Sinning never felt so good…
A fortuitous encounter.
A meeting that should never have happened.
Many years ago, two children from completely different worlds forged a connection, a fateful connection, an unbreakable bond that would change their lives forever…
Salome knows only one way to live—under Prophet David’s rule. In the commune she calls home, Salome knows nothing of life beyond her strict faith, nor of life beyond the Fence—the fence that cages her, keeps her trapped in an endless cycle of misery. A life she believes she is destined to always lead, until a horrific event sets her free.
Fleeing the absolute safety of all she has ever known, Salome is thrust into the world outside, a frightening world full of uncertainty and sin; into the protective arms of a person she believed she would never see again.
River ‘Styx’ Nash knows one thing for certain in life—he was born and bred to wear a cut. Raised in a turbulent world of sex, Harleys, and drugs, Styx, unexpectedly has the heavy burden of the Hades Hangmen gavel thrust upon him, and all at the ripe old age of twenty-six—much to his rivals’ delight.
Haunted by a crushing speech impediment, Styx quickly learns to deal with his haters. Powerful fists, an iron jaw and the skillful use of his treasured German blade has earned him a fearsome reputation as a man not to be messed with in the shadowy world of outlaw MC’s. A reputation that successfully keeps most people far, far away.
Styx has one rule in life—never let anyone get too close. It’s a plan that he has stuck to for years, that is, until a young woman is found injured on his lot… a woman who looks uncannily familiar, a woman who clearly does not belong in his world, yet a woman he feels reluctant to let go…
Dark Contemporary Romance/New Adult Novel.
Contains sexual situations, violence, sensitive and taboo subjects, offensive language and mature topics. Recommended for age 18 years and up*
BOOK REVIEW by Michelle:
Styx/River
At the age of twenty-six, I found myself Prez of the most notoriously lethal MC in all the States.
Tillie wrote a fabulous prologue for this book. Once you start reading...you simply have to sit there and read as much as you can in one sitting.
I was addicted to this book. Sure I worked some things out, sure there was a few clichés thrown in, but dayum, Styx was phwoaaarrr. I enjoyed his character’s struggles immensely.
I’m steering away from the story and I’m going to tell you about some of the characters.
VP Ky, the pretty one among them, the mouthpiece for Styx when he needed it, is loyal and loves bedding women (plural).
Flame, wow...gotta say, the dude frightens me. Tillie shows us a very, very...erm...damaged man. The things he does. She wrote him very well. I could really see him doing those things to himself and his character really leaped off the page. Souls Unfractured, book 3, I am so eager to read. I want to see what Tillie does with Flame.
Rider was a character that messed with my head a bit. I am intrigued to know much, much more about him, for many reasons.
The cult leaders made me feel so angry as a woman. The reasons for the crimes against Mae and her sisters were...I can’t even find the words. They are sick and so twisted and brainwashed and evil. Tillie got my blood boiling.
The lot of them needed their dicks cut off.
They are such cruel and vile men to do what they did to young girls, and those horrendous punishments.
Mae was so brave to take those steps and run.

A very addictive read, I highly recommend.
