Review: Reaper Unleashed (Blue Bandits #1) by Michelle Woods

****3.5 Stars****
 
 
This is an MC story set in the future in the year 2075. A year where the rich stay in a walled community and the rest of society live outside. They don’t use money but instead use credits but still function as a normal world? Reaper is head of the Blue Bandits MC and has a fearsome reputation to uphold. He has a mole in his club and needs to find out who is leaking information to their rival MC club, women are being raped and killed and he needs to get to the bottom of it all to protect his community.
Along comes Sarah with her son Josh who sends Reaper’s head in a spin, especially when she proves to be a feisty little madam. Sarah hasn’t had the best of upbringings and has been left as a single mother trying desperately to find a job. Reaper can’t resist her when she shows up in his strip club looking like a prim and proper lady and totally out of place in amongst the scantily clad women looking for said job but can he resist giving it to her amongst other things?
I really did like this story it was angsty and had a kick ass female lead which is a treat from the normal shy withdrawn woman you normally read about. However I did have a couple of little gripes. The whole futuristic thing I don’t think was needed. It was mentioned briefly in the beginning and apart from money being credits the story read like it was happening today in a normal world. I also wished the author had revisited the storyline from the beginning of the book where Sarah had informed Reaper that someone claiming to be a blue bandit was going around town telling every hiring company not to give her a job. I would liked to have seen an outcome to that. Overall the story was really enjoyable and different to what I had imagined a futuristic story to be.

Reaper Colson has run the Blue Bird Strip Club for the Blue Bandits MC for ten years. He's seen all types of people in and out of his club, but when Sarah Banner walks in he can't seem to find either his balls or his manners. Because she's tying him up in knots and pissing him off to the point when he'd usually say screw it and walk away. Only she's under his skin and walking away might not be an option for him anymore.

Sarah Banner is desperate. She and her son are going to be living in her car if she doesn't find work. Walking into the Blue Bird was the hardest thing she'd ever done, but for her son Josh she'd do anything. Only the owner wasn't what she expected and giving up cardigans for leather skirts is going to be hard. Unleashing Reaper is going to be even harder.
