Rebel

Wolfes of Manhattan, Book 1

De: Helen Hardt

Narrado por: Troy Duran, Kendall Taylor

When Rock Wolfe was fourteen, he tried to kill his father.

Twenty years later, someone else finished the job.

Now Rock is returning to New York for the reading of the billionaire's will. No way did Derek Wolfe leave anything to his oldest son, but according to Rock's brother, his presence is required.

Estate attorney Lacey Ward isn't looking forward to the reading. None of Derek Wolfe's children will be happy, least of all his oldest. When Rock enters the conference room, Lacey is stunned. He's a rebel--a biker all muscled and gorgeous in black leather. This won't be easy, especially since she can't stop staring at him.

Rock pays no attention to the reading. He's lost in a fantasy of bending his father's hot attorney over a desk. He's not a commitment kind of guy, though, and she screams white picket fence. Sparks fly between them, but the murder lurks in the back of their minds.

Rock knows all his family's secrets...or so he thinks. Mysteries seem to hide everywhere--mysteries that threaten not only his and Lacey's future but their lives as well.

Review of whole series - Wolfes of Manhattan

This series follows the Wolfe siblings finding love while entrenched in a mystery about their fathers death, in which they all are implicated. Each book gives you little nuggets of information, while spinning the mystery of Derek Wolfe's life. Derek was not a good man, and as you go through the series, you find out more and more about how terrible he really was. I love how the siblings stuck together, communicated with each other and worked with and helped each other, even though Derek did his best to alienate all of them to each other in life. As for the romance aspect of the books, I LOVE that the books don't follow the "formula" of the romance genre. I love that the relationships (albeit ridiculously quickly to develop) are solid. The entire series develops over a few short months.

Intriguing storyline

Series is off to a good start; hope the next book in series has been released! Not fond of books ending in a cliffhanger. That Derek and Connie were a piece of work. Can’t wait to clear up some of this stuff. Both narrators did an awesome job; love Troy’s low gravelly voice.

Cringy to Listen To

Cringy to Listen. I just couldn’t connect with Rock or Lacey. For a lawyer, Lacey was so immature and “sheltered.” I stayed to the end to see if her character would evolve, but it disappointed.

the suspense

Can't wait for the next book, on the edge of my seat retirement g ro figure out whi done it.

Fantastic Series!!!

I have finished series to book 4 and I love the writing style and the characters. A good mystery along with a hot guy and multiple O’s make a great romance book!

Great Read

Rebel (Wolfes of Manhattan #1) was a great read by Helen Hardt. Rock Wolfe tried to kill his father when he was fourteen. Someone else finished the job twenty years later. Rock is now returning to New York to hear the reading of his fathers will. His brother told him that he needed to be there. Lacey Ward, the estate attorney, isn’t looking forward to the reading. None of the children will be happy, especially Rock. He pays no attention to the reading and is lost in fantasies about Lacey. I enjoyed reading this book and cant wait to read more by the author.

The Narrator is the only saving grace

Okay so I tried really hard to like this book. I wanted to like this book, but I didn’t love it. The inner dialogue was so drawn out and it was repeating the same thoughts over and over. I really don’t like books who don’t wrap things up or at least mostly wrap up a story before ending. I wish I had known that the book doesn’t end, there’s no final scene where you at least get some closure, you just get a cliffhanger and when you get the next book, it’s new M and F MC for the main story. It’s super annoying and I definitely wouldn’t have bought it had I known. However, Troy Duran is always amazing and his voice is sexy as hell.

Devoured this book in 1 day !!

I’m so loving the beginning of this series & have already ordered book 2 to continue
I’m so very bummed I’m just now discovering this Author!
Her writing is wonderful !!!
It’s so refreshing to read a romance book that is not all about the typical cliche trope of boy meets girl, we can’t be together, we can’t fight our attraction,here comes trouble, guy rescues her from trouble,& finally we are now in love so let’s live HEA… ughh
This book is a strong story/plot, unique, intriguing, mysterious, exciting, angst. Alpha bad a$$ male lead,strong female lead, great side characters as part of the story with just enough spice & super sexy encounters that makes it a steamy romance, but not too much that makes it porn on paper.
I will definitely explore this author’s library of books
So worth the credit !

Same as Steel

It was good, but too many similarities with the steel brothers saga. Also it would’ve been better to have a different narrator, also sounded the same as steel brothers. Still a good storyline and suspenseful I will read the next book in the series.

loved it

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall
