The Vincent in the Barn: Great Stories of Motorcycle Archaeology


Tom Cotter - 2009
    A friend or acquaintance says, “You know, there’s an old bike that’s been sitting in this garage for years.” The hunt is on. And rather than the usual worthless Hondazukimaha pile of hopeless oxidation, at the back of that barn you find a genuine classic, the motorcycle collector’s dream.The Vincent in the Barn tells forty such stories--tales of motorcycle hunting dreams come true. From Ducatis in basements to Vincents abandoned in sheds, Harleys in barns to Brit bikes moldering behind urban garages, these are the stories that fuel every motorcyclist’s fantasies. The only difference? They’re true.See Tom Cotter, author of Motorbooks “In the Barn” series, interviewed by Jay Leno on JayLenosGarage.com: http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/j...

Iron: A Motorcycle Club Romance (Southern Crows MC)


Kathryn Thomas - 2018
     TEAGAN This little garage is all I have left of my dead father. And Jay Healey is about to set it on fire. He thinks he can do whatever he wants. But just because he’s a gorgeous outlaw, doesn’t mean I’m just gonna roll over and take it from him. Until he makes me do exactly that. Pretending to be my boyfriend? Forcing me to accept his “protection?” It’s driving me d*mn near crazy. Mostly because, as infuriating as he is, the biker has staked a claim in my heart. My chest throbs every time he strolls in the garage. And when he pins me against the wall and kisses me fierce… I completely come apart. JAY I’ve got a war on my hands. I’m a veteran of the motorcycle club world, and I know firsthand how ugly these things can get. Men will suffer. Blood will be spilled. And if innocent little Teagan is caught in the crossfire, she’s as good as dead. That’s why I took her to my MC’s clubhouse – for her own safety. She doesn’t like it…. Not one bit. But that’ll change soon. Because as soon as I get my hands on her curves, she’s gonna be addicted to me. One taste of my iron rod, and she’s hooked for life. But after that first touch, things start changing faster than I can handle. I go back to her again and again. Maybe I’m the one with an addiction. All I know is this: If my enemies think they can come into my house and take my woman, they’d better think again. Because I’ll kill them all to protect what’s mine. IRON is a full-length, standalone, super steamy, bad boy motorcycle club romance novel from bestselling author KATHRYN THOMAS. This suspenseful, action-packed MC romance is intended for mature audiences, due to violence, strong language, dark themes and elements, and explicit intimate scenes. The romance between the alpha male bad boy and the fiery woman he can't resist ends with a guaranteed happily ever after (HEA) ending, has absolutely NO CHEATING, and does NOT include a cliffhanger of any kind.

The Original Wild Ones: Tales of the Boozefighters Motorcycle Club


Bill Hayes - 2005
    Motorcyclists, including members of the Boozefighters club, engaged in street racing and other raucous activities. A sensationalized report of the event ran in LIFE magazine, along with frightening (albeit posed) photos of the outlaws. Was the event (later portrayed in Marlon Brando's The Wild One) as wild as reported? Or, in truth, was it even wilder? The answer is found in this book filled with first-person accounts from past and present members of the Boozefighters and others on the scene. This is gripping narrative of a now-legendary event. It's a true story that is more interesting than the caricatured outlaw legend that has grown up around the name Hollister.

ALFA PI Series


Chelle Bliss - 2016
    As an added bonus, Throttle Me - Men of Inked #1 - is also included. Sinful Intent - Book #1 - Someone was after her and it was my duty to stop them. Never cross the line. That had always been my rule. But that was before Race True. The moment I saw her, I wanted her. But there was a problem. She wasn't just another pretty face--no, she was my first client at ALFA PI. My take-what-I-want attitude shouldn't include her, but how the hell can I be expected to keep my hands off? The danger that followed her had my protective instincts in overdrive. And as the clock ticked down, the choice was laid out before me: save her career or risk everything and have her in my bed. Could I put aside my wants for her needs? Or would my selfishness destroy everything in the process? Unlawful Desire - Book #2 - No matter how hard I tried to push her away, fate thrust us together again. Screw relationships. Simple worked. Feelings weren't on the line, hearts weren't able to be broken, and I could keep my life simple. My friends told me to move on and find the "one," but I wasn't ready to love again. Until I met her. A dirty-mouthed temptress with a killer body that had me questioning everything. I knew I could ruin her forever, but not without losing myself. I wouldn't do it. But Georgia Phillips was innocent, pure, and total perfection. I wouldn't be the one to strip her bare and break her heart. I swore I'd never call another woman mine, but that was before I almost lost her.

Grim: The Infernal Titans MC


J.J Cobban - 2016

Old Man on a Bike


Simon Gandolfi - 2008
    And why not?His wife may have plenty of reasons why not, but used to the intrepid septuagenarian's determination to complete any plan he comes up with, she shrugs her shoulders and waves him goodbye.At 73 years old, Simon Gandolfi sets off from Veracruz on the Gulf of Mexico to embark on a five and a half month journey culminating at 'the end of the world', Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego. For Simon this is a journey of discovery. Leaving behind the safety and sanctuary of friends and family, he is truly alone but along the way he meets and talks with rich and poor, old and young, officials and professionals, agricultural and industrial workers. This expertly written travelogue reveals not only the stories of those he meets, and his own, but also that of Latin America, its attitudes to itself, to the USA and the UK in the aftermath of the Iraq war and the realities of the poverty and endemic corruption throughout much of this continent.But whilst guide books often warn of thieves, corrupt police and border officials, Gandolfi writes of the incredible kindness and generosity he encounters, of hope and joy, understanding and new friendships, and ultimately, an old man's refusal to surrender to his years.'The journey begins tomorrow at 8 a.m with a flight from the UK to Boston. I fly Aer Lingus and have bought and will wear a green shirt and a Clancy Brothers Arran sweater in hope of an upgrade. I will be away from home for many months and I have a long long way to ride. Am I nervous? Yes. Scared? A little.'Simon Gandolfi, 18 April 2006Outrageously irresponsible and undeniably liberating, Gandolfi's travels will fire the imaginations of every traveller, young or old.
