As the enforcer of the Torpedo Ink motorcycle club, Reaper lives for riding and fighting. He's a stone-cold killer who turns his wrath on those who deserve it. Feelings are a weakness he can't afford-until a gorgeous bartender gets under his skin. Near Sea Haven, the small town of Caspar has given Anya Rafferty a new lease on life.

This is the first book in a new series by Christine Feehan. It is about Torpedo Ink, a motorcycle gang with a horrific past in Russia. There is a mild paranormal element here, with various members exhibiting "gifts" like the ability to influence other's thoughts. Other than the setting, this book follows the Christine Feehan formula.
A damaged man finds the one woman he connects to. After some resistance, he "claims" her as his own. But the woman is not sure if she wants to be with such a domineering man. Eventually the hot sex wins and she submits to him body and soul.
Reaper is more willing than many of Ms. Feehan's males to make compromises and listen to Anya. That makes the book more palatable than some of her others.

strong sex/ gritty mc
I did enjoy JUDGMENT ROAD, but I wouldn't really call it paranormal romance. I'm going to jump right into the characters. It takes a bit to really get to know Reaper, but I liked him. He has a really tough past that wasn't easy to read about. He is pretty deadly and comes across as heartless, but I felt for him and was really rooting for his HEA. Anya is on the run, but we don't really find out from what until way into the story. She is alone in the world and it was easy to connect to her feelings. She didn't trust easily and there were a few times that I wanted to shake her and say OPEN UP a little, but I totally got where she was coming from.I enjoyed getting to know the secondary characters. They are ALL flawed and it will be interesting to watch them in future books. Having said that, I wasn't totally sold on the back stories of the motorcycle club. It is pretty out there and the facts are a little few and far between. I think maybe this might change as we get to know each member better.The only paranormal thing happening in JUDGMENT ROAD is the fact that it's mentioned a few times that the members of Torpedo Ink motorcycle club have some talents. There isn't much use of these talents and their talents are an afterthought in the grand scheme of things. Maybe this will change in future books, but as of right now, I don't really feel the paranormal coming through.Now the romance definitely shines through and the sexy times can get pretty steamy. The relationship between Anya and Reaper is slow to form and has it's issues, but they fit together. When they both let the romance happen it is pure magic.* This book was provided free of charge from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this book!!! Fantastic story, brilliant characters & great romance with hot’n’steamy sexy times, what more can one want from a romance book - NOTHING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!! Such an intriguing back story can’t wait to read the next installment because I want more from this world. I am already invested in all the characters. And look forward to reading each of their stories. Get me a helmet I’m ready to ride! ?
I always love Christine's books. I like the premise of the bikers but I will say in this case, I'd rather had more story and less graphic sex scenes. And that's something I've NEVER said ever. Just feel like there was a much better story line there than was explored. Still, I'll read (or listen too), everything she out.
I wanted to read Judgment Road because it was a spinoff from the Sea Haven series and I rather enjoyed a few of those books. Although, I was not drawn to the motorcycle club idea because honestly it just doesn’t appeal to me but I was willing to give it a try because I am a fan of Christine Feehan’s works. At the start of Judgment Road I was thinking that I made a mistake because the main character Reaper basically worshipped his club and well……. meh, but as the story progressed I found that there was more to this club than met the eye (which is also something I remembered from the Sea Haven series) and I began to like where things were going.Reaper was not a character that I was drawn to initially, especially with how he was such a creeper around Anya Rafferty. I will admit though that I was drawn to the mystery of why she got under his skin so easily. As the story between them played out I began to like Reaper more and more. He may not have said all the right things, like ever, but his actions spoke volumes. I loved that he cared so much about Anya’s well-being and happiness. I wasn’t the biggest fan of how domineering he was with her in the beginning but given his history and that it was something that he was willing to try and deal with so that he could be safe for Anya, well that did melt my icy heart a bit for him. I think that Anya and Reaper together was a great pairing and their relationship was both steamy and swoony.Some of the subject material in Judgment Road was very hard to read because just the idea of what had taken place in the lives of these characters when they were children was just disturbing but I loved that they bound themselves together and developed their own family. I also loved that skills that the club members learned for nefarious purposes, that they turned those skills around for the purpose of good. The scenes where they went to take down the bad guys, absolutely epic. I am a fan of vigilante justice and everything that was done to the villains in this book set very well with me. By the time I was done reading Judgment Road my personal judgment on this series had also changed and I can’t wait to continue reading the Torpedo Ink series!This review is based on a complimentary book I received from NetGalley. It is an honest and voluntary review. The complimentary receipt of it in no way affected my review or rating.
