F*ck Club: Riley
by Shiloh Walker
Blurb:
"The first rule of F*ck Club...we don’t talk about it. We just do the job and get paid."
And Riley Steele did his job very well. He’ll be the first to admit that his current life isn’t the one he’d foreseen. It’s not even one he really wants, but after his parents died and he was left to care for two siblings and a mountain of debt, he was willing to do almost anything.
Now, after almost ten years of being paid to pleasure, he’s almost numb to it…and to women.
That all changes with one phone call. Brianna Sharpe, the girl he’d loved as a boy, is leaving an abusive lover and needs someplace to hide.
Opening his home to Bree is easy. Protecting his heart is a different story. She’d completely shattered it once already. But Bree has changed and Riley wants to think there might be a chance. Only...what will she do when she discovers his secrets?

My review:
3.75 stars
F*ck Club: Riley by Shiloh Walker is an erotic contemporary
romance that introduces Riley Steele, who found an unconventional way to
support his siblings after their parents were killed. He’s never forgotten his
love for his childhood sweetheart, Briana Sharp, even after they grew apart and
she made unwise choices. Unfortunately, danger is swirling around them and they
may never get a chance to find out if they can regain what they once had.
Filled with the author’s trademark tortured souls, this
romantic suspense story is an entertaining exploration of the twists and turns
life can take when evil intersects with it. I love the way both the heat and
the danger gradually intensify, even as more is revealed about some of the
secondary characters. I wasn’t crazy about all of the solutions because I think
things went too quickly (although, granted some things were way overdue) and I
wasn’t convinced about the punishments conferred, so I have to wonder whether
things are being left dangling for future stories in the series. Despite this
(and despite my dislike of the title of the series), this was a delicious
introduction to a new series peopled by sexy and intriguing men and the women
they love.
