Winnie thinks she has the perfect life. Two beautiful, healthy children. A police officer husband. A job that she loves. Oh, and let’s not forget that she’s a nationally ranked marathon runner. Fast forward six months, and her perfect life has imploded. Winnie finds herself in a completely new world, and this new world is a brutal bitch. In this new life of hers, her husband is gone. He realizes, at the worst possible time, that he’s no longer in love with her. He’s in love with her best friend. So he leaves, and doesn’t look back. Her sixteen-year-old daughter is in trouble with the law, and she’s barely making ends meet thanks to losing the job that was keeping her and her tiny family afloat. Then, the last thing that could make it all bearable, her running, is ripped out from under her, too. Thanks to a spinal stroke that leaves her unable to walk, let alone run, she’s having to relearn how to do the simplest of tasks—such as putting on her own pants. She’s at the lowest of lows, and the last thing she wants is a sexy, bearded, motorcycle riding alpha to tell her how to live her life. But Steel Cross never asks her what she wants. 

 *** 

 The moment Steel Cross sees Winnie’s daughter steal some shoes for her younger brother, he knows he’s in trouble. He’s a sucker for misunderstood teens. After all, he was once one himself. He knows he can’t just walk away, and the moment he sees that troubled teen’s mother, he doesn’t just know it, he feels it. Down to the very bottom of his soul. With his share of hard knocks, he knows that he shouldn’t step in and make his move on a fellow police officer’s ex. There’s a code, after all, yet he just can’t seem to help himself. He’s done being the good guy. Sometimes he just wants to be bad. And Winnie makes him realize that being bad is still kind of good. As long as you’re with the right person.

Law and Beard is book 8 in The Dixie Wardens Rejects MC Series and I am so happy to finally get Big Papa’s story and I couldn’t get enough of this book.

Winnie is struggling and raising her two kids while healing from a spinal stroke and dealing with a deadbeat ex.  What an awful man he was, and I hated him immediately and that never changed throughout the book.  She has just moved her family into a new house and when she discovers her sexy neighbor, she can’t help but want to know more.

Steel Cross aka Big Papa is the President of the MC and an officer of the law.  Numerous times he saves Winnie’s sixteen-year-old daughter from being arrested and that brings Winnie and Steel together more and more.  They both feel their attraction, but Steel knows Winnie is too young for him and would never make it in his world. Little did he know, she is stronger than he thinks.

I really enjoyed this book because you get past characters and you see how this club is more of a family than anything.  I was dying laughing so many times at Winnie.  She is so cute and quirky and her actions in this book are hilarious.  I love that she doesn’t let the age difference stand in the way of the man she wants.  Big Papa may be hard as nails and one tough biker, but Winnie brings him to his knees and there is nothing he wouldn’t do for her.  I have loved everything about this series, but Big Papa’s book is the one I have been waiting on and it’s well worth the wait!

I’m a married mother of three. My kids are all under 8, so I can assure you that they are a handful. I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us. I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.
