5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2019 Verified Purchase Wow...oh...wow...oh... wow. Way to bring all the books in this series together. If you enjoyed the first 2 books this one will definitely not disappoint. If you haven’t read the first 2. You will after this one. Can’t wait to read Quick and the next series.
5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 11, 2018 Verified Purchase This book is so beautiful - pure beauty in my hands! I am a cover kind of girl.. I read most of my books based on the cover alone - and this cover is just simply amazing -- after reading an advanced ecopy I just knew I wanted this paperback in my bookshelf collection!! The storyline itself is almost an in between of two couples( very easy and enjoyable to follow). The book is an introduction to a new series by bringing in new characters that are connected to the characters of author Angera Allen's current Spin It Series characters. So we see a bit into the current situation of the anticipated 3rd Spin It book and a look into the start of the new series (Quick's book)... and holy cow... is this book packed with chemistry! But it's also filled with relationships - life long friendships and instant friendships with the girls, brotherhood friendships with the guys -- the type of relationships where people have your back no questions asked! The book left me wanting MORE RIGHT NOW!!! Author Angera Allen had quickly became one of my must read authors since her debut in 2017(a very short list of 7 authors for myself-- I read 5 books on average a week) .. because she always leaves me NEEDING more!!
Music ✔ Motorcycle club ✔ Hot Alpha bodyguards ✔ Strong women ✔ Ginger aka Gin, DJGin, Snow, Angel, Princess: a young woman trying to figure out her place with her MC family and following her dreams as a DJ all while trying to move on from her first love. Brant (Hot Alpha Bodyguard): has been messing around with Ginger for over a year. Has fallen in love with her and is trying to convince her to commit despite her issues with abandonment and commitment Micah aka Shy: Alpha male, part of motorcycle club, Ginger first love. He has come back to fight for his "Angel". Who will Ginger pick? Can she still have her MC while prosuing her dreams of music? What will she have to sacrifice for her happiness? Angera, in her 2nd novel, has continued to take a beautiful story, hot sex and danger and make them into a "can't put it down" read. I can see so much potential from this author in spin offs for secondary characters and am so excited to continue seeing each character get their own story
I want more and I want....no NEED it now. The sex in this book are off the charts hot. The men are all cavemen ALPHA. The woman are all sassy and independent. Quick and Firecracker are one hot couple and when we finally get the rest od their story later in the year I am not sure how Angera is gonna be able to top it. We also get a little taste of what Izzy is gonna bring in her book and Gus is gonna have his hands FULL
Angera Allen is back with book 2 in the Spin It series and boy has she gathered a crew of characters that will be keeping us entertained for many books to come. We have the DJ world, which I absolutely love. It's different, fresh and new from what is out there in the book world. And now she has added Ginger, aka Snow's past life of the MC world. And those characters are intriguing me big time! BUT for now, let's stick with the ladies of the Spin It, Inc crew. Book 2 starts off right where book 1 ended (which I highly recommend you read Alexandria before jumping into this one, although I think you could still read this one and be ok). Ginger is in the hospital after being her bada$$ self and the 2 men in her life are there for her. Brant and Shy are the guys you want in your corner and fighting for you. Unfortunately they are fighting against one another for Gin's love. So, who will come out on top? With this story also comes the past. Since Brant is part of Ginger's current life in the DJ world we know a little bit of their story. But Shy/ "Micah" is a Wolfeman through and through and he is a part of Gin/Snow's past life in the MC world (she was brought up in it as her dad is the Prez). Their connection and past is strong, but will it be enough to turn off the obvious connection she has with Brant? The book is big on the past and getting Ginger/Snow healthy again so she can return to work. If she has no music, then who is she? Her family back in the Club is supportive, but they all have been hiding something big from her and that may affect her future in a way no one saw coming. Stay tuned for Music, Mayhem and some steam between all our characters. They are strong willed, hot and ready for their stories. This series is really heating up and I can't wait to keep reading these girls' stories. They are a Girl Gang that I could be down with. Fierce and loyal to one another and ready to take down problems that always seem to follow them. But the guys are their protectors and will stop at nothing to keep their women happy and alive. "She might be your princess, but she is my queen..."
5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 19, 2019 Verified Purchase This book was a little harder for me to read, reading everything Izzy had to go though had me crying! Angera always seems to suck me in though, I have been binge reading this series and cannot wait for more!
This book was so good! You would never guess it was this authors first book. From page 1 until the last page I couldn't put it down. The twists, turns and suspense were so expertly done by the time we hit the end I was shocked at who the bad guy was. I loved that I wasn't able to figure it out and she led us there so perfectly. Now, to talk about the book...rape, this is a really hard topic. It's so emotional to read, to see, whether you've experienced it yourself or know someone who has. While she didn't describe the rape it was dealt with in a way that was very emotional. Alexandria is a young girl who was raped at a young age and became even more sheltered and protected afterwards that she was previously due to her families popularity. I love how we see Alexandria grow and mature from a scared, shy, anxious girl into this strong confident women. Alexandria has 3 suitors throughout the book, Emmett; he's been her geeky friend for 5yrs and now he wants more. Jason; a club promoter she works with, and Maddox the totally alpha male! Which one would you choose?! We also meet some amazing women, Alexandria's girls! I can't wait to see how these characters evolve in the books to come. Amazing first book Angera! I can't wait to see what ginger gets up too!
5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on August 20, 2019 Verified Purchase Met Angera last October and asked if she was going to be writing about the MC club that appeared in the "Spin It" series and she said she was working on it. Well, Angera you have written an amazing book, the story is gripping and I didn't want to have to put the book down. Ruby, Quick and of course Miss Bella's story is freaking awesome!
I loved how much passion was in Alexandria. Maddox and Alexandria have some serious chemistry. He truly cares and only wants the best for her. I have read the rock star books many times but I haven't ever read a DJ one before. It was explosive, I mean it made me want to go to the club and experience it myself.
I thought Alexandria was amazing and this one was just as good if not better! Ginger was a saucy bad-ass as usual and finds herself in this book. Shy is a hot, dominant biker that just won't give up. Brant is the steady, sexy man who knows what he wants. The sex scenes are smoking hot! I can't wait for more books on this group!
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of the book. Another book that proved to be so much more than I expected! How Angera Allen so seamlessly blended music, action, angst, tension, sex, family, and love I JUST DON'T KNOW! There was way more action than I was expecting, though knowing that this is an MC Romance sort of hybrid should have clued me in. And the love triangle between Ginger, Bryant, and Shy was so so intense! It's difficult to talk about the book without dropping spoilers, so I'll say that this is a series to go ahead and commit to and an author to watch. It's sort of genius that they went with this cover because it's so enticing and indicative of Ginger and the fact that she's so much more than what she appears on the surface. I give Ginger 4 out of 5 wine glasses and can't wait for the rest of the Spin It series!
I was lucky enough to get an ARC of this book. I love so much about this book! The love and bond between two best friends, Ruby feeling lost and hopeless after filing for divorce and realizing that she can do this with a little help from a group of friends that she's just met, but knowing she's got an up hill battle in front of her. I fell in love with firecracker (I mean Ruby) she's strong, sassy and takes no shit from anyone! Quick is a bad ass biker with a fun, loving personality.......... Sweet Jesus that man and the F-ing HOT HOT HOT Ass Sex they have Holy Shit!!!! Makes me wish I could do the Splits!!! Quick and Ruby's story will continue....... Can't wait see how it all unfolds.
5.0 out of 5 stars So hot and suspenseful - couldn't put it down! Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 28, 2022 Verified Purchase I loved this book - there's a LOT of hot scenes and a surprise on that too that I did NOT expect, but was thankful for lol! Violet is a strong character that I enjoy reading and her pushing back against all the domineering men in her life. I love the story lines with all the various MCs, mafia, and DJs and suspense thrown in throughout too, it's not just another "smutty" book. I couldn't put it down! Angera is a rare author that can totally get you sucked into the story that you have no idea what is going on in your life around you while reading it. You get excited about the book. She includes the songs/artists, which I just asked Alexa to play while I was reading and made it so much better! I also love her because she puts importance on the editing, and it's not full of spelling errors or wrong uses of the words everywhere that irritate me with other books I've read. Can't wait for the next one - Raydene? I'm worried about her!!
5.0 out of 5 stars 🌹*🖤*° °*🖤*°🌹 Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 15, 2019 Verified Purchase This being the third book in the Spin It Inc. Series, featuring some very talented women DJ’s working for Lucas Mancini’s record label, I am ashamed to say that this book is the first one from Angera Allen that I have read. They have long been on my TBR, but I have now one-clicked those and am going back to read about Izzy’s best friends and sisters-in-life, Alexandria, Ginger, and the men surrounding their stories. Now though, it seems to be the turn of Izzy and Gus, and there’s the usual start to any book, the anticipation building as Izzy is heading back to Gus awaiting the talk that will change everything between them. Then BAM – things turn to poos. All I’m going to say for now though, is that Izzy’s story packs some punch. Coming in hot at Book 3, I do feel like there is enough background to enjoy it as a stand-a-lone. What I would advise though is, to go back and start with Alexandria, Book One, and follow through with Ginger. The writing is fantastic and I can tell you now, you won’t be disappointed.
5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 23, 2021 Verified Purchase Angera Allen does it again, each one of her books has pulled me in! I love how the books intertwine with each other, bringing characters from previous books and introducing new characters, it always leaves me wanting more. I have enjoyed getting to know all of the characters, and I can not wait to meet the next ones! All of her books, give me the thrills that I need, suspense, thrills, romance (hard and soft), and a bit of intrigue! You will not be sorry for picking up these books!!!!
Im going to start by saying how nice it was to read about something a bit different with this story focusing around the DJ scene. The characters in this book are fantastic, from the broody males to the sassy females it has it all. I was hooked trying to swallow page after page to find out what would hapen next. Unbelievably this is a debut which you would never believe upon reading it. It was great to also read a story that kept you trying to guess who the 'bad guy' was which i didnt have until it was revealed. Overall a fantastic story, very well written and some steamy scenes. I cant wait to read Gingers story
Well, well, well. What do we have here? A debut author that put a different spin on the romance genre? Why, yes indeed! We have suspense. We have music. We have a DJ business. We have Alpha male in all it's glory and Maddox is going to make sure that he comes out on top. But at what price and will he win the girl, or will he go too far? Alexandria is the main POV we hear from throughout the story along with Maddox. Alex is the girl that has been sheltered the last few years of her life because of a traumatic event that took place. She can't remember all the pieces and her family will do anything to protect her and keep her safe. But when her chance comes up to join her family back in the states, she's there and going to take control of her life once again. At the beginning, Alex bugged me a little bit. But over the scope of the story she changes and grows up a bit. She repeatedly mentions she is a brat, but if she doesn't want to be one, why doesn't she stop and grow? Eventually she does and takes over pieces of her life she once lost before. Enter Maddox, another DJ that her father wants to bring on board to his Spin It Inc company. He's all male, all alpha and totally wants Alexandria from day one. I'm not all for instalove, but Alexandria and Maddox make it work. Their chemistry is on from day one and it is palatable. You can taste it through the pages. With a bit of inner dialogue from both characters we see how their relationship is seen and how they feel about one another. They are hot for one another, but there is an outside force that will do anything to ruin a future. With the characters and plot lines set, Angera Allen has developed a story that can continue with other characters she has so nicely set up. While this book is complete and the main characters get their ending, we are also set up for future stories and future characters oh so seamlessly. And honestly, I can't wait for their stories (ahem. Gin...) Good storytelling and a well developed plot. Can't wait to see what else this new author will come up with.
I received this book yesterday late afternoon and I am already done with it (like seriously, read it in less than 24 hours). I could not put this book down. It was SOOOO good. I was already in love with this group of people after reading the Spin it Books but this just made me fall harder and more in love with these characters. Ruby 'Firecracker' and Quick are so perfect together. I love how he builds her up and just lets her be her. The two of them together...holy WOW...and DAMN! 5 stars all the way. This book pulled me in from the first page and didn't let me go until I finished. And seriously, how you going to leave us like that? Damn it, when does the next one come out? I need to know the rest of their story. I can't wait to see more of these characters in the Wolfmen series and in Izzys book for the Spin it series. You have meshed these two worlds so perfectly together that you wouldn't know they are from two different series. You get better each book I read and I can't wait to dive into the next one and watch you bloom and grow even more into your talent as an author.
WOW! This is an intense series and the second book keeps up the same level of heat and suspense! We met Ginger in the first book of SPIN IT and knew she had a past and now we learn what the past is when it collides head on with her present life and hang on because it is quite a wild ride! The women characters in this series are strong, confident, and not afraid to defend themselves! The best part is the women each have the other's backs and don't turn into jealous enemies when their friends have success. I loved getting to know about Ginger's past and her family, especially how her father helped her reach for the stars and live her dreams. Shy, Brant, Gus, Maddox, Luc, and all the men are hot alpha males.....need I say more? Great chemistry, hot, hot, hot!!! This series is definitely one of my favorites!
