Review:
     Seize Me is raw and gritty.  It is messy and cruel.  The author's warning in the blurb is justified.  There are some very heavy and disturbing scenes.  There were, however, some very sweet moments, albeit unconventional.  I always enjoy seeing seemingly big tough men brought to their knees by a woman (in more ways than one).

     Winter Belov is running from her past.  Running from her family.  Running from her father who shot and killed the one man she loved right in front of her.  She will never go back.  Not unless she is dead.  Winter settles down on the other side of the country doing the one thing she loves and the one thing that would bring her father shame if he discovered.  She becomes an exotic dancer.  Dancing is something she has always loved doing and being up on the stage helps her drown out the world.  Everything was going OK until she is invited to dance at private party for the president of the Breaknecks.

     Braxxon Breaker is only thirty years old, but he is the president of the MC the Breaknecks.  It isn't a position he expected having at a young age, but with the passing of his father he finds himself running the show.  His crew surprise him with a little show for his thirtieth birthday.  The moment his eyes landed on Winter he knew she had to be his.  Dressed and white with feather angel wings, she was his Angel in hell.

     Braxxon and his lifestyle is the type of situation Winter has tried to avoid for a year.  She doesn't want to live that way again, but there is something about Braxx that calls to her and he refuses to give her up easily.  Winter has stirred something within Braxx that he can't explain.  He can sense she is trying to stay away, but he is too selfish to let her go.  When a rival MC learns of Braxxon's affection for Winter she becomes a target.  Despite his best efforts Braxx is unable to protect her and she is dragged into Hell, changing her forever.

     I have to say I enjoyed seeing Winter's transformation, even if it was hard to witness how that change took place.  Watching as she went from a woman who doesn't take anyone's shit to a total bad ass was great.  From an Angel in Hell to one of Hell's Angels.  The stronger she became the more I liked her.  The harder her attitude turned the more I wanted to see what would happen next.  I loved it!  The passion.  The hate.  The revenge.  The Love.  I like every bit.

     I am looking forward to reading ZZ and Storms story in Withstanding Me and the rest of the Breakneck series.  I am officially a fan of Crystal Spears!

Happy Reading.
