This was the first novel I have read by this author but it won't be the last. This novel grabbed me from the very first chapter to the very last one. I loved Olivia and Cliff. The chemistry between the two of them is off the charts. This novel kept me on the edge of my seat. Cliff and Olivia had both been through so much I was rooting for them. I can't wait to see what this author has in store for her next novel.

A Disturbing Prospect by Elizabeth Barone is book one in the River Reapers Motorcycle Club series. This is the story of Cliff and Olivia. Cliff is getting out of Jail working to get back into life and one choice was to be with the River Reapers Club. Olivia is in college so both are different people yet both have been and are going through hard things. Their story isn't easy and can't be completed in this book, so I can't wait for the next installment in this series.

Really enjoyed this book. Cliff is being released from prison which is not detailed in full until mid story, and Lucy and Olivia help him adjust to how different the world is. Cliff starts working, falling for a girl and leaning how to deal with his past. Can't wait until the next book comes out to see how this story ends!

This is an awesome action packed romance! As a visual reader certain parts I could’ve went without but I overall enjoyed this book and can not wait for the sequel!

Not so much a spoiler but...spoiler alert. However, if you read the trigger warning it won't be.

My only two issues with this book were,
1. A cat was injured. I read the warning and was well aware that it was going to happen but being a cat obsessed woman, I was still emotional about it. This is my own opinion and does not change how I feel about the book at all. Actually, the scene needed to be in the book to prove the lengths an individual will go in that situation. Still...(sad face!)

2. The portrayal of life in prison is NOTHING like it is in the prison nearest to me. My husband is a C.O. in Michigan and the prisoners have so much freedom within those walls that it seems like a vacation rather than a punishment. They have tablets for music, access to cable television, phone calls, and the yard most of the day. However, each and every prison setting is different and just because the one I know of is operated differently does not mean that the prison setting referenced in this book is not as described.

My opinions above did not change my adoration for this book. Elizabeth Barone wrote such beautiful, yet provoking words that I am itching for a sequel. I want to know where life takes them beyond this story. I enjoyed the connections between characters and wished that Lucy would have had a larger role in the story.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed above are solely those of my own.

she is trying to go to school and she works nights at a strip club and she helps her sister by going with her to get her cousin who just got out of jail. he was serving time for saving her. I loved it.

Until now, Olivia has survived by sticking to two simple rules: love 'em then leave 'em, and live out loud. But her odds which were pretty good changed when Cliff walked out of prison and into her life. With his long dark hair, gentle eyes, and secrets, she's dying to unlock him.When I started reading I couldn't put it downElizabeth Barone is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can't wait for the next book.

I love MC-related dark romances and this book did not let me down! I appreciated the trigger warning from the author in the beginning of the book because there were indeed a lot of triggers and I can see where some readers may be bothered, so please take heed to the author's warning. It's there for a reason. A Disturbing Prospect is the story of Cliff and Olivia and the River Reapers MC. The story begins with Cliff's release from prison, while Olivia is away at college, and it's clear that they've known each other, but a lot of backstory and history between them is missing, though there is enough there to make you get these characters and love them. They've gone through some rough stuff, they continue to go through some rough stuff, but Cliff is the quintessential MC guy you love to love. The sex scenes are steamy and well-written and the plot in its entirely is really intriguing. Unfortunately, it is somewhat of a cliffhanger, but that's okay because you get enough to completely be enthralled with the world created in the book but you won't mind waiting for the next installment.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. There is a lot of action, suspense and romance. This was one of those books I didn’t want to put down until I finished it.
