A job needs done…he does it. 
Men idolize him. 
Women love him. 

Never shy and always up for a good time, Grizz finds himself jumping from mattress to mattress and digging grave after grave. You want to take a bullet? Cross the club. 

One night, rival MC, Devil’s Idol, do just that. Grizz and Animal are sent to straighten shit out while leaving no witnesses. What Grizz faces that night changes his life forever… 

Piper Jones is in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The ruthless business woman, finds herself captive by the MC club. But she’s not one to go down without a fight. 

She slowly destroys Grizz, from his bad boy persona, to his ride or die motto. He should want nothing more than to do away with her with a single bullet. Instead, he finds himself giving his all just to be with her.

Who knew stopping for a chocolate donut would change her life forever?  Piper was in the wrong place and wrong time.  Inadvertently witnessing a murder, she is kidnapped and held against her will.  She's always used her body to get whatever she wants in the corporate world so she believes her body is the ticket out of this new dilemma she finds herself in.
She learned early on that she can only count on herself and that her body/health is only good if she watches her diabetes closely.  Imagine her surprise when her normal methods of persuasion don't work.  She finds herself oogling Grizz, one of the two men that kidnapped her.  Grizz not only smells divine, he looks divine from head to toe.
Piper and Grizz start burning up the sheets but you know how that goes in these MC novels.  The men don't want commitments and the club always comes first.  It's an adjustment for Piper but she makes the best of it.  Everything is going good until drama/conflict rears it's ugly head and throws everything off for Piper and Grizz.  Nope, can't say anything more than that.
My final thoughts about Iron Sinners - (1) I look forward to reading more from the author.  The book was well written and flowed pretty well.  The length was nice - not too short and not too long.  (2) I am kind of surprised that Piper did not deck Kathy during the book - I would have!  (3) I liked Piper's character but wonder where her confidence went.  I didn't like Grizz as much mostly because he appeared to blow hot and cold the first half of the book.

Talk about being blown away! I wasn't sure what to expect with this book because I knew it wasn't going to be like any of the other HJ Bellus books I have read! 
Where do I start with my review... WOW, WOW, WOW!!
Iron Sinners exceeded my expectations in so many ways.. 
There is not a lot to laugh about in this book, but if you want a story that is gut wrenching emotionally then this is for you!!! In some parts of Piper & Grizz's story I though how sweet, then within seconds I was cursing him & calling him stupid and thinking she was silly for provoking him.. Then something would happen and I would be terrified for Piper but at the same time in absolute awe of her strength & determination to not be beaten.. I was so thankful that she made a friend in amongst everything going on in Mayley. 
In the midst of all these conflicting emotions, the one thing that never ever faltered was Piper & Grizz's feelings. It slowly developed into a beautiful love story hidden under the terror & turmoil going on around them. 
I did ugly cry for what happened to Piper & wanted to jump into the book & save her so badly (yes I know it’s not real life!!) and shoot them all myself!! My heart literally broke for her at the end of that scene..
At the end of the day, you have to love Grizz for the choice he made to save her. Hell you have to love him anyway for his absolute devotion to her and his willingness to give up his life to save hers.
I read this is 1 day because I literally could not put it down!!!!!!! 
This was a great big rollercoaster or emotion & scary drama that I was so glad I got to ride, absolutely bloody amazing!!
I could go on & on about how fabulous this book is, but I will finish my review by saying if you haven't one clicked yet.. go & do it, you won’t be able to help but get swept up in the story of Piper & Grizz!! And you certainly will not be disappointed!

~ EXCERPT ~

“Who the fuck do you think you are,” I yell as the large man throws me onto the bed.
“Your worst fucking nightmare, sweetie pie.”
“Just let me go, please.”
“Not happening,” he says as he sits on the bed and begins to untie his boots.
“I didn’t see anything. I don’t know names or places. Let me go. I have a very important meeting in the morning,” I beg.
“Not happening,” he replies again.
“Let. Me. Fucking. Go,” I roar, as I sling the Bible from the nightstand and nail him in the back of the head.
“Listen here, bitch, you’re now property of the Iron Sinners motorcycle club. You ain’t fucking going nowhere without one of us. Got it? You witnessed a fucking crime that could put a fellow brother away for life. You’ve been spotted with us by a rival club. You are now marked as a motherfucking Sinner. You leave our side and the Idols will put a really shiny bullet straight through your skull. You’re a walking, talking dead bitch just waiting to get popped. So shut the fuck up.”
Did I just really hear him he say property of the sinners? Bullet in my head?
“So, you’re telling me I have a ticking death threat that could expire at any given moment?”
The man stands, faces me, baring all of his ink and replies, “And I forgot to add shut the fuck up.”
“Are you fucking kidding me?”
He comes closer in an intimidating stance and bends down so we are face to face. “Does any of this read as if I were kidding you, bitch?”
His minty breath reverberates off my skin and envelops all of my senses. He was the bad guy and I, the victim, but god damn he’s gorgeous.
“Let me fucking go. I don’t care about any of that shit.”
I lunge forward off the bed, catapulting myself into his chest and begin my fight to escape. My surprise assault knocks him off balance and he falls back on the bed. I run for the door. Fuck! My bag. I take three steps back, grab my bag, and run.
Halfway out of the parking lot, I'm brought down by my hair.
“You dumb cunt. What part of my speech didn’t you get?” the man growls in my face.
He rips me up by the hair and drags me back to the room.
“I’m done playing nice. You want to run and piss me the fuck off, then you’re going to be treated like a fucking piece of trash.”

I am just a simple country girl getting one story out of my head at a time. I was raised in small town, USA and still reside there with my husband and children. I am a huge country music fan and am inspired by it everyday. I live and love country life, and you will find those elements in my books. I also adore strong and brave lead female characters, and strive to be a courageous and independent woman in everyday life. In my opinion, life is no fun without a good sense of humor, sprinkles, cheese whiz, and candy. It is the simple things that warm my heart.
