Review and Giveaway: Terri Anne Browning's Angel's Halo




Creswell Springs was a small little town in Trinity Count, California. Population 1,500—maybe. It’s a quiet town, with small town values. Its greatest income is the University just outside of the town limits… and the revenue the local Motorcycle Club brings in.

Being part of the MC that was Angel’s Halo was exactly like being part of a family. A scary, powerful, crazy family. It was also like its own society. There are rules, just as there are in every family, every society. But only breaking one of their rules will leave you in a broken, blood pile on the floor…
No one touches Raven Hannigan.

Raven


I was the MC’s only weakness. Or so my father use to tell me as I was growing up. Mad Max Hannigan was once Angel’s Halos’ president. He made the rules and everyone was expected to follow them or come face to fist with the enforcer…
I have spent my life in the middle of the MC. I knew the rules—the penalties for breaking those rules. So I knew what would happen to him if I let him break the golden rule… But I loved him, like I have never loved anyone or anything before. I thought my love would protect him.

Of course it hadn’t. When our secret was discovered he was beaten.
So I shouldn’t blame him for leaving me…

Bash

As the enforcer I knew the consequences. Knew exactly what was in store for me when Raven’s family found out that I had dared to break my MC’s unforgivable rule. I loved her, so it didn’t matter to me. When her oldest brother delivered my punishment I didn’t scream. Didn’t groan. I took it like the man my MC had made me, and would have done it over and over again if that was what it took to be able to call Raven Hannigan mine.
But then my past reared its ugly head and I had a choice to make. One that I have only lived to regret.

Taking on the job as Angel’s Halos’ new president was my second chance. But… would my secrets destroy everything Raven and I once had?

Let me start by saying I adore Ms. Browning’s Rocker series. Let me add this newest series to that list of hers that I adore. Raven Hannigan is untouchable. Literally. Her brothers all hold esteem positions of power in the Angel’s Halo MC, and there is an unspoken law that she is not to be touched. The only one who broke that law is Bash….He wanted her for years, but didn’t’ act on it until she was legally an adult. Once her brothers found out, he was beaten to an inch of his life. He knew the penalty, and she was worth it. Right after the beating, Jet, Raven’s brother and the club’s Prez, figured if Bash was willing to take a beating for her, he could claim her as his own. Only he left town, disappeared without a word to anyone. Raven was left; raw and bleeding emotionally. 

A year later, Jet is now in jail and has called in his right hand man, Bash to act as Prez. When Raven sees Bash come into the family bar where she works, her heart drops. He looks at her like he sees right through her and acts as though she is still his, and time stood still for that year. 

Raven can’t risk her heart again. She still hasn’t gotten over the hurt and she can’t let herself forget that he left HER. Without a glance back in the rear view mirror. There are multiple POV’s in this book and the reader is privy to Bash’s thoughts. She is all he wants and he has regretted every day without her. But he had his reasons….and when Raven accidentally finds out that reason….my stomach plummeted like an elevator. My heart ached for this girl and I so wanted to throat punch Bash. But there are two sides to every story and we do get to hear his side.
This new series is a good one. The secondary characters; Felicity, Spider, Gracie, Hawk, Willa, all add such flavor and richness to the story’s canvas. I can not wait for more.
