Book Blurb

Whip came to the Gay Riders Carnival fundraiser weekend looking for a good time, but what he found was infinitely better.


Whip always has a good time at the Gay Riders Carnival, and this year he’s hoping to meet up with some studs and top last year’s festivities. The last thing he expects when he walks into his cabin is to be nearly bowled over by a skinny lad with a bruised jaw.

 

Nick came to the Carnival with his so-called Master Dirk, but instead of having a good time, things moved quickly from bad to worse and Dirk responded to his safeword with a punch. Running away and hiding was Nick’s only option.

 

Broke, alone and not entirely sure how he’s going to get home, Nick thinks Whip is a dream come to life and he’s just waiting for the other shoe to drop. For his part, Whip is drawn to the sweet pup and falls hard for Nick over the course of the long weekend.

 

But what’s going to happen when the weekend is over?

 

Book Review

The instant I read the blurb for 'The Biker's Pup', I knew I had to read it. In my opinion, there can't be anything better than a motorcycle club, a long weekend full of leather daddies, hot men, snarky bottoms, and finding love amidst a little BDSM. Oh, yeah. This was definitely right up my alley.

It didn't take long to get a visual of Whip in my head. Six foot seven and three hundred pounds of muscle, riding a Harley, and wearing leather. Yum. Conversely, Nick is smaller, with long, black hair, big blue eyes, wearing some rumpled clothes, and he's got ten dollars to his name. He came down for the weekend with the man he thought was his lover, his master, but who turned out to be a manipulative bastard. Whip figures out pretty quickly that Nick has probably been used, and abused, while just trying to get into a club. Luckily for Nick, Whip doesn't take advantage of people, and he sets out to show Nick what life with a decent Dom can be like.

“I just want…” The words trailed off.
Whip stopped and turned to Nicky. “Go on.”
“It’s nothing.”
“Don’t do that—just tell me what you want.” He hated that Nicky didn’t feel like he mattered, like his words deserved to be heard.
“A place,” Nicky finally finished. “Like somewhere I belong.”
Poor sweet pup."

Honestly? Nick broke my heart. I loved when he said he wasn't a sub because he was desperate; he's a sub, and he's desperate. He can't believe that people like Whip and his friends exist. People who don't expect anything from him, and yet, will still keep him safe and protected. Of course, the smoking hot chemistry he and Whip have isn't hurting Nick's weekend plans, at all. Nick's former "master" really took advantage of his homeless, down on his luck circumstances.

I loved this short story. My biggest complaint? It needs to be longer. I definitely could've kept reading about Whip and Nick, plus the author introduced an excellent secondary character, Trig, who I really hope Sean Michael plans on writing about. Hint. Hint. This is a sexy read, with a sweet love story. Absolutely perfect.
