Well, apart from the review I like the writer's topic selection. The writer have chosen the topic of dark suspense thriller type with the touch of romance. Which is more like it for me. According to the reviewer, if this book is really worth reading I will definitely recommend it to my friends.

Add in romance to a story of bikers hunting for a killer, and I am in.

Thank you for the great review.

Dante's Demons by K. L. Barstow is a story of romance and vengeance. When a half-dead woman is found near the entrance to a motorcycle club, the members swear to find out who brutalized her and give him a fitting punishment. The president of the club, Dante, finds out the victim's sister, Tally, is a doctor and has her brought to the club to care for her sister. Tally and Dante meet, and sparks fly as they can't keep their eyes off each other. Dante finds a new obsession in Tally, and she can't help but feel attracted to Dante. Tally, who was brought in against her will, is reasonably upset with Dante, but that isn't enough to stop the attraction they feel as their relationship develops alongside the search for the rapist.

This book was enticing from start to finish. I found myself fascinated in seeing the characters follow leads to try and find the man who attacked Tally's sister and several other women. The members of the club worked diligently to uncover the serial rapist and bring about their own brand of justice. My favorite part was seeing how each member used their specific skill set to do their part to find the rapist. They also embraced Tally and her sister, showing their loyalty to anyone considered to be family, even if they had only known them for a few days.

The pacing of the book followed the urgency of the plot. There were no points where I felt like there wasn't something happening that advanced either the case or Tally and Dante's developing relationship. I can think of nothing that I didn't like about it. I also only spotted a few errors throughout the book, so I believe it was professionally edited.

I am happy to rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. Barstow created a sense of tension and urgency from the first page the continued to the last. It's not a particularly long book either, so it's perfect for a rainy afternoon or day at the beach.

There is strong language and erotic scenes; it is only suitable for adult readers. It should not be read by those who dislike sexual content, as there are several erotic scenes in the book. There are also instances of rape and sexual harassment, which might be triggering for some readers. However, readers that enjoy vigilante justice and romance should highly consider reading this book.

Thanks for your passionate review! It sounds like a thrilling book with romance between characters. However, I don't enjoy reading about violent crimes like rape or sexual assault so this one is a pass for me.

A story of romance and vengeance, containing some violence and sexual content. So I'll take a pass on this one.

I comprehend the review as if I read the book itself, the contrast of Love and Vengeance is always a good blend for me and makes the story interesting creating the exact drama needed to make the book interesting.

What an absolutely captivating storyline! I'm genuinely eager to find out if the perpetrator ultimately faced the consequences they deserved and justice prevailed. Thanks for an interesting review!

Great review. I like the setting which led to the plot, although it did not appear organic. Why would her sister be called in to solve a crime? I guess the meeting between Dante and Tally had to occur, no matter what.

I am very picky when it comes to romance novels; due to the sexual content you mentioned, I don't think this one is for me. Even the cover picture of this book is too greasy for me... :roll: However, I like the thought that members of a motorcycle club show compassion to a woman who was obviously hurt very badly. Thank you for your wonderful review!

Something about a man named Dante will always make people (especially ladies) go "Uuuuuuuh" and ""Aaaaaah"". Ahaha...

This book is recommended for adult readers. It has strong language and sexual scenes. A bikers club discovers the raped, practically unresponsive girl and utilizes their skills to find the perpetrator. Excellent review, but not my cup of tea.
