Stryker

Salvation's Bane MC, Book 6

De: Marteeka Karland

Narrado por: Umi Markkanen

Glitter: Yes, that’s my real name. Born stripper name, I know. I’ve been on my own since I was 14. When I tried to get a job with Salvations Bane MC at their strip club, Salvation’s Angels, their security saw right through my fake ID. Lucky for me, the club sent me to Beach Fit, their fitness club, until I turned 18. Now I work at Angels, and the crowd here loves me. Stryker’s still looking out for me. For some reason he thinks I’m a magnet for trouble. Now that I’ve got his full attention, I know what I want, and I’m going to prove him right.

Stryker: We try our best to keep things at the club legit. Last thing we need is an underage dancer attracting too much attention. OK, so she’s legal now, has been for nearly two years, but that girl’s everything this old man doesn’t need—and can’t afford. But there’s another club encroaching on our territory, setting up a BDSM club on the other side of town, as a front to run drugs. Now I’ve got word there’s even more going on at The Dark than drugs. I was right. And who do I find right in the middle of it but Glitter. Only, she’s not involved with the thugs at The Dark. She’s their prisoner—a sub who has no idea what it means to be a sub, but she thinks she wants to learn.

Glitter and Stryker’s Steamy Love Story.

OMG, I need a cold shower, or two, or three after the steaminess of this audiobook. Glitter and Stryker have explosive chemistry that is off the charts.
I will admit that some of the scenes were a bit too much for this mid-60’s grandma, but I was warned beforehand. I definitely learned a thing or two.

If you are looking for an audiobook that will totally envelop and immerse you, look no further. Just make certain you have an iced cold drink handy, and keep the room cool when you are listening to this story because everything will heat up.

Good

This was another good listen. This is another book in the series where another one of the boys got there happy ever after with there old lady.

Great addition to the series

This is the fifth novella in the Salvation's Bane MC Series. I like this series. Stryker and Glitter's story is intense, passionate, and entertaining. I liked Stryker's protectiveness. This is a great addition to the series. Umi Markkanen did a good job bringing this story to life. #StoryOrigin

Going Out with a Bang

This one didn't hook me as much as I anticipated. Glitter is interesting, and I love her attitude about her job. Stryker is alpha, ridiculous, and unintentionally funny, at least to me.

The chemistry between them is a mixed bag, especially when they fight it. I can't. Rather, I won't deny that the dances she performs for him are off-the- charts steamy. I definitely love them. That last one should be immortalized. 🌶🥵🔥❤️👀🫦💦💥 Honestly, I rounded my rating up simply for that scene.

There were parts related to Butcher and The Dark that could've been fleshed out a little better. Still, I do like how that all concluded.

There are crossovers from other series, which I always love. It's like seeing an old friend. Well, for some of the men. 😉 Of course, there are plenty of interactions with the others within this series, too. How they all look out for Glitter, even when she really messes up, is beautiful.

I received an author's copy of the audio book. The narrator is Umi Markkanen. Even while I'd love another voice to accompany her sometimes, Umi does a wonderful job providing voices that are easy to listen to.

Great story.

Glitter tries to sneak in underage to work at a strip club. She is caught and given a different job until she is of age and can work in the job she wants. Stryker is protective of Glitter and this causes some interesting situations. The narrator is fantastic and I look forward to more.

Another hit from Karland!

This was a fun, quick read with lots of action, drama, danger and romance built in—perfect to keep me company while I work. I can’t imagine ever turning down a Karland read—they’re pretty much all very similar to one another, but I love the world she’s created, the protective, secretly sweet men, and all the danger.

🎧 Audio:
I absolutely love this narrator—she manages to make these sound like duet narrations. She also performs, none of that robotic dictating here! Her voice is great, and the overall sound quality is flawless. 5 stars.

Glitter and Stryker

I really like Marteeka’s MC books. Each is uniquely it’s own, yet characters from other stories pop up frequently. It is like getting to know the whole extended family. Striker is part of the MC. Glitter works as a dancer in one of their clubs.She enjoys dancing, and showing her body. Another MC with a BDSM club has come to town, except they are not so nice. Glitter gets roughed up, and Stryker to the rescue. Their relationship is different, but different still works. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Stryker

Glitter works at a club. Stryker wasn't only patched member he was the head of security at the playground(club). This relationship is different, but it works so well.
I love Umi Markkanen voice, she sucks me right into all these books. I love the MC books. They are amazing.

Good addition

I enjoyed this addition to the series. I did like the development of the relationship between Glitter and Stryker I only wish there were a little more details about the other club and the problems there. But overall I enjoyed the story and these characters. Narration was done well.

Another excellent Marteeka/Umi production

What I think of the narrator: Umi is a gem! I absolutely LOVE her voice acting.
What I think about the story: Marteeka hit it out of the park again! I get so excited every time one of her audiobooks becomes available to review. Glitter is such an upbeat character who makes everybody around her feel good. Stryker is so Alpha without being an Alphahole and he has hidden depths. I liked that the story played with power exchange and that the main characters were so well-suited that way.
Unsolicited Life Advice- if you’re gonna name your kid “Glitter”, it’s a given she’s going to end up as a stripper. Just sayin.
