My rating:
Blurb:The Collapse changed everything. Good men became killers. Strong women became property.And every day turned into a fight for survival.
I once dreamed of becoming a nurse. That dream went up in flames the same day I graduated nursing school, when women were banned from holding any kind of medical license.
Now as an unlicensed medic, I travel what was once the southwestern United States, trading medical services for food, transportation, and shelter with the hopes of reaching Canada.
Because the United States is no more. And the lawless land that’s replaced it is a deadly place for a woman.
My worst fear comes true when I’m captured by the Steel Demons MC, the most ruthless biker gang in the Southwest. These men thrive on the violence and chaos brought on by the Collapse, and they’re eager to unleash it all on me.
It doesn’t even matter that the President’s dog likes me. I’m as good as dead.
Sons of Anarchy meets The Handmaid's Tale in this dystopian reverse harem adventure! This wild ride is not for the faint of heart and contains adult themes that may be triggering.

Ok, so can I say reading this book while feeling like america is heading this way was really freaking weird? I mean, I loved the action and Mariposa’s outlook on her profession and her role as a woman living in a such a volatile world. She wouldn’t turn down helping someone no matter their status. And she wouldn’t heal someone without their consent. In fact consent plays a huge part in this book and the characters speak on it often.
This is an anti-hero book with a very slight hint of paranormal activity with her ‘pulls’, Reaper’s connection with his dog Hades, and Gunner’s bond with his raptor Horus. It’s very few and far between but it is there. And I liked the subtlety of it. I also liked the slow burn and the wind up to the RH. I’ve never read an RH that had a back story for the reasoning behind the RH! THAT was pretty amazing.
And add to that the biker gang aspect and we have like a tri-genre book going on here! I love multi-genre books, it shows a creativeness from the writer that for some reason always surprises me. Not that it should, I mean writers are super-creative but IDK, it just makes me like them more.
