Motorcycle Man


This is the last book in Kristen Ashley's Dream Man series. Out of all 4 books, my favorites were Mystery Man and Motorcycle Man. 
Tack finally gets his own book! We met Tack in the first book, Mystery Man, and he was definitely an awesome character. He's a biker AND the leader of a motorcycle gang. I was shocked when I learned his real age... and so was Tyra. 
Tack is definitely still as great as he was in Mystery Man. He was married before, and now we know why he divorced his ex-wife. She's a crazy you-know-what. Tack now settles for one night stands, because it didn't work out with him in Gwen (from Mystery Man). Gwen was the one girl Tack thought he could be with, that is until Tyra came along. Tyra definitely fits into Tack's motorcycle world, and after their one night stand, Tyra forgot to mention that Tack is her new boss... 
Tyra was devastated when Tack made her leave his bed. She knew he was the one, but he doesn't care about her. When Tack sees her the next day, he tries to make her quit the job and leave because he doesn't sleep with women who works for him. But Tyra doesn't leave and she points out that it'll never happen again anyways. However, as Tack and Tyra see more of each other everyday, Tack realizes that Tyra is the woman for him and he'll definitely never let her go again.
Characters from the previous books do make appearances in this book. The book is also action packed and it is the last book in the series.

Mystery Man


image
Just finished reading this book this afternoon and I’m surprised to admit that it was actually a great read from start to finish. I mean, there were some parts in the book where I was just like “wth, come on already, or again?!?”. However, the story was great, the characters definitely had chemistry, and there was definitely an alpha thing going on. 
I recommend this book to fans of Romance or whoever wants to start a new series. This is the first book of the Dream Man series by Kristen Ashley
Description:
While drinking cosmopolitans, Gwendolyn Kidd meets the man of her dreams. Then she takes him home. Then she wakes up alone. But her fear that she lost her dream man turns into a relationship with a mystery man when, night after night in the dead of night, he comes back for more. Hoping it will blossom into something real, she lets him.

But she doesn’t even know his name.

Gwen’s struggling with the decision to end their crazy non-relationship when her sister-from-hell, Ginger’s best friend pays a visit and warns Gwen that if she and her sister don’t get smart, they’ll both get d-e-a-d, dead. Gwen has no clue what’s going on but she’s used to Ginger’s antics and decides to lay the problem on her sister’s biker boyfriend’s doorstep. Bad choice. She hits the Denver Underground radar with a big, loud ping.

This means Gwen’s Mystery Man, Cabe “Hawk” Delgado has to step in to keep her safe. But when Hawk gets a dose of Gwen in the daylight, he makes the decision that he finally wants real with Gwen. However when Gwen gets a dose of badass, bossy, straight-talker Hawk in the daylight, she decides she’s done.

Thus begins the head-to-head of the Commando vs. Cosmo Girl as Hawk woos Gwen in his own unique way, Gwen survives firebombs, drive-bys, kidnappings, hot pursuits by biker hotties and gorgeous police detectives and discovers the heartbreaking reason why Hawk kept her at arm’s length.

And as all this happens, Gwen finds that her sister’s troubles are serious trouble and she must decide who to keep alive: her sister-from-hell or the man of her dreams.
