KALE: Texas Kings MC, Book 1 Kindle Edition

Even though this is the beginning of a series, I do NOT consider it to be a STAND-ALONE read. Cee Bowerman authors multiple series set within Rojo, Texas and they are intertwined. There is a correct reading order and it can be found on her website (ceebowermanbooks.com). These really do need to be read in that order for maximum reader satisfaction and to prevent spoilers as there are multiple reoccurring characters, details that cannot be adequately recapped within the scope of another story that contributes to the story universe / world building, overlapping / concurrent timelines and overarching themes.** There are some scenes that will be a trigger for sensitive readers. I have included examples below. Also, if you have not read the previous story in this series, the following may contain SPOILERS **Another great story by Cee Bowerman. This features Kale and Terra, the best friend of Lisa that she was incarcerated with in Utah. Their “courtship” is definitely unique, and even more so in the MC genre. At the request of Lisa, the two of them agree to not describe themselves. Terra ends up with a nickname from Zeke based on this secrecy of “Stache” as in mustache, which he may or may not have mimed, along with a growth on her forehead about the size of a nickel. Fortunately for both Kale and Terra, neither of those things are true.Even though this story does start before the ending of the previous story that it intertwines with, there aren’t really a lot of duplicate scenes. I loved the sense of humor woven into the story, as it had a nice sarcastic bend and some LOL moments among the violence. There are a few twists, one of which happens in the beginning that I am sure will be detailed in another story.Another scenes of Terra with the warden and getting out of prison are heartbreaking and heartwarming. The different POVs make the story, but especially those scenes come to life. From the nerves, closure of the past, fear of the unknown, hope for the future and the potential for ❤️…One last note before I wrap this part up … the MC genre contains several different branches from sweet to outlaw to one percenters. While the Texas Knights MC is in the middle imo, the Texas Kings MC is more of the outlaw variety. Both focus on love, brotherhood, families and support, but the Texas Kings also bring vengeance to the table.⛔️ The series 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; steamy adult intimate scenes with dominance, submission, spanking for pleasure and punishment, restraints, “bottom” play, breath play, sensory deprivation, voyeurism, exhibitionism, etc.; violence such as kidnapping, abduction, murder, death, torture, assault, fighting, betrayal, coercion, blackmail, rape, attempted rape, threats, subterfuge, money laundering, cheating, prostitution, human trafficking, mafia / cartels, arson, drug use, drug addiction, drug manufacturing, drug distribution, as well as the mental, physical and sexual abuse of females and/or children, polygamy, 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 very few grammatical issues primarily comprised of incorrect word choice (piece iso peace), typos (att iso at) punctuation errors (extra periods, commas, extra spaces, missing quotation marks), missed words and extra inserted / repetitive words.There is also a timeline issue in this story. After Terra and Kale have written to each other for a while, Kale loses interest in other women. When he tried to “take the edge off”, things didn’t work. This occurs shortly after they start corresponding (I would estimate 3+ months), then a little later it indicates this happened about a month before she got out of prison. I recommend that this get fixed on the next revision. As a reader, I especially dislike cheating even though some storylines call for it, and while they were not exclusive then, once he started to like her in the story and be interested in her beyond a quick bed partner, then it is imo.I am mentioning these for readers such as myself that visualize the story as it is read, because errors interrupt the flow.

Absolutely loved this book! This is my 1st read by this author and KALE had EVERYTHING I needed!! A strong MMC & FMC (loved Terra) witty, full of sarcasm and so much fun! On to Sunny I go!!!

Cee Bowerman is on my favorites list! A book comes out, and I am there for it. Kale and Terra's story is heartwarming and beautiful. Starting out as pen pals and falling in love with people, they are on the inside before you ever lay eyes on them is an awesome idea that worked out to perfection in this book. We got to see Lisa, Carlie, Sam, and Zeke, as well as meet the new cast of characters from the Kings! Amazing series that is not to be missed!

Another wonderful action packed and emotionally engaging visit with our favorite motorcycle clubs and families from Rojo, Texas. Loved it.

Kale and Terra’s story starts out with a perfect buildup as they meet as pen pals. While Terra waits to be released from prison, we meet Kale, his family, and their MC. I loved the anticipation and once they finally meet, the story takes off like a rocket.Most MC series focus so much on the darkness of the lifestyle. This book maintains a sense of danger without forcing you to lose connection to the characters. Kale and his family rock, even if they are a bit sociopathic.Terra is full of surprises. You start off liking her, but with every new situation, she becomes a more unique and lovable character. Kale is a growly man who is more fleshed out and well rounded than most MC heroes.In Kale, you get a little bit more of everything- more heart, more humor, more banter. Definitely going to read the whole series now!

Readers, I have to admit, I started this series on book six. I really enjoyed the characters, brotherhood, and the fiesty women that make these men feel.Kale review: This is one sexy, alpha, commanding man who takes no crap from anyone. You threaten, or hurt someone he loves, he will hunt you down. When he is asked to write to a women in prison, he realizes they have quite a few things in common.Terra: She has been in prison for ten years. Lisa, is her only friend. Lisa happens to be married to Zeke, a member of the Texas Kings MC. Lisa knows Terra and Kale could become something great, so she encourages both to start writing to each other.This book is a great start to the series. It has great bones. Readers will know what the MC is about, get a feel of some of the characters, and will enjoy this page turning book. I recommend this book

Kale was a good story with fun, crazy, sexy characters. I enjoyed this story and I can't wait to read which brother falls next. This is the third book I have read by this author...her storytelling keeps get better at every book but the editing needs to be really looked at. I understand that mistakes happen but they shouldn't happen so frequently. I hate when a character is speaking about another character but that name is written wrong.I enjoy reading Bowerman's stories she can write characters that ahave flaws and aren't perfect. Her stories revolve around a strong family values. Happy Reading!!
