Relationships can be difficult enough without throwing power exchange into the mix, and her books show characters who care enough about each other to fight to make the relationship work. Each couple in the Safeword series gives the reader a different take on the lifestyle.

Volume 1 and 2 successfully set the pace for the entire story, volume 3 was without a doubt, the perfect conclusion. Well worth the wait and all those darn cliffies.
Angelica has been safely rescued and returned to her loved ones. The trauma of the kidnapping leaves its residual claws in her. Making her emotions run amok with fear. Along with this fear, Bash and Angelica, need to learn how to relate to each other within their relationship. In the beginning, they started off being in sync with each other. But, that was the early stages of their coupling. Now that we can safely see the relationship mature, all the normal couple issues comes to the forefront. Especially that of communication. These two are so bull headed that they cause their own problems. At times, I wanted to knock them both out. But, with Bash, I did understand his issues. He has never been in a relationship, so for him, it's all new and a total culture shock. From being a loner and only having to think about his club. Transitioning into a relationship excluding the club, an with a female, can be difficult.
We see a lot of the issues throughout the series being resolved, secrets are revealed and Bash and Angelica both move on. Focusing on their relationship and the MC trials.
I must gush over how much I loved the paranormal mix into this contemporary biker novel. It was an added bonus, to learn about the shifters, and the varying parts they played in the story. Along with how the entire plot was affected. Well down, and uniquely thought out.
One of my major issues, with Volume 3 was Angelica's shooting of her kidnappers. I simply thought it was unrealistic. Along with her being a strong heroine, I couldn't quite understand her fears after the kidnapping. And in hindsight, with that topping off all the underlying plots, it seemed like over kill for the entire story.

Holy orgasm denial, Batman! Bash turns up the kink in this one with spankings on two very sensitive holes. This third book picks up right after the second. Thankfully the wait for me was minimal. This final book brings a satisfying conclusion to Bash and Angel's relationship. Of course, nothing is ever easy. First, Angel needs to be rescued. Next, nightmares from being helpless needs to be battled. Stupid male egos need to be soothed and then put into place. (Daddy is the best!) Then there is the issue of magics gone wild. Last but not least, there is a binding and wedding to make happen!
The pace of this story is nice and steady. There are good breaks between the painful sex. The plot is well written and hints at events for hopefully the NEXT book in the Only Human series. The characters in this story are still fabulous. Angel holds her own and kicks anyone who tries to force her into submission. Bash does as credible job of helping Angel trust him.
Angel and Bash's relationship requires a lot of trust from both of them. Angel sometimes has issues. Bash sometimes has issues. It's nice how Ms. Blevins shows how mistakes can happen. Then goes to explain the perception as well as how to "make it right". This is a culture where fists flying is an acceptable way to settle things. I like this because nowadays it feels like people have to talk things to death and still nothing is resolved.
There is one thing that bugged me in this story. Bash and his hang ups about being a monster. His issue with Angel killing men baffles me. For the record, in my opinion, being a sociopath isn't always a bad thing. Sociopaths are amoral - neither good or evil. I know several of them and I have no issues with sociopaths. They kind of turn me on. What is not so good are the sociopaths who are killers - the psychopaths will take everyone down with them. Those are the ones we avoid - like the crazy DA. Thomas turned into a crazy man. I don't get him. On to better things.
The sex in this book is soooo gooooddd. For someone who is not into heavy impact play, I loved everything Bash did to Angel. Ms. Blevins went light on the SM in this story which is nice. It shows she can do from light to hardcore. What really turned me on is the breathplay.
What I [Angel] didn’t expect, was for him [Bash] to rise up, cram his cock into my pussy, put his hand over the top of my throat so I couldn’t breathe, and tell me, “Not yet, Angelica. Don’t fight me. Let me restrict your air. Eye contact. Don’t look away, don’t look at the clock… eyes on me, that’s it. I’ll tell you when you can come…”
Black spots floated in my vision, and I wanted to fight him, to knock his hand loose so I could breathe, but my eyes were locked on his and his orders were law for me, in that moment, so when he said, “Now, Angelica. Come on my cock, squeeze me hard…” There was more, he said a lot more, but I didn’t hear much after that because my body let loose with an orgasm I truly thought might take my head off, and when he released my throat so I could pull more oxygen into my body, the headrush of it on top of the climax, and the fact he started fucking me full-tilt just as it all hit… My world imploded and exploded simultaneously, and I was the wolf and the human, his Princess and his Angelica.
I don’t know how he did it, but as the orgasm faded, he moved me to another position and angled in differently as he ordered me to come again, and I did. And when that one faded, he did it again. And again. I remember begging him not to make me come again, and I remember him ignoring me, and using his hands, or his cock, or his mouth, or a combination… and forcing yet another climax out of me. And another. It was after midnight before I finally lay peacefully in his arms, spent and exhausted, boneless, happy, and more in love than I’d ever thought possible.(loc. 2060-2072)
Good Lord have mercy. As someone who enjoys breathplay, this is exactly how I like it. I must have read this passage over several times.
I love this world Ms. Blevins builds. The characters are wonderful. I am so glad to see this side of Bash. He turned out to be a good guy even if I hated him in Brain. Each book in this series is highly recommended. This is a Beyotch - buy this book now!

So much has happened to Angelica since she moved to Chattanooga, first we have her dating the DA Thomas Pickering which turned out to be a HUGE mistake of EPIC proportions, then she and Bash admit their feelings to one another. In this the third and final book in their story we have so many things happening...first we need to deal with Mr. DA (and that is a BIGGIE), then Angelica gets kidnapped, then she is sort of rescued by one of the really good guys, Angelica begins a Female Run on the full moon, Angelica discovers powers that she never knew about, and if that wasn't enough Bash and Angelica take their relationship to a new level.
This was the perfect ending to Bash and Angelica's story.
I am looking forward to reading Teresa's story Indentured Freedom: Owned by the Vampire next.

Originally Read: November 26, 2015
Re-read: March 11, 2016
As a fan of Candace Blevin’s Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club series, I was pretty bummed when I saw that instead of one complete book, Bash’s book would be released in three installments. I really don’t like when this happens. I have no patience, hate waiting between books, and I detest cliffhangers. The total cost to me was $9.97 which is more than I generally pay. I did get 759 pages in total so I can swallow that cost, but it goes down hard.
With all three installments of Bash now released, I decided to re-read Duke and Brain before diving into Bash. Now that I’m done, I’m still trying to process what I just read. Ms. Blevins definitely added a lot more BDSM into Bash than she has previously in this series. At times I felt like I had stepped into one of her Safeword books which I liked, but went a bit beyond my BDSM comfort zone. Just a warning, Bash gets rough. Really, really rough. No doubt, a lot of the sex scenes were hot, but several made me a tad uncomfortable.
Volume III:
There was a lot going on in this installment, maybe too much. Angelica found her brain and she also found her inner badass. I loved her solution to the kidnapping. Bash and Angelica’s relationship had too much back and forth going on. At one point I was thinking someone needed to fish or cut bait, but for the love of God, just quit adding in issues. Then there was the whole Dawg thing (actually, I kind of liked that one!). Add in the police department problems, Randall and his crazy pack rules mess, and Teresa the abused wolf who’s decided to be a hooker….just trust me, it was a freaking lot to keep up with. By the time this final installment ended, I was happy but there was just sooooo much of it that it started dragging.
Bash’s story was good, I just think making it into three installments allowed room for a lot of content not pivotal to the plot. With the content edited down, we would have been left with a fantastic story presented in its entirety in one book. The edited content could then have made great starting points for future stories. Overall, I enjoyed it, I loved seeing old friends, and can’t wait to read the next one.

well,if this isn't "going out with a bang" then I don't know what is.
Candace has out-done herself with this one.
The third book in Bash story and 5th in the RTMC is the fireworks going out in style.
"Delicious hurt" - the point of the final book and the series, what it is all about.
Bash and Angelica have to recover, patch things up, deal with loose ends and come back together as one... can bikers have HEA ???? for the first time both Bash and Angelica are hoping for one.
But stuff just keeps coming at them, the test of the commitment and compatibility with each other in face of it all.
~o~
"...Could I trust her opinion of me as not being a monster, if she was one, too?"
~o~
you get all the glory of what can go wrong in the MC world, with supernatural being added into as spicing it up and you have the relationship drama evolving but no worries, Candace is keeping it real !!
~o~
“I’ll take mine off if you take yours off.”
Both of his eyebrows went towards his hairline and he gave me a cocky smile.
“You’ll take yours off even if mine stays on.”
~o~
Do Bash and Angela agree upon the ultimate trust and how does it change all the people around them ....
~o~
"...I need you to absorb them into your body, let the pain soak into your soul until you own it, until you own me as much as I own you...”
~o~
but all in all its a action driven story, laced with crime spice, a love story that evolves out of its original outline, a sizzling hot erotic romance with so much hot-damn-need-a-shower-and-a-cigarette-later lovin that you will be hook and get more and more dragged into this world that is taking place in Chattanooga.
~o~
“I wouldn’t mind a few fun spankings — I could even be a little bad, if you need me to…”
~o~
This is series is soo good, it gets better and better with each book that you keep asking yourself "how will she top this one" and she does, tops it every single time. Candace evolved with each book and as a fan its a delight to witness and enjoy the fruit of that hard work.
Can't wait to see what's next, and if you read this book you will find out :) (I've learned to be evil from her buahahah)

As anticipated from the ending of Volume II, this concluding third tome from the Bash series begins with high drama, suspense and some serious Kick-A$$ery from Angel. I can not give quite enough emphasis to the completeness of the Bash world/characters, and indeed, the RTMC series in general, but there is just so much jam-packed into this world that its hard to know what to rave about first.
As always, I love the strength of the main characters, especially the female character (Angel). She is smart and strong and secure, and is all of those things such that she can lean when she needs to. There is no silly affectation; quite the opposite, actually. And did I say smart?...
Bash is her equal in every way except...when he's not. I love the bits when he's not, just so we are clear. I stand in unabashed appreciation of the immovable Top! Who is a biker. And a wolf. Did I mention the words, "unabashed Top"?...
But for the most part it is the really, really smart plot I love. The machinations of this machine that is RTMC are not only a thing of beauty to watch unfold, but they never lose realism and/or believability, and as such, build and meld the wonderful plot with superior characters. The supernatural component ups the ante of each scenario because of course abilities and reactions are magnified, but a reader never wavers in the suspension of disbelief throughout the read. It is so perfectly conceived and executed, and utterly complete as an escape.
I am not a spoiler person, but suffice it to say that Ms. Blevins never *just* gives you a happy ending. There is always something that augments the main story arc while giving satisfying closure to the relationship aspect of the given story. Of course, sometimes the relationship, and all it entails, can surprise even the characters themselves...and I'm certain the climactic revelations in Bashdom will come to bear quite effectively in some future tome; when they are least expected and most needed.
As always, I love the strength of the main characters, especially the female character (Angel). She is smart and strong and secure, and is all of those things such that she can lean when she needs to. There is no silly affectation; quite the opposite, actually. And did I say smart?...
Bash is her equal in every way except...when he's not. I love the bits when he's not, just so we are clear. I stand in unabashed appreciation of the immovable Top! Who is a biker. And a wolf. Did I mention the words, "unabashed Top"?...
But for the most part it is the really, really smart plot I love. The machinations of this machine that is RTMC are not only a thing of beauty to watch unfold, but they never lose realism and/or believability, and as such, build and meld the wonderful plot with superior characters. The supernatural component ups the ante of each scenario because of course abilities and reactions are magnified, but a reader never wavers in the suspension of disbelief throughout the read. It is so perfectly conceived and executed, and utterly complete as an escape.
I am not a spoiler person, but suffice it to say that Ms. Blevins never *just* gives you a happy ending. There is always something that augments the main story arc while giving satisfying closure to the relationship aspect of the given story. Of course, sometimes the relationship, and all it entails, can surprise even the characters themselves...and I'm certain the climactic revelations in Bashdom will come to bear quite effectively in some future tome; when they are least expected and most needed.

The final Bash book didn't disappoint, though I'm sad it's over.
Who'd have thought Bash would find his romantic side? Much of the sex in this one is wild and kinky, dominant. But Bash can also be sweet and loving, and it made me fall for him even more.
The book isn't all sex, though. There's tons of action and adventure, good times with the MC, and politics with their allies and enemies.
If you haven't read any of the Rolling Thunder books, start with Duke, but be aware each book gets a little darker, and a little more intense.

This one picks up right where the last one left off. Angelica in trouble, but with the help of a new friend she manages to get herself out of trouble. She also leaves the knowledge that she is not one to be fucked with! The aftermath is a bit tricky. The police need to be brought in, but they can only be told so much. That was interesting to see them all walk the line and done pretty good.
I really liked Angelica meet with a group of women wolves and have a safe place to run. I wish that there would have been more of this, these growing friendships.
Things continue to go well with Bash and Angelica. There are some mis-steps, but often Dawg is there to help out. Although one time it did take Bud, Angelica's dad to point out some things. It was fun to see Bud relate to his daughter as a woman and one that has sex.
The really interesting things happened at the end. Changes were made within Bash and Angelica's relationship, good changes, but some odd side effects, one that brought the Pack into play. Things did get resolved, but there could be issues in the future, that remains to be seen.

Not at all sure why I love this author and this series so much but I every time I think I can walk away from not buying the next book....I race off to buy the next book in the series.
I thought Bash and Angelica were a really intriguing couple. I like them best so far and I'm surprised anyone surpassed Brain and Harmony in my list of strong couples from this series.
This trilogy is more kinky than some of the others but that totally works for me. Communication, though imperfect between Bash and Angelica is really solid because they work really, really hard at it and adding Dawg just made it all the more poignant to me.
I like the mix of strong women, brutal men and situations that just have to be dealt with that makes everyone stronger in different ways just makes this a great series.

Beware Spoiler Ahead
This was the third Bash book and the fifth book in the RTMC series. The book begins where the last one left off Angelica was kidnapped by one of the clubs enemies and almost raped she is saved by Marlin one of the other guys he doesn't want war with the RTMC so he returns her to the club. I love Angelica she is a kickass character and she is perfect for Bash she shot the five guys that kidnapped her and didn't think anything about it. Bash who has never been in a relationship has to learn to communicate with her. Bash punishes her by whipping her with a belt in front of the club and her dad Bud didn't take that to well so he and Bas duke it out. This book had a lot going on dealing with the DA Thomas who Angelica went out with was still trying to get back at her so Brain made his secret life as a Dom known the cops who were helping him they were all brought up on charges Thomas went to jail he threatened to sue Angelica. The sex scenes in this book were hot and the menage scenes with Dawg were also hot. This was a really good book when Bash and Angelica did the binding they discovered that she has a lot of power and Randall the Alpha of the local pack didn't like it and order her to either join his pack or leave the area when she refused he gave her a piece offer after she attacked him which didn't sit well with one of the pack members. This book was well written with no errors in grammar or spelling. I am so glad that Bash and Angelica got their happy ending

}{ARC received as a gift from the author for my honest review}{
Candace never ceases to amaze me, her talent keeps me looking forward to her next story. I've had the pleasure of reading everyone one of the Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club series, nothing has got old or boring but wonderful.
Bash and Angelica has issues still to work out, both have some hang ups to get over if they are going to move on. They've bumped heads on things that happened before meeting each other. I kinda wanted to smack them both (smiles) I think Bash shows how much he cares by bring in Dawg to mediate, Angelica isn't a week female and Bash needs to understand that, he does but his wolf doesnt always.
Angelica is still batteling the Feds and cops on top of bad Feds and bad cops. Though the law knows something isn't on the up and up they can't prove it. I liked the part with Angelica and the Alpha, and I loved the way Candace showed Angelica's personality, her sass and her strength.
Ive enjoyed all three of Bash's books and how they progressed. Love, anger, stubborness and a bit of danger. Some truely yummy bumpin and grindin and of course Alphaism in the bedroom at least. As much as I love Dawgs part in this, I feel sad for him. (just throwing that out there)
just an all around amazing book, you have to read the other two in the Bash series but it is so worth your time to do so. Recommended and very much enjoyed. Thank you Candace Blevins!

A totally satisfying conclusion to Bash & Angelica's story. I love that Bash improves, but doesn't completely loose his alpha-holeness. It's so much more realistic than the commonplace 'she saves him from himself' trope. I also like that what Angelica and Bash discover about their power as werewolves sets them up for cameos in coming novels. As with the other novels, the BDSM gets a little rough/intense for my taste, but remains believable.
Except for the abrupt cliffie at the end of Bash: Volume II, Ms. Blevins smooth transition from volume to volume, and POV to POV has the seamless grace of Cherise Sinclair or Lexi Blake.
I can't wait to read Horse. Having met Drake & Co in this final volume, I'm also adding The Dragon King to my TBR.

After being abducted by the enemy and returned to Bash and the MC, Angelica doesn't feel safe. The FBI is investigating and not all of it is truth. The DA is still trying to get revenge on the MC and Angelica. Even though it was another was another bad experience, Bash was there for her. They are closer then ever before and it clear that they are ready for binding. The local alpha doesn't like how strong the two are together and demand they break the binding or die.
Another great book in the last of the volumes. Loves the story, bit still not happy with how the author skimmed over major issues in the book. Its not she didn't close on them, just didn't go into them. Still enjoyed all the ups and downs and I'm a sucker for a happy ending! Five fangs!!!!!

I love Ms. Blevins' characters. She makes them seem so real. I expect to see them riding the motorcycles on the highway.
I hated for the end of the book. I tried to make it last as long as I could but I was wanting to see what was going to happen to Bash and Angelica, The ending was beautiful and fitting for those two. I can't wait to see what kind of woman that Dawg will find. She will have to be very special. I highly recommend all of Candace Blevins books and most especially the Bash trilogy. Enjoy folks it is one of the best.

Woot Woot Go Angelica!!! Ok she's officially my favorite Rolling Thunder heroine.....Bethany isn't Rolling Thunder so I can say that. Angelica is strong and tough and she isn't gonna let anyone run her down! I love the twists and turns and the wrap up of their very intense love story. I'd love to see all three parts in print....it would absolutely be on my keeper shelf!

I was gifted a copy of this book for review.
Brilliant Bash and Angelica have a very unconventional relationship. What I love about this series is that no matter what happens they come together again. It has steamy sex scenes but honestly they will not be for everyone. They are very intense. I love how this story ends and hope to see more.

I really hated some of the belting.

Not the best in Bash's story.....I think 3 books was too much.
January 21, 2021
I wanted to like this book more than I did, and that’s because of Bash and how the club overall handles women who do something wrong. First off, we never get to see Bash grovel/apologize/ or do anything for essentially throwing a tantrum and not only hurting Angelica but publicly humiliating her. That crap was glossed over too quickly. It set the stage for Angelica becoming quite a doormat with Bash. He wants to do something sexually, and not even warn her ahead of time, and she balks...then he threatens her with how he needs this and it could be a monogamy/relationship hard line. On top of this I’m really having a hard time with how the club, that claims to care about and respect women, handles women in the club that commit some offense. It seems like a lazy and abusive way to handle problems. There are ways to punish without physically harming and mentally abusing women who may not be in the best head space. Finally, the ending felt very anticlimactic. I am curious if the supernatural problem that arises at the end is an issue moving forward.

Intrigue, suspense, danger and that's just part of Angelica's story here. The DA has declared all out war on her and the RTMC.
Thankfully she has the club and Bash and friends at her back - even an FBI agent comes to her aid.
Bash is out to please his princess adding Dawg into their relationship but with very strict rules regarding conduct and behavior.
We met Bash's jealous side before but this goes over the top here when he finds out about things she never confided in him.
Some serious punishments ensue but Dawg who gets along with women better than Bash explains how to incorporate them into sex but it still gets way beyond kinky at times so be prepared.

Angelica & Bash Part III
Escape from the kidnapping, thank Goddess! Get help from good guy Fed & have nightmares, Bash gets help for her, & their love grows stronger every day. She's a strong wolf & so is Bash, they bump heads & Dawg helps to mediate so Bash doesn't mess up. ;-)
I'm loving this Mini Series of Bash's story. It's given us more insight into their relationship & I love that. Candace Blevins has a way with words & she can tell a story that makes you want to keep reading.
Enjoy!! Off to the Vampire story. Love how all the Series mix into each other.

3.8 I still don't like Bash though the story is pretty well told could have left out the sex scenes where he shamed her to do what he wanted so he could abuse her. Just cause shes wolf doesn't make it ok it still hurts. He is one sadistic S.O.B. He would quilt her to get what he wanted shaming her to believe she didn't love him if she didn't trust him to do what he wants. Otherwise, a good story though book two could have been left off. Parts of it could have been in first and then this book but AUthors today like to do that.

I remember reading another book by this author and thinking that her writing is good, but her type of kink is not my cup of tea. This still holds true.
I really enjoy the MC community and the overall context of the book, but some of the activities the characters are involved in don't make me tingle. I can accept the obsession with anal and the exhibitionism, but not the involvement of others in their sexual activities.
Overall, I think I should stick to more "traditional" couples, so I'll be skipping Horse's story.

I loved the emotion in this third installment as the story wraps up. With all the drama and excitement going on around them, this really took it down to the emotional connection between Bash and Angelica. They dug deep, they gave over, and they got what being together really meant to them. That aside, the moments between Bud and Angelica were some of the sweetest, most meaningful, father/daughter moments. The love between them as parent and child leapt off the pages, and settled warmly into my heart
Needless to say, I loved how Bash and Angelica figured everything out, and got their HEA!

Intense
This is one intense book from page one to the end. It is one that you'll not put down. Bash and Angelica's love continues to grow and they take it beyond normal. They prove their love in their action. I love how the RTMC comes together to protect their own and protect they do. You don't kidnap the president's daughter and get by with it. You need to read what happens. So so good. I loved how it ended.

Bash and Angelica
Bash and Angelica finally get together, so now they have to tell her father and the rest of the club. The DA Thomas has plans for the both of them and when she tells him their dating is over he wants to tear her life apart along with the club's. Bash says that he loves her, but his wolf needs to show her who is in charge. She is suddenly abducted and I can't wait for Bash and the rest of the guys to find out, and see what happens.

Ok I think this was a book too far because it just felt like she dragged the story out too long.
Yes its still hot af, panty meeting hot and the story is interesting but how many times do I need to read how much they love each other?
The scene with the anal flogging was bizarre, read a lot of bdsm books m never seen that before. All I kept thinking was she's gonna end up with external piles! It did zero for me.
Didn't need 3 books, elements of this story should have been meshed into book 2

Awesome!
Just another awesome story, Bash and Angelica are an awesome couple! I love how Candace keeps some of the other characters from the first books involved. It's nice to know how the others are doing too. She keeps you wanting more with her storylines, I can wait to read the next one!
