About the Book
From a past of righteousness to a future of anything but…
Rev rarely does what’s expected of him.
The Blood Fury member’s rebellious nature tends to lead him on the road less traveled.
In his youth, he fought the chains meant to restrain him, meant to force him on a righteous path. A path he never chose. A path he never planned to follow.
He prefers to pave his own road, taking detours to forge his own future.
Even if it’s one full of sin.
But an unexpected call drags him back to the painful past he’s left far behind. One he’s tried to forget.
No good reason exists for him to return. Except to witness the final moments of the person who made him and his sister suffer.
Maybe even get a taste of revenge.
However, he’s not sure he can deal with it alone. He wants someone to stand by him and help give him strength.
A woman who also carves her own path and spits in the face of restrictive rules.
The problem is, she’s off limits. No matter how tempting she is, no matter how satisfying the sin would be, touching her is one rule he can’t break.
Ultimately, mistakes are made.
Secrets are forced to be kept.
Because he’s a sinner.
He was born one.
He will die one.
And in between, he plans to enjoy the life he chose.
Sins and all.
Note: Blood & Bones: Rev is the eighth book in the Blood Fury MC series. As always, this book has no cheating, no cliffhanger and has an HEA. It’s recommended to read this series in order.

Prologue
For I have sinned
He hated it.
Hated her.
Hated them.
All of them. Every last one.
He hated kneeling.
He hated praying.
He hated the endless drone of their voices.
He even hated the ten wooden chairs that formed a circle around him.
In those chairs sat his mother and nine other women from their church. When the women had entered the room, they refused to look at him and his mother demanded he keep his eyes lowered to the open book in his hand.
Why?
Because Michael was a sinner.
His spine, from his tailbone to the top of his neck, felt ready to splinter.
The skin on his bare knees was about to split open from kneeling on the stack of wooden rulers.
His muscles cramped from keeping perfectly still so the bible balanced on his head wouldn’t tumble to the floor.
His arms trembled from holding the “good book” open in his hands.
He wasn’t allowed to move except to turn the wafer-thin pages.
