AN AMAZON REVIEW
“Absolutely love this series of books. I have read all of them to this point and can’t wait for more. I am leaving this review and this is for all the books. Each book is great on its own but as a series it is freakin fantastic. I don’t know how the author can keep all the names straight but she is phenomenal. I was confused a few times with all the different names but I eventually got them straight. My favorite men are Cloud, Tiny and Digs but I would take any of them because they know how to treat their women. If only there was real men like that in the world we would all be happy. I can’t wait to see who comes next. Thanks for all the hard work you do.” “I like all the characters. Like the how all the characters are connected. The plots are awesome. I’m never bored there is so much going on in the story.”!line 2
A SNEAK PEEK INSIDE THE BOOK
“How come the school didn’t call?” I ask Billy. He shrugs, making me irate. They should have called. What the hell are they thinking? I get a bag of corn from the freezer and hold it to his face. “What happened?” “It was the bullies from my grade again, they got him at lunch. By the time the Little Brothers saw them he was already on the floor,” José says. “I wish I had their lunch, I could sit with them so they’re not alone.” Jason raises his hand as if he’s still in school. I nod to him. “They said they’ll be back tomorrow. Can we bring our lunch?” I look at him. “You sit alone at lunch? I thought all the Little Brothers and Sisters sat together?” Billy fist pumps, drawing my attention. “We can sit with them?” He’s smiling, which looks pathetic with his bruised cheek and eye. I push his hand up, putting the corn back on his face. “Of course, you should be sticking together. The Little Brothers will make sure you’re taken care of. Why weren’t you sitting with them?” José looks down. “I always sit with them, but Claire thought they were a bad influence.” That freakin’ woman! “You sit with them every damn day from now on, no excuses! You got me? You are not punching bags for bullies!” All three of them nod, smiling like they just got a birthday present. I pull granola bars out for snack and hand them one each. I’m thinking I need to go to the office tomorrow and find out why I wasn’t called. Sheila and Ricky come in and see Billy on the counter. Sheila rushes over and hugs him. Ricky throws his book bag down. “Same kids?” He’s pissed. Tiny walks in behind him. “This is getting worse every f—freakin’ time!” He looks at me. “Can I go talk to little Ben?” I look at Tiny. He nods. “Yeah. I want them sitting with the Little Brothers every day.” He throws chin, walks around Tiny, and is out the door. Sheila gets her backpack. “I need to get my homework done. I’ll be out back.” I nod and hand her a granola bar and an apple. Tiny lifts Billy’s chin and looks at his face. “You have lessons starting tomorrow with CJ for martial arts. Saturday you start riding lessons. Tomorrow morning I’m taking you to school.” Billy jumps off the counter, dropping the corn and starts jumping around. José and Jason follow his lead. All I can do is smile as José lands on the bag and corn flies. They all freeze and look at Tiny. “It’s corn, costs like a dollar.” He shrugs. I smile, getting the broom and dustpan. He’s so easy going at the best of times. I hand the broom to José and the dustpan to Billy. “Who hit you, Billy?” he asks while they clean up. “Kids from José’s grade, it’s always the same three.” He dumps the corn and puts the broom and dustpan away. Tiny looks at José. “Where were you?” “I have the next lunch. Nancy said they have to sit with the Little Brothers from now on. They won’t be getting picked on anymore, everyone is afraid of Jeremy and Jacob.” Tiny looks at me pissed, schools his face, and looks down to the boys. “Stick with your Brothers, there’s safety in numbers. Once you learn how to defend yourselves the bullies will leave you alone.” The boys nod with big smiles again. “This happened at lunch, no one called me,” I tell him. “They never called Claire,” Jason says. Tiny looks at him then me. “I’ll sort it out tomorrow.” He looks back at them. “Anything else I need to take care of while I’m there?” José looks down embarrassed. “We get free lunch but it’s not always good. Sometimes we just get a cheese sandwich if we don’t like what they have.” “You need money for lunch?” he growls out. José looks up fast. “No, we can just eat what they give us,” he says, scared. Tiny wipes his hand down his face. “No, you’ll eat what you need. How does the lunch money work?” “You pay online and we get to use it when they have the gross stuff,” Billy says. “You need something, you tell us so we can get it. We don’t know just because we’re big. Yeah?” The boys look relieved. “We need PE clothes and shirts for Spirit days,” Billy says. I laugh. The other boys are nodding. “Let’s make a list so we don’t forget anything.” I grab the magnetic pad from the fridge and a pen. Ricky comes in. “The Little Brothers will watch out for you. If you have a problem you go to Aaron or Jacob, they’ll get help from little Ben.” He looks at me and Tiny. “They always sit alone on the other side of the cafeteria, the other kids leave them alone, but they don’t bother with them.” He takes a breath, he’s pissed again. “At all.” Damn.tiny-44
Tiny has lived a rough life. Born to a drug addicted mother and an absentee father, his mother had plenty of company–not all of it good for a young boy. He’s spent his entire adult life in the MC–He knows no other way. Nancy lived with an elderly aunt when her parents died. When her aunt saw Tiny for the first time, she threw her out. Wanting nothing to do with her young niece from that moment on, Nancy had no options. When Tiny finds his old lady in Nancy he doesn’t talk about her or advertise how much she means to him for fear of losing her to a Brother without the same commitment values that he has. But all her life, Nancy has wanted a family. Finally convincing Tiny he would make a good father, Nancy gets her baby. Married for almost eighteen years, Tiny works hard to keep Nancy happy in her life and with him. They share a love for the MC’s kids, but still Nancy demands more. When she heard the group home needed parents she started thinking of a way to convince Tiny they’d be perfect for the job. All the talk shows in the world can’t help Tiny out of this one. *Content Warning: includes graphic language and adult sexual situations. Intended for mature audiences 18+
