Secretive (The Houston Defiance MC Series Book 7) Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 596 ratings

They see me as weak.
Just a scared kid.
The moment my big sister took me away from the club, it sealed my fate as a burden.

As the son of a president for the Houston Defiance MC, I was born into power. I’m destined to lead. My father and older brother before me, I should follow in their footsteps. But
they don’t see me that way.

The only path to keep me safe is to ship me off.
To live a life
they have chosen for me.
Doesn’t matter what I want.

Behind the ivy-covered walls of Stonewall are mysteries, lies, deception.
I want to uncover it all.
The sting of secrets is to be revealed.

One thing I wasn’t counting on was Thayleah, a fellow student who takes my breath away the second I see her.
But she’s tied to another club.
When enemies come in all forms, you need to keep your eyes open.
But I didn’t see this coming!

This is NOT a STAND-ALONE! This story is basically the first part of Koda’s and Thayleah’s story AND IT DOES END ON A CLIFFHANGER. The great news is the next story (the series finale) will be available to read in just a few days.

This is a very interactive series with a dynamic universe that continues to build with every new story. It has multiple reoccurring characters, consecutive timelines (with flashbacks), and overarching themes. Over 70% of this story is about the details of what happened to Koda and Thayleah while they where in college at Stonewall. There is also a secret society introduced that could make a new spin-off if desired.

I love how this has been like one intense action-packed, drama-filled, hits-keep-on-coming mysterious romance! I will be anxiously waiting for the series finale to be released.

** If you have not read the previous stories in the series, the following may contain spoilers **

⛔️ Contains references to, or scenes detailing, subject matter that may be a trigger or offensive to some, including: adult language; derogatory terms; mental health challenges of anxiety, depression, PTSD, panic attacks, suicide; steamy adult intimate scenes with dominance, submission, restraints, spanking for pleasure, etc.; violence stereotypical of the genre such as kidnapping, abduction, murder, death, torture, assault, fighting, betrayal, coercion, blackmail, threats, subterfuge, money laundering, gun running, cheating, prostitution, human trafficking, mafia / cartels, drug use, drug manufacturing, drug distribution, as well as the mental, physical and sexual abuse of females and children, etc.

** Caution: Contains scenes with reference to, or detailed graphic violence against females and children that fit into the storyline, but may be a trigger for some **

There are a few grammatical issues but they are minimal and primarily comprised of incorrect word choice / tense, typos, punctuation issues, missed words and extra inserted words. There are also some colloquialisms that didn’t match what would be used in the US, especially in the south. I am mentioning these for readers such as myself that visualize the story as it is read, because errors interrupt the flow.

This story begins where the previous ended, with some repetitive scenes from a different point of view. These scenes go back to when the Militia attacked the Defiance clubhouse killing Koda’s parents, the MC’s President and First Lady.

It also contains details about what happened to Thayleah when she was kidnapped by her brother-in-law (Phoenix Club Girl Diaries) and a little bit about her life with the Defiance MC in Phoenix.

It is great to finally have some more details about these incidents. The different perspectives really rounds it out. I just wish that these could have been shared at the time. With it taking place now, it makes for some repetitive reading, and there are a couple that don’t really offer any additional information.

Regardless I still HIGHLY recommend this story and series.

Loved experiencing Koda’s journey to figure out what he wants and how to embrace the family legacy in the MC. Heading to Stonewall for college is a turning point. Meeting Thayleah at a frat party is his destiny. Thayleah is a survivor and found a family with an MC club in Arizona. Her dream was always to go to Stonewall which they made happen. At a vulnerable moment, she looked up and into Koda’s eyes and found peace. These two find a wonderful connection and as they work to build a relationship, Koda stumbles into the secret Scorpio Society which puts everything at risk. Will Koda be able to solve this mystery on his own? Will they be able to break away from the Scorpio Society games? I loved this couple and how they worked together to find their future. Hanging on a cliff with this amazing ending! I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

I have really enjoyed this series, and I can't believe that there's only one more book left! I'm sad to see this end, but I'm definitely looking forward to reading the NOLA Defiance MC series!
I love Koda's story so far, and I can't wait to see how it all ends. This is definitely a must read series!
I would definitely recommend this book, series, and exceptional author.

I am so happy it went back and talked about Koda and Thayleahs story. I was wondering any time parts were mentioned just what happened. It was a good book. I am so worried about what is to come tho. I am scared to death just who is gonna make it out alive with the other book. I just hope its everybody but I highly doubt that.

Koda is smart and goes after what he wants. They mean is smart but has issued but because of those issues she is stronger than she thinks and is willing to sacrifice her self to save the ones she loves. Onto the next book as I think there is going to be install of a storyline and plot twist

Another good one in this series. It was great to get Koda's pov and story. I really liked Thayleah and think they are so sweet together. Different from the series but still lots of suspense. That ending though! Glad the final book is coming soon.

Reviewed in Canada on January 30, 2022
Did anyone else feel that 90 % of this book was just copy and paste from other books? I knew that whole story from reading this author’s other books. I even checked the release date because I was thinking that I have already read this book! Don’t get me wrong I think KE Osborn is brilliant!! One of my top three authors. I would read her grocery list if I had the chance! This book just confused me. Well written and a great story but one that’s already been told. I can’t wait for book 8 as I have loved this series from the start. Sorry I kind of went on a bit of a rant. Thank you for all the wonderful books that you have shared. Looking forward to many, many more.
