Sugar and Skulls

Rebel Skulls MC, Book One

By: LM Terry

Narrated by: Laurie West, Christian Black

Jesse

When I was ten, I was a naïve, shy girl. A girl who dreamed of sunsets and roller skates. Until my grandparents died. Then I found myself alone in the world. One bad thing after another seemed to find me but I dealt. I dealt because a man with a black leather jacket and ink from head to toe, told me how to survive this world. He told me that, sometimes, you have to get mean. And so, I embraced my mean. I hated it at first but as time went on, being mean became second nature.

I rule my world, staying ahead, never stopping. You won’t find anyone like me. I’m Jesse Miller and I’m one of a kind. I’m fine on my own.

Fine.

Perfect.

Good.

Until I’m not.

Dirk

When I found Jesse at ten years old, she was cute as a button and sweet as a jar of honey. I gave her a bit of advice to survive this world. I hated to be cynical, but she was in the foster care system. She needed to learn a little mean, otherwise, she would be eaten alive.Now, I’ve found her again and believe me, Jesse Miller isn’t a little girl anymore. Seems she took my advice to heart. I may have created a monster. She’s a dark-haired vixen with a wicked mind and sharp tongue. Jesse is very, very enticing.

She thinks she can do it on her own.

She doesn’t have to.

She has a family.

A tribe.

Me.

She has me.

Sugar and Skulls is a stand-alone novel. It is a dark romance, but I promise it does have a HEA. There is no cheating in this novel. It does contain dark content, including, but not limited to profanity, sexual abuse, and violence. It could possibly have triggers for some individuals.

Loved it 😀

I read this series and it's one of my favorite. It was great to be able to listen to it and I can't wait for the next one.

Sugar and spice..

Sugar and skulls is the first book in the Rebel skulls MC series by LM Terry. This is Jesse and Dirk’s story. This is a new to me author & therefore series as well. I was really impressed with the story. I enjoyed the characters and I’m interested to see what happens in the next book. I actually started this and finished this in like two days I think. I just couldn’t put it down once I started it. this is a dark romance, so be sure to check your trigger warnings. The FMC is bad ass! the MC is damaged, but overall it’s a really good story about found family and the healing power of love and not just romantic love. This book has dual narration. One thing I also enjoyed was the third wall breakage to it’s not some thing you see very often in books and it didn’t take me out of the story it worked with it.
✨Age gap 16 years
✨Motorcycle club
✨Found family
And more
Just be sure to check trigger warnings before reading. I think that those situations that are talked about in the book are handled delicately meaning they’re shown, but they’re not to in your face if that makes sense.

the detail allows you to be in the moment with the characters

I was able to feel the emotions with the characters. Each part was well written. The situations are plausible and very emotion filled. You can really hate the villans and root for the victims.

Amazing!

This series is one of my favorites. I was so excited that the audio book finally came out. The narration was perfect. They did an excellent job on the sexy scenes! It had been a while since I last read the book and forgot how incredible this book is. I can't wait for Watercolor skulls!

Love love love

Loved reading this series and I can’t wait to be able to listen to them whenever I want.

Hidden Gem

This story was amazing ! This is a new author to me and I didn’t know what to expect . There are some tough topics in this book hence the trigger warning . It broke my heart to see what Jesse went through during her childhood . Then Dirk fixed her and put her back together again . The hero is 16 years older so this is an age gap , Mc romance with dark elements . Jesse has become my new favorite heroine . She was just kickass from the beginning . This author is one to watch . I can’t say enough good things about this story . It’s truly one of the best that I’ve read in years !

Great job at capturing the emotions of this story

I have previously read this book so was excited to see it come to audio as it has become an easy way to "re-read" my favorite books. This was the first audiobook where even though I knew the story it still made me cry at one point simply because of how well the narrators brought the emotion to life. This story is full of tough subjects that can be emotional to read about, but our heroine's strength and perseverance was remarkable. It is an age gap romance. I hope we will get the other books in this series on audio, especially the story of our heroine's daughter. This author isn't afraid to write about real life subjects in a way that makes you feel all the emotions while reading, but end with inspiration and hope for overcoming these tough obstacles/situations.

One of my favorites

Such an amazing story. Loved reading and then listening again. Can't wait for all the books to be on audible.
