Arkham

Bones MC, Book 5

De: Marteeka Karland

Narrado por: Umi Markkanen

Rain: The gangs of the underground can be brutal. I know this well, and have the scars to prove it. So when a team of rough-looking men start nosing around the slums of Rockwell, I make it my business to know what they’re up to. One in particular catches my eye. He’s rough and scary looking, but his touch is gentle when it needs to be. He’s older and more experienced in every way than me, but I’m still drawn to him. I’m not sure why, but I want him. And when I let him take me, I’ll savor the experience until it’s time to go.

Arkham: The little pixie warrior is a conundrum if ever there was one. She’s strong and capable, but scarred inside and out. I can’t fix what’s broken inside her, but I can share her burdens and make her part of my circle. I’ll take her with me, with Bones MC. She’ll be protected there. But who’s gonna protect her from me?

**Warning** Bones is a rough MC. They can be violent, but they’re protective to a fault. The men love sex, and the women don’t shy away from it. If you think you can handle their brand of loving, download this audiobook.

Action packed

Arkham is another quick read full of action, suspense and romance. The story was completely brought to life by the talented Umi Markkanen.

Awesome Story

Arkam and Rain kept me caught up in this exciting story. Rain is fierce woman who has dealings with the underground. She and Arkham connect, and their path begins in this exciting story filled with twists and turns that had me connecting with Rain and cheering for her to finally get her chance for happiness. The narration for the book is excellent and I could listen to this story over and over.

Trust is...

I am sooo in love with this series. Every story gets better and better. This is no different.

Enters Rain. A woman living among the ruins, abused, bruised, and permanently scarred, she moves between the ruins and the gangs to just survive until she sees a group of men. To her, they are not like the gangs, and they do not belong, but she sees him. He is huge and gorgeous aaannnd now he has her..not only in his sights but in his grasp. The thing is, she knows what their there for except she doesn't know yet.

Enter stage right: Arkham. He’s rough and scary looking, and he had sptted Rain. To him, he sees a boy until he touches her. And every fiber in his being has him on alert to touch, to hold, to protect, and he sees he is a she - a beautiful little pixie. Arkham realizes not only is he drawn to her, but she is everything he has ever wanted - strong, fearless, and honorable. However, he’s older and more experienced in every way, and he has to gain her trust, and he does, but after she saves them and help them find what/who they came for.

Arkham and Rain find each other and along the way disperses past baggage and connect physically, emotionally and find that trust is more than just an action to be used but and honorable feeling that you are never ever alone.

I am so loving the narrator's voice, especially when she does other in the MC.

Excellent series and characters!!!!

Great audiobook

This audiobook was excellent. Had good characters and they were well done by the narrator. The storyline was good and enjoyable. The more stories you get into the series the more you like learning about each character from the MC. The worldbuilding on this was really good also. I received this with a promotional code and highly recommend the series. this is my honest review.

Captured by a Sprite

Oh my gosh! Rain! Oh, as a momma, I just wanted to wrap that poor girl in my arms and hug her tight. The fact that she managed to bring Arkham to his knees made me love her all the more. Add to that her ability to survive the life, if you can really call what she was doing much of one, she found herself in makes her one heck of a badass in my book.

There are definitely some unpleasant parts to this - some explicit, others implied. Other than being too short, though, it was a good read.

I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrator is Umi Markkanen, who always does a good job.

Narration review: The narration was very good. The narrator was clear and easy to understand. She was good at both male and female voices. I’d be happy to listen to her again.
Story review: I loved the heroine. She was tough, but had a vulnerable side. She was young, but could take care of herself. The Hero was a delightfully alpha male with a loving side. I loved the fact that he didn’t push her into physical intimacy. He seemed to really care for the heroine. I enjoyed their relationship and liked them as a couple. There was an appropriate amount of action and suspense. I liked that the MC members didn’t kill just for the sake of killing, although there was some violence.
Overall, I enjoyed this audiobook very much and would be happy to listen to more from this author and/or narrator.

Bones MC

This is the fifth story in the "Bones MC" series. This one is about Arkham and Rain. She is a feisty and exactly what this man needs. Even more they are so much a like with the scars to prove it. I love how their story develops. This is a gritty fast paced story and a fairly quick read. This is such a good story with some interesting twists and turns. The narrator did a great job bringing the story to life.

Rain

I have enjoyed every one of the MC Bones stories by Marteeka Karland. The characters are real-life with their own unique strengths and weaknesses. It is a short story, but carries a lot of details and romance. It is well written, and good narration.

Arkham

I have been loving this series and getting to know each of the different members. Arkham finds his match in Rain. Instant chemistry between these two. It's short, hot and that's what you love about these books

everyone is deserving

This storyline sadly happens a lot. Someone is different in some way they are considered and outcast and may never find love. Thank God that this lovely lady does.
