Rebel

Wolfes of Manhattan, Book 1

By: Helen Hardt

Narrated by: 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.

Awesome

Helen Hardt does it Again which another amazing series! The Wolfe Family Saga!!!!!! Love it

Hot and Suspenseful

In typical Helen Hardt Fashion, this story is dark, sexy and suspenseful. Great narration. This was my introduction into Audible (not to Helen Hardt) and it was a fantastic introduction.

Amazing

The narrators voice is amazing! The story kept me on the edge of my seat, with all the plot twists and drama. As usual Helen did not disappoint!

Rebel without a cause…?

The story was great BUT there was a lot of reputation, like a lot that I thought unbecoming of Ms. Hardt.

The story s nice but the FMC is giving me sst in class in law school because critical thinking is beyond her… I would have appreciated if Lacey was law adjacent not an actual lawyer… but I guess there are clueless lawyers out there… just threw me off… not knowing what to ask when someone is trying to share something? Several times!!! Like no tact at all on how to bring out answers out of someone? I’m not a lawyer and I could ask questions especially with what was goin on in the story…

Rock Wolf’s character was fitting… no claims of being a brilliant mind… just a ragged handsome man because the Montana scene with the 2 lawyers there’s a name they never even thought of asking and for Lacey being there… gosh!

Anyway, she finally became sort of a lawyer at the end of the book…because I was 🙄 every time she was stupidly flabbergasted…

I digress, the story is about first born of abusive scumy pedo billionaire Derrick Wolf who was killed and Rock had to get to Manhattan because he had to be there for trading of the will… there he meets Lacey… insta love and they’re both implicated…
It’s a sweet story… I was to learn about Toy and I’ll see if I’ll continue…
The story is sweet except for some holes…

Worth a credit? I’ll say 50/50 here…

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.
