Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway: Rebel (Dead Man's Ink #1) by Callie Hart




Title: Rebel
Series: Dead Man's Ink #1
Author: Callie Hart
Release Date: February 9th, 2015

Synopsis:


Rebel and Sophia's story.

The first of a three part series. This novel contains a small snippet which has already been released in the Owned: An Alpha Anthology, however it is followed by a full story installment.

Sophia

Sometimes, you don't mean to become another person. Sometimes the choice is made for you, and pretending is the only thing that keeps you going. When Alexis Romera is taken and her kidnappers find her fake ID in her purse, she must become Sophia in order to keep her family safe. Revealing her real identity to the man she's sold to would be easy enough, but can she trust him? Hell bent on revenging the murder of his uncle, Rebel doesn't seem all that interested in playing things safe.

In fact, nothing about the secretive, dark and brooding MC president seems safe at all.

Rebel

What do you do when the man who raised you is murdered, and the only witness is kidnapped girl who's being sold as a sex slave? You buy her, of course. As president to the most powerful motorcycle club in America, Rebel isn't lacking in power. There are strings the man can pull, and entire criminal organisations and corporate businesses alike would fall to their knees. However, along with such power comes intense interest. The DEA have their eye fixed solely on the MC...and they're just waiting for Rebel to trip up.

Getting Sophia to testify is the only way to bring the Los Oscuros cartel down. The beautiful, dark haired, dark eyed woman is belligerent and uncooperative and unlikely to bend to his will, but Rebel has a few tricks up his sleeve to make her compliant--he'll charm her until she's bending over backwards to please him.

Of course, falling for her might cause a few hiccups along the way...

Excerpt:

“You gonna sit down or what?”

I sit down. Arguing with him would be futile. We sit there, side by side, staring off down the arrow-straight road, and for a moment I don’t hate him. He pulls a cell phone out of his pocket and taps something into it, and then he turns to face me, frowning slightly.

“You believe in vengeance?”

“You mean like revenge?”

He shakes his head. “Revenge is a selfish act. Retaliation for something. Vengeance is a different thing altogether. It’s about obtaining justice, usually for someone who can’t claim it for themselves.”

This is an odd line of questioning but I decide I’ll bite. Maybe I wouldn’t if he were being a jerk like he was a couple of hours ago, but that’s not what’s happening. He’s pensive, the live wire that apparently runs through him dulled for the moment. “I don’t know,” I say. “Probably, in that case.”

“What if I simplified the question?

What if I say, do you believe in justice?

“Then, yes, I do believe.”





About the Author:



Callie has experienced many changes throughout her life, and gone through many ups and downs that have all worked towards shaping and molding her into the person she is today: fun loving, active, social, and hard working. The only thing that has remained a constant throughout her life is writing. Creating characters who will tear your conscience in two is a favorite pastime of Callie’s. There are few real saints and sinners in her books; more often, the denizens of her stories are all very human. Broken, flawed, and always with the potential for redemption.

Despite the subject matter being markedly hot and heavy in comparison to the stories she wrote in elementary school, there will always be an element of fairytale to her work.

My Review:

Callie Hart is a completely new author for me and I wasn't sure what to expect from this book. I enjoy a good MC book, though and this was was definitely not a disappointment. The story is definitely intriguing and entertaining. The characters are deep and interesting and feel real. I loved getting to know them and read about their story.

Rebel is definitely a delicious and dangerous bad boy. He is definitely not the law abiding citizen that your mother will wish for but he definitely has a good heart. I loved that he will defend his family and loved ones. In that area, they are very alike with Alexis. Even though she looks vulnerable and defenseless, she has quite a strong character. She cannot physically fight all the "bad guys" but she for sure will not give up without a fight. 

The chemistry between Rebel and Alexis (Sophie) is just off the charts. It is quite interesting to see how both of them are fighting against it. Rebel acknowledges it on some level but I loved how Alexis was fighting it but in the end she just couldn't fight it anymore :)

In a few words, I really enjoyed this book. I cannot wait to see what will happen next with Rebel and Alexis and how they will overcome all the difficulties thrown their way. I definitely recommend this book, especially to all lovers of MC books :)
