Whiskey Throttle (Moto X Series Book 6) by Brooke May is a great contemporary Romance series

Parker Bartin appears to be a man who has it all to anyone who looks at him. The family, the wealth, and the celebrity to round out his universe. However, Parker’s life is not at all ideal. He’s gone absolutely insane, just as lost as his sister Paige, from when he was a party animal, drowning himself to cope with the tragedies of his past in a very different way. Parker ignores what is going on in front of him as he tries and fails to be what he believes he needs to be. He is in danger of losing everything, including his lucrative work, his freedom to pursue his interests, and his partner with whom he spends every evening.

Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. The story really brings us into their world. I couldn’t put the book down.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book six in The Moto X series, although I would bet it is best to read them in order, and If they are all this good then you definitely should. I did read this as a standalone and did fine. Yet I will be reading the others because I liked it so much.
This is Parker’s story, whom you will find to be a complex dark kinda guy, yet very intriguing. It is a very thought-provoking story so full of emotion (maybe some triggers) as Parker rises up from rock bottom. A very well written contemporary romance with motorcross, fast paced, great characters, heartache, drama and second chances. Definitely grab this book. You won’t be disappointed.

Parker has been living life in the fast lane as a well known motocross racer. He has been living like a rock star if you will. All of the partying has been his way of coping with his PTSD and it hasn’t worked. Even though he thought he was doing everything in his power to be a good partner to Megan and a good father to Lindsey, but it wasn’t enough. Megan has had enough. She packs up Lindsey and all of their belongings and leaves. Parker has finally hit rock bottom and decides that he needs to get his life together. If not for himself then for his little family. Will he be able to face his past and work through his trauma? Will he be able to get Megan to come back to him? This book is a bit different than the other work I have read by this author, but it was good. I came into this series halfway through with this book and feel it can be read as a standalone. I will be going back to read the others so I can get a better feel for the series as well as any recurring characters. Even if you don’t want to read the series as a whole I do recommend this book as it was good on its own.

Whiskey Throttle (Moto X Book 6)

What a perfect end to this series. I loved that we got to go on this journey with Parker as he tries to figure everything in his life out.

Parker has PTSD from his childhood and has no idea how to get passed it and recover. Paige and others have pushed him towards getting help, but he wasn’t able to make that step until he hit his rock bottom. He does it in true Parker fashion and it is a huge wake up call to him.

While his love life is involved, this book is so much more than a romance. This book is more about healing and recovery which could help someone if they happen to read it.

I have read several books by Ms. May over the years, have enjoyed them all but this one touched me in a way I wasn’t expecting and I love it.

This book gripped me from the Prologue! I don’t think I’ve ever read a book that hooked me that quickly, so I knew I was in for an incredible ride. This is the sixth book in the Moto X series, but I read it as a standalone and think it did well. Of course, I am going to pick up ALL of the previous books now because I need more. A lot more. Our main character Parker is one complex and intriguing guy. The trauma that is haunting him will be dealt with one way or another. Will he be able to confront his demons and come out on the other side for his family, or will the darkness end up taking everything from him? I couldn’t put this book down and read it in one sitting. I highly recommend picking this up if you’re looking for a captivating contemporary romance with a lot of intense emotion!

Whiskey Throttle is the 6th book in the Moto X series, by Brooke May. This is the first book I have read in this series and wish I had started at the beginning as I think it would have made the book more readable for me, I will go back and read the others. I have, however, read books by this author before so knew before I started that it was going to be good. This book follows Parker as he realises that the life he was living wasn’t the life that he wanted and he needs to make some serious changes in order to regain his family before they are lost forever. This book was a real page-turner as I wanted to find out what happened next. Would recommend.

Parker appears to have everything a motocross rider could want to have, women, money, drugs. But it isn’t the party it seems as Parker is hiding his past trauma. When Megan, the FMC, becomes pregnant and delivers a baby girl, Parker starts trying to deal with the past. But will the pressure of fatherhood and unhealed trauma cause Parker to spiral too far out of control or can he pull back before he looses everything and everyone he loves? This was book 6 of this series but you don’t have to read the first 5 to be able to read this. Great story line.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A story about man’s rise out of rock bottom. Whiskey Throttle has a lot going on. The author gives you a story of a man’s struggle and how he loses everything. It’s the growth through the story though that makes it. Nothing short of a good book. I’ve read quite a few books by this author and she’s one of my favorites. An author that no matter what the story is, I will always dive in just from seeing the name.
I was skeptical at first when I read the prologue. About what I was actually getting myself into, but I push forward anyway. Heavy topics of abuse are the minor storyline behind Parker’s alcohol abuse. He thought he was doing what he needed to be a good partner and father, but when Megan left him it all fell apart. Her and Lindsey were the light in his life. And now that they are gone he is consumed by darkness. When he ends up with a DUI it’s the final straw that wakes him up. That rock bottom makes him realize he needs to change not only for himself, but if he has any hope of getting his family back.
What steps will Parker take to change?
Does he succeed and get Megan to come back to him?
I can relate to Parker in so many ways. As I’ve hit my own rock bottom, but under different circumstances. But the results are all the same as long as you make an effort to better yourself for you. This book can be one big trigger warning. So be mindful going into it. It’s definitely worth it, just don’t take the story lightly. As it’s one a lot of people can relate with but could also trigger their own ptsd as well.

Whiskey Throttle is Book 6 in the Moto X series…and I love this series and recommend reading from the beginning, but can I say….this story was heart-wrenching and intense…the emotions on this of how I feel…when you have everything right in front of you…until you could lose it all in a flash. This is the story of Parker Bartin….and it was one heck of a ride…

Megan and Parker bring a beautiful little girl in the world and all Parker wants to do is be the best father he can be. With past trauma that haunts him….and not dealing with them…things spiral downhill. As this happens, he is on the verge to lose everything including Megan and their daughter. Will Parker be able to over come what haunts him and make way to getting the assistance he needs to be better….

This is a great read….wow…..my heart over this story…..

It has been a while since I have read any of the books in this series and this book did a fantastic job at reminding me just how much I enjoyed it. I instantly connected to this story and loved getting to know the characters. I was drawn to Parker with ease and I wanted to see how things would turn out.
The story is an interesting one that develop naturally as it progressed. This author has a writing style that I always enjoy and this book, and series, is a big part of why. I would definitely recommend this book.

Whiskey Throttle is the sixth and final book in the Moto X series by Brooke May. It is a heart-strumming contemporary romance- with motorcross, emotion, broken characters, chemistry, drama, second chances, character growth & development, banter, tension, angst, heartache, and more…
Even though this could be read as a standalone, being the sixth and final book in the series, as well as the fact that we have ‘met’ Parker in previous books (he is Paige’s twin brother/Paige (&Axle) got her story in Books #1 – 3) I really recommend reading the whole series so you get the optimum reading experience out of this story, and the series as a whole. Plus, you just might find that one book won’t be enough to satisfy your newly acquired Moto X appetite.

I’m curious to see what Ms. May might have for us next!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, Brooke May!

This is a series that I have enjoyed reading from the first book. It is a series that just keeps getting better and better with each book. This is the sixth book which I highly suggest reading the previous books as well as they are just as great. I enjoyed this author and never hesitate to pick up one of her books. I enjoy her ability to pull me into the character’s world with ease and keep me turning pages to the end. This book is no different. It is a well written story about how far you will go to get away from your past traumas. But what will happen when that is what could take everything away? When a choice is to be made, what will Parker decide to do? I enjoyed these characters and what they bring to the story. Parker is my favorite and he is a strong character but like everything else, he has a weakness. What happens with him is something you don’t want to miss. I found this story to be fast paced and hard to put down. There is great growth throughout the story which makes it easy to read as well as entertaining. I really enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.

Parker was a legend, until he wasn’t. He was once at the top of his game, until he wasn’t. He might look like he was dealing with his past, but he wasn’t. He is a hot mess.
In Brooke’s typical way Whiskey Throttle explodes onto the scene. I have fallen in love with the Moto X series. It is full of drama and angst. It is hot, steamy and sexy. The characters are complex bad boys and sassy girls, all love the same thing, fast bikes in the Motorcross world. Characters that make you hope beyond all hope and fall in love with them.
Brooke weaves a mean tale on and off the bikes that starts from the word go and nothing is off limits right through out. Even by the time you finish you want more.
Definitely a roller-coaster ride of emotions going on in this tale.
Can Parker pull himself together? I’m not going to say, that’s for you to find out.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the 6th book in the Moto X Series. I do recommend reading these books in order so that you get the complete story and because we are introduced to Parker in the previous books as well.

This is Parker’s story. I’ll be honestly my heart broke reading this. Parker has such a tough start in life which lead to issues with addiction, and partying until he met Megan and had his daughter.
He is trying so desperately hard to be the best man and dad he can be, however because he hasn’t worked through the issues from his past, the demons are always holding him back.
When Megan leaves him Parker starts to spiral out of control again, doing things he knows he shouldn’t and risking not only his family life but his career and everything his sister and him have created.
Parker needs help to handle his demons but until he accepts the help himself no one else can help him.
What is it going to take for him to realise he needs help to overcome his past trauma’s and the be the best dad and man he can be? Will he realise too late and lose everything?

Parker is a dark character in the sense that he has a lot of trauma and addictions to work through, however he is also a good man who is trying his hardest to be the best person he can be for the people he loves. That’s why my heart went out to him because he tries so hard but always seems to fall short which people dealing with trauma seem to do. You can’t expect to move forward and be happy if you have demons and trauma from the past to work through.

This story is gripping and thought provoking and in parts heartbreaking as Parker’s emotions and despair fly off the pages. The fight he goes through and his determination to be better is what really endeared him to me.
The author did an incredible job at making the reader feel every emotion and struggle that Parker went through.

Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride Book 3 and LumberCats Series Book 2) by Brooke May – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.

The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride)The Mating Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cricket Adams is a mountain shifter in the Elkhorn Pride, her family owns a logging company and she has a son, but his father, her first mate, was tragically taken from her too early, so she threw herself into work and being a single mother, all while suffering from the loss of her mate. Boone Claw is a mountain shifter from the Long Claw Pride and as one of many siblings, he has been told of the mating call from a young age and he has also seen other family members being affected by it, so when it comes to him, he is more than ready to meet his future.

One day Cricket is working as usual when all of a sudden, the mating call hits her, but she is confused and terrified because she has already had a mate and cannot believe that it would come for her for a second time and nobody in her pride have ever heard of it happening either. Boone pretty much drops his life as a logger with the forestry service near his Long Claw Pride lands, to go find his mate, however, when he meets her, he is in shock at her reaction, especially finding out that she is in the same profession as his family, but the surprises don’t end there.

As Boone and Cricket slowly get to know one another, her reservations and emotions are all over the place and she is amazed at how patient Boone is being, but she is also surprised at his reaction to when a certain Mr Grace appears, he is a human who is becoming a definite thorn in her side, but is he ever going to take no as an answer to his questions and what will become of this second mating chance, will it end in rejection, or romance? This is another spicy romance where emotions run high and challenges are made as two shifters come together to find their future amid uncertainty and confusion.

This is the 3rd book in the Long Claw Pride Series, though I read it as a standalone and was able to grasp everything in the story I felt. You would benefit by getting to know other characters etc. if you read the series in order, I’m sure. This is also the first book by Brooke May that I have read, and I must say I wasn’t disappointed. The unique premise of second chance fated mates drew me to this book, as in most paranormal mates series the idea of a 2nd fated mate is unheard of.

I really enjoyed Boone and Cricket’s unique story and all the trials and tribulations they faced along the way. Can love like lightning really strike twice for Cricket? Will Boone, who waited his whole life to find his mate, be able to accept a young widow with a child? Will they be able to walk away from the pull they feel for each other or can they overcome their fears and pasts to make a go at it? This is a really touching second chance romance with some major and minor obstacles to overcome! I can’t wait to read more by this author after finishing this book.

I’ve read quite a few Brooke May selections in the past and honestly that is one of my main reasons for picking up this selection. I’ve also read some of these series out of order so I’m also used to jumping into the middle of one because although some details are better explained in previous works, the reader can usually go with the flow with the main content of the story. This story was quite unique as it centers around mountain lion shifters. That’s a first for me, although the trend for other paranormal themes try to realm in some unique quality. The story focuses on Cricket, a single hard-working mother who has lost her mate. Very invested in the family life and business, the unexpected finds both Cricket and Boone, new to the logging company owned by Cricket’s family. The unusual aspect is finding a second mate and the possibility of finding comfort in another.

Another amazing read by Brooke May who is a master at her craft as an author. The Making Chance was a great read, that takes a different take on the typical shapeshifters, and it really worked! This is the first book in the Long Claw Pride that I have read and am excited to see if there are other books in this series because this story had me wanting more to read about the lives of the Long Claw characters. The author has a way of developing characters that make them so realistic that it leaves you questioning if shapeshifters exist. This story includes two different prides, both of which are filled with loggers, which was perfect when the call to claim his mate came, our main male character was able to go to the rescue of his counterpart who was in dire need of some help with the family business. A huge plot twist is that she has already had a mate in the past, as well as a child with her first mate. This is something that none of the tribes have ever heard of, which has both of our main characters uncertain of their fates. If you’ve read any of Brooke May’s work in the past, you will not want to miss out on reading this book, and if you’ve never read any of her work, please know she is a super-talented author who draws you in with her magnificent writing skills.

I didn’t realize this was part of a series, so I read this one first. Despite that I hadn’t read the previous books, I was not lost at all so I think it works well as a standalone. That being said, I am definitely going back to pick up the other books because I enjoyed this one so much. Getting to know Boone and Cricket was such an emotional adventure. There is plenty of drama, emotional investment, adventure, and romance throughout. I breezed through this book in a day because I couldn’t put it down.

The Mating Chance is part of Brooke May’s Long Claw Pride series. This is technically book three and there is a little callback to the first two stories since they are all part of the same family, but this can easily be read as a stand-alone. Boone has spent the last few years watching others in his family get their mailing call, when his finally comes he is excited to start his life with his mate. What he doesn’t anticipate is the potential that they may reject each other due to the nature of Crickets life. Cricket has already had a call, and began her forever with him, so a second one in their species is unheard of. When Boone comes crashing into their lives, she is taken aback and confused. Let me tell you, you root for this couple from the very beginning. She deserves her second chance love story and Boone just wants love with his mate. I’ve enjoyed Brookes take on the shifters because she didn’t do the typical wolf shifters. This series is fun and I am looking forward to the next cousin getting their mate!

The Mating Chance is Book Three in the Long Claw Pride Series. It is a second chance, fated mates, paranormal romance that centers around the characters of Boone and Cricket. It is full of shifters, drama, tension, angst, secrets, witty banter, and chemistry. Boone is a mountain lion shifter and part of the Long Claw Clan. When Boone finally feels the mating call and goes in search of his mate it leads him to Cricket. Cricket has already been mated and had a family but unfortunately her mate died. With her focus being on raising her family, it comes as a complete surprise to her when she feels the mating call again. Cricket denies that Boone could be her mate and refuses to accept the attraction between them. Boone is determined to prove that he is her mate and refuses to accept her rejection. And of course, it seems that a human has other plans for Boone and Cricket, and he seems determined to keep them apart. Can Boone and Cricket overcome the obstacles in their way and find love in one another? The small-town mountain setting provides a beautiful backdrop to the love story between two members of mountain lion shifters from different prides. A unique and interesting twist on the usual shifter fated mate’s theme.

This is the 3rd book in the Long Claw Pride series. It can be read as a standalone, however for me personally I feel you will get a better understanding for our characters and their prides by reading from the beginning. This is a second chance paranormal shifter romance. It is full of everything we would expect from angst and challenges to humour, family and chemistry that only appears in fated mate stories.
In this book we meet Boone and Cricket and this is their story.

All Boone wants is to find his fated mate and he knows when the call happens he needs to follow it to find her which he does and that leads him to Cricket.
Cricket has been through a tough time. After finding her mate and starting what she imagined would be a blissful life with her children, she never thought for one second it would be taken away from her when her mate dies.

The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride Series Book 3 and LumberCats Series Book2) by Brooke May – Review by Jules Herbert

The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride)The Mating Chance by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am really enjoying the Long Claw Pride series by this wonderful and creative author. This book sees Cricket, a very young widow with a young child get a second chance at love through a mating call. This is unheard of and very confusing for her. Boone answers his mating call and after working out what was holding Cricket back they embrace the call. Drama with Crickets family business links with others in this series and I can’t wait for more. I need to know how all this is going to unfold.

The Mating Chance (Long Claw Pride Series & LumberCats Series) by Brooke May – Review by Rita White, 03/2024

This is the 3rd book in the series, and it is fantastic.  It has to be a stand-alone because I haven’t read the first 2. (Yet)
The story follows Cricket and Boone, who are Mountain Lions.  Crickets family runs a logging business, and this creepy man will not leave them alone about buying the business.
Cricket lost her 1st mate to a logging accident, and once you have mated, you are mated for life.  Well, that didn’t work with Cricket as she has gotten the mating call again.  This has never happened before.  You will see her struggle with this mating call because of losing her 1st mate.  Fantastic read.

What an emotional rollercoaster our female lead goes through, Cricket, mountain lion shifter is doing everything life and the family expects of her, she works, meets her mate and has her son. What she does not count on is the absolute abject heartbreak of what happens when Beck dies. <br />Surviving but not really living Cricket feels the mating pull again.<br />Boone follows the pull to his one, his mate to find her in trouble but in denial as well.How can he help the family to retain their business, win the heart of his mate and make a life for them.<br />This story pulls on the heart strings and has you rooting for the couple. <br />Well written and interesting characters. <br />
