review 1: 3.75 CrownsBook 1 in the new Wrath MC series I have to say I was really eager to read this book.. As you know this is my genre; throw in a love triangle and I am in book heaven. But would I be floating in memories of men in leather? or would I fall to earth with a thud? time to find out.This book tells the story of Ashley, a girl from a privileged background but also someone that has personal issues. The oldest child and sister to 3 brothers, she has grown up fast and learnt to be tough. Finding herself chucked out of her expensive school and straight into the local public one, she soon catches the eye of Damien, local bad boy and son of the President of the Wrath MC. Ashley though has a long term boyfriend Victor who she has grown up with and is extremely loyal to. Howeve... morer when Victor informs her that he is shipping of over seas to join the military following and placing his best friend Tallon ahead of her, Ashley questions his loyalty to her and decides it might be time to do something for herself and in particular get to know Damien a little better.I am going to stop at this point as this is a very complicated story and it would be very easy to start giving away spoilers. It is a love triangle, but a little different as well with Mob links, family ties and of course a scary MC. So on one hand you have Damien otherwise known as Rage, the biker and all round bad boy and then you have Victor, the rich and seemingly perfect boyfriend. Ashley is no good girl though and all is not what it seems in this set up. What I will say is that not everything is as it seems, loyalties will be tested, mistakes will be made and lies told. Amanda Heath has spun a complex tale, so you will need your head in the game to pick your way through it.I will be honest and say yes I liked this book but I certainly didn't love it. I found it a little over complicated, with too many characters to keep track of. This wasn't helped by an erratic time line, which I will readily admit I'm not a fan of a the best of times. For me it didn't work and confused me further. However my biggest beef was that I felt there was something missing and I soon found out when I looked at the authors back catalogue. This is a new series but a lot of the characters, in particular Ashley's brothers feature in her Make or Break series; I really wished I'd known that going in. Yes, this is a whole new series but the depth the characters lacked and the back stories that I felt were skimmed over were in fact there. If I had known that then I would of read them and I honestly feel that it would have improved my reading experience and thus my rating. I would recommend anyone thinking of 1-clicking this book to consider this before starting Sleepless Nights.I liked the characters that she has created but again because of the amount of personnel and there twisted, complicated and sometimes confusing connections with each other I found it difficult to feel fully emotionally invested in them. I did like Damien and I also found Tallon and Van to be interesting characters, so I certainly will look forward to seeing where she takes their stories or indeed if she pursues them further.So I suppose the big questions will be: Do I recommend it? and will I be reading book 2. I will answer them both with a - YES!; I think that now I know more about the connections and relationships, book 2 will be an easier, less confusing read; In fact I really look forward to reading Ryan and Lola's story. I can't emphasis enough though that you should think about reading the Make or Break series before this book. I will certainly be doing so, and with good ratings I think it will certainly be worth it. I commend Amanda Heath for a good, complex and interesting storyline. I just wished that I had known the characters a little more.
review 2: I am a hugh fan of MC biker book, thats my favorite genre to read, so I was so excited to get my hands on a new one. The synopsis was great and it sucked me in. Thats were that ended. Too much was going on for the book to be so short. You have the mob and the MC and the rich people. It got hard to keep up with everyone. I still dont know who some of the people were. What bothered me the most was how Damien and Ashley's relationship went after Victor came back.(that's all im saying about that) I hated Victor hated him. He was a d**k. This book wasn't even a love triangle book, but the live that Ashley showed Victor got on my nerves. He didn't deserve it. Overall I really wanted to like the book, I really did, cause I loved Damien the moment he opened his mouth. However, so much was going on, I couldn't keep up. This story lined could have been to different stories, we just got one cramped together. Then to add insult to injury you give us bits and pieces of Ryan and Lola's story in this but and they have a HEA but then the author decides to give them there on book? Im confused. Yes, it would be nice to know how they got to were they are now, but I wanted to build up to there happily ever after. I jnowknow it already, i just dont know the details. Who's story I really want next is Chutney's. less
