Motorcycle Man (Dream Man #4) by Kristen Ashley

Tyra Masters is starting a new job as the office manager of  Chaos Motorcycle Club. The day before she starts she attends a party and meets the man of her dreams Tack Allen. After too many tequilas she persuades him to continue the conversation in the bedroom. But, after they share great sex, he tells her she can leave now. "Time to get your own bed , darlin'". One day later , she shows up for work and is told by none other than Tack that she can't work for him because they have slept together. She fights back and she wins by saying that when they slept together she was not an employee yet.
Tack has numerous problems going on. Some of the bikers are not happy with the Club. His ex-wife is being obnoxious and using his kids to get to him. The last thing he needs is "Red" complicating his life. But, when Red decides that she has had enough, suddenly he is not sure he wants to let her go.
The dialogue in this book is probably the best I read this year. He can be crude but he can also say the most unbelievable sweet things. At the beginning of the book, I didn't like him as much as I liked him in book 1, Mystery Man. By the end, this was my absolute favorite in the series. I cried a couple of times.
Just as a side note, Tack reminds me so much of JAX from Son's of Anarchy. Charlie Hunnam was my Tack.

I wish someone had told me earlier how good Kristen is as a writer.  I would buy any of her books.

Law Man (Dream Man #3) by Kristen Ashley

Mara Hanover had a tough upbringing. Her mother didn't take good care of her. She has developed a low self esteem problem. She categorizes herself as a 2.5.
Her neighbor Mitch Lawson, a cop is definitely a 10 or more. He is her dream man. She has had a crush on him for four years.
When her faucet stops working, nice man Mitch comes to the rescue. She tries to avoid him a couple of times. But, when her cousin's children are in trouble, she let's him help her.
Mitch has liked his neighbor for a long time but she keeps on avoiding him. Finally, she starts opening up and he is thankful for it.
Mitch is probably one of my favorite characters. He is just a great guy and easy on the eyes. He has no problem committing to Mara and her new children.
One of the thing I love the best about Kristen's writing is that the characters are all down to earth people. They do regular jobs, do regular chores. I love her books. Recommend the whole dream series.

Mystery Man (Dream Man #1) by Kristen Ashley

Gwendolyn Kidd's life  became complicated after meeting the man of her dreams.  She met him over a year ago. 
She saw him walking into the restaurant where she was drinking Cosmos, keeping her friend's company. In that second she fell in love with him. She took him home and slept with him. He leaves during the night without leaving his name or number. To her surprise he continues to appear to her at night. Gwen is too scared to talk to him and discovers that he may not feel the same way.  
Gwen's life changes when a friend of her crazy sister Ginger knocks on her door and informs her that she will be in serious trouble if Ginger doesn't return the money.
Gwen decides to visit her sister's last boyfriend Dog, who is part of Chaos a biker's club. When she gets there she discovers that they are not a couple anymore but she also meets hottie number two, Tack, Chaos's president.  She finds him attractive and vice versa.
Once she gets back home, her mystery man is there, in DAYLIGHT! He is mad at her for getting noticed in the underworld of crime. She is not happy with his super alpha behavior and realizes that maybe she is wrong about him being her Dream Man. 
Cabe "Hawk" Delgado is super pissed at Gwen. He is trying to keep her safe and has had her under surveillance for a while.  He knows her sister is trouble and on top of that, Tack has noticed his woman. To makes matter worse, we meet Mitch, good cop, and hottie number three who throws his hat in, on the fight for Gwen's attention. 
Can Gwen survive the mess her sister placed her in? Can she survive Hawk? Yes he is Hot, but he is also bossy, arrogant and exasperating at times.


I enjoyed this book, many funny parts. I liked that Hawk had nice competition. Both Mitch and Tack were good to Gwen. Tough choice for a lucky girl. Elvira as a secondary character is too cool.
