A review by trudyd
Smoke and Steel by Kristen Ashley

4.0

Great romance and important lessons. Hardcore thinks he deserves nothing after what he did in the past. He spends his days trying to redeem himself. He and his club protect those that can't protect themselves. He and his club get redemption for those that have been wronged. He still doesn't think he deserved happiness or love.

He watches over Hellen making sure Nails doesn't dig her nails into her. His watch becomes confrontation when Hellen and her girls go for their own redemption.

Smoke and Steel is a love story that almost wasn't. Smoke and Steel is a story about forgiveness, for others actions and forgiveness for one's own actions. The story hooked me with the wonderful characters. It grabbed hold of me with the dance of romance between Hellen and Core.
