Vader was the member of the group everyone thought had died because none of the Montana Bad Boys could find him.

The beginning of this book was not only intense, it was crazy.? Her first appearance in the book had me wondering, "WTH was wrong with her?" Talk about asking for trouble. I did end up liking Franny because she never backed down from a fight.

She and Vader (Austin) found something that neither one was looking for, nor wanted. I thought their connection was interesting. Just the fact that two very different people found a measure of peace in being with each other.

The thing that got to me was that this story seemed to go off in so many different tangents. I don't want to list them because that would be giving part of the story away.

I was glad that Austin and Franny got their HEA like the rest of the guys. I was going for a 3.5 until I got to the end. Totally unexpected and surprising!

There was a mystery, some action, suspense, danger, a few twists and turns, some romance, steamy scenes, and of course spankings. It wouldn't be a Montana Bad Boys book without those.

I voluntarily read and reviewed the Advanced Reader Copy of this book received via Booksprout.

Read in one sitting

Was thinking this was just another romance. Well... I was wrong.
I actually enjoyed the story, was written well the characters are all thought out and I loved each one of them. The story was an emotional roller coaster. Great story will definitely read the the other guys stories.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Austin is book 5 in the Montana Bad Boys series by Piper Stone. The story and love affair between Franny and Austin (Vader) is intense. The story is hot and heavy and won't be for everyone. Their hot and heavy romance is a little outside of what could be traditionally the norm. Austin/Vader is a strong but troubled man. He and the other Montana Boys all share a tragedy in their past that has shaped them into who they are. The other guys have met their match and these women being them a sort of peace in tbe previous books in the series. When Vader meets Franny the chemistry is off the charts.

Francesca Montgomery is a senator and picking up a hitchhiker on a rainy, rainy night is very out of character for her. She is a strong believer in fighting for what is right. I just had a little trouble with how fast she was willing to spend the night with a stranger. I guess as much as she is able to see the good in Vader, he sees Franny's wild streak.

This story is more than just romance. There is an arsonist torching buildings, blackmail, threats and attempted murder. It grabbed me from page one and held me until the happily ever after. Austin is a satisfying wrap to the Montana Bad Boys series.
