A little bit of heaven is about to meet a whole lot of hell.

Excerpt
~Morgan~
Looking at my phone screen, I smile at the text in front of me.
I’m off 2nite. Movie @ ur house or mine?
Texting back, I tell my best friend I will be at her house after work with takeout. Working in a bank, I have every weekend off. Casey’s career path is far different than mine, though, and it is one that requires weekend time; as a result, this is the first Friday she has had off in a while.
My day drags on as I review current investment portfolios and market changes. I have the best job ever. I get paid to spend other people’s money as an investment broker here in South Beach. My life is sun, sand, and dollar bills.
Before going to Casey’s, I stop by my condo and change clothes. The down side to my job is the stuffy suits I have to wear: reasonable, past knee-length skirts, reasonable women’s dress pants, and reasonable button up shirts. I might hate them; yet, in a sad way, the dress code fits my life—reasonable.
It is not long into girl’s night before the difference in our lifestyle’s show.
“Damn, we’re not even halfway through the first movie, and you’re ready for bed? What the hell? Grandparents stay up later than you,” My best friend wakes me out of my doze.
“Sorry, some of us keep normal business hours.”
“Yeah, your hours scream forty-two, not twenty-four, as does everything else in your life.”
“I’m not that bad,” I protest half-heartedly. However, that voice of doubt says “maybe I am.” Maybe my stiff upbringing has rubbed off on me more than I care to admit.
My parents raised me to be an example. As the oldest of three, I had to be the light to guide my younger sisters, Madyson and Mallory. Everything with my parents was about fitting the mold, keeping up appearances. Their brainwashing worked to some degree. Going away to college did nothing for me in my attempt to escape my overbearing parents, either. No, they live in my head, every rule engraved into my brain matter. Too bad no one warned me there is no cure and no escape once they get those rules engrained into my very being.
Morgan Ann Powell: pathetic, stiff, borderline pseudo-old lady, and a college educated, suit wearing, have my shit together prude—that is me. I am, quite possibly, the only woman in her twenties who can count on one hand how many guys she has kissed. I am also a twenty-four-year-old virgin. I wouldn’t know what to do with a penis if it was given to me gift wrapped in Christmas paper and topped with a bow. I am not cut out for parties, guys, or any wild times, either. My destiny is to be the old lady who lives alone, feeding all the stray cats in the neighborhood.
Michel’s Review
Ice by Jessie Lane and Chelsea Camaron is the first book in the Regulators MC series.
What a fantastic start! The very first paragraph caught my attention and I was hooked to the end. This book had all the gritty elements readers expect from a biker romance. It was not a fluffy romance. This book also had a very unique flavor to it.
Ice is the president of the Regulators MC. He is retired special ops forces and now makes his own rules in life. He is also a single father of a sixteen year old daughter. Trying to be a good father and keep her heading in the right direction as well as running the Regulators is no easy task. We all know how sixteen year old girls can be. We all know teenagers can be defiant. Their choices are made on instant gratification rather than looking at the long term effects .
Morgan is an investment banker that lives a very quiet life. Her younger years were spent trying to please parents that had high expectations. It wasn’t because they wanted the best for her, it was about how the family appeared in the social circles. Being the oldest daughter put a lot of pressure on her. Her two younger sisters defied their parents to get their attention in hopes of getting their love. When Morgan’s younger sister is kicked out of their parents house , Morgan ends up taking her in.
Morgan’s sister and Ice’s daughter are best friends. They choose the wrong kinds of friends and end up in a world of trouble. Morgan’s sister ends up being kidnapped by a human trafficking ring. That trafficking ring is the very ring that the Regulators are trying to take down one piece at a time.
The situation brings Morgan and Ice into each others opposite worlds. As we all know, opposites do attract. Morgan and Ice find that they have more than teenagers in common. They have an undeniable chemistry. Together they are sizzling hot.
There is never a dull moment in this book. Action is taking place in many different ways. From the Regulators MC club and it’s members to the troublesome teenagers, a horrific human trafficking faction, and a red hot romance, this book is very busy. The great thing about it is that it works. There is never a hiccup or confusing moment. The story is fast paced, red hot, and touches the heart in many ways. The characters are larger than life.
I would highly recommend Ice. It will not disappoint.
I am looking forward to the next book in the Regulators series.

Her love for reading has sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in the works.

She hates being serious and is still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and, Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to always have fun.
