Zag has been my favorite but I think Tank has knocked him down to 2nd place. I loved Tank! I also love that the author is keeping this MC series a safe read for us readers who aren't a fan of cheating or mistreatment of women. She did however, throw a wrench into this book. Nothing against the main characters, but it still made me cry. Besides that the only thing I didn't care for was the couples need to keep things from going serious at first. They stayed loyal to each other, but was in complete denial for the first half of the book. Once they got over that bull, I truly enjoyed this couple together. I'm glad the author gave us time with them together and happy instead of it being rushed at the end. I can't decide who I want her to write about next...Axle or Bam Bam.

Shawn "Tank" Hudson knew better than to get involved with a woman like Nicole Walker. From every comment she'd made since her best friends got together with his brothers Zag and Reb, she was no biker bitch and she despised bikers as a rule. But she was hot and sexy and her body begged for his attention. Tank was an ex-Marine with a body made for sin. Nic wasn’t blind, she knew he was built like a brick house and pleasure was his middle name, but she couldn’t go there. As much as she wanted him, being with a biker went against everything she stood for. Too much history. Too much hurt. But when attraction won them over, one night just wasn’t enough. One night turned into two. Two into three. And texts became their norm. Then the past came back to haunt her and when her horrid past became a risk for her friends and the family she learned to love, Tank became the only man that could save her. Resilient is a story about falling in love for the most unlikely partner. It's about family, friends and the demons that can destroy happiness if not confronted head on. Tank is hot, sexy and loyal. He is everything Nicole wants and didn’t know she needed. With enough tenderness to rock her world, Tank will change Nic's perception of everything around her. Resilient is the third installment of Gillian Archer's biker series. It is hot, intense and will make you both laugh and cry.

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger, should be both Tanks and Nicole's mantra.
Nicole doesn't want anyone to know the truth about her childhood. If her friends knew she could loose them. It doesn't stop Tank from needing to get closer to her. Not wanting, I think he truly needs her in his life. That's what made this book so special, the obvious love that all of the men have for their women.

Nicole decides she doesn't want anything to do with bikers after a bad experience with her father who was a biker, but then she met Tank. The two can't help but be drawn to each other. This was a great read. The connection between the characters is steamy hot.

The 3rd book from the True Brother MC Series. This is the first one I have read out of the 3 and also this author is new to me.
Although this book is part of a series, I didn't feel like I was missing anything because of the mention/participation of the other characters. Nicole is smart, educated, and has a snarky attitude and bff to Jessica the bridezilla. Tank is their protector/bodyguard, tough and all alpha male on the outside, but sweet and lovable inside. Opposites attract, but put them together they make fireworks (Spoiler: there are plenty of hot sex scenes).
I really like this book, I just wish that there was more about Tank's background on how he became a biker and his relationship with his family and ex-wife. Towards the end the chemistry of the main characters fizzled and felt like it was rushed. Nevertheless, I still like the book and I'm actually checking if the library and/or bookstore have the first two books in this series (perhaps the previous books have more information about Tank?).
So with this being said, would I recommend this book? My answer is yes!

Tank and Nicole are fabulous together in this book the chemistry between them is explosive. Hoping to read more!

This is a must read series for me, I love the True Brothers MC series.
Whew, this a one hell of a story. Passion, suspense, and trying to escape from your past, and damn sexy.

I've read all the True Brothers books and this one is by far the weakest. There wasn't too much of a storyline and the action came way at the end. Also it wasn't much of a surprise. The main reason I had issues was because of Nicole. She was such an unlikeable character and focused only on herself and her problems. Tank was a bit better and he definitely could hold his own against Nicole but he felt a bit flat. The whole Bridezilla thing didn't make sense with Jessica's character. It was still worth a read esp if the series is going to be continued.

Gillian Archer will not leave you disappointed . The chemistry between Nicole and Tank sizzles off the pages .

Tank and Nicole skirt around each other for many months. He is intrigued by her spit and fire. Nicole is dead set against bikers and has her reasons, which remain a secret to her friends. Their friends are getting married so the two are thrown together quite a bit in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Nicole is hot/cold towards Tank and he finds it adorable. He likes her fired up and is intrigued as to what she would be like between the sheets.
Nicole, after some prodding, propositions Tank and off they go on their bumpy road of their relationship. One night was all it was supposed to be but both find they want more. We get a deeper look at Nicole and I totally understood her skewed view about bikers. She did project her past onto the True Brothers MC and it took a while for her to see that they were not the same. She gets blindsided when her past comes back to haunt her and she is left reeling.
Tank and Nicole find kindred spirits in each other. Each has baggage and they try to keep it from others. Both realize that they can vent to one another and not get judged. It helped propel their relationship and was nice to see. I did like how Tank would try his best to make amends when he screwed up and saw more in Nicole than even her best friends did. Both find solace in each other. When tragedy strikes, they both have to decide whether to stay together or let guilt tear them apart.
I read the first book in this series and liked this one more. I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley for an honest review.

This biker series is among one of my favorites. Fantastic story about Tank and Nicole. Well written with great characters. The story was fast paced and one you won't be able to put down. Almost think this was my favorite so far. I can only hope there are more to come. Definitely recommend this book.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Net Galley and Loveswept

3 stars for Risilient by Gillian Archer
ARC (unedited) provided by Netgalley for an honest, unbiased review.
This is the first book I've read in this series, and while I liked it well enough, it wasn't something I find myself wanting to revisit in order to read the rest of the series. As an aside, I struggle to really get into biker books anyway, so that may have some bearing on my enjoyment of the book.
The main characters, Tank and Nicole, are interesting, and I especially liked how feisty and snarky Nicole was at the beginning. However, I found little plot points within the story that didn't quite add up, so I lost the motivation to finish about 60% of the way through. I managed to stay with it though, and finished it off. The climax of the story felt rushed, but I liked how the author wrapped up the main characters' love story.
Definitely worth reading but I don't know how invested I am to continue with any of the other books in the series. I think I'll try one more and see if the writing style and storyline is enough to hook me.

2.5 slightly confused, kinda disappointed stars. Good solid start but followed by a muddled middle, interrupted with a crazysauce twist, then fizzled to a weak ending. I'm new to the series, and was intrigued by Tank and Nicole's sexually charged connection from the start. Both Tank and Nicole claimed they were just going to be "one and done" with each other because they weren't relationship type people, and, well, we just know how that ends in Romancelandia.
Tank is the kind of biker whose story I enjoy the most; the kind that falls hard. Almost against his will, Tank goes straight from wedding hookup to claiming Nicole with a caveman "Mine!". The problem was that Nicole was so wrapped up in her own issues that she didn't really connect well with Tank or anyone else in the True Brothers-verse.
Once Nicole's mysterious history catches up to the brotherhood, I expected her to reveal some inner strength to Tank, her friends, and the brotherhood. Instead, Nicole dissolved into some kind of self-absorbed, juvenile catatonic funk that required just about every character in the book bending over backwards to convince Nicole that it wasn't her fault. It was exasperating.
From this book, the True Brothers and their women seem to be a strongly connected group, a la Kristen Ashley's alphas. Too bad that Nicole just didn't seem to deserve to be part of it. I strongly suspected that the other brothers' stories were a far better way to dive into this world.

Tank has come a long way from the first book in this series. His the type of character that what to give a hug too. The first time you meet you don't know if he's going to be a good guy, or if he is going to be a creeper.
Nicole starts off like a judgemental, up tight girl. She is far from it. Just her past that makes her judgemental and for a good right too.
The book did get me to cry at the end, but felt it ended to abrupt for the couple.

I haven't read this series but I didn't have problem with this one! It was really good and if you like sexy bikers then this is perfect!!

This was just an okay read for me. I was curious at first about what reason they had to build the walls they did. You can feel the sexual tension between these two. The sex was hot. There were times that the two friends did not come off that great to me. The heroine and us, the readers, were supposed to excuse the nasty Bridezilla behavior going on, but the heroine was just being a witch and needed to change her attitude or else. I really didn't like the girlfriends. She let it go for them, but they did not return that sentiment. They didn't really try to understand why she acted the way she did. You could feel that this couple were a good fit. They both saw deeper beneath the facade shown to everyone. They had some bumps in the road, but they got their HEA. I didn't like their story as much as I did the other two, but it was an enjoyable read.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

Bad-boy biker, Tank, is a handsome, brooding man who has secrets in his past that keep him from any romantic commitment. There is a high profile wedding happening soon in the True Brothers MC and Nicole Walker is attending the festivities when she notices Tank. Nicole is a college educated beauty who has secrets of her own and a "one night only" limit in her liaison department. Tank sees her as a "forever type" girl that needs a commitment that he's not willing to give. The story revolves around their relationship.
Gillian Archer scores again in the third "True Brothers MC" installment. I have to confess that I am not the typical reader of "biker romance/biker fiction". In fact, I've never read any other author but Gillian Archer! BUT, this is the second book that I've read in the series! I love it and I love Gillian Archer, the author! Deep reoccurring characters, complex situations, spicy sexual encounters and excellent writing give this book a big five star rating!
Resilient by Gillian Archer will be available July 11, 2017 by Loveswept, an imprint of Penguin Random House Publishers. An egalley of this book was made available by the publisher in exchange for a honest review.

I love this book and this series. I feel like it gets better and better with each book. I had been looking forward to reading about Tank. He doesn't want to get involved with Nicole because he feels that she is a forever type of girl with a hint of snooty and sees her disdain for his biker brothers. However he can't seem to stop thinking about her the more he sees her. Nicole ends up coming on to him and tells him they should hook up...one and done. However they both seem to keep coming together until they finally realize they are in a relationship with each other. I like how they both have pasts that make them fearful of love and how they both feel they don't deserve the other.

True Brothers don't dissapoint. This was a badass, hot and steamy read. Tank and Nicole were perfect for each other. I can't wait for more!

Nicole Walker wants nothing more than to attend her best friend’s wedding. Growing up with a deadbeat dad, she has labeled all men the same and is determined to stay away from all things “bad-boy”. If only she could stay away from Tank. Protective of his MC, he thinks that Nicole is nothing but a goody two-shoes. However, one explosive night turns into another, and another. Soon, Nicole and Tank find that they can’t keep their hands or bodies to themselves.
Verdict: This is the third book in Gillian Archer’s “True Brothers MC” series. As an enjoyable read, Nicole and Tank will take you on a ride filled with ups and downs. They are the couple that doesn’t want to admit they are a couple, and will do everything but commit. I think the book had it right when, one and done, became two, which turned into three, then flee; and so on and so forth. Only there was no fleeing, just a progressively deeper intimate relationship between Nicole and Tank. I would have loved to have seen some more in-depth background on Tank. We get that he was in the military and that he required a service dog, who is now ancient and blind, but we don’t get much more than that. Overall, this was a great read and an awesome continuation of well-done series.
