Synopsis
Marcos Rivera is a fighter. A gang member. Someone who has seen the dark side of humankind and survived. He has lost family and gained enemies. He has stolen cars and destroyed hearts, stripping one for money and the other for pleasure. His past is haunted and his future is bleak.
Until her.
Katie Foster is a high school history teacher. Smart, strong, and sexy. She is a woman Marcos shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t touch. Shouldn’t love. He met her in Garnet, a backwards, hick town that’s the last place in the world he wants to be, but he finds himself going back for a taste of the forbidden.
Katie represents all that is good in the world, and Marcos knows he’s nothing but trouble for her perfect life. He fights and he screws. He commits crimes and he breaks the rules. He will never change and he will never escape his gang lifestyle.
Or can he?
What happens when two different people from two very different walks of life risk it all by giving into the passion that threatens to consume both of them? Can a woman who only knows how to play it safe give her heart to a man who lives hard and loves harder?
Will she survive The Viper?

Ay Dios mio!
To be honest, when I first started this book I was not impressed. I found the first chapter to be a bit slow and it just wasn’t catching my interest. But as a book lover and reviewer, I know better than to give up on a story this early, so I kept reading. I AM SOOO GLAD I DID!! OMG I thought I loved motorcycle club guys, but they have nothing on Marcos Rivera the Puerto Rican gang banger. Holy (poop) is this man H-O-T and that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Have you ever started a story and thought, yeah I know how this is going to go, they meet, they are all wrong for each other, they fall in love and happily ever after comes along. THIS IS NOT that story. I was on pins and needles the whole time wondering how this story, immersed in violence, was going to play out. Guess what? I’m not going to tell you. You HAVE to read this book. Hot alpha dudes, hot sex, tension; what the hell’s going to happen next moments, yeah it’s got all of that. My only issue with the story is that in order to make it real, there is a lot of Spanish sayings mixed in, which does add immensely to the feel and flow of the story, but not speaking Spanish I found myself on google a lot. I give this book 5 stars and 4 hands down the pants.
