About this listen
Iris: Since my mother died, my only goal has been to get custody of my sister Jerrica and keep her safe. I was on my way, too—getting emancipated by the court so I could get a job and prove I had the means to take responsibility for my little sister. I promised I'd keep her safe and I'd never abandon her. I was with her every day until I came to her group home one morning to find she'd been adopted out overnight. It's obvious there's something sinister at work, but no amount of threats and demands will override a closed adoption order. It looks like Jerrica is gone from my life forever, but I've got one more trick up my sleeve. Jerrica made friends with a woman from a local motorcycle club. I have no idea if the woman will help, but I have no where else to go. What I didn't count on is him. Sting. President of Iron Tzars MC. He doesn't know it yet, but once I get Jerrica back, he's next on my list.
Sting: I wasn't ready to be president of an MC like Iron Tzars, but my father left me little choice. I grew up in the club. At 29, most of the men still see me as no more than a kid. But my daddy taught me well. I tolerate no disloyalty or disrespect and always, always put the club first. Then I met Iris. She's a heap of trouble in a small package and she pings my radar from the moment I first lay eyes on her. I know she's going to be mine—which means she has to trust me to take care of her. But Iris trusts no one when it comes to her sister. With both of them in danger, I now have to make a decision. Changing plans will put the club at risk, but doing nothing will risk them both. I'm not willing to take that risk.
Putting a woman above the club is what got my father in trouble. Now I'm in the same boat. Stupid. Especially since Iris has no idea I've already claimed her.
***NOTE*** while Sting's book can be enjoyed by itself, if you are new to Marteeka's books, you may enjoy it more if you listen to Bones MC 13: Deadeye and Black Reign MC 9: Warlock as well.

Story
I’m the youngest grad student at MIT, and to say other students resent me for it is an understatement. To top it all off, I miss my Stunner. He’s been with me through the darkest moments of my life, helping me pull myself back together. He’s seen me at my worst—I want him to see me at my best. If he’d just return my calls, I might be able to get myself around the mean girls (and boys) at school.

Story
Angel: I’m a teacher. Or rather, I want to be. Fresh out of college, I went on a date with the wrong man and ended up drugged and helpless in a really bad place. The motorcycle club I was taken to was no place for a woman, as I found out the hard way. They thought I was helpless, but I managed to get away - only to stumble onto three kids who need me as a teacher. The problem? They’re with another club. I can’t leave them until I’m convinced they're safe. Unfortunately, the club president doesn’t like me much. He’s also the hottest man I’ve ever come across.

There wasn’t a lot that surprised me. My years in the Navy taught me a lot, my years hunting human traffickers taught me the rest. Meeting a beautiful woman in a bar and spending the night with her should’ve been a blip on my radar. Instead, I spent years trying to forget her. In the middle of a rescue operation, fate dropped her back into my life, but there was a twist—she wasn’t alone.

Story
When my father tries to force me to marry one of his cronies, I run away to my half-brother's home. He's the black sheep of the family, a biker, not an Irish mobster. At the Satan's Sinners' MC compound, I find more than I bargained for. Not my brother, ironically, but a man who gives a whole other meaning to "white knight." He's dark and mysterious, a seeker of answers and a finder of truths. Even better? He offers me an out, a shotgun wedding in Vegas.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Good Start
This is a good start to the series and if you're new to the Author I would suggest not starting here. While this can be read stand alone I think it would be better if you start with the Bones MC Series, I've read/Listened to most of those and I would continue on with the Black Reign Spin off series, which I have not started yet and will be back tracking too, there is some history I think would make this one more enjoyable. It's a quick listen and the narration is fantastic making it that much more entertaining.

Stop trafficking.
A well written, well told MC Romance. Love at first sight. Sting and Iris. Sting, the new prez of the MC. Iris, working hard to get custody of her young sister. She is kidnapped. Sting's MC is out to get traffickers. Their story is predictable, but very good and exciting.
Umi's narration is spot on. Even her male voices are wonderful.

Finished in One Sitting!
A quick and enjoyable MC romance! I love the characters especially Sting. The pace was good for the length. It felt like a complete story and a satisfying ending. This is an age gap romance so keep that in mind going in.
The audiobook narrator was great! Umi Markkanen did a great job. At one point I forgot there was only one narrator.
I received a free review copy from Story Origin in exchange for my honest review.

Great beginning
This was a great beginning to the series. I actually started out with Book 2 as part of an ARC and had to buy Book 1 as I was so intrigued with the storyline and the characters. I wanted to know about this character and his path. I wasn't let down either. Great character development and world building. Love the strong image but teddy bear underneath. Can't wait to get more in this series and other series by this author.

Sting/Iris
Iris is doing everything she can to get custody of her sister but when she goes back to see her sister and they said she was adopted overnight, she knew it was more going on. Iris turns to the only people who might be able to help a local MC. Sting is visiting his father for counsel after taking over his MC when Iris demands entry to ask for help. Sting and some of his men come into assist the local MC. I felt like there was a lot I didn't know because I haven't read any of the other series but enjoyed this one and you do get a complete story of Sting/Iris.

Too Short
Because of my fascination with stories featuring motorcycle clubs, the synopsis for Sting captured my attention. It is the first book in the Iron Tzars MC series and is written by new to me author Marteeka Karland.
The premise was good, however the story suffered the fate that normally comes with novellas. Insufficient information with regard to the characters, which led to a disconnect with them. The heroine, Iris, is seeking to adopt her younger sister, but she needed to wait until she was eighteen as ordered by the court. Then her sister was adopted under suspicious circumstances three months before Iris's eighteenth birthday. She turned to the MC for help in finding her sister. This led to her encounter and subsequent relationship with Sting, the president of the Iron Tzars.
Personally, I found the relationship lacking in authenticity. They knew nothing about each other prior to the start of their relationship. The romance did not get time to develop, as the story was dedicated to the search and rescue of Iris's sister. The thing that shocked me the most was that Sting did not seek to determine Iris's age before getting involved with her.
Readers are aware that the girls' mother died and since the Iris has been taking care of her sister. However, information regarding how their mom died was not provided, and it would seem they had no other relatives. Not much information was provided about Sting. We know he is 29, and he became President after his father was expelled from the club.
The events occurred over a three-month period, but the delivery gave the impression that it all occurred in one day.
Sting had potential, but due to the above-mentioned issues, it failed to live up to my expectations.
Umi Markkanen did an excellent job with her narration. She breathed life into the story and the characters. I would definitely listen to her again.
