I loved the first book and I wanted to read Wraith's book so much. And I loved Wraith.
When the Club president gets arrested its up to the VP to run the club.
But so many things happening at the same time.
He has to run the club, make sure that his Club President doesn't get dead in prison and stay away from the club president at the same time as making sure that she is looked after.

Prinie and Wraith have this attraction to each other. But Wraith thinks he should stay away from her because he has demons and is afraid to hurt her. But Prince believes that Wraith will do anything to take care of her and she knows that she can make it work but she has to convince Wraith that he is exacy what she needs

I enjoyed this one so much, I knew I would. I have to say some parts I really wanted to smack Prinie. I thought that Wraihh was during with so much and it felt like she was so needy. But Wraith was amazing. The story was good. It was full of suspense action drama and intense moments that you won't see coming. I can't wait for the next book in this series💖😊

4 STARS!

The story is so much more than a simple MC romance. Wraith has such a broken past that he can’t seem to escape from no matter how hard he tries. It’s disturbing, tragic and completely heartbreaking to read about. I really didn’t know what I was getting into but the minute Wraith’s story begins to unravel, you start getting that uneasy feeling as you read on knowing it’s not going to be so pretty.
This book is not for the fainthearted. It delves into serious subject matter that can be triggering for anyone. It contains detailed violence, addiction, drug and sexual abuse. It can be a difficult topic to read about, so please keep in mind before starting this book.
Whilst I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story, there’s a lot to take in. Most of it is set in a dark, gritty atmosphere with constant problems arising, not only for Wraith and Prinie’s relationship, but for the MC itself. It keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Wraith and Prinie have quite a journey. It's full of hurdles and it feels like the world is always against them but coming away from this read, you realize how much they both grow as individuals and as a couple. The character growth is extraordinary -- especially from Wraith's POV. If you enjoy a slow burn romance, this will right up your alley.
It’s also unpredictable and oh-so suspenseful that it’ll keep you reading! The constant questions and second-guessing added extra excitement to this forbidden/ hate to love MC romance.
A beautiful story of family, growth, overcoming adversaries, and moving on from the past. A steady paced storytelling told perfectly from Wraith and Prinie’s POVs. It’s a story full of emotion that’ll have you sighing in contentment once you reach the last page. A great sequel and addition to the Houston Defiance MC series.
Although each book centers around a different hero/ heroine, I recommend you read Explosive first because the books do interconnect. You’ll get a better grasp of the world and the relationships within.

Thank you netgalley for the digital ARC ! I immediately went and bought every book from this author! I cannot wait for the next story! Each couple in this series is so unique and has their own storyline and i just love them all!

Addictive is the second title in the Houston Defiance MC series, featuring Wrath and Prinnie. Whilst you can read this dark and gritty title as a standalone, I highly recommend that you read Explosive first as this title continues on from the events that occurred in Zero’s book.
Wraith and Prinnie’s story is an emotional, forbidden romance. This pair has a tumultuous relationship full of miscommunications, denial and feuds.
Prinnie is strong willed, stubborn, sassy and quick witted. She’s driven, determined and very persistent when she wants something. She’s also incredibly vulnerable from events of her past, yet also incredibly resilient and strong.
Wraith is haunted by his past, which is not only tragic, but quite disturbing and his present is fueled by rage and pain.
Despite the fact that Prinnie is off limits, this pair are inexplicably drawn to each other, and whilst their banter is often argumentative, and antagonistic, it’s also quite flirtatious.
If you enjoy an MC romance full of action and intrigue, with unpredictable and surprising twists and turns Addictive is the book for you.
Although full of family, friendship, love and loyalty, this title also contains some scenes that may be triggers for some readers.
I will be eagerly awaiting the next title in the Houston Defiance MC series.

I do love myself some bikers and while I have seen KE's books before I never read one, I know I know, what the hell have I been thinking, but dont worry I have corrected my utmost mistake. So I started with this book and stopped and grabbed the first one- review later. But damn where was I. This book was, kaboom! Addictive was exactly that Addictive. It was emotional, gritty, and hawt!!! Grab it but start reading when you have time!!

ADDICTIVE is the second instalment in KE Osborn’s contemporary, adult HOUSTON DEFIANCE MC erotic, MC romance focusing on the members of the Houston Defiance MC. This is twenty eight year old, club Vice President Talon aka ‘Wraith ‘ , and twenty year old Kharlie aka ‘Prinie’’ Walker’s story line. ADDICTIVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading book one EXPLOSIVE for back story and history. Some of the timeline of ADDICTIVE runs parallel to and over laps with Explosive-the current time line picks up immediately after the events of book one.


WARNING: Due to the graphic subject matter of the story line premise, there may be some triggers for more sensitive readers.


Told from dual first person perspectives (Prinie and Wraith) using present day and memories from the past, ADDICTIVE follows the forbidden relationship between is twenty eight year old, club Vice President Talon aka ‘Wraith ‘ , and twenty year old Kharlie aka ‘Prinie Walker. Twelve years earlier, a then sixteen year old Talon escaped a life from h*lll only to find himself struggling to fit in until the day he meets Houston Defiance MC then VP Krew ‘ Zero’ Walker who will take Talon under his wing, introducing him to the family he will come to call his own. Fast forward to present day wherein the tempestuous relationship between Prinie and Wraith reveals a prior history that is about to rain h*ll upon our story line couple but a police raid on the Houston Defiance compound finds Zero taken into custody as the MC members struggle to make sense of it all. With Wraith now the temporary President, our ‘anti-hero’ must take command in an effort to free his friend before there is no life to be freed. What ensues is the building but forbidden relationship between Prinie and Wraith; Wraith’s struggle with demons of the past; and the battle to protect the MC president from the fall-out of a vendetta years in the making.


The relationship between Prinie and Wraith is one of second chances; a forbidden romance wherein Wraith battles the demons that threaten to destroy the woman he loves, and an ‘addiction’ and need to punish anyone who gets in his way. The $ex scenes are disturbing and intense-with emotional and dark scenarios of erotic asphyxiation.




Once again there is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters, most of whom are members of the Houston Defiance MC: Club President Krew ‘Zero’ Walker and his old lady Rayne aka Cherry: Zero and Prinie’s younger brother Koda; Phantom, Liam aka ‘Kevlar’, and his brother Ethan, Fox and Bub, Texas, Neon, Chains and Chills (Dr. Rebecca), and their son Kobe, as well as prospect Luc, and his girlfriend Ruby, and attorney Finley Knight. The requisite evil has many faces.


ADDICTIVE is a dark and gritty story; a heart breaking and emotional tale of a young man whose life was destroyed by the very people who should have loved and protected him. The premise is controversial and dramatic; the characters are broken, struggling, battered and survivors; the romance is energetic and raw.

This book wasn't what I expected. It's threw me for a loop. But I loved it! Awesome job!! I would recommend this book to anyone!

This is an exciting action packed story.But deep inside Wealth loves Prinie the club president an his best friends Zeros little sister.The things Wealth went through growing up made him have a bad habit of strangling off the air of the woman he had sex with its a darkness he can't seem to shake.When one night after drinking too much Prinie won't take no for an answer but when he starts to grip her neck an she can hardly breathe she's clawing at his arms he lets her go as she falls to the floor she tries to get him to talk to her but he dresses an leaves without a word.The next morning she's gone an Wealth feels guilty an so hollow inside.A year later she's back an he avoids her like the plague.He loves this woman an wants her as his but the darkness inside is too much an so he stays away from her .Will Zero get over the fact that Wealth slept with is sister?Will Wealth keep his promise to stay away?Or will Prinie prove to Wealth that he's a good man deep inside?There are so many twists and turns to this story will keep you riveted until the very last page and leave you begging for more.I love the way this amazing author brings the characters to life before your eyes and makes you feel their emotions and their pain.I can hardly wait to see what's next by this multi talented author.

The second book in the series and I missed the first one. Seems like I was able to catch up somewhat. This story focuses on Wrath and Prinie. Wraith is a very intense character; you get to see this from his past and which the author takes you through up to the present day. Their relationship is just as intense and Wrath is struggling with his demons and is more fearful of himself and the harm he can and could do to Prinie. Though she has seen the intensity from him she is not afraid of him, she wants him she is afraid of him turning away from her.
You also have Zero the club president being arrested which is something from the first book and this goes one also throughout this book. The story is intense and you feel, yes feel the characters the author has drawn you into her story and at times you feel like you are there listen to them. A very good book with very good characters and very much worth the read. Had me all the way to the end. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 5 stars. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com

This was my first ever book by this author and I’m now dashing off to buy more. It was fantastic!

Addictive is the second book in the Defiance series. I know I haven’t read the first, but once I seen this cover, I had to read. Stunning! The story was just so good. It was packed with action and suspense. I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish. Loved Wraith and Prinie’s story.

I’m torn over this one, as I loved the story, but I’m struggling how I feel about Wraith as a character, but then I guess that’s good writing from KE Osborn , she made Wraith so realistic, so morally grey, it’s hard to know how I feel about him, he definitely loves Prinnie, but some of his actions, but then his past, well read the book for yourself. It’s an addictive read, great plot and characters, as you can see by my indecisiveness ! They are developed and fully three dimensional characters , it’s a great story, one I loved even if I haven’t made my mind up about Wraith still, look forward to future books which I’ll definitely be reading

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

Thank you so much to NetGalley and KE Osborn for receiving an ARC for an honest review. Any details in this review are my honest opinion.

I’ve never read a book by this author before but when I saw it on Facebook and the mention of it being compared to the Sons of Anarchy TV show, I automatically was hooked and ready to read.

I was not disappointed either. Wraith’s backstory wasn’t much but was enough to understand his pain, anger, sorrow, etc. I was impressed by how the author portrayed Wraith, the gang and especially Prinie and the emotions that they all feel throughout the book.

I was happy to have an ending to this story but also the author gave us some insight to the next book in the series that’s forthcoming.

Thank you for picking me to read and review this one. This series is now on my TBR pile and this author is now one of my favorites.

PS: it was similar to the Sons of Anarchy and for that I thank you!!!

Houston Defiance MC at its Best!!

Another winner in this series!! The Prez of the Houston Defiance MC had found Wraith in a bar and that was the beginning of Wraith finding a way to fuel his addiction. Prinie had been through so much with watching her parents killed before her eyes and takes off with her little brother Koda. Now a year later she is back and things are just as crazy. Her brother, the Prez/Zero has been arrested and it seems like everyone wants him dead. It’s up to VP/Wraith to keep the club running while trying to get Zero out before it’s too late.

Wraith’s upbringing would bring anyone to tears and it has shaped him into a killing machine. He likes to use his hands to strangle people and that is also played out in his other appetites. So no matter how much Prinie was to be with Wraith he is the one pulling back because he doesn’t want to lose himself and hurt her. Zero has also declared Prinie is off limits to all club members and that most definitely includes his best friend and VP Wraith.

This book was so good that it was a one sit read for me. The chemistry was sizzling, the rollercoaster ride of emotions was constant and the surprises that come are game changers. I would highly recommend this book. Do yourself a favor and read Explosive which is the first book in this amazing series.

Addictive is the 2nd book in the Houston Defiance MC series. I think this book could be read as a stand-alone, but I wouldn't recommend it, because in order to enjoy the complete MC experience, you need to read about each guy in the club!

This book was faced paced, dark and angsty. We got to know some of the side characters better - and see that the family is willing to do just about anything for one another. Prinie and Wraith are pulled to each other and no matter how much they try, they are unable to stop it.

I can't wait for more from this series

If you are a fan of KE Osborn, then you will love this book. Addictive is Wraith and Charlie's book. When the club is thrown into chaos, its up to Wraith to lead them all the while trying to protect the one who should be leading them. The action in this book is amazing and I can't wait to see what happens next.

Sometimes when you read a book, you immediately torn about one of the characters. That's certainly the case with this book and I have to say that it does add a whole new element to the story. While our heroine Prinnie has a complicated past, it's nothing on our hero Wraith.
If this were a different book, from a different point of view, I think he could well be the villain of the piece. Not because of the way that he treats Prinnie, although that is complicated in itself, but because of the other things that he does. I remember reading once that if you show a character loves another, then it helps to win the reader over. There's no doubt that Wraith loves Prinnie, completely and utterly and I think that is the reason that we can relate to him and feel for him in this book.
This is the first Houston Defiance MC book that I've read. I suspect that it might not be the last. I enjoy books that push the boundaries and make us question our perceptions about people. I'm not sure that I'd call this a dark romance, although there is certainly a dark element to the story. Whatever it is, I enjoyed it. Prinnie and Wraith make a great couple and I enjoyed reading their story as it unfolded.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A gut-wrenching story of a MC’s VP and his princess!

Talon had an abusive childhood. His mother was a prostitute who let the Johns have their way with him. After he finally stood up to his mother, he found a new family in the MC and they named him Wraith because he got off on hurting people. A few years later when he meets Prinie ... the President’s sister, he wants her but is terrified that he will physically hurt her because he doesn’t have control over his needs. Prinie doesn’t take no for answer and knows that Wraith will not hurt her. But will ghosts from Wraith’s past steal their happily-ever-after?

I just loved Wraith and Prinie! Even though Wraith thought of himself as a monster ... I felt for him because of the horrendous childhood he survived. Prinie is a strong woman who doesn’t give up on what or who she wants ... and Wraith is who she wants. I didn’t read the first book and I still enjoyed this book because it is about a different couple ... but I will go back and read the first book because I want to know more of the back story. I can’t wait for the next book ... as we got a little sneak peak at the end of this book.

I received an early copy courtesy of Victory Editing NetGalley Coop through NetGalley in exchange for a honest review.

This is not the book for me.
I did not finish this one.

Chocking is a hard no for me. I did not realize this would be in this story.

DNF

Addictive is the 2nd book in the Houston Defiance MC series.

Prinie, is the princess of the MC. Her dad was the past president and her brother is the current president. Prinie does what she wants and has no problem speaking her mind.

To say Wraith had a hard life would be putting it mildly. Wraith’s issues have issues. His addictions are dark and run deep.

This book was faced paced, dark and angsty. We got to know some of the side characters better - and see that the family is willing to do just about anything for one another. Prinie and Wraith are pulled to each other and no matter how much they try, they are unable to stop it.


Thank you to Netgalley (I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review).

Addictive is a dark romance story. Its contains some dark flash backs and shitty pasts. But it also has a hot and steaming romance. Its a easy read but you have to be open minded.
