Izzy
Gallo has never been described as a member of the weaker sex. She’s a woman who
doesn’t take shit from anyone. Growing up with four older overprotective brothers
has hardened her, making her a force to be reckoned with.
Against
the wishes of her two brothers, Joe and Mike, Izzy takes a weekend trip to Bike
Week in Daytona, turning her world upside down.
Over
her head, in a world she doesn’t understand, there’s only one man who can save
her.
James
Caldo has dedicated his life to protect and serve as a member of the DEA. He’s
cocky, overbearing, and doesn’t take no for an answer – the Gallo men have
nothing on him.
When
their paths cross, James makes Izzy question everything she believes about
completely surrendering to the opposite sex.
Does
James have what it takes to overpower the headstrong Izzy, capturing her heart
forever?
Manda's 4 Star Review:
Izzy
Gallo has grown up with 4 brothers who have taught her how to be strong. She
knows she can take care of herself and doesn't need a man like her brothers to
protect her. Against the wishes of her brothers Izzy takes a weekend trip to
bike week and finds herself in a world of trouble. A trip to a bar with her
current fling and Izzy finds herself in the sights of a very dangerous man. A
little bit of luck on her side keeps Izzy out of his hands but the only man
that can get her out and safely home is the one man Izzy wants nothing to do
with.
James
Caldo is exactly the kind of man Izzy doesn't want. He is too much like her
brothers. He doesn't take no for an answer and he has decided he wants Izzy.
She doesn't want him in her life but he may be the only man who can handle her
and keep her out of trouble.
I
really like all the characters in this series but Izzy and James may be my
favorites. James is a super cocky DEA agent and he will stop at nothing to get
what he wants. Izzy is just as cocky and is also determined to get what she
wants. This makes for a fantastic story that will get your attention from the
beginning and make it impossible to put this book down. Not to mention we get a
little taste of the rest of the Gallo family. Definitely my favorite so far and
I cannot wait for the next book in the series. Fantastic job again Chelle Bliss
I am a big fan!! This is definitely a series you don't want to miss.

Manda's 3 Star Review:
As
City and Suzy prepare for their upcoming wedding it's time to have a little fun
and let loose. City heads out with his boys for wild night of fun and drinks
and Suzy sets out to take on the town with her girls. Things can get a little
wild but when you are partying with the Gallos you can guarantee things will
heat up. A misunderstanding leads both City and Suzy to question things about
their relationship and think about their future together. When you mix Alcohol,
jealousy and peer pressure together you are sure to get something explosive.
City and Suzy are forced to take a hard look at their relationship and decide
how to more forward.
I
was so excited to read this!! I loved City and Suzy's story and could not wait
to read about their wedding. The Gallo family is amazing and keep everything
interesting. This is a really quick read that you wont want to put down. I love
reading about their relationship and how they handle the things that are thrown
at them. This book also leaves you really excited to find out what happens
next. Really looking forward to Resist Me.
Hook Me (Men of Inked
#2) by Chelle Bliss
Michael Gallo found his calling in life – he wants to kick ass. He works
at Inked as a piercer, but spends his mornings training and dreaming of winning
an UFC championship. Michael is the road to achieving his goal when a chance
encounter alters his world forever. The title is no longer enough – he must
capture the woman of his dreams.
Dr. Mia Greco is dedicated to saving lives and helping those less
fortunate. She doesn’t have time to meet Mr. Right with her busy schedule. She
buries herself in her work and helping humanity. Fate steps in and sweeps the
carpet out from under her. She tries to deny the pull to him, a man that uses
his fists for gain, but the universe won’t let her walk away so easy and
Michael isn’t one to take no for an answer.
He has a secret that may rip them apart. There are forces bigger than
them at work; drawing them in and making their worlds collide – not letting
either one of them walk away.

Michael
Gallo and his sibling run a successful tattoo business called Inked, but each
has their own passion that they pursue. Michael is a fighter and has been
working hard to reach his dream of a UFC championship. He is determined not to
get distracted by anything that could take away from what he has worked so hard
for, and then he meets her. Mia Greco is a doctor who spends her life taking
care of people and has no interest in a man who hurts people for a living. Mia
tries to stay away from Michael but there is something about him that she
cannot resist. As the two grow closer she discovers something from his past
that will change everything.
I
am a huge fan of the first book in this series and really loved all the Gallo
siblings. I was really looking forward to hearing Michael's story. I love
Micheal and Mia's characters and the progression of their story. However I
didn't like it as much as the first book in the series. The story was
entertaining and kept my attention but I felt the major problem they faced was
a bit too crazy for me. Still I really like the characters and the storyline
and am very anxiously awaiting hearing the rest of the Gallo siblings stories.
Will their love survive his alpha nature or will it all unravel before
she can say ‘I do’?

4 Star Review:
Control
freak Suzy never does anything that doesn't fit in to her life plan. She is
looking for her white picket fence, happily ever after. She has no room in her
life for taking chances, until one night she finds herself broken down at the
side of the road. With no other choice she accepts the help of City, the
tattooed bad boy on a shiny motorcycle. Suzy lets go of her life plan for one
minute and spends a night of passion with the bad boy biker. He doesn't fit
into her plan at all but something about him makes it impossible to just walk
away.
This
was the first Chelle Bliss book I have read and I must say that I will
definitely be reading more of her books. I cannot wait for the second book in
the series. The characters are wonderfully written and its impossible not to
love City. I definitely recommend this book for all those tattooed, motorcycle
riding, bad boy lovers out there. Fantastic book Chelle Bliss! Looking forward
to book 2!!
