Synopsis:

As the enforcer of the Torpedo Ink motorcycle club, Reaper lives for riding and fighting. He’s a stone-cold killer who turns his wrath on those who deserve it. Feelings are a weakness he can’t afford–until a gorgeous bartender gets under his skin…

Near Sea Haven, the small town of Caspar has given Anya Rafferty a new lease on life. And she’s desperate to hold on to her job at the biker bar, even if the scariest member of the club seems to have it out for her. But Reaper’s imposing presence and smoldering looks just ratchet up the heat.

Anya’s touch is everything Reaper doesn’t want–and it brands him to the bone. But when her secrets catch up to her, Reaper will have to choose between Anya and his club–his heart and his soul.

 

Review:

Amazing. Exciting. Intense. Wow! What a book! Another series by Christine Feehan to add to my collection.

I do have to warn readers that (fans of Feehan already know) will start this series that although you can read it as a separate series, Torpedo Ink is in a way linked to Sea Haven, so some of the characters or events mentioned might sound a little confusing, other than that Judgement Road is a great book.

Judgment Road’s plot is intense, another waring if the mentions of violence and graphic elements aren’t for some readers. Reaper and Anya’s relationship starts off rocky, but with time they manage to understand and trust each other. Reaper has a violent past that he is trying to leave behind, while Anya is trying to build a new and better future for herself. Reaper’s loyalty is first to Torpedo Ink and its members, it has always been that way and now that he has found Anya, Reaper is having a difficult time finding how to set them both as priority in his life. Anya, on the other hand is ready to be that someone’s special person and number one, but being with Reaper shows to be more difficult than she imagined.

“Fine. I’ll go, but if they try anything with their questions, I swear, I’m getting a gun and shooting you.”

“Think there should only be one bloodthirsty person in our family, babe, and you’re not mean enough.”

There is a particular event in the story where Torpedo Ink interrogates Anya, but their way of interrogating isn’t your typical way. Anya is tortured mentally, and Reaper can’t do much to help her. This scene was one of my favorites, it showed some of Torpedo’s special abilities, how strong Anya can be along with more of her personality, but mostly it was a very emotional and intense moment among the characters. But there are a lot of romantic moments between Reaper and Anya that make up for the bad ones.

We also get a few scenes with Viktor and Blythe, Torpedo Ink’s leader and his wife. There are several glimpses of the rest of Torpedo Ink’s members as well, such as more of their personalities and what they have been up to since their introduction in Bound Together. I’m really curious to read more about the only two female members of Torpedo Ink, Alena and Lana, it would be interesting to know more about their background stories. Another interesting character would be Reaper’s brother Savage, in this book we got to see what Reaper is like, so getting to know Savage will be quite intriguing.

Judgment Road is the first book in Christine Feehan’s new series, Torpedo Ink, it has steamy romance, action, funny moments, and amazing characters. If you’re a fan of Feehan, you will love this book, and if you’re new to Feehan’s books I recommend you read Judgment Road, you’ll love it 😉
