"That boy's crazy about you--it's cute. Like a pit bull crushing on a kitten." 
 The Reaper's series from Joanna Wylde is one of my not-so-guilty pleasures, and I was confident that I was going to like this new Silver Valley spin-off series. While the story focuses more on the romance between Puck and Becca and less on club business, there's still a good dose of MC debauchery to be had. 
 Silver Bastard is all about Puck and Becca. I wasn't sure about whether I liked Puck for a good part of the story, and Becca sorta got on my nerves a few times with her impulsive behavior, but by the end of the story I could see a certain charm about these two, so that worked for me. Really, they are made for each other. 
 The story revolves around Puck and Becca getting over some of their early history until the end when things take a very serious turn. Drugs, kidnapping, explosions -- yeah, there's a lot of action along with the romance in Silver Bastard. 
 Some familiar faces from the Reaper's series make an appearance too, and I always like that in a series and spin-off. 
 Silver Bastard is just right when you want to escape with characters that are a little rough around the edges, but have just that certain something that have you liking them anyway.Great start to the series.
