Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club
Bash, Vol 2
Author: Candace Blevins
Rating: 4 Stars
Told in the first person.
Warning: A touch more BDSM, tons of raw kink, blazing hot sex, danger, intrigue, and there might even be a sexy ménage.

Blurb:
Their lives just got complicated, but neither of them are the type to travel the easy road.
Book two of the Bash trilogy…
Will Bud
want to tear Bash to pieces? How is Dawg going to fit into all of this? Will
the Disciples retaliate? And now that the District Attorney is in Angelica’s
life, can she get him out?
Bash may
have claimed her in both wolf and human form, but Angelica isn't likely to just
roll over and show him her belly every time he gives her an order. One night of
incredible sex doesn’t mean the relationship will be smooth sailing. They both
want it to work, though, and they’re both used to getting what they want.

My Thoughts:
This volume picks up where volume one left off. Bash and Angelica are trying to figure out
their new relationship and that’s mostly what this book is about. Then they are testing the waters of bringing
a friend into the relationship. But there’s a character in this book that wants
to upset the balance of the Club. Only you can decide how you feel about that
turn of events. But don’t forget that some
of these people are more than human.
Some may not like the language used by the characters but this stays
true to the first volume. You also don’t
want to start this set with this volume because you will miss too much. I liked the first volume but not as much as
this one. So that just goes to show that
you can’t give up on a series just because you weren’t overwhelmed with how
much you loved the previous book. I thought this story moved more smoothly from
one scene to the next.
What I love about this author is that she doesn’t try to change
who her characters are – they make no excuses.
It’s a story that shows that you can be a smart educated person and
still be biased against a person just because of what you ride/drive and what
you wear. And then if you’re a friend
with such person (s) then you are guilty by association.
Just like in volume one even though this is listed as a paranormal
– shifters and werewolves – it wasn’t all about the shifting. I felt it was more about the Club and the
politics of that Club and where Angelica fits into all of this. With this volume I felt it was an even
distribution of Bash and Angelica’s point of view – more so than the previous
read. And just like the first volume,
the author leaves the ending open ended so if you want to know what happens,
you have no choice but to check out volume three.
Interview questions with Candace Blevins:
What is for you the perfect book hero?
What is for you the perfect book hero?
I don’t think there’s a single description. I’ve fallen in love
with good guys, bad guys, antiheros… I need them to be honest, but otherwise,
I’m not sure you can put the perfect hero into a tidy little box.
When you
start a book, do you already have the whole story in your head or is it built
progressively?
In the beginning I was a total pantser. Now, I’m kind of a
hybrid pantser/planner. I know my characters inside and out before I start, and
I know their backstories, as well as the main events of the book, and the basic
ending. However, if I do much more than that, my muse gets bored. She often
takes the stories in directions I hadn’t intended. We end up at the same
ending, but there are often several fun detours, along the way.
When did
you first consider yourself a writer?
When I got my first decently-sized royalty check.
I used to juggle professionally, and I didn’t consider myself a “professional”
juggler until I made a good bit of money doing so, as well. For some, the fact
they write everyday makes them a writer, and that’s fine for other people, but
it wasn’t real for me until I was holding a check.

Her Safeword Series gives us characters
who happen to have some extreme kinks. Relationships can be difficult enough
without throwing power exchange into the mix, and her books show characters who
care enough about each other to fight to make the relationship work. Each book
in the Safeword series highlights a couple with a different BDSM issue to
resolve.
Her urban fantasy series, Only Human,
gives us a world where weredragons, werewolves, werelions, three different
species of vampires, as well as a variety of other mythological beings exist.
Candace's two paranormal romance
series, The Chattanooga Supernaturals and The Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club,
are both sister series to the Only Human series, and give some secondary
characters their happily ever after.
