you imagine Shade picking the trash off? 7y
CoverToCoverGirl Yes I could and he‘d do it with a smile on his face enjoying it throughly... hmmm there‘s a thought a cross over book featuring the Last Riders and the Hades Hangmen riding together! Now that would be Dark, naughty and hot tale! 😏😁❤️ 7y
CocoReads Shade is never far from my thoughts. 7y

Now you realize that? Sheesh! But still, this is so messed up. And I know it‘s just going to get worse before it gets better.

CoverToCoverGirl Bad does not even begin to describe it... are you at Chapter Nineteen yet? and yes Lilah‘s awareness really is awful throughout this book so far! (edited) 7y
CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl just started 17. But I‘m done with distractions for the night, I think. So now I can devour the rest of this book. 7y
CoverToCoverGirl Good! because from Chapter 19 on you‘re not going to want to stop or be interrupted... I have about 1 1/2 hour of listening time left.. I‘m emotionally exhausted from this roller coaster ride and once again my husband thinks I‘ve lost my mind. (edited) 7y

CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl mine just went to bed. And it‘s snowing so I have no reading to leave my spot on the couch except to refill my drink. I feel another all nighter coming on. 7y
theresidentromantic @CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl my fiance knew I lost my mind a long time ago, now he's just started to accept that his brain has the plot to random romance novels in it. 7y
CocoReads @theresidentromantic 😂😂😂 I just found out the other day that my hub, while seeming to pay no attention to my writing, has actually bragged that I‘m writing a book. Coulda knocked me over with a feather! 7y
theresidentromantic @CocoReads I want to be a writer too! That's adorable, he's so proud of you ❤❤ Are you getting close to having a draft? 7y
CocoReads @theresidentromantic I actually finished it on Monday. I impulsively entered it in a contest and winners are notified on Valentines Day. It could be better but I sort of ran out of time. If it doesn‘t win, I‘m going to work on the weak spots and maybe look into the next steps. 👇 7y
CocoReads I mostly started it to see if I could do it. I used to write when I was younger and then pushed it aside when I got married and had kids. Now that they‘re grown I‘m trying to get back to it. 7y
CocoReads You can do it! 7y
theresidentromantic @CocoReads That's so exciting!! I wish you all the luck ❤🏆 7y
theresidentromantic @CocoReads Oh gosh, mine's such a mess. I want to establish a dystopian fantasy world and it's got so many damn pieces. 7y
CocoReads Believe me, there‘s been so many days where I go “that‘s a great paragraph!” And then two pages later I‘m wanting to delete everything I‘ve ever written! 7y

I actually had to laugh at that. Not that trafficking is funny but because I noticed it kept getting asked too. I mean, they‘re into some bad stuff but I never got a hint that that was something they‘d do. Club business or not, Letti and Beauty would never let that happen!

theresidentromantic Well, it's such a funny image! She's in Amish clothing holding hands with this big scary biker guy outside one of the biggest cities in America! I'd be a little concerned too, if I was their waitress! 7y
CocoReads Yeah, I would too but I cracked me up that was the first response of both the waitress and Ky‘s sister. 7y

Exactly. I cannot wait for Maddie and Flame!

theresidentromantic They are my favorite!! Meanwhile, I have been inhaling Viper and Winter! I haven't even stopped reading long enough to make a legit post. Much, much better than the first book. And I mean, they have me definitely until Shade and Lily. Like, I'd do anything to read that, but apparently I have a long way to go! 7y
CocoReads Oh I do like Viper and Winter. Shade and Lily-it takes so long because Lily‘s so broken but it‘s totally worth it. Wait til you meet Shades sister. She‘s a hoot and a half! @theresidentromantic 7y
CoverToCoverGirl Ahhh ... Shade and Lily ❤️❤️❤️ well worth the wait for sure... can‘t wait for your review @theresidentromantic on (edited) 7y
Daughter-of-words Maddie and Flame were my favorites😍 very difficult to read though😢 7y

My mom made pineapple pork loin and salad for dinner last night so I get to enjoy the leftovers for lunch today as I delve back into the Hades Hangmen world. #booknlunch #DarkRomance

CoverToCoverGirl It looks delicious and helps to soothe the indignity of getting your a** handed to you at cards last night! 🤣🙃 7y

Oh barf. I see where this is going. Good thing I don‘t have many triggers but these things are always hard to read. I hope the Hangmen take the bastards out. All of them.

CoverToCoverGirl 😬🤮!!! I was totally terrified for Lilah... Luke is utter evil! 7y
CocoReads Between Shade and these guys, I‘m turning bloodthirsty. Lol. Even my Free guys, while a lot lighter, still totally have some skills (thanks army) and aren‘t afraid to take out the trash. 7y
theresidentromantic @CoverToCoverGirl @CocoReads What I actually really love about these books is that the author has a degree in theology and is a teacher. These books aren't a bash on religion. It's about taking out the trash! ❤🏍️ 7y
CocoReads I agree. She‘s a really good writer. 7y

Ky could immorally seduce me any day. Just sayin‘ 😂😂🔥🔥#DarkRomance

CoverToCoverGirl Lilah‘s getting to him so he‘s already taken! Lol 😜 7y
CocoReads Yep. And truthfully, Styx captured me with his singing. I‘m a fool for musicians. But turns out I‘m kinda free with my affections in the fictional world. 7y

Hell I rejoiced when Brother Moses was killed. I get that Lilah‘s been brainwashed and going from the cult to an Outlaw MC would be an extreme culture shock but I can‘t help but roll my eyes. #DarkRomance

theresidentromantic There was a point to which I really didn't have any more patience for Lilah, but I think the author does an excellent job pointing out that each girl was affected by something stronger than the other things. Like Lilah is almost more affected by the words than the actions. 7y
CocoReads Yes, I think so. And the same situation affects different people differently. I am really digging this series. 7y
CoverToCoverGirl I find some of the moments actually comical too because of the way Ky reacts to some of the things she has no understanding of but yes 👀 is involved. 7y

CocoReads @CoverToCoverGirl Ky is a complete man whore but I enjoy him. And I cannot wait to get to Flame because I think he‘s going to be the Gavin of this series. Just a feeling I‘m getting.... (edited) 7y
Daughter-of-words I agree with the comparison to Gavin. Flame‘s story was a difficult one for me but the the reward at the end was even sweeter. I ❤️ Flame 7y
CocoReads @Daughter-of-words looking forward to it! 7y

Really want to start this, really need to recharge my kindle. I may have to wait til morning. 😬

CoverToCoverGirl How sad 😢💔 7y
CocoReads Yep. It‘s only at 50%. And I really need to go to bed anyway since I stayed up all last night. Would have napped today but my bestie was in a car accident this morning so I took her hub up to rent a car. She‘s fine, thank goodness for airbags! Sadly, I think we‘re going to have to have a funeral for her beloved CR-V. 7y
SandyW Sorry about your friend, glad she's ok. If you REALLY wanted to read your book, you could always use an extension cord for the charger. 7y
CocoReads @SandyW I decided to go with some actual sleep instead. 7y

I don't actually know how it happened, but my favorite way to read is on my tablet. I know, I know, but Megan, the smell of paper! The feel of a book! I know. I'm sorry. #unpopularopinion #youdthinkibetrayedmycountryorsomething

GrilledCheeseSamurai I love reading on my tablet. I have a kindle paperwhite as well - but there's just something I really like about the tablet. I guess I really like the app. The Kindle is fine - but the software is pretty basic. My tablet makes my library fun to look at and to read. I mean I'll never give up physical books...I'm just saying is all...🙃 7y
Pamwurtzler Don‘t be sorry!! I love my kindle(s)! 7y
theresidentromantic @GrilledCheeseSamurai I'll never give up paper or anything like that, but it's more often than not that I'll go book shopping my wandering around a bookstore and wishlisting things on Amazon. 7y

RadicalReader @theresidentromantic what‘s been your all time favorite ebook you‘ve read? What book are you most looking forward to being released? 7y
theresidentromantic @RadicalReader That's a hard question, most of everything I read is on my tablet. So it's like asking my favorite book! I'd have to say my favorite ebook is Graceling and it's companion, Fire. 7y

This series is just awesome. The author has researched religious groups and based the characters on interviews of actual people. The story and romance are so well done. I will be reading book 3 asap! #romantsy #romance

Book 27. Tillie Cole somehow manages to write some very difficult topics and weave it together with romance, and do it very well. A lesser writer could never have accomplished this, some MC books are just laughable, and then to add the cult aspect and this series could have taken a very different path.
