I've been waiting for Ranger's story for what seems like forever. When we first met him in Arrow's Hell, Anna and Arrows story, I was immediately intrigued. He just had this air about him, you just never really knew what he was thinking. When I received his book I dove right in hoping for the magic that came from the rest of the books in this series. And while I did enjoy this book it was missing something. A cop and a biker dating I felt should have had a lot more drama and action to the story. Compared to the stories of the other couples in this series Ranger's was tame to the point of almost being boring.

Johanna was your typical Chantal Fernado female character. Bad ass, tough as nails, sassy, but still had that touch of sweet that drew her man in. As a cop, a hot blonde one at that, she didn't let her sex or appearance dictate how people treated her. She worked hard and proved her worth. She didn't back down from a challenge and went into everything headstrong and fierce. I loved her character.

This story was written well as the author always does, we got to check in with some of our favorite Wind Dragons and see a side of Ranger we hadn't seen before. But like I already stated there wasn't enough action to the story, I was left filling unfulfilled.

Crossroads is the sixth book in the Wind Dragon's MC series. This is Ranger's story. If you are just now tuning in and skipped a couple of novels in this series, no biggie, these novels can 'technically' be read as a standalone.

Ranger stood beside Talon when their old MC 'Wild Men' crumbled and fell apart. He's still standing beside his best friend, only now they are part of the WIND DRAGONS MC. Talon fits in perfectly but Ranger is standing at a crossroad and which path he chooses only he can decide. Should he stick with the MC life or move on and venture on with his own life?

Jo is a police woman and is on the biggest case of her life, personally and career wise. After her cousin is abducted by a human trafficking ring, Jo makes it her life's mission and won't stop until her cousin is found.

Ranger is enlisted by Faye (Sins Wife) to help Jo find her cousin. He agrees to help when he sees the woman they are searching for was once considered a good friend.

I found this novel interesting, I was curious to see exactly how this would play out.

Jo is a hard-headed, stubborn woman, but when she's alone with Ranger, she unleashes all of her greatest fears and allows her soft sensitive side to shine through. Ranger is this typical bad ass biker on the exterior but inside he is the sweetest man with a heart of gold.

I loved watching Ranger and Jo, both, let their walls down when it comes to the other. Ranger has always hated cops and at the beginning of this novel Jo is no exception, Jo lives by the word of the law, so she knows Cops and Bikers don't mix well together, but the attraction between the two is too strong to ignore!

The twist (every great romance novel has them), OMG this twist, I literally wanted to strangle Ranger for 'withholding' information from Jo.

I'm extremely sad by the fact that the WIND DRAGONS MC series is now officially over, I've loved every character written, every story told, every page turned. Chantal Fernando has given us a world that is breathtaking, heartwarming, and fueled by lust. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing the Wind Dragons with us. The Wind Dragons MC is a series that I will never forget!

Ranger was always hard to gage in other books. I loved what I discovered when reading his and Jo's story. When the biker and the cop are paired on an investigation to find a woman, who happens to be an old friend of Ranger and cousin to Jo, the sparks fly between the two.

I really liked that it didn't take long for Ranger to know that what he felt for Jo was special and different. She compliments him in very good ways. The seemingly unmatched pair have a lot of wade through including the fact that they are from totally different worlds and some drama with another woman. I strongly disliked the woman in question and felt the issues concerning her should've been handled quicker than they were.

The plot ties in with the previous couples well though there doesn't seem to be much in the way of movement on some of the main lines. This was ok for me because it allowed for the focus to be on the current pair. It felt different from how the author handled other breakout stories. All in all an entertaining read.

I received an arc copy of this book in return for an honest review.

This series is probably my most favorite MC series. Throughout we have been getting to know the characters, as a club, as friends, as lovers, as family. Ranger is slightly different.

Ranger is originally from the Wild Men MC, now along with Talon (his old MC pres) they are now part of Wind Dragons. Ranger feelings are mixed, he loves the club but feels a little adrift. He feels a bit alone and lost and at a crossroads as to where his life might lead him. Faye decides to enlist his help on a case of a missing woman. Unknown to Faye, it happens to be a woman Ranger knew in his youth. Worse yet, not only does Ranger have to work along side a cop, this cop is also the missing woman’s cousin.

Right from the start of this book you just know your gonna be sucked in. When Ranger meets Jo the chemistry bursts out of the page. He has never felt this way before and he’s determined to see where it goes. Jo feels it too, but he’s a biker and her career is at stake, not only that she needs desperately to find her missing cousin. Ranger his hot, charming, sexy and he makes Jo feel things she never has before. Their attraction is indisputable ! As the case becomes deeper and more dangerous, they both try not to give into their feelings.

I loved how Ranger and Jo’s relationship develops. Their humor and banter left me in plenty of giggles. Their steamy hot scenes left me panting for more !!!! but most of all it was that even though they were both on the same page emotionally, logically they were both vulnerable, knowing both their lives were on opposite tracks of the law. Throw in a few twists you don’t see coming, especially with Jo’s missing cousin and this couple really do have to fight to stay together. Will the Wind Dragons accept a cop in their midst? Will Jo risk her job and reputation?

You really need to pick this book up, it could be read as a standalone even if you haven’t read the rest of the series, although you would understand all the other characters involved if you did. I loved the passion in this book, I loved the characters, and i love how its written, you feel part of the story and fully engaged from beginning to end. I couldn’t put it down. If anything I love this series and this authors writing even more. Chantal Fernando never fails to deliver and book you can read, love and enjoy over and over again !!!

I think this is going to be the last book of this series that I read (if it's not already the last book of the series). I started off with high hopes for this book but the more that I read the more disappointed in it I became.

This book very much follows the formula of the previous books in the series. There starts off with some big dangerous thing or event that draws the characters together. Once that gets resolved, fairly too quickly, our couple spends some happy time together until something stupid years then apart again. In the beginning of the series this worked for me but now I kinda hoped for something different.

This book is for you if you don't mind instalove. I, however, find it unrealistic and annoying. Both characters experienced instalove but I do have to say that Jo was a little bit less annoying about it than Ranger.

I was hoping for more from this and was disappointed to find just the same old story. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the galley.

I have been intrigued by Ranger since he first appeared. I have hoped for his book and for him to find a woman. I wanted to know his story. I was also curious what kind of woman be his "one". On opposite sides of the law, a biker and a cop, come together to find a missing woman. Sparks fly and chemistry cannot be denied for long. The cousin causes some problems for them. After quite a few large hurdles, they finally get their happy ending together. This story had a complicated twist that even though I should have expected it, I didn't. I didn't care for it, nor did I care for the cousin. This was a good story that pulled me into it from the start. There were times that I wanted to reach into the book and smack these two with their own back for the crap they were pulling. They were a little annoying at times. The sex scenes though were quite steamy.I was sad to say goodbye to this world once again, but happy Ranger finally received his happy ending with a good woman. I loved the epilogue (giggle).This was a good read. I hope this series continues. I love seeing all the characters from previous books interacting.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Only Ms. Fernando can bring a biker and a cop together and do it with such believability. I have wanted to hear Ranger’s story for some time now and I have to say I was not disappointed at all. As a matter of fact I LOVED it. This is a book that you will read in its entirety once you start. Faye has Jo and Ranger team up to find out who kidnapped Jo’s cousin and a person from Ranger’s former life. It was suspenseful and kept you on the edge of your seat. The relationship that then formed between the bad*ss biker, Ranger, and the cop, Jo was a true love story…but done biker style.

Ranger and Jo’s characters were written with style and had me feeling so deeply invested in their relationship. I also loved that the Wind Dragons’ women were also a big part of this story as well. I have always felt that Ms. Fernando had written these women with a strong backbone and were women to be looked up to. That’s not to take anything away for the Wind Dragon MC men because they all still came off just as hot as ever.

This story will bring about many surprises and quite a few emotions. I have to say that when this series ends I’m going to miss all of these people because the author did justice to each and every one of them as far as making you feel a part of their lives. This is a series that if you haven’t read from the start, do yourself a favor and pick up all the books and enjoy.

I received this book from NetGalley as an ARC for a freely given and honest review.

While I did enjoy this book, I did have some small issues with it. It was nothing major, just this book wasn't as entertaining as the others in this series. I loved Ranger, he was great and Jo got on my nerves through most of the book, but I did like her. I loved being able to get some updates on previous characters. I love this series and I can't wait for more.

Another great MC read from this author! Crossroads is a stand alone about the Wind Dragons MC and is mysterious, action-packed and has a romantic side!

Being in an MC means that you are pretty much a bad ass and sometimes do things illegally. That means befriending cops is a no-no. But even when the cop is beautiful, it maybe be hard to resist.

Ranger has been asked to help find a missing woman that's he's known and he needs to work with Johanna Chase, a detective on the case, who also happens to be related to the missing woman. The chemistry is burning between these two, but what good can come from a cop and a MC member?

4.5 Stars
This is book 6 in the Wind Dragons Series but it really can be read as a standalone, I haven't read all of the books in this series but that didn't detract from my enjoyment of this book.
Ranger is at a crossroads does he stay with the Wind Dragons MC or move on and do something else with his life. What he doesn't expect is to be asked to help find a missing girl and it's not just any missing girl it's a friend from his past...
Johanna is not only one of the police officers assigned to find the missing girl she is also her cousin. Is she prepared to work with a member of a MC club even though she knows she needs his skills to navigate the underground world...
What happens when feelings start coming into the mix, you will need to read the book to find out.
The characters have sizzling chemistry, the banter between them will bring a smile to your face and the story is full of twists and turns. Once I started reading there was no putting down and I really hope we get more from The Wind Dragons MC. Brilliant read

Im totally not into trope where the H/h are muddying the waters with other people, however, the author does a great job allowing the plot to unfold. By the end, I was rooting for everyone- and that seldom happens!

"Love doesn't come easy-there's always a war, or a battle, but it makes you appreciate it more."


Ranger joined the Wind Dragon MC because his best friend Talon was joining. However, Ranger is having doubts and he's still unclear if he wants to remain as part of the club or leave it and start a new civilian life. He hasn't made his final decision when he's asked by Faye to help her search for a missing girl named Elizabeth. When Ranger realizes she's a friend he met and spent time with in Europe many years ago, he knows he can't walk away.

Johanna Chase is a police detective. She's also Elizabeth's cousin. Johanna will do anything to find her cousin and bring justice to the men who took her. She's surprised when the FBI asks Ranger for his help but she knows she's willing to work with him in order to find Elizabeth.

Neither was expecting to like each other. They also weren't looking into anything serious. After all, what can a cop and an MC guy have in common?

The Wind Dragon series is a great MC series. It impossible not to like the characters. As crazy as Faye is, she's still a formidable woman. I love how she messes with everyone's lives. She would do anything for her "family" and she was trying to make Ranger feel at ease as part of the group.

"She grows on you."
"Like a fungus."


Crossroads was another fun novel in this series. One of the things I love the most is how the characters interact with each other. Both women and men have great banter. Even so, I do have two complaints. First, it had an insta-love vibe which is not my thing. Second, I wasn't crazy about how the conflict was resolved. It kinda made me sad. Still, I hope for more books in this MC group.

Cliffhanger: No

3/5 Fangs

I just read all of the Wind Dragons MC series, and it was the perfect work up to Crossroads, which is book 6.


We all know how Ranger came into the Wind Dragons and when Faye asks for some help finding a missing woman, Ranger says yes, even though it means working with the cops. When Ranger realizes that the cop he is working with will be Jo, the woman's cousin, he becomes a bit more willing to help.


Jo has wanted to be a cop for as long as she can remember, when the help she gets to find her cousin comes in the form of a biker, Jo is unsure of what to think, but at this point she will take whatever help she can get.


What happens when the biker starts to look at the cop in a different light? They decided that while they are looking they will just be Jo and Ranger, and worry about being the cop and the biker for a little while. What happens when they get back to the real world, the one where cops shouldn't be with bikers, and bikers should definitely not be with cops? Will they be able to make this work, or will the pressure from both sides be too much?


So first off, I am a bit sad, I really, truly hope this isn't the last of the series; Ronan needs a book, or even the kids! This was an amazing book! I loved the "taboo" of the biker and the cop plot. Chantal Fernando did a fabulous job giving us drama, fantastic sexy times, and a bit of violence, along with the crazy hijinks of the Wind Dragons women. I give this 5 stars, and am ready for more!

Chantal Fernando returns to her Wind Dragons MC with another great book to end this fantatsic series.

I loved Ranger and Jo ! We found out some interesting facts about Ranger in the last book and then we find out that he's at a crossroads in this one. Ranger meets Jo when he gets personally invested in a missing persons case involving her cousin. This was kind of a story about forbidden love. I enjoyed the dynamics between the biker and a cop. To say the least it was complicated by more than one obstacle and the author threw in a few unexpected twists. All in all, it was a great romance though as Ranger and Jo had to really stand up to everyone and made some hard choices.

I loved this book but I am so sad to see the series end. I've enjoyed each story and getting to know these fabulous characters and laugh and cry with them. I really love Chantal Fernando's storytelling and look forward to whatever she writes next.

A woman is missing and when Ranger realizes who she is, he knows he has to get involved. Part of the Wind Dragons Motorcycle Club, Ranger has resources the cops don't. Although police detective Jo thinks she can get the job done without his help. An unlikely pair - the cop and the biker - they find more in common and their relationship heats up quickly. Red hot romance, action, and mystery make this a great read if you like MC romance!

I loved this one! It's very light on the MC side (I don't mean this as a criticism) and leans more toward romantic suspense. The characters are very interesting and I was enthralled waiting to see which path their life would take. Ranger has recently patched over to the Wind Dragons when his old club The Wild Men basically imploded. He's struggling to find his place in the MC though and has him questioning whether this is really where he wants to be. When Faye pulls him in to help with a case she's handling he knows he can't refuse. This particular case is personal to him. Meeting and working with Johanna Case is just a bonus. Sparks fly between these two but how could anything work between them. He's a biker and she's a cop. When that turns out to be the least of their worries the story really gets interesting.

This is one I would recommend to everyone!

3.5 to 4*


Ranger finds himself at a crossroads. He left the Wild Men MC along with Talon and they both joined the Wind Dragons MC but Talon had family there plus his relationship with Tia and it seemed like he belonged whereas Ranger was alone, feeling lost, the last single man left in the MC.
While he loves the feeling of family that comes with the MC he's not sure it's really for him anymore, he long since lost interest in the easy women that flock to him, he can't remember the last time he had sex and he finds himself wanting more and he finds it in Johanna Chase a stubborn and independent police detective.
Faye asks Ranger to help her with a case, a woman has been missing for two weeks and time is running out. At first Ranger isn't interested but then he sees a picture of the missing woman Elizabeth Chase and he recognises her.
Elizabeth's cousin Johanna will stop at nothing to find her even if it means working with a biker. The more time they spend together the more drawn together Jo and Ranger become and Ranger quickly realises he's found his one, the one woman meant for him and only him but what chance do a biker and a cop have?
I really enjoyed this book, I loved Ranger and while Jo annoyed me at times with her self sacrificing attitude for the most part I really liked her as well. It started well and the first half is strong, I'll admit I expected more from the second half partly I think because in the previous books the author has usually thrown something at the couple involved but that didn't happen here.
I had a couple of small issues (I know when don't I?) but on the whole I really enjoyed this plus as with all the previous books we get to catch up with the other characters as well.

#### SPOILERS ####

Elizabeth has been kidnapped along with several other women but thanks to her cousin Johanna, Elizabeth's face is everywhere so I have to ask why the kidnappers would risk taking her to a gas station let alone one with cameras.
Okay so I know this is how Jo and Ranger found her but it just seemed stupid.
Also she's not a virgin so it made no sense that at some point she wasn't raped.
Don't get me wrong I was relieved she wasn't but it didn't seem to fit, if it had been younger girls and their virginity was being sold then I could understand it but in this case no.

I have read all but one novella in this series and this is my favorite story. If only we could all have Ranger as a boyfriend/husband/partner. There is not a lot of the MC lifestyle in this story as it is more of a relationship saga of how even the most unbelievable relationships can work with love and understanding and compromise. I loved both Ranger and Jo. Fantastic characters who really worked hard to make their relationship work.

Crossroads by Chantal Fernando is book six in The Wind Dragons MC series.
Meet Ranger- Cameron a MC member and Jo- Johanna a detective.

Both are out to rescue Elizabeth, a Ranger´s friend and relative from Jo. Elizabeth was kidnapped.
They need each other to bring her back. They investigate together and free her.
There is a strongchemistry between these two. But they live in different worlds. Can Jo and Ranger make it work? Who´s to make sacrifices? And there is Elizabeth with a major crush on Ranger.

I greatly enjoyed reading this book. And I read and loved the other books in this series, each single one.
This series is very well written and I liked the characters. I liked the words and I love Chantal Fernando´s writing. I Highly recommend Crossroads and the Wind Dragons MC Series.
5 Stars. Thank you !!

I'm surprised by this one.

I kind of expected the book to be a little less MC involved however it's not so much that their not involved as much as ranger isn't as attached to them as I thought he'd be.
It starts of with ranger being pushed by Faye to help out in a case that is closer to home than anyone realises. What start as two complete opposites, basically enemies become lovers. They never had the easy route their jobs/lifestyle was already going to be a wall in the road. It's not so much angsty as it is suspenseful. The story is pretty seemless, the character development is great throughout. I loved hearing from past characters and the fact that a few had a pretty active part in the story.

Ranger for me just seemed like a nomad. Although he's in the MC he never really had any attachments there. I loved that he was a very up front no bullshit kind of guy. He knew what he wanted and went straight for the kill. He does make a few silly mistakes near the end which he does a good job of rectifying however I'm very stumped slightly pissed, a little heart broken and equally in love for what he did for Jo. He's definitely a selfless man when it comes to her and willing to do anything to make her happy.

Jo is also a great lead. She's strong and feisty but soft and sweet when needed. Her character is extremely admirable and her growth throughout is a pleasure to read. She kept surprising me.. I thought she'd fight the attraction more but she didn't. To be fair she was just as upfront with it as him. I enjoyed how loyal she was even if it did bite her in the ass. But the main thing is even when ranger did fuck up she made him work for it without being bitchy. She's fair and cool however I was a little gutted she didn't fight rangers decision at the end, I really wanted her to stand up and fight more for him. (Trying not to give to much away as it's a big shocker in the story).

Their chemistry is seriously smoking. The sex was a hoot! And the banter between them had me chuckling aswell as their relationship with other characters in the book. It has a little of everything in this story and definitely keeps you in your toes. I really enjoyed mostly everything in this book. A few niggly bits that pissed me off a tad however by the end of that cute ass epilogue all was forgiven.

I have a feeling this is the end of this series? It kind of felt finalised however I hope not. There isn't many MC series's out there like this one. I've been a big fan since the beginning so I hope there's more to come.
