Summary

Florist Terri Martin lives a calm and peaceful life. Maybe too calm and too peaceful because she can't remember the last time she was in a relationship.

Terri calls Bad Boys for Hire to book herself a date for her thirtieth birthday party, but before she can hire one, she meets Ryker Slade, a biker hiding from his motorcycle club.

Old vendettas resurface and soon, Terri has more than she can handle when she learns that her and Ryker's love is as doomed as Romeo and Juliet's.

Ryker thinks he has a way out, but can Terri escape her fate, or will she find her lover dead before she wakes?

Bad Boys for Hire are fun and exciting stories where love is unexpected, but always delicious. They can be listened to standalone, but for greater enjoyment, please be sure to check out the other books in the series.

Bad Boys for Hire Series was awarded the 2016 Beck Valley Books Reviewers Choice Award.

Great story

All poor Terri wants is a date for her birthday.by chance she meets up with Ryker. It made me grin from the start. I can always tell when a book will grab me within the first few pages. Boy this did, I sat listening this book for whole story in one sitting. Utterly enjoyable. Great story great characters. Utterly fantastic. Highly recommended. You won't forget this modern Romeo and Juliet. But with a different take. Superbly written.

Biker Club Romeo and Juliet version with a twist

Take an ex-biker turned marine turned medically discharged homeless and jobless civilian. Add one ex-biker princess turned self-employed florist. Include a seriously large helping of chemistry and sizzling action in bed. Then add a biker club versus biker club feud. And an unusual hire a bad boy service to thrown the reader for a loop. Oh! And don't forget the random twists in the plot that include surprising reveals. This book may be a modern interpretation of Romeo and Juliet but don't be fooled. There is so much more going on than what meets the eye!! It is definitely an entertaining, and hot, read!!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

I'm a sucker to the lure of the bad boys ;)

Exciting ,funny,sexy .yes please bring on book 2!The title suggests there are more books to come in this series, and while there are lots of hooks /additional characters who could go on to lead their own stories, this particular story is nicely wrapped up with no gaping loose ends.
A great listen, and I will look out for future books by R.Ayala.C.Abells' performance is excellent. Characters have distinctive voices (i.e differentiable), the pacing and speed of the story was well done. Production was excellent .this book was a great find :)I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.I received this title for free in exchange for an unbiased review.As always this is my honest opinion .

A new Romeo and Juliet twist!

A modern day Romeo and Juliet, this book is fast paced and fun. Terri, a florist hooks up with Ryker, a man she hires to help for a day in her store. He seems familiar, but little does she know, her past will come back full force! This dynamic duo has chemistry from the minute they meet. The rivalry of their families with the backing of their respective motorcycle clubs is very intimidating through the story, but Rachelle Ayala gives this old Shakespearean classic a new twist, so you are kept guessing throughout the story. I loved the performance of Ken, from Bad Boys for Hire and his quick but oh so important role. He gave me a chuckle with his act and was impressed that he put himself in harm's way for the job. There is a glimpse of Terri's friends who are also in book 2, giving a little background on the upcoming events, but it is this series can definitely be read as a standalone for each book.

Chris Abell is amazing with his narration. He is able to capture the heat and passion in one scene and turn to the next and make you feel the fear of what is coming up! He does an incredible performance.
