SYNOPSIS:

Deuce:
The first moment I stared into Ally’s tortured blue eyes, my subconscious knew I’d never escape her. She called to the darkest part of my soul and made it impossible to ignore the strange pull I felt towards her.
Some things are just meant to be.
As long as we were both breathing, my heart would do time with hers. Like the famous outlaw lovers, Bonnie and Clyde, Ally and I committed the perfect crime. I claimed her heart, and she stole mine.
I only meant to save her.
To heal her.
Now, my past threatens to ruin her.
Wanted dead or alive, I’ve got her by my side and together we’ll ride.

Ally:
I thought the world forgot me.
That I had died at fourteen.
But, I never knew life until I knew him.
Rescued and healed, I found love in the face of an outlaw.
Whether he fails or flies, I’ll ride until I die.
I’m his Bonnie and he’s my Clyde.
A love as strong as ours will never die.

*I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

*Carla’s Five Star “Come on baby, Light my Fire” Review

Roamer is the third book in the Nomad series. It can be read as a standalone, but I would recommend reading the other books in the series because they are great!

*Warning-this book contains themes that may be triggers for some readers.

Deuce was born into the MC life. After his father, the President of the Bastards of Mayhem, dies, everything goes to hell. Seeking retribution, Deuce does something that he can’t come back from. Because of this, he becomes a nomad with the Satan’s Knights. He knows his days are numbered, so he is careful to never stay in the same place for long. That all changes the night that he meets a crazy man who convinces him to park his bike and become a member of the Satan’s Knights Brooklyn chapter.

While scoping out some intel from their Albany chapter, Deuce comes face to face with a woman who has hauntingly beautiful blue eyes. Ally. Having been kidnapped at the age of 14, Ally has been used and abused for years. She is currently trapped in the clutches of the Albany president, Rush, who has gotten her addicted to drugs. It isn’t long until chaos ensues, and Deuce ends up rescuing Ally. Now, don’t be mistaken. This isn’t your typical knight in shining armor riding in to rescue the damsel in distress spiel. It is fate bringing two broken souls together. Is it possible for two people who carry more baggage that Delta to come together and create their own version of happily ever after?

As per her usual, Janine has created a story that is sure to keep you glued to your kindle from beginning to end! There is drama. There is suspense. There is sex hot enough to melt your kindle. I mean, what more could a reader want, right? Now, how did I feel about Deuce and Ally? I freakin’ loved them! Life may have dealt them a crappy hand, but they never folded! It was that never give up attitude that brought them together, and nothing but death could keep them apart! If you are looking for a story that will draw you in so completely that the rest of the world will fade away, look no further!

 

Renee’s Five Star Review:

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

Roamer is the third book in Janine Infante Bosco’s Nomad Series. I will warn you that some subject matter in this book may be triggers for some people. I imagine you could read it as a standalone but some of the characters in the book have carried on from the beginning of this series. You do not want to miss Drifter and Wanderer at all so if you haven’t read them buckle up and enjoy the ride.

Deuce knew the first moment he started into Ally’s tortured blue eyes he would never escape her. Ally called to the darkest parts of his soul and made the pull he felt toward her hard to ignore. Somethings however, are just meant to be. Like the famous lovers, Bonnie and Clyde Deuce and Ally committed the perfect crime. Deuce claimed Ally’s heart and Ally stole his. Deuce only meant to save her. Heal her. Now his past threatens to ruin her. Wanted dead or alive, Deuce has Ally by his side and together we will ride.

Ally thought the world had forgotten about her. At fourteen she vanished. Everyone thought she had died. However Ally is very much alive in her own living hell not created by her. She never knew how to live until she met Deuce. Now rescued and healed, Ally has found love in the face of an outlaw. She is with Deuce till the end, ride until they die. She is his Bonnie and he is her Clyde. A love as strong as theirs will never die.

I finished this book hours ago and I am still all over the place. You have Drifted into chaos, then you were a Wanderer though it and now your going to Roam in so much chaos you will never see parts of it coming. To say I loved this book is a understatement. I make it no secret that I love Janine Infante Bosco and her books. She has written some of the most amazing books I have read to date. And I read a lot. She’s my favorite. Roamer however is not just a book you read it is a book you experience. I knew this book would be one that would tear at my soul. I could just tell in the previous books that Deuce was either a man who would have you cracking up laughing or was so intense he would take your breathe away. If you have read the other books you know that Cobra has a sister who was kidnapped at fourteen and he has spent his entire life looking for his sister Alexandria or Ally as she is known in the world she has been living in. Once again all the Satan’s Knights are together and still in some cases trying to get whole. However the enemies never wait and it’s not long before Deuce finds himself volunteering to go undercover into another club in the search for some very valuable information. However there is a girl in Albany with haunted eyes and Deuce is instantly drawn to her. He needs to save her. Fast forward because I’m not going to tell you what happens but Deuce is assigned to take care of Ally. Thus begins a journey of healing and falling in love. Ally has got to be one of the strongest female characters ever written. I fell so in love with her and many was the time I just wanted to wrap her in my arms myself and tell her everything was going to be ok. Deuce is just a alpha and charming as ever and they are perfect for each other. His Bonnie to her Clyde.

For me this was a beautiful love story of faith, healing, family and following your heart. Who is to say what is wrong and what is right but fate stepped in and handed Ally to Decue and they make magic together. Decue will charm the pants off you just like he does Ally and he will break your heart right along with Ally more times than I can count. I cried in the oddest places and found beauty in the chaos. They all are property of Parrish but there is just no way your going to leave this book not being property of Parrish yourself. If these people were real there is no doubt in my mind that I could break bread with them and love them just as deeply as I love any of my friends. Janine Infante Bosco has tackled a dark and gritty world and subject matter and in my heart I kept thinking about the people these things really happen to. Just go grab this book and dive in. Your so not going to regret it and when the going gets tough, and trust me it will, have faith in Janine Infante Bosco. Never doubt her writing skills or where she is going to take you. I have yet to leave one of her books without a piece of my heart belonging to that book. I look so forward to Linc’s story. I can not wait to take the journey with him.

Thank you Janine Infante Bosco for writing this story. For pouring your heart and soul into these pages. I as a reader could feel how much attention to Ally and Deuce you paid and that they mean something to you. Thank you for sharing your stories with me. I am truly honored and humbled to get to be one of the ones who review your book. Hallelujah!!!!!

EXCERPT – “THE FIRST KISS”

Admitting I haven’t tried Sushi makes me realize there are plenty of things I missed out on experiencing. That’s not saying I would have necessarily wanted to try different things or even liked them once I had, but I never got the chance to make those choices or decisions.

Aside from different foods, I missed out on a bunch of firsts too.

“Hey, are you okay?” he asks, tilting his head to the side as he stares at me. “If you don’t want Sushi we get something else…”

I shake my head.

“It’s not that.”

“Then what is it?”

“I just realized I’m twenty-six years old and not only are there so many things I probably haven’t tried but there are things I never got the chance to experience. Things I pushed out of my head because I told myself there was no point in dwelling on it. Now that I’m free, it feels wrong, if that makes any sense. I mean I know I lost twelve years and everyone keeps saying I’ve got a second chance to make a life for myself, but all those things I missed…I can’t get that back. I can’t replace all the miserable moments with what should’ve been. I guess what I’m trying to say is…I can’t trade my painful firsts for the firsts I dreamed I’d have.”

“Says who?”

My brows knit in confusion and I blink as he turns fully, propping his leg on my bed.

“Name one first you wish you could change.”

“Why? You can’t change them.”

“Maybe not all of them,” he says with a shrug. “But if we can manage to change a few that should count for something.”

Biting down on my lip, I think about his suggestion.

“My first kiss is something I wish I could change,” I say honestly, lifting my head to meet his expressionless face. “Papa,” I mutter, cringing as I say the name. “That’s what he made me call him,” I explain, watching Deuce’s jaw go rigid.

“Rush?”

I shake my head.

“Yankovich,” he growls.

For as long as he kept me, I never knew his real name. Hearing it now sends chills down my spine as I recall the first time I was kissed and how Yankovich’s lips felt against mine.

“It was rough and not in a good way,” I confess. “It wasn’t done in a way to make me feel desired but in a way where I was scared of what would happen if I didn’t oblige. So, I kissed him back and hated myself afterward.”

Muttering a curse, Deuce runs his fingers roughly through his hair before turning back to me.

“Close your eyes,” he directs.

“What for?”

“I won’t hurt you,” he promises, evading my question. A foreign feeling erupts inside of me, one I can’t quite place and I find myself closing my eyes, not because he ordered me to but because I trust he won’t hurt me.

Seconds tick by before I hear Deuce’s exasperated breath. Then I feel the mattress dip and as I continue to keep my eyes closed I subconsciously lean forward. His hands lift to my cheeks and the next breath he releases brushes gently over my lips.

Then it happens.

Deuce lays his mouth over mine.

For a moment neither of us move as our lips stay locked on one another. Slowly, he then moves his mouth, taking my lower lip between his and giving it a gentle tug. Sucking softly, he parts my lips and a small gasp spills from my mouth into his.

My heart pounds against my chest as he applies more pressure, making our kiss rougher in all the right ways. I’m not scared or trying to drift away. I’m right there with him, flying high on sensation and adrenaline. His tongue touches my lips, prying them open. Following his lead, I part my lips. He pushes his tongue into my waiting mouth and glides it over mine, tasting me—teaching me that some firsts can be rewritten.

Pulling back slightly he pecks my lips once more and I open my eyes. Keeping his eyes fixed to mine, he licks his lips and drops his hands from my face.

“There you go,” he rasps, as if what just happened didn’t shake the ground beneath us. Unsure what to say, I lift my fingers to my lips and watch as he leans his elbows on his knees. Silently, he stares into space before he slowly turns to me. His eyes immediately dart toward my mouth but quickly lift to my eyes and I wonder if he liked it as much as I did.

“You still got those matches I gave you?” he asks suddenly.

Biting my lip, I stare at him for a moment then lift my hips and reach into my pocket. Pulling out the book of matches my cheeks flush and I turn my palm over to display them. His lips quirk slightly as he slaps his hands against his thighs and rises to his feet.

“Let’s go,” he says, reaching for the hoodie I draped across the back of a chair. “Is this all you took from Reina?” he asks, tossing it onto the bed and crossing his arms as he leans against the wall.

I didn’t know I wasn’t going back there,” I reply, taking the hoodie from the bed. “Wait, where are we going?”

“To get food.”

“Raw food?” I question, slipping my arms through the hoodie before getting up from the bed. “No way.”

“Won’t know if you like it unless you try it,” he retorts, raising an eyebrow “Gotta strike the match, girl,” he adds, tipping his chin toward the book of matches I’m still holding.

“Are you daring me?”

“Maybe,” he says with a shrug. “You accepting?”

Licking my lips, I shove the matches back into my pocket and take a deep breath. If trying Sushi is anything like my new first kiss, then joining the land of the living might not be so bad. It might be scary but it’s a leap I’ve got to take.

“Under one condition,” I say, stepping closer to him. Continuing to lean against the wall, he raises an eyebrow as amusement flickers in his eye.

“You have to get me ice cream too.”

“You like ice cream?”

“We’re going to find out,” I tell him as I brush past him and walk into his room.

Grabbing the keys off the table, he follows me toward the door and reaches around me to open it.

“With manners like that it’s a wonder your room is a mess,” I tease as I walk outside.

“My room isn’t a mess…it’s lived in,” he argues, slamming the door shut behind him.

“I don’t have to wonder if you wear boxers or briefs,” I call over my shoulder as we head toward Wolf’s truck. “However, I’m not going to lie, I’m a little disappointed.”

“Yeah, why’s that?”

Pulling open the door, I climb inside and turn to him.

“I took you for a commando type of guy,” I tell him before shutting the door. Standing in front of the car, he braces one hand on the hood and peers at me through the windshield with a dumbfound expression on his face.

Something amazing happens then.

Something genuine and natural.

Something so unfamiliar to me but common to others.

I smile.

Then he smiles too and I decide Deuce has a great smile, one that if you stare at it long enough it can become an addiction. Isn’t that funny? I never knew a person could crave something so simple like someone else’s smile. I wonder if too much of someone’s smile can be bad for another person. I’d like to think not but what do I know—I’m the girl who never thought she’d smile again.

“Looks good on you,” he comments as he slides into the truck.

“What does?”

“A smile.”

“Yours isn’t so bad either,” I point out, realizing I’m still smiling. His lips quirk again as he pulls out of the lot and I find myself staring at him while he drives. The first time I saw Deuce, I didn’t think much about him. I don’t know if it was the drugs or something else, but at the time he was just another person. When you’ve spent most of your life surrounded by animals, you don’t take notice of people. They all look the same. They all act the same. You’ll expect them to hurt you and take from you. You give up hope that there are still people worth knowing. You give up on the good folks and lump everyone into one category.

In the days since I was rescued I’ve been noticing things. I’ve been noticing people, and right now I’m noticing Deuce. I’m noticing there is a twang hidden underneath that raspy voice and every now and then it becomes more prominent.

“Where are you from?”

He looks at me out of the corner of his eye.

“Caught that, huh?”

“Were you trying to hide it because you’re not very good at it,” I reply.

“Texas.”

Not expecting that response, my eyes widen at the admission but I quickly recover.

“Is it true everything is bigger in Texas?”

Another quirk of the lips.

Yeah, I was addicted.

“I’m not touching that one,” he quips.

Realizing the innuendo, I slap his arm and attempt to call him a jerk but I get distracted by the size of it.

Things are huge in Texas.
