The fairies are very proud to present this book today by one of the most impressive authors of Motorcycle Club Romances, JOANNA WYLDE...
REAPER'S FALL
BLURB
The New York Times bestselling author of Reaper’s Stand is back in her “uber-alpha rough world of MCs”* as one woman’s future is rocked by the man whose hardcore past could destroy her…
He never meant to hurt her.
Levi “Painter” Brooks was nothing before he joined the Reapers motorcycle club. The day he patched in, they became his brothers and his life. All they asked in return was a strong arm and unconditional loyalty—a loyalty that’s tested when he’s caught and sentenced to prison for a crime committed on their behalf.
Melanie Tucker may have had a rough start, but along the way she’s learned to fight for her future. She’s escaped from hell and started a new life, yet every night she dreams of a biker whose touch she can’t forget. It all started out so innocently—just a series of letters to a lonely man in prison. Friendly. Harmless. Safe.
Now Painter Brooks is coming home… and Melanie’s about to learn that there’s no room for innocence in the Reapers MC.
Reaper’s Fall is the newest standalone in the Reaper's MC Series. Painter & Melanie's story is FINALLY here!

A Rock Chick Fairy ARC Book Review
This book is very well crafted as I expected.
Joanna Wylde is amazing when it comes to weaving plots.
Reaper's Fall talks about the kind of love that beats the odds and the kind of love that forgives endlessly.
Painter and Melanie's story may not be all hearts and flowers, but it sure is sweet. I love the fact that their hardships were not sugarcoated in the book. I didn't feel like the plot is pretending to have a happy kind of setting. It's all raw and very straight to the point.
Melanie is a sweet girl with a lot of hopes and dreams for the future. She's that happy sunshine in a dark world. She's full of life, but life has a different plan for her.
At first I thought that Painter is a just like his brothers in the club. All he-man, macho and is very possessive when it comes to women. I knew that he will do everything for the club. He'd even go to jail for them! What I didn't know is that he could be very persistent. He could be very persuasive and he could very well be the sweetest badass in the club.
Their relationship slowly grows here. It's gradual and the anticipation just about killed me. There are a lot of flashbacks too. They were nice to read about. However, I still wanted to go straight to the page wherein everything is already going smoothly. I must admit, at some point here, although I understood where Melanie was coming from, I started to be annoyed at her stubbornness. I like to think that I held on because of that too. Melanie just wouldn't budge, so I wanted to bash her and replace her character. Haha! Anyway, all's well that ends well with them.
The plot made me have conflicted feelings. I understand that the life in an MC is dark, difficult and kind of harsh. However, there are still some things that I wish they didn't do here. In my opinion, the confrontation near the end lacked a little bit of an oomph, which Melanie and Painter gladly made up for in that epilogue.

EXCERPT
“You want to watch a movie or something?” she asked, nodding toward the TV. I had a decent one, too. Giant-ass flat-screen—homecoming present from the club.
“Sure,” I said, reaching for the remote. I didn’t have cable, but Ruger had set up some kind of box thingie for me so I could stream shit. “Whatcha in the mood for?”
“Not horror,” she said quickly, and I laughed again, remembering that first evening I’d spent with her at Pic’s house. She’d been so young and scared and vulnerable . . . I’d wanted to eat her up.
I still wanted to eat her.
“I can’t believe that you and Puck were supposed to be watching over me, and then you put in a slasher movie. That’s not how you make a girl feel safe.”
“No horror,” I agreed, although the thought of holding her for a couple hours while she was scared shitless appealed way more than it should. Watch it, asshole. “How about Star Wars?”
“You like Star Wars?”
I shrugged. “Everyone likes Star Wars. You know, I’m pretty damned sure Han Solo was a biker.”
She giggled. “You mean, like a space biker?”
“See, when you say it like that it sounds stupid.”
“I wanted to be Princess Leia. She’s badass,” she said, taking a deep drink of her beer. I watched as her lips wrapped around the neck, her throat swallowing. Oh fuck, that was good. She set the beer down on the coffee table with a clink, then let loose with the biggest burp I’d ever heard.
“Fucking hell,” I said, stunned. “I didn’t think girls could burp like that. Shit. Impressive, Mel. Very impressive.”
She grinned at me.
“We’re friends,” she told me. “And friends don’t need to worry about stuff like that. Let me guess—you’ve never had a female friend before?”
“Not really,” I admitted. “I’m think I’m a little scared.”
Scared and turned on, which was weird.
“You should be. I can do the whole alphabet.”
Damn. I kinda wanted to see that.
