The Barringer Brothers






Book Description: Luke Barringer finds himself in the desert near death, unsure of his name and with no recollection of his past. As the hot sun bears down on him, his will to live slips away, but he can't close his eyes. Sleep is the enemy and now it seems he has found his own slice of hell. But through the mist of his agony, a girl's soft voice drifts over him and the sound of it draws him away from the darkness.

While riding her horse, Evangeline "Angel" Sharpe finds a man bloodied and beaten. Despite knowing that she'll be in trouble for bringing him to the Bedlam MC compound, she takes him home to tend his wounds. While the handsome stranger heals, Angel finds herself falling for him. As the mystery of his past is revealed, she helps him struggle with the truth, a truth that will lead to his true identity . . . an identity that could destroy Angel's world.





Book Description: Luke 'Reno' Barringer knows that the deeper he is sucked into Dreygon Sharpe's world and the Bedlam MC, the harder it will be to get out alive. He has to go soon, but he won't leave without Angel, the girl who has taken control of his heart. Luke unwittingly impresses Dreygon with his abilities, and he decides a feigned loyalty to the club is their best chance at freedom. But if the secret he keeps from Angel is discovered before they are free, it will bring everything to a shattering end.



Angel Sharpe knows Luke is keeping something from her, but she also knows that nothing could shake her love for him. She believes that Luke will eventually gain her grandfather's trust and that she and Luke will leave the compound together. But as the layers of mystery peel away and the truth about Luke is revealed, Angel's dream unravels and she fears she may lose him forever.





Book Description: Luke "Reno" Barringer knows two things for sure - he doesn't fit in Dreygon Sharpe's MC world and he's not leaving it without Angel. 

Angel Sharpe feels her whole life slipping away along with the man she loves and there seems to be no way back to happiness. 


Luke "Reno" and Evangeline "Angel" have completely captivated me. From the beginning these two grab your attention and do not let go. 

In Rain Shadow (book 1 of 5) Luke Barringer finds himself half dead, in the desert, with no recollection as to how he got there and who he is. 

Evangeline Sharpe, the feisty beauty finds a strange, but yet handsome man half dead in the desert. She decides to help him even though she knows she will be in a world of trouble.

Evangeline brings him back to her home, a compound built by her family, and has within a deadly motorcycle gang run by her grandfather. Bringing him there puts Luke in more danger as he gets tortured and beaten at every turn. Angel will try her hardest not to let anything happen to him, but at what cost? With her trying to help him physically and mentally it sets off a series of events that will haunt both of these characters. The book itself was fast paced and it kept you reading. Asking yourself who is this man, why did someone beat the shit out of him and leave him for dead. The author did a great job leaving clues and giving hints as to his identity. By the end of the book you get a big surprise and a shocking revelation comes to light. 

In Rain Shadow (book 2 of 5) Luke has regained his memory but is keeping it to himself. He doesn't trust anyone with it and feels like if he tells Angel, he will lose her for good. He is desperately trying to figure a way to get them both out of the compound without raising suspicion from her grandfather. You learn more about Luke and his life before he lost his memory, and you also learn how he got into the mess he was in when Angel found him. Meanwhile, her grandfather is coming unhinged and is more power hungry than ever. He tries to merge his motorcycle gang with another with Angel as the prize. In the meantime, Angel is trying to keep everything between everyone on an even keel. Even though Angel is battling her emotions and heart with her head, she eventually decides that the need for her to go is stronger than her need to stay. These two characters have gone through the mill but luckily have each other to get through the worst. This book is littered with emotional turmoil that will make your head spin. The book ends with a doozy of a cliffhanger! 

In Rain Shadow (book3 of 5) Angel is completely heartbroken and thinks Luke is dead. What is a girl to do? Use the drugs that are in the compound and escape! While she is on the run from her grandfather and his gang, Luke is desperately searching for her. He enlists the help of his brothers, and they go round and round looking for her. Trying to piece together where she has been and where she is headed. Every time he thinks he has found her, he realizes he is always a step behind. While he is tracking her, he gets a bit of revenge on the people who hurt him and someone close to him. Angel, while on the run, gets captured by one of her grandfather's ex-thugs and becomes really sick. Luke will finally get his way and tracks Angel down, but will it be too late? There are some serious mind games going on in this book, and it will leave you questioning certain things. I can't tell you, because what's the fun in that? 

Brilliant writing, with fast paced action and scorching sex scenes. All three books are really worth the read and I highly recommend them all! I can't wait until the next installment comes out! :) 

Favorite quotes: "Something wretched had brought Reno to me, but I planned to make him forget all of it. He was here with me now, and I was going to make sure the anguish that plagued him washed away. I planned to absorb every ounce of his pain, whether it was with my body, or my mind, or my love. I didn't need magic in my bag. My heart would lead me." - Rain Shadow Book 1 

"Being with you gives me hope, hope that I might leave this bizarre fairy tale and live a real life. I've never had hope before." - Rain Shadow Book 2

"I leaned over and kissed her. "I made a promise awhile back that I wasn't leaving this place without you, Evangeline, and I never break a promise." - Rain Shadow Book 2

"I took her hand. "As far as I'm concerned you're the only thing that is real." -Rain Shadow Book 2

"Luke poured some shampoo in his palm. "With all of those bubbles on your head,  you look like a frosted cupcake. Almost hate to ruin the look." - Rain Shadow Book 3

5 stars for this marvelous trio! 

Until Next Time, Enjoy!
