Thank you NetGalley for the digital eARC! I got 3 pages in and went to Amazon and bought the whole series! I read them all in a week. I now feel empty. Lol. This book surprised me in general with not only the plot but twists and turns. It ended on a good note and i will miss the entire club!!

4 1/2 STARS!

Captivating danger! Jessica Ames is heating things up with book seven in her always action packed Untamed Sons MC series and I loved every minute of Bailey and Zeke! The plot is thick with danger, the characters are intriguing and the overall supporting cast makes for a solid connection between the MC and this crime family.

Bailey is Nox's sister and easy to like. She's a solid part of the MC, but feels like she lives on the outskirts looking in. She stays strong throughout the danger she is put through, but resisting Zeke is harder than she imagined.

Zeke is not a good guy, but he's a solid man to have at your back when danger comes knocking. He doesn't intend to fall for Bailey, but she's pretty irresistible under the circumstances.

I highly recommend this book as well as the entire series to anyone who enjoys an MC who isn't afraid to take down whoever they need to when it comes to keeping their family safe.

This is the first book I’ve read from this author despite having several on my to-read list.

It ticks a lot of boxes for me since I love romance, biker and mafia books.

Zeke was fabulous and Bailey was a delight. A great strong female character. I enjoyed the story and loved these two together.

So why not 5*?

Firstly I very rarely give 5* that’s a rating reserved for the few books that come around several times a year if you’re lucky.
Plus…
There was a lot of telling, too much for me and it spoilt the flow. We were told repeatedly how cold Zeke was, how ruthless. I just…once is enough, twice is acceptable but more than that is just annoying. But that said it doesn’t seem to have bothered anyone else so chalk it up to me being fussy.

I voluntarily read a review copy kindly provided by NetGalley

This is a good beach read but lacked a depth that would make it a 5 star review. There was good character development to understand the characters and where they came from, but fell a little flat in showing a deep connected chemistry. I still enjoyed the storyline and looked forward to reading it. If you're looking for a fun easy beach read, you'll enjoy this.

Get ready for a wild ride! If you’ve read the series up to now, you’ve met Zeke. You probably wanted a story for him, like I did. And you likely know Bailey and want happiness for her, again, like I did. Do you know what you’re in for here? Danger, wars, alliances made then broken then repaired again, off the charts chemistry that some are afraid to trust as real, and an oh-so-satisfying end to so many problems.

Bailey is in desperate need of a savior right about now, and Zeke is the man tasked with the job. Until he sees her picture, and then sees her in person, and realizes it’s not a job. It’s an honor. He just has to hope that he doesn’t burn all of London down to keep her. And heck, if he has to, so be it.

As for Bailey, she’s bent and dinged up, but she’s not broken. And once she realizes that her rescuer isn’t handing her over to the Sons, she has a choice to make. Does she give in to the attraction, or does she fight? Or maybe both? Yeah, that’s likely the best bet. Because she’s got spark and sass, while Zeke has a determination to protect her in any way possible. If they fall for each other along the way, it’s even sweeter.

I absolutely loved this read. It’s got what you’ve come to expect from this series and then some. We have new faces waiting to tell their stories, old faces wanting peace and family, and two people who can’t envision a solitary life now that they’ve seen what being together can be. This was the perfect story for Bailey and the perfect way to get to really know Zeke. Now I can’t wait for what comes next!

What a amazing book to finish a fantastic series, as well as lead into the new one.
As much as I'm sad to see this series end since it is the reason I found this talented author, I couldn't think of a more perfect book. Bailey is a complete inspiration. What she went through both past and present was certainly not for the weak willed and she handled it all with such grace and strength.
Excited to see what trouble the "mobsters" (as Mollie innocently called them) cause next. And although this was the end to the Untamed Sons series, I hope it's not the last we see of them.
Highly recommend as usual.

This dark romance can be read as a standalone without the reader feeling lost. The way Bailey is drugged and abducted from a bar will strike fear in most female readers. It was so easily done. The Farleys mistake her for another MC brother's wife. She is abused and put up for auction. Fortunately, the MC gets the assistance from Zeke and his mafia family. Zeke is kind of an anti-hero. He has a very dark side but proves to be the strong protagonist who respects Bailey's strength and allows her to heal with his support. I enjoyed this book and will look for the rest in the series.

4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Bailey by Jessica Ames is the last book in the Untamed Sons MC that tells the story of Bailey and Zeke. Let me start my review by saying that this book turns out better than I have expected. I felt that the entire storyline is pretty engaging that I can't help but finishing it within one day.

Basically, this story starts off where Bailey got taken by the enemies of the Sons. Therefore, they decided to ask for help from the Frasers by offering a deal that can help them in rescuing Bailey before she got sold. However, Zeke decided to breach the deal by keeping her in his apartment right after rescuing her. I won't be explaining more to avoid spoilers but he has reasons why he did that.

Anyways, talking about the characters, I actually really liked Zeke and Bailey, In fact, I pretty much adore these two. I felt like these two are such great characters with interesting personalities. Zeke totally won me over. I loved reading his POVs because I got to see his real colours. Whereas for Bailey, she's such a strong character and I feel bad with the trauma that she has to endure. Also, I loved the connection that these two shared. Their moments together proved how much they need one another. Literally *chef kiss*

Overall, it was an enjoyable read and I think Jessica did a great job in delivering the final book in the series. The only reason why I didn't give this book five stars is because I was kinda hoping for the story to be longer. I felt like it lacks development? Even so, it didn't ruin my enjoyment or anything.

On a side note, it's kinda sad that this series has finally finished. I'm definitely gonna miss the characters. Even so, I can't wait to read the next upcoming series that Jessica will bring to us.

Bailey is part of the Untamed Sons MC, as a daughter, sister, and widow of a member, and as such always protected. Going out one night with work associates the last thing she ever expected to happen was to be taken, but caught up in a war not of her making she realizes she may not come back to her previous life. Zeke is part of the Fraser clan, a ruthless and dangerous man in his own right. When the Untamed Sons come to his family for help in getting Bailey back he assumes it will be just like any other job until he sees a picture of Bailey and realizes he’s willing to go against everyone to keep her for his own. This is a dark book, with some touchy subjects that might be too much for some readers, but the perfect thing about Bailey and Zeke is that they’re not perfect and no where near the “normal” couple one would expect, even for a MC/mob story.
This book is part of a series, but as someone who has not read any of the previous ones before reading this I do not feel lost in any way (although now I do want to read the others). My only wish is that their relationship expanded more before the end, otherwise this was an intense, dark romance. 4.5 stars. I received an arc copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher for my honest review.

4*
Bailey has been part of the mc club all her life, born into it married into it, widowed with it. A rare night out turns out to be more than she expected. Trying to stay strong and ready to fight when she gets the chance is all that's kept her going.
Zeke is used to fighting, been born into the mafia its all he knows until the mc ask for their help to get Bailey from the Farleys. Working together they both want to wipe the Farleys  out.
Another great addition to the series.
