Knight

Redemption Road #1

by DJ Jamison

Blurb:

They call me Knight because I’m always trying to save someone…

Unfortunately, I can’t even save myself most of the time. I didn’t save myself from getting involved with the wrong people, from taking the fall for a guy I thought I loved, or from being betrayed by him.

Redemption Road gives me a fresh start. a new family of men who know what it’s like to make mistakes, and a chance to meet a guy who actually deserves my heart. Only problem? He’s a doctor going places far from Riverton–and he’s way too smart to fall for a con like me.

Especially when my past shows up and tries to drag me back into the biker gang I thought I’d escaped.

There’s no running from them. I’ll have to fight if I want my freedom. And there’s a good chance I won’t come out of it alive.

This time, I’ll have to save myself. But as the other ex-cons at Redemption Road step up, I realize I’m not alone. I finally have people who care about me.

And my best friend’s brother, Aiden, tops that list. He’s not only my roommate and casual hookup. He’s becoming the center of my world.

But unless I end this, I can’t stay with him. I’d only put him in danger. So there’s really no choice.

I’m going to get my happy ending–or die trying.

Review:

I loved Aiden & Knight together, both of them bringing more than their fair share of baggage into their relationship. Aiden because he carries a lot of guilt and responsibility for his brother’s time in prison and Knight with his feelings of being unworthy because of his past. But they worked so well together, fit just right. Both of them found a way to take care of the other. Lifting each other up and reminding them of their worth.

This is my first book from Jamison but it definitely will not be my last. Knight caught my attention from the first page and held it til the last. It was funny and steamy but also a little heartbreaking as it touched on the difficulties of life after prison and the problems of rural communities getting reliable health care. I’m sure returning readers loved the opportunity to catch up with previous couples but even as a new reader it was fine. I liked this big, boisterous group of friends and how loud & openly they love one another and look forward to seeing them again.
