Executioners Series

Ghost (Book #1) - Amazon US | Amazon UK 

Blurb

Joker, what a misnomer, but Jackson Webb’s friends were idiots. He’d joined Executioners almost three years earlier after the lead singer King caught him playing his guitar behind his garage. It broke up the monotony of his life, but once he got bored, he’d move on to another distraction. He wasn’t nice. He sure as hell wasn’t friendly. He was what he was, his friends handled his attitude and standoffish nature just fine. At thirty-eight he was pretty sure he was too stuck in his ways to change shit now.

Demetri “Dem” Urban was settling into a new life in the middle of nowhere. Okay, he was hiding from everyone in a kitchen as far removed from his five-star kitchen back in New York as he could get. Gideon invited him to stay with him and his wife for a while just until he could get everything back on track. He didn’t see it happening, but he had to admit the scenery wasn’t bad even if the man had the personality of a rabid, man-eating bear. Dem did like a challenge and that fit Joker Webb perfectly.

Author's Note: This story contains scenes of a violent nature, mentions of rape and torture (All off page from characters pasts) and severe abuse. If you, as a reader, find this objectionable or triggering in any way, you can skip this story without losing the transition to the next book.

Author Bio

J.M. Dabney is a multi-genre author who writes mainly LGBT romance and fiction. She lives with a constant diverse cast of characters in her head. No matter their size, shape, race, etc. she lives for one purpose alone, and that’s to make sure she does them justice and give them the happily ever after they deserve. J.M. is dysfunction at its finest and she makes sure her characters are a beautiful kaleidoscope of crazy. There is nothing more she wants from telling her stories than to show that no matter the package the characters come in or the damage their pasts have done, that love is love. That normal is never normal and sometimes the so-called broken can still be amazing.

Just when I thought a JM Dabney book could not get any better, the author made a liar out of me and wrote another sure-fire winner with Joker, Executioners 2.

Jackson, aka Joker was a complex, introverted yet out-spoken character with a shy streak that endeared him to my heart.

Physically abused as a child, Joker became the defender of the weak and the champion of his “family”. Enter Demetri, lovely man with a purpose in life- get Joker’s attention and capture the man’s heart.

The persuasive banter between Dem and Joker was appealing and sensitive as each man found his way through the first stirrings of a budding relationship. Scarred and scared, Joker shied from intimacy, while Dem’s bold nature was a force to reckon with.

Ms. Dabney found common ground in her writing of the two men and their struggle to fit in to the world they created. Loving, captivating, and persuasive, the nuances from the character development left a smile on my face and my heart two times bigger. I wanted to wrap each man in my arms and keep them safe from the world. Thank you, Ms. Dabney, for doing just that.

Gideon Jane earned the name Ghost for his reclusive nature when he joined a group of guys in Powers, Georgia in a band called Executioners. It had been his way of settling into small town life after living in New York for the past twenty years. He loved the band and his small organic farm. What he didn’t love was being single, but it appeared it was his new reality. He didn’t want his ex back, although he did want something. What that was eluded him until the evening he walked into Nightingale’s Books.

Small town girl Harper Sage knew pain, and she’d lived with it—she had the scars both mental and physical to prove it. It would’ve been easier to hop in her car to find safety and anonymity, but Harper stayed to prove she was stronger than hurled fists and bruising prejudice. She found herself within the safety of a close-knit group of rough bikers and bar bouncers. That didn’t mean it was all perfect.

What’s a girl to do when she craves normalcy and acceptance: she just smiles. Choices are made, some with dire consequences and others that bring her closer to her dream. Will she make the right decision or finally discover escape is her best option?

Ghost by JM Dabney was a heart-wrenching beautifully written tale of love and acceptance. Reclusive Gideon left life in New York for small town Georgia life, new friends and new interests. What truly interested him was the lovely Harper, feminine and sweet, riddled with pain.

I must admit Ghost was one of only a few books I’ve read where the main character was transwoman, and I LOVED it! Gideon and Harper were wonderful together. Patient, kind, and full of love, the two captured each other’s hearts and mine.

Damaged characters with grit and hutzpah radiated through the written word as Ms. Dabney took us on the roller coaster ride of survival when the odds are against you.

Harper needed to find a sliver of happiness and Gideon brought that forward in spades. Ms. Dabney portrayed their flaws and setbacks as badges of honor~ each conquering the next obstacle yearning to find happiness. Success, Ms. Dabney! ~ accomplished with dignity and grace.

The first book in the new spinoff series, Executioners, Ghost hit it out of the park. If you haven’t treated yourself to a JM Dabney book, I highly recommend you do.

WELCOME TO BRAWLERS BAR…

If there was a way to destroy his life, Hunter Black could do it. He was a catastrophe waiting to happen. Survival was his only priority and having to leave his old life behind meant a job of the legal variety. He’d found one as a bartender at Brawlers Bar and a safe place in a huge house with the rest of the bar crew who quickly became the family he’d never had. The one thing

Hunter didn’t need was his old life tracking him down.

Deputy Wren Gramble hated his job and his weekend assignment of staking out a bar in the middle of nowhere waiting for drunks. Although he’d heard the homophobic and racist jokes going around about the crew and customers, he kept his head down and stuck to his job and nothing else. He despised being driven back into the closet, but he’d reached the end of the line, and he didn’t know what he’d do if he earned another transfer.

Linus Trenton was considered the normal one in his family and according to the weird ones that meant he should be punished daily. He never came out one way or another, if he found someone attractive, he was attracted. His life was complicated enough having a crush on the sweet and awkward Hunter, but now he had to throw Wren into the mix. Linus didn’t have time for dating or romance, most of the time he didn’t even think about having a sex life. Although, Wren and Hunter were ruining his calm.

Hunter was in lust with the handsome deputy the minute the man pulled him over, but a man like that wouldn’t give him the time of day. His friend, Linus, was another matter altogether. Hunter wanted both. His bosses made it work with their man, why couldn’t he? Could Hunter prove he wasn’t as much of a screw up as he appeared or would he have to call in backup to claim his men?

The Brawlers crew continued to grow in JM Dabney's fourth Brawlers serial, Hunter. I was thrilled with the addition of a ménage as Hunter, Wren, and Linus found friendship, companionship, and love.

Each man brought a particular facet to the budding relationship. Hunter, the soft-spoken peace maker, Linus, the gruff and sometimes petulant bear, and Wren, the deputy sandwiched between the two trying to be true to his chosen profession.

Ms. Dabney created a synergy between the three men which flowed through the story. The dynamics gave way to a substantial storyline- captivating this readers attention. With each book, I fell in love more so with each character. 

I look forward to seeing where Ms. Dabney takes us on the next Brawlers adventure. Her world building is captivating and flawless.

S.E.X. Review~ Bull by J.M. Dabney

Welcome to Brawlers Bar…

They said men only get better with age, distinguished and all that BS, but Archer “Bulletproof” Woods hadn’t gotten better. At fifty-six he was still as much an asshole as he’d been in his twenties and thirties, hell, maybe he was worse. Being a bouncer at a bar called Brawlers suited him just fine and he even tolerated the rest of the crew who’d taken up residence in his house when they’d had nowhere else to go. He was big, growly and homely that kept the parade of men passing through Brawlers at arm’s length for the past decade. One night changed all that.

What he’d thought was happily ever after turned into a nearly five year nightmare. Gregory Charles appeared to have it all, a successful business, sophistication, and a perfect marriage. His friend and best employee, Landon, begged him to come out to a friend’s bar to celebrate Landon’s anniversary. What could it hurt? A night without contemplating the hell that would come down on him the moment he served his husband with divorce papers would do him good. That is until he met the brooding older man staring into a whiskey straight ignoring everyone around him.

Watching for trouble was his job and Gregory screamed mistake as soon as the long, lean and handsome man sat down beside him. But he also knew when someone was in over their head and Gregory needed someone to watch his back. That someone was Bull, only time would tell if he’d have to fight Gregory as much as the man after him.

The Brawlers are back and Bull was the star of JM Dabney's third installment. Although each book can be read as a stand-alone, I highly recommend reading them in order to understand the full effect of the family dynamics.

Bull was the papa bear of the farm. Leading the charge for all those who lived under his roof and creating a social unite of gruff men, lovers, and extended family.

Gregory was a man in need of a new start and Bull was just the man to give him a new lease. Together Bull and Gregory were sexy and sensual. 

Ms. Dabney characterizes her men with abundant personalities and enigmatic lives- true to form, the men live and love hard.

The secondary characters- no longer secondary- were an integral part of the story. Children, in-laws, and loving partners- Bull was a spectacular read holding my attention and making me fall more in love with the men from Brawlers.

S.E.X. Review~ Psycho by JM Dabney

Welcome to Brawlers Bar…
 

Life wasn’t easy when you were certifiable, Gerald “Psycho” Clemons lived on the fringes of society. Five years he hadn’t thought twice about riding with a group who saw most laws as flexible. When the leader of the group turned crazier than Psycho he stepped in and made the man pay. He’d never been rewarded for his temper before, yet that’s what happened when he earned a permanent place and a job as a bouncer. Everyone walked a wide circle around him and he liked it that way. One look from his cold black eyes and he had people backing up. Then he met a man who had to be crazier than him. 
 

Decadence Bakery was Ben Morin’s dream come true and he loved it, but he grew tired of his lonely existence. Six months earlier he’d turned on the open sign and hopefully changed his life for the better. Ben loved his small cottage in the middle of nowhere even with the 3 a.m. rumbling of motorcycles and loud music at the farm next door. Although one thing he didn’t love was his new hobby of watching one of the terrifying men next door. What could a little harmless peek every now and then hurt?

Sweet and older wasn’t his type, but Psycho couldn’t deny the need to possess the beautiful baker. It was stronger than even the insanity he barely kept at bay, could he have a man who looked passed it or would Ben run like all the rest?

JM Dabney's Psycho was a fantastic addition to the Brawlers series. Psycho was a ruthless man with a wicked tongue and a penchant for bakery owner Ben.

Rough around the edges and always smart with his mouth, Ms. Dabney's portrayal of Psycho was humorous with a dose of raunchy and I LOVED him!

Ben and Psycho together were made for each other - the yin to the yang with a large dose of understanding on Ben's part- loving Psy- scars and all.

The world Ms. Dabney created in her Brawler series was hardened men who with the right person was capable of so much more.

The secondary characters added spice and familial love- a bond which could not be broken.

Psycho was the perfect read with flawed characters finding a place in the scary world of love.

S.E.X. Review~ Crave by JM Dabney

Welcome to Brawlers Bar… 

A quick pit stop for a comfortable bed to sleep turned into an eight-year stay. Vincent “Crave” Butler hit the road the day after college graduation and hadn’t looked behind him since. He’d swore to never stop moving, but the night he drove into Powers, Georgia changed the course of his life. He’d hit a bar called Brawlers with its rundown exterior and pride flag beside the door, the next day he had a job. Second in command to the Head of Brawler security, Crave found the place he didn’t have to run from. No one would call Crave sane. He lived to make people as uncomfortable as possible just for his own twisted amusement. That all changed when a certain cute as fuck bartender walked in for an interview. 

No one wanted Twitch Harrison around. He was small, femme and annoying on his best days, downright abhorrent on his bad ones. When college turned out to be a no-go, and the parents canceled his credit cards he’d needed a job. Walking into Brawlers, the roughest gay bar in his hometown, was like a game of pick the thing that didn’t belong—him. The two owners, Scary and Tank, hired him on and four years later he was still that thing that didn’t belong. No one made it more apparent than bouncer Crave Butler who didn’t hide the fact he barely tolerated Twitch’s presence. 

Crave threatened every man who thought they’d get the pretty Twitch but would Twitch rather be in their beds than his? Only one way to find out and he hoped Twitch was ready for forever because that’s what Crave was determined to have.

Crave- JM Dabney's first in her Brawlers series was a wonderful read. I loved not only the chemistry between Crave and Twitch but all the men from Brawlers and Twirled World Ink.

Crave (the man) was so well written that even when he was an a** and unlikeable, I liked him. The author brought his issues to the forefront with realism and sensitivity. Additionally, Twitch's portrayal was well-defined and his personality radiated throughout.

Ms. Dabney catapulted this reader into the homestead and life of this very eclectic family of burly Brawlers and the men they loved.

Each man brought something unique and special to the mix while keeping with the ingenuity of the story.

Sexy sex. Sexy men.
