Seventeen-year-old Violet has always been expected to sit back and let the boys do all the saving.
It’s the code her father, a member of the Reign of Terror motorcycle club, raised her to live by. Yet when her dad is killed carrying out Terror business, Violet knows it’s up to her to do the saving. To protect herself, and her vulnerable younger brother, she needs to cut all ties with the club—including Chevy, the boy she’s known and loved her whole life.
But when a rival club comes after Violet, exposing old secrets and making new threats, she’s forced to question what she thought she knew about her father, the Reign of Terror, and what she thinks she wants. Which means re-evaluating everything: love, family, friends . . . and forgiveness.
Caught in the crosshairs between loyalty and freedom, Violet must decide whether old friends can be trusted—and if she’s strong enough to be the one person to save them all.

So I obviously have Long Way Home on my wish list, but I also need all of the Thunder Road books in hardcover along with Crash Into You. I’ve read all of them (minus LWH), but I read them as ebooks, so I didn’t get physical copies. I really need physical copies. 🙁
I finally read my first Katie McGarry book just this year (a few weeks ago) and really liked it. 🙂
