BXTCHES Gotta Warn: This warning is gonna be a bit lengthy. So, if you were to search for this series on Amazon and decide to read the blurb, you will read the following: ** This book is intended for readers 18 years or older due to bad language, violence, and explicit sex scenes. Stitch is a standalone romance, but you may also be interested in reading Maverick: Satan’s Fury MC. My personal feeling (as you may already know) is that for the most part, series should usually be read in the order in which they were written. Now, I know that there are some series that can certainly be read in which ever way the reader chooses, however, I don’t think MC series should just be read willy nilly. I think when you get ready to start a new MC series, you should always start with the first book in that series, regardless if the blurb says “can be read as a standalone”, just because it “can” be, doesn’t mean it “should” be. And I will use Stitch as an example. In Maverick (book #1), the MC storyline in that book involved our leading lady Henley. Henley was a witness to the murder of a Satan’s Fury member, not only was she a witness, but the two guys who pulled the trigger witnessed her, so you can imagine where that story heads. That particular storyline carries over into Stitch. So, if you haven’t read Maverick, that storyline will be a little blurry. The other reason I have for definitely reading MC series in order is the characters. Relationships between the reader and especially the members of the MC are developed in each book, for example, in Maverick, we meet Cotton (the President) and Cassidy (Henley’s sister/bff), and even though we don’t get their story yet, the curtain starts to get pulled back a bit, so a little groundwork starts to get poured, the carrot begins to get dangled. Their story doesn’t come until the next book, but within the pages of Stitch, the anticipation starts to build. There is my warning, BXTCHES, now let’s get to Stitch and Wren.
In Stitch, we will get the POV’s of both Stitch and Wren.
Since Stitch starts with Stitch, let’s do the same. We learn immediately upon turning the first page, that Stitch (Griffin) had a rough (and that’s putting it lightly) upbringing. After losing their parents, Griffin and his baby sister, Emerson, are sent to live with their paternal grandparents. Even though Griffin was given love from his grandmother, his grandfather was a monster. Years and years of beatings forced him to get the fuck out at just the age of 15. Life on the street wasn’t much easier for him and when he became able, he joined the military. After leaving the military, there really was only place for him to go. . .the Satan’s Fury MC.
Wren is a single mom to Wyatt. She was once married to Michael, who she believed was the love of her life, that is until he decided to start knocking her around, hell, who am I kidding. . .he was beating the fuck out of her. And since it wasn’t only her life she needed to look out for anymore, Wren recognized that she needed to get away from the father of her child. Even though she and Wyatt have a nice life going with just the two of them, there are still moments of panic when Wyatt has to go to his dad’s for visitation, albeit supervised, but visitation nonetheless. Their life takes a hard right turn one night when Wyatt runs away from his father’s house and right into a hard core biker. Well, not really that dramatic, he actually runs to the “safe place” that his mother already laid out for him.
Stitch was just looking for a nice hot meal when he comes across a very terrified Wyatt. After noticing the developing bruises on his arms, things hit a little too close to home, so after a little persuasion, he is able to convince Wyatt in for a bite to eat. Facing a mom’s worse nightmare, Wren is relieved when she shows up at the diner and finds Wyatt.
After mom and son were able to be reunited, there is just something about Wren that awakens something in Stitch. Knowing that Wren and her son are potentially at risk, thanks to the ex-husband, Stitch almost makes it his mission to always ensure that she and Wyatt are safe. And that’s where things start to take off.

It becomes somewhat difficult for Stitch to really reconcile who is in his core and what it is he can offer Wren. In his eyes, it’s light vs. dark and good vs. evil, where it’s really hard for her to see him as anything but good.
Like I said in my warning, the drama and aftermath from the murder that Henley witnessed in Maverick, carries over in Stitch. Add that to an abusive ex-husband and you’ve got plenty of drama to keep you captivated from the very first chapter to the very last page.
Just like in Maverick, we continue our “relationship building” with the rest of the MC in Stitch. Most importantly (I believe) is the relationship, or lack thereof, between Cotton and Cassie. There is some serious tension floating around those two and it’s quite obvious there is history there as well. But, Cotton is book #3 in this series, so we won’t be in suspense for too much longer. Wren’s son, Wyatt, is very well written and a character that everyone will fall in love with. One of the many things that the author does very well here is creating characters that the world may see as “disabled”, but the world that is created for them is one of equality and normalcy. We met Dusty in Maverick, he is the son of the murdered club member and he also has Down’s Syndrome. Wyatt is a brilliant, funny, and lovable boy with Asperger’s. They also form a friendship with one another and with the reader as well. So, now we are two books in and the ensemble is really coming together.
I’m not one to usually judge fuckability by a book cover, but c’mon, look at that artwork. And I gotta tell you, if the image on the cover is what we are to use to stimulate the imagination. . .it works. Wren and Stitch jump right over the sexual tension and right into the good stuff. It’s hot. . .it’s toe curling. . .it’s pretty damn satisfying.
It’s getting good BXTCHES, my hunch. . .as we move further in, the better it’s gonna get.
