The New York Times bestselling author of Reaper’s Stand is back in her “uber-alpha rough world of MCs”* as one woman’s future is rocked by the man whose hardcore past could destroy her…
He never meant to hurt her.
Levi “Painter” Brooks was nothing before he joined the Reapers motorcycle club. The day he patched in, they became his brothers and his life. All they asked in return was a strong arm and unconditional loyalty—a loyalty that’s tested when he’s caught and sentenced to prison for a crime committed on their behalf.
Melanie Tucker may have had a rough start, but along the way she’s learned to fight for her future. She’s escaped from hell and started a new life, yet every night she dreams of a biker whose touch she can’t forget. It all started out so innocently—just a series of letters to a lonely man in prison. Friendly. Harmless. Safe.
Now Painter Brooks is coming home… and Melanie’s about to learn that there’s no room for innocence in the Reapers MC.
Review by: Leeann
Painter & Melanies story is interesting. Painter is part of the Reapers MC & Melanie is involved with them by association only.
Mel is very naïve to the ways of the MC world & has no idea what really goes on. She also has a lot of people trying to protect her
from the realities of the MC. Unfortunatly you can’t help who you fall in love with & Mel has fallen for Painter hard. And he has also fallen for her.
Mel learns the hard way that the MC will always come first when Painter makes a decision that changes their lives forever.
She learns very quick what her place in Painters list of priorities is. Right underneath his beloved MC brothers.
I enjoyed this book but I felt at times Mel was a little bit too naïve. She had been around the MC long enough that she should have had more of a
grasp on how things worked. Even though she was being slightly protected from it, she would have seen enough to get the gist of it, but I couldn’t
help but like her character & empatize with the situation she found herself in.
At times Painter drove me nuts. He lived so far in his own head at times and it made him come across as wishy washy. He had a soft side when it came to Mel
but it was like he just couldn’t make his mind up. In saying that, about ¾ of the way through the story & he got his S*** together & I couldn’t help but change
my opinion of him. This is where he stepped up and did what he should have done from the beginning.
I think for all intents and purposes Joanna Wylde has done an excellent job writing about 2 people that are highly conflicted in their feelings towards each other
and in what they want out of their relationship & life. Her writing had me flicking back and forth between different emotions as I was reading & constantly changing
my opinion of each and every character that popped up in the story, not just Painter & Melanie.
The development and progress of Mel happens fairly quick in the story as her life and circumstances change & she has no choice but to grow up. Oainter takes a little bit longer
to grow up but once he does the change is exraordinary and he is like a different person.
If you like reading about hot bikers being tamed by their old ladies then this is worth getting your 1 click finger out for!!

I love Joanna Wylde and her Reaper's MC!
From the beginning the characters that make up this world of brotherhood and mayhem has kept me fascinated and completely captivated.
In Reaper's Fall we finally get to find out just what the heck is up with Painter and Melanie.
What I didn't expect was that Mel would be so..tough? I don't even know if that's the right word, but she surprised me. Mel more than held her own against a whole world full of tough biker men. In previous books Melanie always seemed a little delicate and fragile. I am so glad that this author gave her lots of backbone. With everything that she faces in this book she needs to be tough.
(I really have trouble with heroines who allow themselves to become a doormat.)
Painter was tough and gruff and surprisingly mean. I wanted to punch him in the throat. More times than once.
I also loved that the author finally gave us his story. And yes, Painter has plenty of reasons for being who and what he is.
The question I kept asking myself through out this book is this...Is Painter just so used to being an a$$hole that it's normal for him? Does he even know how to be any other way?
I was so happy to get a few peeks at the Reaper's and Silver Bastard's we've met in previous books and see how their lives have changed. The club is growing and not just because of the prospects.
As always, there's continued stress and strain between rival clubs. And a pending war that reaches into the ranks of the Reaper's and causes irreparable damage.
Joanna Wylde has once again given us another successful installment of one of the best MC series out there. And a way to use red paint that seems like lots of fun!

Excerpt
“You want to watch a movie or something?” she asked, nodding toward the TV. I had a decent one, too. Giant-ass flat-screen—homecoming present from the club.
“Sure,” I said, reaching for the remote. I didn’t have cable, but Ruger had set up some kind of box thingie for me so I could stream shit. “Whatcha in the mood for?”
“Not horror,” she said quickly, and I laughed again, remembering that first evening I’d spent with her at Pic’s house. She’d been so young and scared and vulnerable . . . I’d wanted to eat her up.
I still wanted to eat her.
“I can’t believe that you and Puck were supposed to be watching over me, and then you put in a slasher movie. That’s not how you make a girl feel safe.”
“No horror,” I agreed, although the thought of holding her for a couple hours while she was scared shitless appealed way more than it should. Watch it, asshole. “How about Star Wars?”
“You like Star Wars?”
I shrugged. “Everyone likes Star Wars. You know, I’m pretty damned sure Han Solo was a biker.”
She giggled. “You mean, like a space biker?”
“See, when you say it like that it sounds stupid.”
“I wanted to be Princess Leia. She’s badass,” she said, taking a deep drink of her beer. I watched as her lips wrapped around the neck, her throat swallowing. Oh fuck, that was good. She set the beer down on the coffee table with a clink, then let loose with the biggest burp I’d ever heard.
“Fucking hell,” I said, stunned. “I didn’t think girls could burp like that. Shit. Impressive, Mel. Very impressive.”
She grinned at me.
“We’re friends,” she told me. “And friends don’t need to worry about stuff like that. Let me guess—you’ve never had a female friend before?”
“Not really,” I admitted. “I’m think I’m a little scared.”
Scared and turned on, which was weird.
“You should be. I can do the whole alphabet.”
Damn. I kinda wanted to see that.
