An unforgettable new series from acclaimed author Katie McGarry about taking risks, opening your heart and ending up in a place you never imagined possible.

 

Seventeen-year-old Emily likes her life the way it is: doting parents, good friends, good school in a safe neighborhood. Sure, she's curious about her biological father—the one who chose life in a motorcycle club, the Reign of Terror, over being a parent—but that doesn't mean she wants to be a part of his world. But when a reluctant visit turns to an extended summer vacation among relatives she never knew she had, one thing becomes clear: nothing is what it seems. Not the club, not her secret-keeping father and not Oz, a guy with suck-me-in blue eyes who can help her understand them both.

 

Oz wants one thing: to join the Reign of Terror. They're the good guys. They protect people. They're…family. And while Emily—the gorgeous and sheltered daughter of the club's most respected member—is in town, he's gonna prove it to her. So when her father asks him to keep her safe from a rival club with a score to settle, Oz knows it's his shot at his dream. What he doesn't count on is that Emily just might turn that dream upside down.

 

No one wants them to be together. But sometimes the right person is the one you least expect, and the road you fear the most is the one that leads you home.

NOWHERE BUT HERE Excerpt:

From Oz's Point of View. Set up: Emily has been separated from her parents and after a long night of worrying, her emotions and exhaustion catch up to her and it causes Oz to have his first fluttering of emotion for Emily.

 

 

WIND BLOWS IN FROM THE NORTH AND A FEW pieces of Emily’s dark hair sweep across her face. One min­ute Emily’s a bright flame, then a gust snuffs out her light. Her body sways like a top at the tail end of a spin and I lunge forward.

 

Emily’s knees give out and her eyes roll back into her head. I catch her inches before she crashes onto the porch. She’s light as I swing her into my arms and her head circles onto my shoulder, reminding me of one of those rag dolls Violet used to play with when we were kids.

 

“Emily!” Eli’s on top of me, attempting to yank her out of my arms. “Open your eyes.”

 

Her eyelids flutter, but remain closed as her hand limply clutches my shirt. Eli rams his arms underneath mine and he makes Emily a rope in a tug-of-war. I should let her go. I should want to let her go, but then Emily goes and screws it up for me. “Oz.”

 

It was a damn whisper, but I heard my name on her lips and so did Eli. His eyes flash to mine and Cyrus’s words repeat in my mind. That girl trusts you. And screw us both for that.

 

“She’s exhausted,” I say. “Hasn’t slept at all tonight.”

 

Eli’s expression hardens as he glares at me. I’ve seen Eli throw a coma-inducing punch for less defiance and I readjust the sleeping girl in my arms. A reminder if he decks me now, he’ll be putting his daughter at risk.

 

Temporarily surrendering, Eli cups Emily’s face in his hands and angles her toward him. “Emily, please open your eyes.”

 

She does. It’s barely a crack and they’re completely glazed.

 

“Everything’s going to be okay,” Eli affirms.

 

“I want my mom and dad,” she mumbles.

 

“You’ll see them tomorrow.” Eli pushes a strand of hair from her cheek. “You’re safe here. I promise.”

 

She rejects Eli by curling into me. Her head fits perfectly in the crook of my neck and I loathe the wave of protective­ness that rumbles through my body. Emily’s fingers tighten their grip near my shoulders and the impulse is to shield her from the guys gawking at this intimate scene. Yeah, this is club business, but Emily never asked for any of this.

REVIEW

Katie McGarry + MC Romance? Christmas has come early!!!

This was a stunning, thrilling read with so many feels that it stole pieces of me heart with each flip of the page, until it owned it completely.

With complex relationships that made this book more than the usual romance, this was a solid read. It had plenty of depth and I shed many tear, some happy, some sad, as Emily battled her emotions over loving or hating a family she was lead to believe wanted nothing to do with her. And, even though Oz gained her trust quickly, there was a definite connection between Emily and Eli, as well as Olivia, and it was only a matter of time before blood called to blood.

With so many secrets and lies shielding her past, my heart went out to Emily. Her life was turned upside down within a blink of an eye, and The Riot may have been a physical threat, but the truth about Emily’s life had the potential to destroy her, heart and soul.

Although this book was filled with emotion and drama, it was also exciting, and I felt blessed to watch Oz and Emily fall for each other. Together, they made a whole, and all the fear, pain and heartache faded whenever they were together.

This book also showed a more human side of these big, bad bikers, and I loved the moments Eli spent with Emily. They were awkward at first, but their relationship grew stronger and stronger as the story developed. Even though Emily continued to look at Jeff as her father, by the end Eli had a firm place in her life.

I loved everything about this book. Another masterpiece by the amazing and talented Katie McGarry.

ABOUT CHASING IMPOSSIBLE

Tough and independent, 17-year-old Abby lets very few people into her inner circle. It’s common knowledge in her Kentucky town that she deals drugs, but not even her closest friends know why. But when a deal goes south and Abby’s suddenly in danger, she finds herself reluctantly forced to lean on daredevil Logan—a boy whose restless spirit matches her own.

Logan has his own reasons for wanting to keep Abby at arms’ length. But he never expected to find in her the one person who might help him face the demons he’s tried so hard to run from.

Together, Abby and Logan will have to make a decision: let their current circumstances weigh them down forever…or fight for the future they both thought was impossible.
