Behavior Problem by James Cox
Best one so far.
Behavior Problem tells the story of Deviant, the beast, as I thought of him while I was reading. With a sister who became lost to him, his temper is pointed at anyone who dares mistreat a woman. That gets him into some hot water with the club, and Outlaw sends him off to one of their contacts to act as a bodyguard for women who have escaped and to teach them how to ride their Hover Bikes. The women want to start their own illegal MC, which they aptly name the Amazons. There Deviant meets Tage, the extremely well dressed, well spoken, man who has helped to free the women. The synopsis of this one is pretty spot on, because it’s about learning that love isn’t weakness.
This one was just as good as the first one. The story definitely ups the ante in terms of the club’s endgame, which is saving the citizens from Wexmen. It also focuses more on the ‘women for breeding’ aspect of the world.
I think my favorite aspect of this installment, however, was Tage. I know I mentioned that in Chaos Unchained I liked goofy Beau, but Tage trumps him. Tage is white collar, prudish, and shy. Which makes for an interesting recipe when pared with the boys of the MC who are anything BUT prudish. I chuckled along with Deviant every time he made the poor guy blush, which was just about all the time.
And, the best part, we got a tiny little happy ending in this one which was great. Unfortunately that happy ending was balanced with the story taking a turn for the worst for Outlaw MC‘s heart, Knox and Liam.
