Unruly

Douglas (a pseudonym for bestselling author Melissa Marr) serves up healthy portions of both heat and sweet, in her second Knights in Black Leather new adult contemporary (after Undaunted). The bikers of the Southern Wolves motorcycle club are Alejandro "Alamo" Diaz's chosen family, the only family he has other than his beloved sister, Zoe. When standing up for the right thing lands him in a load of trouble in North Carolina, he heads south and runs squarely into further problems with Ellen, the daughter of a fellow club member. Ellen's father died years earlier, but the club members all consider her a little sister%E2%80%94and one of them wants more than that. Ellen says she's only looking for no-strings-attached sex; Alamo would prefer romance. But when danger follows him to his new home, his only priority becomes keeping her safe. Douglas throws the lovers into hair-raising escapades while providing a satisfying update on the first book's protagonists and setting the stage for the next installment's drama. (Mar.)
