About this listen

Brotherhood. Club. Family.

They live and ride by their own rules.

These are the Raven Riders....

Raven Riders Motorcycle Club president Dare Kenyon rides hard and values loyalty above all else. He'll do anything to protect the brotherhood of bikers - the only family he's got - as well as those who can't defend themselves. So when mistrustful Haven Randall lands on the club's doorstep scared that she's being hunted, Dare takes her in, swears to keep her safe, and pushes to learn the secrets overshadowing her pretty smile.

Haven fled from years of abuse at the hands of her criminal father and is suspicious of any man's promises, including those of the darkly sexy and overwhelmingly intense Ravens' leader. But as the powerful attraction between them flares to life, Dare pushes her boundaries and tempts her to want things she never thought she could.

The past never dies without a fight, but Dare Kenyon's never backed down before....

IT BUILT & GREW INTO 5* AWESOMENESS

I knew Laura Kaye was good after following her Hard Ink series but nothing could have prepared me for this awesome ride as she introduces you to the Brothers of the Raven Riders MC. At first LK introduces the cast of characters, outlines their backgrounds and describes the Club, it's motto, banner and beliefs.... all whilst she's also threading and easing the plot securely into place - that of Haven and Cora. Two young women who'd been on the run from abuse, mental cruelty and, in Haven's case, from her Crime Boss Father who'd kept her as his pawn, his possession, his prisoner... but never his loved daughter. Now, because of some 'shit out of luck' circumstances that led them to be penniless and kidnapped, the two women were cautiously optimistic, rescued and safe - protected by the Raven Riders but for how long because Haven's Father WOULD come.... it was just a matter of how and when.

Then, after LK had skilfully first done the groundwork and laid the foundations, she then went on to build the connection and growing attraction between Drew, the 37 yr old Club's ruggedly handsome but haunted President, and Haven, the shy timid 22 yr old beauty, who'd caught Drew's attention. And their journey to a HEA went from sweet and tender, through tentative and touching, veered into sinfully sexy, pit stopped at Crazytown where heartbreak, anguish, drama, bloodshed and death waited.... until they finally reached their destination - the flashing neon lights of a HEA ending.

I loved this listen and the time LK took to describe the characters, their personalities and backgrounds and the solid brotherhood vibe between each member of the MC and they weren't dirty talking 1%'ers with badass attitudes. Instead they were a caring, friendly and protective group who often rescued and relocated abused women, but don't get me wrong, they still wore cuts and shitkickers, had Club sweet bloods, did shady deals, had weapons, swore and rode Harleys. They reminded me of the Black Dagger Brotherhood (which is, IMO, high praise indeed) because you could feel the love, respect and trust between them and the 'all for one' attitude. Dare was charismatic, sexy, strong and thoughtful and Haven went from being a frightened mouse into a courageous deadly lion and together they saved each other. Dual POV's, great story that also drew in the Hard Ink men and a wickedly talented narrator because Abby Craden can do many voices, both genders, a sexy male voice and inject all the passion and emotion needed to push a great book into a truly captivating and riveting listen.

Worth a credit? One million x YES.... and, if you love good MC books as much as I do, then you too will find this creditworthy and I hope that this series will build, grow and go from great to legendary. And I can't wait to see who's next - because LK has outlined a few deserving characters who desperately need their HEAs too.

Great story!

A friend recently recommended this book to me, and I absolutely loved it! The female narrator does fantastic voices, from the shy, timid Haven and the brassy Cora to the baritone and gravelly voices of the bikers. The story is sexy, romantic, and suspenseful up until the last minute! I would recommend this book to my friends.

I Love A Hot MC Book And This One Was Sweet & Hot

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this one and I didn't expect to. I don't like timid women but this book really drew me in and it was a pleasant surprise.

Good Book not so good narrator

What made the experience of listening to Ride Hard the most enjoyable?

Waiting to see what happened to Heaven and Dare.

What did you like best about this story?

How Heaven never gave up on what she wanted

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I did like the narrator, she was doing different voices for each character and they were just horrible. Almost had to stop listening to it but I push through.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I tried to listen to it as much as possible to see where thing were leading

Loved it!

Loved the story and all of the characters. Loved how the crew from Hard Ink was intertwined into this book and played a supporting role.
What I didn't love however, was the narrator's character voices. It was almost comical how they sounded, very distracting at first. I already had so much time invested in the series that this one spun from, that I really wanted to finish this story. The narrator's own voice was very pleasant but her characters voices were not...don't get it.
But if you already read the Hard Ink series, then you will definitely want to listen to this one!

Another Awesome LK novel!

I wasn't sure if I was going to love this new series as much as Hard Ink, but it is truly FANTASTIC! Loved the presenceof my Hard Ink faves as well.
