Santa Biker is book #13 in the Royal Bastards MC: Tonopah, NV Chapter series by Nikki Landis. I have been waiting for this one for a while now and I'm so glad it was told as a Christmas story because it made it more special. As we've learned now the Tonopah chapter isn't what it seems and this series has a paranormal twist to it in Nikki Landis style.
Santa Biker finally brings us Diablo's story and I've been waiting for this since reading about him in Praying For Thunder by India R. Adams. Diablo is the club's cleaner and tattoo artist. In his life, he has lost more than any man ever should and it leads him to make a deal with the devil himself. He never thought he would find love again after losing Anita and Thunder but then he met Gina and her 2 kids Rev and Olivia. Gina took her kids to escape her abusive ex and was on the run with her kids until she landed in Tonopah and met Sasha. The club took her in as one of theirs and she caught Diablo's eye immediately. When a threat comes in against her he swears his protection and it gives him a chance to get closer to her and her kids. Diablo even gets to be Santa for the kids which is beyond sweet.
I gave this one a 4-star rating and a 3-spicy rating because of how the story was told. It was told in the present with flashbacks from Diablo's past which gave the entire picture of his story. For Christmas Diablo was able to get a family he's been wanting for years and reunite with his son and Gina finally got to see what a real man is and her children got the Christmas they have always deserved. I'd say everyone got their Christmas wish. I recommend reading India R. Adams Praying For Thunder to be able to understand this story better. Her character Thunder is Diablo's chosen son and knowing what happened with him and his Ani will help you better understand Diablo and his need for a family. ( )
