3.75 STARSI enjoyed this (new to me) author’s style of storytelling. It’s told in third person POV which has become less common. Sometimes it works for me and sometimes it makes me feel a disconnect. ➖It worked for me in this book.I liked the raw and gritty nature of the story and characters.The characters are rough, tough and sexy. It depicts biker life in a way I think is appropriate. Hard living and they keep their softer emotions in for the most part. I think it’s why third person POV worked...

I really enjoyed the concept of this book and different aspects of the story. I think Phoenix made for an interesting main character. She was pulled in many different directions and in order to make parts of her life simpler, and sometimes safer, for her and others around her she had to try to hide her true self. I like that we learned a decent amount about her history in the beginning of the book so we understood some of her thoughts, actions and motivations. I think this was important because

First thing, Phoenix was a very I interesting character. Mute, androgynous and tough as nails. She moves bs k in with her uncle because she wants a family. He is all she has left. They have not been together since he dropped of at her first private school. She hides behind Nix - the young mechanic for safety. She finds information that can cause danger to everyone. Getting close to Ash, the Road Devils enforcer may increase the danger. Ash is wary of Phoenix. He knows Something isn’t right. Once...

Wild RideOmg I couldn't put this story down. Phoenix was heading back home after graduating college. Before a reunion with her uncle she was meeting up with her girls Viper & Jack before their lives changed. After her girl Jack overheard that Tango wanted to start a war with a rival gang & would take out anyone who stood in his way just like he took out bruits. Phoenix needed to find out what really happened to her Dad. This where things got tricky, she had to get a member indebted to her alter

Phoenix/Nix Coming HomePhoenix is not your conventional woman. After graduating college she’s coming home to the only family she has left which is her uncle Declan. After a traumatic experience when she was younger, she cannot speak but that doesn’t stop her from living her life full volume. Now she wants to reconnect with Declan and find out if her father’s accident was truly an accident or was someone behind it.This book was full of suspense, secrets and plenty of steam. The MC was one of the

3.5 Stars!Being new to Ms.Cantrell's work i've been looking forward to picking up her books! The synopsis for this one caught my eye and i knew i had to read it first. I picked it up and got into The Road Devil's MC world. I really liked this story!Phoenix's journey got my attention. I really liked how i wasn't sure what all to expect in this story and how that pulled me into it. I enjoyed the fact that this was a different kind of read and how i felt many things throughout. I just struggled a b...

This was a new to me author.Unfortunately, for me this book failed to hit the mark in more than one aspect, hence the rating as much as I hated giving it.I was excited going into this book, but as soon as I started reading I should of trusted my gut, but was hoping it was a one time thing before the plot took off. To me looking at the blurb I didn't expect a lot of this book. The plot had huge potential but it got lost more often than not because of the heat that was going on in so many directio...

Really good start, Absolutely need Book two. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ReviewRoux Cantrell is a new to me author. Was definitely different than what I usually read. There was lots of suspense and action with MC club members secretly stirring up trouble trying to start a war. And our main character trying to keep her identity hidden from everyone.This is Charlie’s (aka Phoenix) story and how she returned home to her uncle’s place and was determined to find out what really happened to her dad. Masquerading as a mal...

3.5*Roux Cantrell is a new author to me with a completely different writing style than I have read before. The first book in The Road Devils MC is seriously hot, FF and MFM scenes, so if that is your thing you will adore Phoenix's story, and just like a Phoenix Rising out of the ashes, so, is Phoenix and as secrets are revealed she learns more about herself, her family and the past, if Roux Contrell was trying to portray Phoenix as a dominant male type figure then from my point of view it worked...

What an intense and emotional story. Phoenix (Charlie Picard) lost her father in a motorcycle accident in which she was in too. She suffered trauma to her throat that left her a mute. She was raised by her uncle Declan. She’s been I. Boarding schools and now finished with college she comes home to try and have a relationship with Declan. He has a garage that he works on motorcycles and gives her a job and lets her stay in the apartment above the garage. She’s got two best friends Viper and Jack

Wow what a great read. I loved this story about Phoenix and Ash. Phoenix was going to see her Uncle who did work on the bikes of the local MC. She met Ash on the road, and he mistook her for a guy, so she had to keep the disguise to herself. Phoenix and her friends were there to help her find out what happened to her and her dad years ago. Someone was responsible for his death, but she did not know who was to blame. She had every intention of finding out who.This story had some twists and turns....

This is a new to me author and I was pleasantly surprised. I'm not too big on MC books but this one was enjoyable. The characters are fully fleshed out and appropriate in the biker world; which means gritty, sexy, and angsty. Phoenix is a unique FMC, I had never read a book with a mute h. She's an intriguing character with a strong backstory. I loved her.The writing style is great but at times I thought there was too much description for stuff that didn't add anything to the plot. At times, I al...

Whooo whee. This is one of the sexy books I have read in awhile. I love the variety of voices and characters in this book. If you are looking for traditional romance then walk away. This is not it. It is edgy dark and very naughty. Wink. Why the four stars. It ends abruptly, everything is not resolved either, and I want more. Hopefully that happens. I wished the book narrative would had set the it up better as a cliffhanger and let me know to expect more from this story. I should have guessed wh...

Damn what a ride!!Roux Cantrell is a new author to me and has a a completely different writing style (3rd person) than what I am use to reading. However, after only a few pages I found my groove and quite enjoyed getting multiple POV during one scene. Now for the characters and plot.I mean Holy Moly!!! The Road Devils MC is seriously hot!!! This particular story has FF and MFM scenes so if that is your jam Phoenix's story is definitely for you.As the title 'Phoenix Rising' suggests this book to

Off-the-chart steam. Bada** heroine. Sexy hero. A storyline like nothing you've ever read. Roux takes us on a journey of survival and self discovery in this amazing introduction into the Road Devil's MC. She opens up the MC world and makes us feel right at home there. I fell in love with every single character in this book. The plot takes you on the ride of a lifetime and the ending leaves you begging for more. And the sex... Lort have mercy, the sex. But it's more than that. Phoenix Rising is t...

Roux Cantrell is a new to me author, and I'm super excited to keep reading her work after experiencing the originality that she displayed with Phoenix Rising. Phoenix lost her father in a motorcycle accident that left her with no voice. She can communicate fine with her friends, but it does have some complications when it comes to other people. She's recently come home to try & develop a relationship with her uncle, but things jump off pretty quickly. This story has a lot of twists coming in hot...

“Like the mythical Phoenix she had risen from the flames of chaos, and no one would clip her wings this time.”A new to me author I was eager to jump straight in and fall into the rough and ready world of bikers. This story does not disappoint- it has all the elements of a great MC story with a couple of twists thrown in. The leading lady is mistaken for a boy and goes with it to get what she wants, she’s also mute. Seeing everyone communicate with her and picking up on her non verbal cues made m...

This is the first in a new series and what a fantastic beginning this story is! Charlie / Phoenix is in a motorcycle adducent with her dad where he was killed and she was left with severs through injuries which have left her mute, and she was brought up by her uncle. When Phoenix finishes with college, she returns to the MC life and works for her uncle in his repair shop and lives in an apartment above. When Phoenix is mistaken for a male, she gets the chance to get to know the sergeant-at-arms

Wow what a sexy read! This author is new to me, but I enjoyed this book. I usually don't like 3rd person POV but the way she wrote is was pretty cool. The pacing was a little stop and go for me in this book, but I thought the plot was overall unique. There were hot and spicy scenes all throughout, (FF, MF, MFM), and some surprises that really added to the intrigue of this plot. This story definitely left me wanting more. More from Nix and Ash, Jack and Viper, and to be honest I want more from al...
