Re-read this book again and I am still in love with Winter, Viper and the Last Riders. They grow on me every time I read Jamie Begley's book. Jamie Begley's book are fantastic and I love all her series.
Jamie Begley does it again. Another fantastic book in The Last Riders Series.
Winter Simmons is a High School Principal and is dating local business man Loker James. Little did she know that Loker was hiding a secret from her.
Loker James is also known as Viper, President of the Last Riders. Viper wants to know who killed his brother. He will uses anybody who gets in his way, this includes Winter.
Winter's learns the truth and her life just goes from bad to worse.
I would recommend this series and I can't wait to read Knox's Stand.

What. A. Nightmare. Second book in series.
If it had been a physical book I would have thrown it across the room. As it was I almost returned it to the library at hour 2 of the audiobook. I decided to power through (and speed up the playback speed) to see if Viper would eventually have some redeeming quality.
Not a spoiler because it was evident in the first chapter, no redemption arc, just 24 minutes from the end he is still putting Winter into uncomfortable sexual situations without prior consent and then gaslighting her into agreeing she likes it. (And coercion into future body modification)
Another emotionally fragile heroine groomed into marriage to the protagonist who lets the club members treat her terribly. Apparently no woman in the town has ever heard "past behavior is the best indication of future actions." Why am I still subjecting myself to this series? The sad answer, it was already checked out of the library.

Winter Simmons is the local High School’s Principal and paragon of her comunity. She has been dating local business Loker James for almost two years. Never going beyond the casual date or watching movies, Winter is surprised when it is revealed that Loker is none other than the President of the local Motorcycle gang and is called Viper.
Viper dated Winter for almost two years in an effort to get closer to her cousin, Vincent. Vincent had killed his brother years before and Viper needed a way to get closer, so he used Winter. When Winter finds out what he has done, she is devastated...but shocked when Viper ultimately decides that he wants Winter in his life regardless of anything that has happened before.
When I originally read this book, I read this book first in the series. HUGE mistake, let me tell you. If you try to read this book first, it is completely confusing. I didn’t understand the characters, and as you start the book, its almost expected for you to have read the first book. Characters aren’t explained at all and I was pretty well lost for the first third of the book, still not realizing I was reading the series in the wrong order. There are numerous grammar issues and multiple problems with pronouns throughout which can easily take you out of the story when you try to figure out what the author was actually meaning.
While Viper’s Run does have the good girl bad boy romance thing going on, it goes beyond that. Winter is beaten very badly and requires extensive physical therapy. At the beginning of the novel, you absolutely hate Viper. He seems self-centered, egotistical, and only out for what he wants. Yet when she’s horribly hurt, he comes through for her more than he ever had to and much more than I ever thought.
So all in all a fairly decent story. I had problems because of not reading the series in the right order but the grammar issues also kept me from loving the story like I wanted. Great dynamics though after you get into the story and lets be honest, I liked them enough to read all three within a weekend. Ultimately it was the character that had me coming back for more, which is a true testament to the author’s work. Just please oh please, get a new editor!
