Distraction: The great intensity, novelty, or attractiveness of something other than the object of attention.

Sven is a man who takes pride in his ability to separate himself from his emotions. He's a man who knows who he is and where he’s going in life, a man who needs no one, because needing someone, anyone, is a weakness.

His past taught him love isn’t enough.  

Maggie wants the happily ever after, but has never picked the right men, or stuck around long enough, to build a forever. It’s always been easier to get out early, before emotions make things messy.
 
When Maggie wakes up naked in Sven’s bed, with no memory of the night before, these two must be honest about their feelings and face their fears, so they can build a future together.

Will love be enough for them to get their happy ending together, or will a threat from outside strike them down before they ever have a chance?

REVIEW 

 I knew what to expect going in to this book ( I am very familiar with this author and her previous works), but what I wasn't prepared for was Maggie. 

She...was...absolutely....hilarious...and...utterly...fantastic.



 Anyone who doesn't cuss and calls a hot sexy man a lint licker and a basterid (sp?) within moments of meeting him is awesome in my book. 

When she put that guy in the club in a headlock I am almost died. It was so funny.



 I couldn't wait for Sven to fall for Maggie [Mags] because she was perfect for him. He took himself [and his life] entirely too serious and she was perfect to add a little chaos.

From previous books in the series, we know that there's an outside criminal threat so Sven meeting and falling for Maggie couldn't come at a worse time, but...


So when they finally do get together I was expecting anything except what actually happened. 





 Like whaaaat...are you cereal right now Maggie? What is going on? What was most likely the best sex EVER and its drawing a blank.




Honestly, at first I thought this scene came out of nowhere. No build up. Nothing. But as it played out I found myself nodding and going with the flow. It was too good to do anything but follow along and then my opinion flipped to...



And from then on I was bombarded with the awesomeness that was Sven and all of his hot ass hotty hot hot bad ass sexy friends getting together to solve their criminal threat. And if that isn't enough for you there is still Maggie's family problems plus Sven's problem with someone roofy-ing the women in his club. Jeez! Come on heart attack.



AWESOMENESS! 

If you're familiar with this author - Sven's character is everything you imagined and just a tad bit more. Maggie is awesome sauce. She loves hard. She works hard. She negotiates hard [her salary tho haha]. She fights hard. She is unstoppable and I am here for her.

This has to be the best in the Underground King series so far. I think it'll be hard to top.

ARC: Right to My Wrong (The Heroes of the Dixie Wardens MC #8) by Lani Lynn Vale

Title: Right to My Wrong
Series: The Heroes of the Dixie Wardens MC #8
Author: Lani Lynn Vale
Genre: Adult, Motorcycle Club Romance
Release Date: February 3, 2016

Cover Model: Chase Ketron 
Nightmares.
Sterling and Ruthie have more things in common than they realize, even though from the outside it doesn’t seem like they do.
Blood.
Sterling is a decorated war hero.
Ruthie is an ex-con.
Their two worlds should’ve never collided, but fate has a way of turning life in the direction least expected. Now Ruthie has to try to come to terms with the fact that she’s in love with a biker who’s also a decorated Navy SEAL. One who leaves for months at a time with little to no advance warning, taking her heart with him each time he goes.
Pain.
Sterling has a lot of things to overcome in order to have Ruthie, the biggest being her mind.
She doesn’t think she’s good enough.
He thinks she’s perfect.
Now it’s up to him to show her just how right he can be.

Ruthie and Sterling.



From the previous book we know that Ruthie is Sawyer’s former cellmate from prison. We know that she killed her husband – cell block tango style and that he deserved it. 

Sterling is a member of the Dixie Wardens MC, active duty SEAL team member, and has a serious interest in Ruthie who feels like she isn’t worthy to be with someone like Sterling. These two are friends as he and his [foster] brothers come to her job daily to buy snacks. 

This couple is meant for each other. They both have PTS and I very much enjoyed, even though it was a messed up moment, when they both shared their painful experiences surrounding a Toyota Corolla. This book is riddled with these personal moments that further the notion that these two have to end up together. As per usual with a Lani Lynn Vale book when the couple in question finally do make it to the physical side of their relationship the pages literally implode. Case in point – the rain scene.






I’ll leave it at that.

An important thing about this book to understand is its main purpose is NOT to tell the story of Sterling and Ruthie getting together. There are many surrounding side-plots that total an awesome read. There is the issue of Ruthie’s treatment by the town and its police force. There is the issue of Sterling’s active duty status as a S.E.A.L. There is the issue of Sterling’s birth mother. There is the issue of Ruthie trying to make a go of her life after getting out of prison.
There is so much more than Sterling and Ruthie coming together as a couple. Not all of it is good and not all of it is bad. There are several grab your chest moments.


But overall I enjoyed each and every delicious morsel. The good. The bad. The heart-wrenching. The sexy. There was much satisfaction to be had in this book.


 


I’m a married mother of three. My kids are all under 5, so I can assure you that they are a handful. I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us. I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.
