Reaper: An Age Gap Romance (Ruthless Kings Las Vegas Chapter Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 5,414 ratings

My best friend is dead, and I’m stuck with a girl who haunts my dreams. His daughter.

She’s off limits. And a man like me can't be with a woman her age anyway. At least, that’s what I tell myself.

Then my
little maniac turned eighteen, and I allowed myself to give in to temptation. I shouldn't have, but now it's too late, and I’ll deal with the consequences. Consequences are accepted, they’re overcome. They’re never feared – even when they’re dangerous.

She's mine now, and I'll never let her go.

But one of the biggest sinners in Vegas thinks he can just take her. He should know that it’s my job to protect her. Mine. And if he’s forgotten, I’ll remind him, and I’ll make sure he never forgets again…

I’ll burn this city to the ground if I have to
. I’ll start a war.

I'll reap havoc until my little maniac is back in my arms…

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

K.L. Savage is the pseudonym of two friends addicted to rough love, who decided they were tired of looking for the kind of books they wanted to read. They had an itch that needed to be scratched, and as every girl knows, nothing scratches better than an alpha.

They write about gritty, alpha males, sometimes their dark sides, and the women they love.

If you have the same itch, their alpha males should fix that.

    Reaper by K.L. Savage is one intense story. This story is Reaper's (Jesse) and Sarah's love story. Their love was not an easy road for either. Reaper is the Prez of the Ruthless Kings MC. His responsibility is to the club but when Sarah arrived, everything he thought shifted. She is his everything. Reaper is much older than Sarah so he waits for two years to make his claim. Sarah tries with all her might to change his mind, much to Reaper's chagrin. Sarah's dark history comes back to haunt her and Reaper and causes major problems for the club.

    The story is fast paced and action packed. It is intense and full of tension. K.L. Savage gives us a good introduction to the brothers of the Ruthless Kings. Each is special in his own way. I can't wait to read everyone's individual story. Tongue is an early leader for my heart. He is revealed in Reaper to be such a quirky character and he has such a darkness to him as do the other brothers. The love that the brothers have for and show Sarah is amazing. They all dress up for her proms in some sort of tux just to show her support. I mean come on, can you say adorable?! These guys can be violent when needed but are a family that loves fiercely.

    This story also pulls the mafia in for a big twist. Reaper has kidnapping, explosions, torture, and murder so how can I recommend this book? The answer is simple...characters that will twist themselves into your heart. They are a bunch of Ruthless Kings and they make no apologies for who they are.

    This is for mature readers only (18+ years old) due to subject matter that may be a trigger or offensive to some including adult language, adult intimate scenes and violence.

    This is a MC story and contains the stereotypical storylines one would expect of the genre, which could include fighting, assault, torture, kidnapping, drugs, death, etc.

    I highly recommend that the prequel be read first. It is available at no cost on the author’s Amazon page and helps set the stage for the main characters in this story of Reaper, Sarah, Boomer, Tongue, Tool, Doc, etc.

    There is something about the MC genre stories / series that I just love. Maybe it is the sense of brotherhood, or maybe the willingness to do what is needed to protect those they love, but regardless of the reason, they remain a favorite genre to distract myself from the ugliness of today. This series has gotten off on the right foot and I can see it quickly becoming one I read again as long as the following is addressed.

    I wanted to give this 5 stars, as the storyline / plot, characters and story universe is well developed and intriguing, but the grammatical errors are pervasive. This needs to be professionally edited. It has wrong tenses, incorrect words, inserted words, etc. Some examples include debriefed versus debrided, what versus that.

    These are new authors for me and so I took a chance on the purchase of the prequel and book 1, glad I did! The Kings are a group of crazy wild bikers that you can't help but love. Reaper is the Prez and his best friend and VP, Hawk has been killed, leaving him the custody of Hawk's young son. If you read the prequel you'll discover how this comes about, so, in Book 1, Reaper is dealing with the arrival of Sarah, who happens to be Jenkins half sister! She is hot for Reaper and only sixteen years old. Reaper won't touch her no matter how hard she tries. He has decided that yes, he wants her but is willing to wait until she is eighteen to start anything with her. Jenkins/Boomer seems unsettled and conflicted about whether he wants to take his place with the Kings and patch in. This club has some very interesting members and Tongue and Jenkins to me are the most interesting. Yes, Reaper is super alpha and sexy and his relationship with Sarah is fraught with sexual tension before and after they seal the deal, but Tongue is the knife wielding psycho who I want to read more about. This dude has some serious issues and confides in only Sarah about his life - I have to know what made him so deadly, besides Sarah said that he was hot!! Jenkins/Boomer is so moody and unpredictable, he loves his sister Sarah but the reader doesn't know whether he loves the club. There is a creepy stalker after Sarah and some not really clear, to me, Mafia drama but overall good book. I don't know whether my interest in reading more about Tongue says more about me or the writing skills of K.L. Savage, I'll just wait patiently for his story. It seems Boomer is up next so I'm looking forward to reading about his journey towards what I hope is him taking his legacy place with the club!

    3.5⭐️ it was over half the book waiting for her to turn 18 then the slice started. The story line was just okay. It was a decent quick read. I am curious about the other members HEA but this series will be more of a palate cleanser than a binge. There were also grammar errors. An entire line was repeated in chapter 3. Also using the word teenage to describe Sarah sexually was icky. Overall not bad.

    Great intro to the characters. I love Reaper and Sarah. I have seen reviews talking about how Sarah is only 17 and trying to be with Reaper, And how that's just wrong. But the age of consent in Nevada is 16. So It's not a far off bet especially since the character is almost 18. And the man waits for her birthday. I mean , it could have been written completely different. This is a good first book into a wonderful series. Lots of grit, action and plenty to laugh at. Take the chance and give it a read. Trust me, You will quickly move on to the other books in the series.

    Omg poor Reaper having to look after yet another of hawks spawn yet this one Is more interested in getting into his pants yet the thought has crossed his mind as well yet Sarah is still a minor so Reaper is having a hard time trying to keep her safe and out of his bed so he doesn't end up in 6X6 Box.
    I'm loving the rest of the MC guys they are just hilarious I'm intrigued by Tongue yet Skirt has me cracking up "Jesus, he scares the hairs off me balls I tell ye." best line ever.
    Loved reading this book it was great to read a book that had such a strong connection between a big age gap couple.

    To be honest I wasn't sure if I liked this read but it got better towards the end hence the 4 stars. Up until then the story was mediocre. The main characters are nice at best. Good sense of humor. I'll pick up the next book hoping it will be good throughout. Worth a shot.

    This is the first book I've read by this author , and I have to say it won't be the last. I really enjoyed reading Reaper I love older men and I love reading about a hot Alpha man who is stubborn, brutal and takes no prisoners yet when it comes to the women they love they are a big soft marshmallow and Reaper is all that and more . I love how even though Sahra was young she was tough and had a mind of her own she didn't put up with Reapers crap but yet respected him enough to not push him to far in front of his men. I looking forward to reading more in this series.
