Title: Angles in Leather (Rebels On Bikes #1)

Author: Bella Jewel

Release Date: February 13, 2014

Genre: MC Romance

A girl on the run.

Her father gave her one task before he died. To deliver a package.

Now she has the baddest biker in the state after her.

He wants what she's got.

Secrets in both the past and the present threaten to destroy what she is working so hard for.

He threatens to ruin her heart.

Two worlds will collide to make something explosive.

“Fight me, don’t you stop,” Axel breathes into my ear. “I won’t hurt you, Cricket,” he murmurs, running his finger down the side of my face. “But I need you to fight.”

So, that’s what I do. 

I start by squirming, trying to twist my body around. He presses his body against mine, and reaches up, tangling his fingers into the fence. He thrusts his hips, ramming both out bodies harder into the wire. I groan, and throw my head back, hitting him in the face. He snarls, and takes my hands, quickly uncuffing me before pulling them harshly behind my back and jerking my body back into his. 

I hear the cuffs drop onto the ground. 

I guess he’s letting me play this fairly.

“Stop that,” he rasps into my ear. “I’ll make it hurt if you do that again.”

“Maybe I want it to hurt,” I hiss, fisting my hands together and shoving them backwards into his stomach. 

He stumbles off me with a grunt, and I spin around, ducking to the left and attempting to run. I don’t get two steps before Axel lashes out, taking my ankle and pulling me so hard I go down into the dirt. My face just misses being smashed into it by mere centimeters. Axel flattens his body over mine, and takes my head in his hands, jerking my head back by my hair and breathing down on me. “You’re being a bad girl,” he husks, running a finger down the side of my face. 

“You’re not letting me play fair,” I whisper. “I was cuffed before, it wasn’t a fair chase.”

I feel his weight lift off me, and he jerks me up, pulling me into a standing position. 

“Run, then. I’ll give you five seconds, and if I catch you again, Meadow, I’m going to f**k you,” he murmurs, then his eyes grow lusty. “Hard.”

I turn without answering, and I run into the trees at the back of the lot. I hear Axel counting loudly, and my body shivers. I am sweating now, and my breathing is hard and ragged, but the chase is so worth that. I hear Axel take off after me, and I squeal with delight as I weave through the trees. It’s dark, but I can see enough because of the lights surrounding the club house. 

“The minute I get hold of you,” Axel yells. “I’m goin’ to rip your panties down and put my d**k so deep inside you, you’re goin’ to scream.”

I shiver, and swallow. I make my way to the fence line again, and I press myself against it for a second, letting my eyes scan the trees. 

“Then I’m goin’ to kiss you so hard your lips will bleed.”

Oh my. 

I take off, using the fence line as a guide to get back to the other end of the lot. I can hear Axel to my left, and I know he’s gaining on me, but if I run, it’ll make a lot of noise and he’ll figure out where I am. 

“Come out come out wherever you are,” he sings. “You know I’ll make you come so much your legs will give way.”

I feel a smile on my face as I keep moving along the fence, keeping my body plastered against it. I can feel my own arousal dampening my panties, and now I’m eager for him to get his hands on me. I want to know what he’s got to give. 

“You can run, Cricket, but you can’t hide.”

The R♥mance Vault's Verdict: ♥♥♥♥ 1/2 Dark, Biker fueled hearts.

I received an ARC of Angels in Leather in return for an honest review. My reviews are 100% my own and are in no way swayed in my judgment and rating of them because I have received a copy to review. I review as though I have purchased the content and whether I would be satisfied or not.

4.5 biker loving stars as Oh My Lord heavens above: I loved this dark content and all!

Now I can see some having issues with what happens to Meadow, this contains a scene right at the start that some may find hard to read, she want's to die and jumps off a bridge, oh my God that was heart wrenching!  She's then saved by Axel, he's jumped straight in after her and this episode is significant further on in the book so it's a necessary evil to have to read about someone trying to commit suicide.  She hadn't seen Axel for a while and then didn't see him again for a long time and considering she though he was her friend she was hurt that she hadn't seen him.

But then she needs to run from him, as far as she can and as quick as she can.  She made a last minute promise to her Dad who not five minutes before had been fatally shot by no other than Axel himself.  She does as her Dad syas and runs and she's successful in staying ahead of Axel for 1 and a quarter years and then her whole world tilts out of control and then Axel has her and he's not about to let her go.

Axel is dealing with major demons, those demons have turned him into a monster and his scariness is off the charts as is his sexual preferences.  He won't let anyone in and for me as much as the hurt he inflicts on Meadow which is partially inexcusable, I still felt inexplicably drawn to him.  I wanted to make him better.  We get an inkling of what he has gone through at the start causing his angry and scary behaviour and wowsers when I found out the rest!

The supporting cast is excellent, bad ones and all but especially Lady - lol, she's fun as heck and easy to warm too.

This book is well written, it's very visual which actually in some instances you don't want it to be!  (Now there's something I never thought I'd say!)  This is very emotive on all levels not just tearful, this tugs at all your emotions.  I can handle dark romances but I do get that a lot can't on this scale, so be warned this really is dark almost some might say sadistic in places purely because of what Axel initially has been subjected to, he overloads a lot onto Meadow, fighting himself at every turn that he can't possibly enter into anything with her.  He tries his damndest to throw her off.

I loved this, I can handle dark, scarey scenarious that some may find a bit sick and twisted, heck it's fiction and it's all about escapism and I escaped into the world of Angels in Leather, thank everything that is holy that I'll never come across it in real life!  Looking forward to the next book in this series.
