I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "TAKEN BY THE MC" This was just an OK read for me I usually love MC Romance but this was more about sex and humiliating Harmony as she had to service the men on her knees because of her mother to pay off the debt for getting involved with the Mexican Mafia and the local drug dealers. There really wasn't much of a storyline that was very interesting and the characters were just so so like I said it was just OK would I recommend this book everyone has their own opinion you might like it to me it could have been much better.

"Taken By The MC" was all about sex and porn. I didn't feel anything for the people in this one because I didn't know the characters in the book. From the beginning of the story, Harmony working on her knees for the MC to work off her mom's debt was a bit of a stretch for me. It started from the first page and continued throughout the book. I love sex in my books, but only if there is a plotline to go with it. The last two or three chapters had the most character development, with some explanations, and was the best part of the book. It showed a bit of humanity for all involved. I really wanted to like this book, and hope that the next book in the series will have more connections and character development, so the reader can feel something for those involved in the story. I would like to thank NetGalley and the publishers for gifting me "Taken By The MC". My opinion is my own. This is mine. 2 Stars!

Based on the description of the book you know immediately that there's going to be tons of sex, however I was not prepared for essentially a book of porn. That is what this book read like for me. Very little story line; Harmony jumps all too easily to have to work off her mother's debt rather than argue (like any sane person would) that she doesn't owe the debt or that there are other ways she could pay the debt back. With no connection or background, the sex begins and doesn't stop. They degrade and humiliate her on a constant basis. While she seems to enjoy this, I couldn't wrap my head around it.

I love MC books and this one was really good. Will definitely be reading more by this author.

Triggers abound, however, if you can take the rough stuff, there is a very sexy and interesting story to behold!

Taken by the MC was a intriguing short, dirty, sexy read. I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end. I was hooked right from the blurb. It tells you what Harmony must do to keep them both breathing, She'll work off the debt—on her knees. A slave to the MC. If you are looking for something with a little more of an dark edge along with some submission than i recommend this book. I can't wait to read more from this author. I voluntarily read an arc thru netgallery.

I am voluntarily reviewing this book provided from Netgalley. There was a warning in the blurb and I have read some very explicit books but this one was extremely explicit. The writing and storyline was good, however I did find it hard to not finish it, even though some situations were hard to read, I had to see where the writer was going with it.

Submission and sex…if that is what you are looking for look no further. Harmony was paying off her mother’s debt to the local MC the Penetrators on her knees, her stomach and on her back. Yep, you get the picture. It was a very quick, hot read but don’t be expecting an in depth character build up. If you can live with that then this book is for you. It was full of some very dirty scenes that will leave you needing a cold shower before all is said and done.

I received this book as an ARC from NetGalley for a freely given and honest review.

Not the book for me. Hurtful and painful and something about her enjoyment during this time just seems off and unbelievable. You can't relate to the characters and it is so over the top nasty could not finish this book.

Super short and very erotic. Hopefully the next parts of the books will release soon.

So I found this book by trolling NetGalley and well it sounded pretty decent so I thought what the hey, I'll give this author a shot.

Let me tell you, if you want something risque, with lots of dirty nasty sex, then this book is for you. The flood gates will open once you read this jewel.

I'd you like Alexa Riley, Jenika Snow or even Aria Cole, then be prepared to blush your way through this book.

I absolutely loved this book.

I don't mind gritty MC stories. I do not mind f/m/m/m/ etc. I do not mind alpha asshole heroes.

However, here it was more sex than story and certainly no romance. And the men, were offensive and disrespectful. Not on a "oh the heroine really wants it" Just derogatory. Really did not like the heroines mother having been with one of the main men.

Not for me in the end, DNF.

This is a fast paced read and is off the charts hot. I liked the characters as well as the story. Looking forward to more in the series.

I had a hard time with this book, the opinion Harm had of herself was a little hard to take. I would have liked a little more story then just all sex. I would like to know what happens to her and I want to read the next book even with struggling to get through this one.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Net Galley

I'm having a hard time rating this book. It's totally a guilty pleasure. Is it well written? Pretty much. Is there character development? Not really. Is it believable? No. Is the plot interesting? Kinda. Was it hot? Definitely. This book had plenty of dubious consent, BDSM, pain/humiliation, exhibitionism, and multiple partners. If that isn't your thing, don't read this. Fine literature, no. Steamy , yes.

COPY RECEIVED THROUGH NETGALLEY FOR REVIEW
There was more sex than story which is not surprising since Harmony willing works off a debt to the MC that her mom incurred by stealing from them. In most books this would be a bad thing, however, it is Harmony's secret fantasy. It worked for her so I can't judge her. The book could have used a little more story and it will continued in more"pieces". If you are looking for a short erotic read with multiple partners, then this is a definite win for you.

I received this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

My first issue with this book is that I don't think it is a standalone book. When I read a book I want to read the WHOLE story. Since I committed myself, I finished the story.

Harmony is a young woman who has been neglected all her life by her junkie mother. She has been in survival mode her whole life, I'm not even sure she even knows what would make her happy. She always had a "thing" for a couple of the guys from the local MC. It just so happens that her mother had a brief sexual relationship with the President of the MC, one of the men Harmony has the hots for.

Now Harmony's mother has ripped off the MC for a lot of money and they're looking for her mom...

They decide that Harmony can "work" off her mothers debt...oh, and they happened to read her journal which is filled with her fantasies...

This story is very erotic with BDSM, which I don't mind but...and I say BUT it just felt like it was 1 big Orgie to me, if there was any story then it was basically what I mentioned previously. The writing is good but I needed a story! Maybe if it were a whole book in my mind, I could of gotten into it more. What woman aspires to be a club w****, no wait, a club w**** may actually have some say..., for the rest of her life?

As I said the author does write well, she just needs a story...

The blurb clearly tells us 'she'll work off the debt—on her knees. A slave to the MC' so I really should not have been surprised when I started reading but still I was.
Now I like a hot read and a strong alpha male although I generally like more balance, enough story to hold the sex together, here there's a little story and tons and tons of sex.
I liked the start of this but as it progressed it became a little too much for me, I want to say it was degrading and awful but Harmony wanted and craved everything that was done to her.
This book is probably about 80% sex and it's hot but about half way in I'd decided it wasn't for me. I was also nervous that the MC had a guy named Fist and yes it looks to be heading where you'd expect.
I also wasn't happy that Harmony is having sex with the whole MC including the same guy that's been with her mother for years. I mean seriously what on earth is wrong with him, her mother is a complete bitch.
So like I said I'd decided it wasn't for me but I'd finish it anyway after all it wasn't a bad read just out of balance for me and a little out of my comfort zone if I'm being honest but then without realising it I found I was actually enjoying it, there was more here than I originally thought and after the supermarket scene I wanted to continue on.

If you're looking for a smoking hot read where the h gets off on being used and abused then this could be for you. Even though that's not my kink I found enough potential for me to want to continue on and see where it goes.

I voluntarily read a review copy kindly provided by NetGalley and CrushStar Multimedia LLC.

Hot and steamy!
It was a good read if you are just wanting a book with lots of sex. I would have liked for there to have been more of a story though.
