Straight as a Wheel

Sex & Mayhem Series, Book 11

De: K.A. Merikan

Narrado por: Wyatt Baker

Your secret’s safe with me, Leo Heller. Whatever happens here, nobody will know. Ever. Do you understand?

Zolt: Gay. Player. Predator. Fetish: Straight guys.

Leo: Straight. Biker. Prey. Fetish: True love.

Zolt knows what he wants from life - cold hard cash so that he can enjoy an early retirement in the Caribbean as rent boys serve him drinks on the beach. Meanwhile, he’s got his pawn shop as a front for illegal operations and a baseball bat to deal with troublemakers.

When it comes to men, Zolt loves the chase, and his favorite, most elusive preys are curious straight guys. He goes out of his way to seduce and devour them. If he can be their first, all the better. His next mark? A biker. And not just any. An outlaw - Leo Heller.

Leo’s got his future all figured out. A wife, two to four kids, and maybe, a dog. If love was as easy as others make it seem, Leo would have been married already.

A string of failed relationships leads him to the one person he shouldn’t be crushing on, shouldn’t be admiring, and most definitely shouldn’t be touching. Because a man like Zolt Andorai won’t give Leo the family he wants. Hell, Zolt doesn’t even do boyfriends. But what Zolt does offer is no-strings-attached experimentation, and Leo is only human.

After all, if no one ever finds out Leo’s secret, it’s as if it doesn’t exist. One kiss leads to another, lines blur, and before Leo knows it, he’s in over his head. In love. Helpless.

Overall Good Story, Feisty characters!

I haven’t listened to or read any of the other titles in this series and this is my first time reading a book by K.A. Merikan. It was a good book, different than what I’d normally read. More violence, but a lot of steam and self discovery. Once getting into the story and wanting to know what happens with Leo and Zolt. It makes me happy to see Leo as sweet and desiring true love.. discovering his true desires. Zolt is just hot and dirty. Good story, I loved the MC aspect and feel like I needed a different headspace from
Other steamy reads with this book!

Exhilarating and Entertaining

Wow, this is truly , a thrilling , fun , non stop , exhilarating and seriously hot AF story , I enjoyed listening/reading.

Wyatt Baker is a new to me narrator. His dramatic , a times OTT , exuberant narration style , took me a bit to warm up. Yet , by %15 into the story, I was fully invested and charmed by his portrayal of Leo and Zolt.

Straight as a Wheel is my first book of the series and it perfectly stand alone .

100% recommend

This book was so far up my alley I think it's my new favorite from this author. It had a dark side and a few twists but nothing too extreme (aside from the poor fish which broke my heart). I'm happy with the ending, there was a satisfying emotional connection, there was an actual plot that was planned out with a bunch of little twists, and it was hot. The narration was fantastic and I hope all the future books remain with this narrator because he really seems to fit the essence and writing style of these books. I 100% recommend.

A Strong and Intense Romance

Straight as a Wheel is the eleventh book in the Sex and Mayhem series. This book focuses on the Smoke Valley MC, but it can easily be read as a standalone. I highly suggest reading all the other books in this series because they are all fantastic. The only thing is that these books are not for everyone. They are raw and gritty; these are men who are morally compromised who make choices that are not good. There is no redemption to these men, just hard love and hard choices. Read the warnings before deciding if this is the type of book for you.

K.A. Merikan are wonderful writers, and they really know how to create a tense and thrilling plotline that sucks the reader right in. The relationship between Leo and Zolt is intense and explosive—from their sex to the measures their go through to protect each other—there is no limits to what these men will do for each other.

The audiobook was narrated by Wyatt Baker who does a fantastic job with the narration. There is a lot of action throughout this book and it requires a high energy performance that does not cross the line into being too over the top or corny. Wyatt does a great job of not crossing that line and creating an electric performance that really enhances the story. Overall I loved this book and thought the audiobook performance was well done.

Another great story

I received an ARC of this audio for my honest review. Leo wants a wife, kids, and a home. He wants to fit in with the rest of his family. So much that he rushes into relationships settling instead of finding someone that wants what he wants. Zolt loves playing with straight men. He likes the chase and being the first man for the straight man. He has a green book full of all his conquests. Zolt has dreams of retiring to the Caribbean where he will lay on the beach and have his choice of boy toys to play with.

Great MC MM romance

This was a great MC MM romance. Leo, a straight biker acknowledges his attraction to Zolt, a local pawn shop owner. Great narration!

I Would Die For You

Enjoyed listening. Great story and narration. A sensitive young MC member accepting his sexuality and a hard gun runner hurt in the past allows himself to love.

Loved it

This was my first audiobook, and I really enjoyed it. I usually listen to music whole I clean, but decided to give this a try. I'm really glad I did, while it'll never replace my ebooks, it will be a great alternative to music while cleaning. The storyline and narrator's voice drew me in and had me mesmerized. It was really great.

Interesting dark bi-awakening

This was a weird mix of dark romance and fluffy sweet romance and I liked it. One lead fits the darker themes to a tee, the other was such a romantic it was sweet and it made the atmosphere lighter despite darker themes and violence. Overall I enjoyed it and I appreciated that Leo was able to embrace being bi. Narration worked for me. Can standalone despite being further in the series. Fun read with a good balance of action and relationship building.

Sexy bad boys with no rules!

Leo thought he was straight, but he soon found out how wrong he was! This book is super sexy with a dangerous plot involving murder, guns and lawless men. What more could you want? I absolutely loved it!
