Blog Tour and Review ~ Chrome: With a Heart Forged in Steele (Carolina Bad Boys Book 4) by Rie Warren







CHROME

With a Heart Forged in Steele

Boomer Steele is big. He’s bad. He’s the Retribution MC pres. He’s been dealt the worst hand imaginable and bears the scars inside and out. Not that anyone knows it. He’s watched his younger brother and sister hook up and hitch up with the loves of their lives, and now he’s the last Steele standing alone. Maybe he should keep it that way.

Then one feisty honey makes him feel, gets in his grill, pisses him off.

She goes by the name of Rayce. And that’s exactly what she does on her motocross bike when she’s not busy getting her hands dirty with her fellow grease monkeys as the only female mechanic at Stone’s Garage. She’s into fixing bikes, racing hers, and making Boomer’s life a living hell just for the fun of it. Oh, and she hates being treated like a girl.

Sparks flying? That’s an understatement where these two are concerned. Yet when Rayce needs a place to live, and Boomer offers her a room in his house, their unquenchable attraction wins out over antagonism. Sometimes. Rayce’s crappy upbringing makes her think love is for stupid fools asking for heartbreak. She’s not willing to go there for any man. 

Not even Boomer Steele.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Note to readers: this book addresses the issue of domestic abuse.

I have read the entire Carolina Bad Boys Series, the spin of Bad Boys of Retribution MC and I have been waiting for Boomers book to be released.  I can honestly say that the wait was so well worth it.  The way that Rie Warren writes her bad boys makes you shiver, makes you melt, and makes you pant.  This is the long awaited story of Boomer and Rayce.

Boomer is the older brother of Brodie and Cat, co-owner of Chrome and Steele and President of Retribution  MC.  He has had his hands full helping his siblings after the death of their parents, running the MC and hiding the pain that he hides from everyone.  Not one to take a shine to anyone, Boomer is knocked on his butt and is chasing himself trying to get Rayce to give in and let him rock her world.

Rayce is interested in Boomer, hurls insults at him every chance she gets and likes to remind him that he is an old man.  FOREPLAY!  When these two finally give into the growing passion that is about to explode between them, it is HOT.  But Rayce is a runner, wanting to hide her secrets, not wanting to let anyone know about her father, the things that he has done to her, the things that he has forced her to do.

But Boomer is not about to let Rayce run,  He wants to protect her, mark her, make her his woman.  When the man that never wanted the commitment and the woman that is terrified of not being enough finally stop running, it is something truly electrifying.

This book is not for the faint of heart.  The things that Rayce has had to endure broke my heart, but she is such a STRONG woman and it is that strength and Boomers love that will help her get to the other side.  We get to see the gentle and vulnerable side of Boomer when he talks to Rayce about the death of his parents and how he blames himself for driving the car that night, the guilt that he feels.  It is Rayce that helps Boomer let go of the guilt and to realize that he is truly not to blame.

I have loved ever book in both series and the fact that all of the characters from the previous books make appearances in this one again, amazing.  I look forward to more in this series, as there are still a few guys that need to meet their female match!  I give this amazing book 5 solid, shiny, chrome stars.











EXCERPT:

I waited an amount of time that almost did my head in. The idea of Rayce, in the same house, half-dressed . . .
I climbed the stairs. They were so delicate and fucking dainty I felt like a giant. At the landing, I hooked left, and immediately ran into Rayce exiting the bathroom on a cloud of total hotness.
The hallway was so small she banged up against me, but not before my eyes spun with the vision of her in a dress, and my tongue must’ve rolled out cartoon-style.
“Boomer!” She spread her palms across my chest where my heartbeat thundered.
She had on some sort of number that ended just above her knees, and it was curve-hugging until it flared at the skirt. The gray and cream pinstriped dress with a deep red belt looked vintage, classy, and I just didn’t have enough mother-lovin’ adjectives to describe it. A floral pattern overlaying the stripes echoed the charcoal-colored tats on her arms. Her tits overflowed the top. Her hips rounded out below the slim waistline. And her legs?
Shit.
Fishnet stockings. And, for the first time, high heels. Make that ankle-length black leather high-high-high heeled boots with metal designs on the toes.
Her perfume dazed me.
Her dress goddamn amazed me.
She snapped her fingers in front of my face. “You in there?”
“You’re wearing a dress.”
Genius, Boomer. You are truly a genius.
Rayce pivoted around, astoundingly graceful. The skirt flipped up to reveal seams on the backs of her stockings. “Like it?”
Liked it so much I was considering banging her against the bathroom door. “Yeah.” I rubbed a hand over my mouth. “You could say that.”
Then she did something entirely feminine, a side of her I’d never truly seen before, and performed a little twirl that lifted the skirt up her firm thighs before she stopped in front of me, her face glowing.
I started sweating, right then and there. “Jesus. You’re gonna give me a heart attack.”
“Serves you right, old man.”
“I wanna be your old man.” Growling, I scooped her into my arms. “Been missing you.”
I wouldn’t say I was at an impasse with Rayce, but I’d hardly seen her in several weeks. That was going to end tonight, after I watched Hunter either crash and burn or end up a happily married man.
My lips slid up the curve of Rayce’s neck, and her skin tasted like hot womanly sweetness. I licked the shell of her ear, ghosted to the corner of her mouth, and touched the point of my tongue against the seam of her lips.
She parted them with a gasp.
I looked down at her with heavy eyelids, our mouths separated by just a breath of space. “Been dreaming about kissing you. Feeling your lips on mine.”
“Why don’t you?” she asked, all throaty and sultry.
“You don’t want it enough yet.” I backed away from her.
She looked at me with glazed eyes, her lips moist and glistening.
Placing my hands against the wall behind me, I curled my fingers, desperate to touch her. “Is JB ready, because if she’s not I’m about ten seconds away from spreading your legs and getting my face on your pussy.”
