Steel

* ARC Review *

Steel by Eva Simmons

Twisted Kings MC Book 1

“You’re a good girl. Or, at least, too good for a man like me.” “I’ll let you in on a little secret. Even a good girl wants to be f!cked like she’s bad sometimes.”

Let me just say, Steel is everything I love in an MC romance—action-packed, steamy, and filled with heartwarming moments.

Jameson “Steel” is the young and ruthless president of the Twisted Kings MC, fiercely loyal to his club and keeping his heart under lock and key. Relationships? Not in the cards for him. Enter Tempe, a total spitfire, or should I say “Wildfire”, who’ll do anything to protect her little brother, Austin—even if it means stealing from Steel’s clubhouse. When she gets caught, things get complicated, and fast.

Now, let’s talk about the heat between Steel and Tempe—because, wow! Their chemistry is off the charts. From the moment they meet, you can feel the tension simmering, and when things finally ignite? It’s 🔥🔥🔥. The slow-burn build-up only made their steamy scenes even more intense. Steel is tough and brooding, but Tempe definitely brings out his softer, protective side, and their intimate moments are just as fiery as they are emotional. Together, they are bold, passionate, and absolutely electric.

I also adored the softer moments, especially the bond between Steel and Austin—it melted my heart. Steel might be all tough on the outside, but his scenes with Austin and Tempe showed a tenderness that was so sweet amidst all the action and danger.

The side characters add humor, drama, and a strong sense of found family, and the suspense will keep you on edge. This book has it all—action, heart, and some seriously steamy romance. If you love MC romances with a protective alpha, a fierce heroine, and plenty of spice, Steel is an absolute must-read. I’m already dying for the next book in the series!

Blurb:

I was caught stealing from the Twisted Kings, and now I’m at the mercy of Jameson Steel.

It’s not like I planned any of this… The same way I didn’t plan on being the only parent to my four-year-old brother.

But one night, everything went sideways, and now Jameson is my only chance at getting out of this mess.

He doesn’t trust me, but he needs me to get back at the man who sent me to his clubhouse. His protection for my cooperation. As long as my brother is safe, it’s a deal I can’t refuse.

But living with the enemy is dangerous. Jameson’s vengeance is prolific. He only cares about revenge, and he’s not interested in the pre-built family I come with.

The Twisted Kings are his life. Nothing comes before his club or the president patch on his chest—especially not us.

Or so I thought…
