After finishing the first book in this series, I KNEW that this was going to be one I had to keep an eye out for. I'm sooooooo happy I was persistent, because this second book DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!!!

First let me start by saying that although this is the second installment, it "could" be read as a standalone, but I don't recommend it. There are a few times that knowing the history actually helps with following the story line.

Maya left the Red Dragon's and her mother a long time again. Once she realized that living outside the club meant freedom, she moved to California and never looked back. In fact, she rarely even spoke with her mom. But after getting hit with the double middle finger (losing her job and apartment on the same day), maybe contacting her mom isn't such a bad idea....

Sebastian is dead. Ok, a little dramatic. Sebastian, the young skinny kid who fell in love with a girl who didn't want him is dead. He's now known as Slade and is one of the top dogs within the Red Dragon's MC. Now that the club has to watch their backs due to some backlash, the President of the club (also a father figure to Slade) is sending him to California to bring the President's niece home for safety. Too bad that's the last person on earth he wants to see. Because it means that Sebastian may not be so dead after all.

Without giving too much away, this book has pretty much everything you'll need in a MC book. Anticipation, lust, lie, betrayal and of course, the romance. This author does an amazing job at pulling us in and falling for each and every character within the book. Even the bad guys. I was so engrossed with this book, that I literally did NOT put it down. And I can't wait for the next one!!!!

This is the second Red Dragon MC book in the series and the second that I have read. It works as a standalone novel, but this is a series where the previous (and future I assume) characters do feature in some capacity in all of the books.
This time the story focuses on Maya, who has left the world of Motorcycle clubs behind but is in danger. Her uncle wants her to come home for her own safety after the Red Dragon's come under threat from an ex-member and rival club. Slade, a man she had known well before he became a Red Dragon and changed his name is tasked with bringing her home. There's huge chemistry between them, but she doesn't recognise him from before.
The chemistry between the two main characters was good. I thought that Slade/Sebastian was a bit overbearing at times and needed to get over himself a bit, but Maya gave as good as she got. They seemed to be well-matched and I liked the romance that developed between them.
As I mentioned at the start, this does work as a stand-alone novel, but there is an over-arcing storyline that ties the books together. Clearly, there is more to come for the Red Dragon's based on the events in this book and while our main characters do get their happily ever after, things are far from all rosy for the Red Dragons.
I really enjoyed this instalment of the series and would be keen to read the next. I'm not sure as yet who it is likely to feature as there are a couple of candidates, but I think it might possibly be Archer.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Her Rough Ride is book 2 in the Red Dragon MC series and this book doesn't disappoint. Maya and Slade have quite the history with each other and the broken hearts to prove it. It starts out as a series of unfortunate events and turns into a whole lot of truths. I'm excited to see where this series is headed.

I'm such an MC book fan and this one is really good. I loved the story behind this one enjoyed every single second. Grab some tissues because you just might need them.

I received an arc from NetGalley and this is my honest opinion. Once I started this book I could not put it down. The tension between Slade and Maya will pull you in and keep you glued to the book.

A great MC romance and story of second chances.

I thought that this story was really enjoyable, having read the previous book in this series I couldn't wait to get started on this one!

The character were really well developed and well suited and that made the story a very enjoyable read. The only downside for me was that I thought in places there was a little too much detail and it detracted from what was otherwise an excellent flow to the story.

It is 4 stars from me, highly recommended and can't wait to see what she releases next!

A big thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. First time reading this author. This is a series and the second. I have not read the first. It reads well as a stand alone, but I may gain some understanding of the club and characters by reading the first. I have to admit, I know absolutely nothing about motorcycle clubs I rarely read them because of the crime element. I don't understand the crime element so and so I can relate to Maya not wanting to be involved w the club. The chemistry between Slade/Sebastian and Maya is intense. There is surprisingly not a ton of sex. I found this to be an interesting read. I liked both Maya and Slade, and hopefully they will communicate better. I give this 3.5 stars.

I received an arc copy of this book from NetGalley for my honest review. Slade and Maya’s story is book two in the Red Dragon MC series and while you don’t have to read book one you will get a greater understanding if you do. Slade just received the worst order from his president, retrieve Maya the wayward niece of the president and bring her home so she can be safe from the MC drama. Unfortunately Slade has a lot of residual anger toward Maya from years ago when she left him and going home is the last thing that Maya wants to do. Along the way there’s a lot of snarky humor and sexual tension all while fighting a snow storm and MC drama. This book is a little more gritty than the first with lots of heat but the relationship between the two leads still seemed a bit strained. 4 stars

I received an ARC on this from NetGalley. I was so excited to see this book up for request! I read book 1 and was silenty waiting for book 2. and now i will suffer in silence and hope there are more stories to be told about this MC. I love the men in the story as well as the strong women. Kudos to the author

Rough Ride pulled me into the story. Slade and Maya had us on quite the ride to see them get their HEA. Slade and Maya definitely had to work for their happy ending. This was a nice read.

This is the second book in the series and I really think that you should start from the beginning because the secondary characters were not only a part of the first book but it is part of this story. We have Slade who turned into that name in his MC because Maya had broken his heart. He is tasked with picking her up and bringing her back to the MC. Maya was instantly in lust with Slade and he reminded her a lot of Hawk (first story) but she knew that Hawk did not have a brother so was he. She really did not want to return to the MC because she has had really bad impression of them. Her father belonged to one and treated her mother and her like a slave. Reluctantly she really has no choice but to go with Slade but is trying to break down his barriers and she finds out that this is Sebastian the boy who she spent time with growing up and eventually fell in love with, but she treated bad. They bicker back and forth then give in to their sexual desires but then both of them start with the I love you but can't be with you. We have some tragedy some heartbreak and eventually some happiness. I want Archer's book!!

Heather Van Fleet has done it again!!! Her Rough Ride is the second installment in the Red Dragon MC series and if you haven’t already, definitely check out this series!

Her Rough Ride centers around Sebastian/Slade and Maya and from the moment I started this book I was “all in”!! I loved the that it was a second chance romance(ish) mixed up with the enemies to lovers premise!! The chemistry between the two was electric and there was the perfect amount of steam with a side of sass!! I thought Heather Van Fleet did a fantastic job with the pacing of this addictive novel- I literally flew through it in record time! Her Rough Ride is a 4.5 star gem that I highly recommend! I’m so excited for the next installment in this must read series!!

Planes, Automobiles, Trains, more Automobiles and some Harley’s

Good MC story about a girl, Maya who escapes with her mother from her Father’s MC where they were abused and ends up at her Uncles MC. It is hard for her to trust it will be different, but she makes friends and spends her nights with Sebastian, who falls in love with her. He is smart and she asks him to tell her stories of the Greek gods as she falls asleep in his arms to escape her nightmares. However during the day, she acts as if she doesn’t know him and hangs out with his cousin Hawk.

Till one day Something happens and she goes away, breaking his heart. Sebastian becomes a prospect and his name becomes Slade. He loses all traces of his former self, he becomes hard and a killer. Years later the MC is having trouble when an old foe is out to get them and teams up with Maya’s father which puts her in danger, so Slade has to fly out to San Diego and bring her back to Chicago to the MC compound for her own safety.

After arriving to get Maya, she doesn’t recognize Slade as Sebastian because he has grown in size and muscle mass, as well as acquiring a few scars and tattoos. After leaving on the plane, it lands halfway to Chicago due to a snowstorm, at which time they have to find alternate means to get back. It is pretty much as my heading states. The old principal where if something can go wrong, it will.

I was a bit disappointed in the romance on this one as it was pretty slow and not as steamy as it could be for an MC romance. But it wasn’t bad. Though the storyline was good and I was rooting for them to get together.

Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I absolutely loved Slade.
No matter what he did i couldn't hate him.
He was so different.
Sorry i just had to get that out there first.
The whole story was great!
I understood Maya's reservations about the Red Dragons. She had every right to be the way she was and stay away.
I loved that we got to see Summer and Niyol again too!
I loved the whole second chance aspect to it aswell, they are one of my weaknesses.
Lets go back to Slade shall we?
Jesus i can't get enough of him, he buried his real self under the big scary biker looking guy but when he's around Maya he has to try double hard to make sure she can see the guy he use to be. I loved both sides of him, the before the biker and the big bad biker himself.
Maya was great too! (We can't make it all about Slade i guess)
She had her strengths and weaknesses like everyone but i still really liked her, she didn't let anyone walk over her so that's a plus!
I'm excited to see where this series will go!
My second book by Heather and it was just as amazing as i knew it would be!

❤

Maya has some balls of steel and Slade doesn't know what to do qith them, "and easier my ***. She slammed the door in my face and left me in the hall.” Girl sure is feisty, “you follow me, I’ll cut your balls off when you sleep.” I liked this book, I loved Slade.

This ARC was courtesy of netgalley - all thoughts and opinions are mine and unbiased

This is the second book of a series but I don't feel I have missed out by not reading the first book - this is good as a standalone

I really enjoyed this and will now seek out the others in the series to find out what happens to others in the MC

Highly recommend

Maya was a girl who had dreams of something besides the MC. Sebastian AKA Slade is a member of the RD MC.. As a teen he had dreams of gods and the love of a girl who listened to his stories of thos gods. They find that grown up life is not made up of fairytales but full of danger and heartache. Can they regain the love they once had?

I read this book as an arc from NetGalley

Sebastian and Maya met years ago as teens living the MC life even though neither one of them wanted to be there. One day Maya leaves and Sebastian eventually becomes Slade, a full member of the Red Dragon MC. Years later, Maya is in danger and Slade has to bring her back to the clubhouse to protect her. Even though he's angry at her for leaving abruptly, he's never stopped loving her. Maya feels the same but club life is hard for a woman. When rival gangs attack the Red Dragons Maya and Slade realize that they have to make a decision about their lives. Enjoyable MC romance.

Wow! What a sizzler. This was such a great read. I was interested in their story from start to finish. I can’t wait to read more in this series. Definitely recommend.

Who doesn’t love a tattoo biker?? It’s a well written story about love and loss. Definitely a good one you need to add to your reading list.
