Book Shelf: Fallen Princess (Wind Dragons MC #7) by Chantal Fernando

From the New York Times bestselling author who “knows how to draw you in and keep you hooked” (Angela Graham, New York Times bestselling author) comes a compelling tale of family loyalty and budding romance starring the badass Clover Black as she is forced to choose between following her heart or keeping her family safe.

Growing up as the Princess of the Wind Dragons Motorcycle Club, Clover Black knows she’s had a thoroughly unique upbringing. As the daughter of the former President of the club, she’s expected to live a certain kind of life but she does the unthinkable…she goes to the police academy and becomes a cop. Without her family knowing.

After being assigned a new partner, the handsome Felix Banks, a friendship blossoms, but as Felix teaches her how to be a better cop, she finds herself falling for him, all while, struggling to keep her two lives separate. Tensions rise when the truth comes out and it becomes clear that Clover is being used for her motorcycle club ties.

As things heat up within the MC and at Clover’s job, she faces a difficult choice—her love for Felix and the law, or her family and the Wind Dragons. A steamy and unputdownable romance, Fallen Princess is perfect “for fans of Kristin Ashley, Julie Ann Walker, and Joanna Wylde, and those who are heartbroken that television’s Sons of Anarchy has ended” (Booklist).

Review: 

Fallen Princess is the 7th story in the Wind Dragon’s MC series by Chantal Fernando and follows Clover Black, the daughter of fan favourites Dex and Faye whose romance in the first novel kick-started this amazing series!

As the daughter of the former President of the Wind Dragon’s Motorcycle Club, Clover Black’s upbringing has been far from conventional. Though she knows the reputation surrounding the club, Clover has never known anything but love and family values from her large and boisterous family. They do expect a certain future for her which is why Clover has to keep her chosen profession and her dream from them……they’d never accept her being a cop. Yet that is what she has become and even though her first few months on the job haven’t been what she expected, Clover is determined to use her position to help people. If only her sarcastic attitude didn’t keep getting her into trouble. Enter Felix Banks, an up and coming young police officer, and Clover’s new partner. As Felix teaches her what it means to be a cop, Clover finds herself falling for him, but when her secrets come out, will Clover be forced to choose between the job, and man, she loves and the family she adores?

Fallen Princess is the novel long time readers have been eagerly awaiting as Chantal Fernando finally allows fans to delve into the heart and mind of Wind Dragons MC prodigal daughter Clover. We’ve known her as a baby and young girl, the apple of her parents (and all the other MC members) eye and now Clover is finally front and centre as she finds love herself.

It was really nice to have the opportunity to finally follow Clover. She’s a down to earth and well-rounded young woman who has been brought up to be able to look after and protect herself. She’s smart, savvy and sarcastic but also very sweet. I love that Clover is more than able to take care of herself and that she has taken a chance to pursue her dreams….even if they aren’t what people would have expected of her. It was ironic that the child of a biker became a cop.

The romance in Fallen Princess was wonderful too. I think Felix and Clover had lovely chemistry and I thought it was wonderful that Felix not only accepted who Clover was and where she’d come from, but that he made an effort to become a part of her life in connection to the MC. A cop walks into a bikers clubhouse…sounds like the start of a bad joke, but it was very entertaining to read about.

And in saying that, Chantal Fernando will please fans as she includes so many of all the brilliant characters from the earlier books in Fallen Princess. The older generation are still very much alive and kicking—and taking names too. Faye, Dex, Lana, Anna, Rake, Arrow, Trucker, Vinnie, Bailey, and others all appeared and brought so much fun and laughter to the novel with their antics.

A great read in what has always been such a solid and brilliant biker series, Fallen Princess proves once again why Chantal Fernando is one of the Queens of MC novels—in my eyes at least! Can’t wait to read whatever she releases next as she never fails to satify and thrill me!
