I received an Advanced Reader Copy and am voluntarily reviewing it. This book makes me want to read all of the Devil's MC books. I picked this one up because it is book one of this branch of the Devil's MC but now I want to know about all of them. Rosemary is missing. Rosemary's friend, Jade, knows that there is something wrong but doesn't feel anyone is listening to her. Kevlar is listening. He and Rosemary spent one memorable night together. He wasn't willing to face his feelings that night and gave Rosemary the boot. He is ready to have another go at her and she is nowhere to be found.

Kevlar is the Sergeant at Arms for this new charter of the Devil's MC. What they don't find out until Rosemary's father and brother shows up is that Rosemary has been taken and put into the a fighting club. It's time for the Kevlar to go get his woman. The things Rosemary had to do will take a while to get out of her system. One thing that never left is her need for Kevlar. This man made her feel things she never felt and to finally see him after that night is bringing back memories.

The twists and turns in this book will give readers whiplash. Readers will also fall in love with all of the guys that put their lives on line for Rosemary. Kevlar will have readers melting. I was trying to not jump in the MC series books because I knew I would be hooked and want to devour them all and I was right. This book captured me and I have know more about these guys.1 Nikki'J'715 15

E.C. Land introduces a new club with Fighting Rosemary. This is a new charter of the Devil’s Riot MC, this is the Mississippi charter and as this club is made up of members from the other charters there are plenty of characters we already know. Primarily Viper and Cyprus (the Prez and VP of this charter) and their ol’ ladies.

We also know the main characters of this book. Kevlar (the Sargent of arms for the new charter) and who it to become his ol’ lady Rosemary. She is Jade’s (Viper’s ol’ lady) best friend.

I don’t remember a lot of Kevlar in the earlier books, he also was a prospect back then and had the name Fist which changed in Viper’s book. So, I can’t say I had much of a vibe about him from then but I did him quite a lot in his book. He wasn’t sure that he would claim Rosemary but even if his head hadn’t decided it seems his heart did. He was really great with Rosemary also after what she went through.

Rosemary is very tough and thank goodness she is because she is forced into an awful situation that she literally has to fight her way out of. Everything she goes through is designed to break her and while she fights to stay strong and survive there is no way that what she has to do is doing harm to her soul.
While I really enjoy these MC stories that E.C. Land writes I get frustrated with them too. They are fast paced, insta-love, plenty of drama and suspense, with some danger, and steam. A lot of the time the bad guy is interconnected across multiple charges and sometimes even clubs. It gets a little hard to keep track of what happened when and to who. Despite that, I get drawn in every time and want to read the next one.

.
.
Rosemary is having to fight for her very survival every day. If she doesn’t then her life will be over, literally. She doesn’t understand the reason she’s being forced into these fights or what the end will be but she’s not going to give up.

Kevlar, the other members of the club having been trying to find Rosemary. As Jade’s best friend Viper is determined to track her down for his ol’ lady. It’s been months though and no leads have them lost. When Jade tells them that her brother and father are about to arrive and that they are form an MC also it has the club worried. Big, her father and Cobra, her brother have a lead and they plan to get her back together.

Rosemary is sure she is seeing things when she spots Kevlar and it only seems to crush her further, but it’s not a dream and she is finally safe back with the club and even her father and brother. It’s Kevlar though who seems most protective.
“I’ll make things right, baby, swear it. Those fuckers will pay for what they did to you. All of them. I’ll burn them all.”

Kevlar’s made his decision and Rosemary is going to be his. He will take it slow and help her recover from everything she’s been through, but he won’t lose her again. He knows what he wants, and she is it.
‘I’ll beat back the demons for Rosemary, prove to her that the hells she’s endured can be overcome, and I’m it for her as she’s it for me. It can’t be any other way. I won’t let it.’

FIGHTING ROSEMARY is the first instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult DEVIL’S RIOT MC: MISSISSIPPI erotic, MC romance series, and instalment fifteen in the author’s Devil’s Riot MC: Originals world. This is SAA Calvin ‘Kevlar’ Bell, and underground fighter Rosemary’s second chance story line. FIGHTING ROSEMARY can be read as a stand alone but for back story I recommend reading VIPER’S TOUCH.


NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.


Told from several first person perspectives including Kevlar and Rosemary FIGHTING ROSEMARY follows the search and rescue of our story line heroine. Rosemary is an underground fighter who has been missing for several months but Kevlar and the Devil’s Riot MC were unaware of Rosemary’s disappearance, until her best friend reveals something is wrong.The arrival of Rosemary’s brother Cobra, and father Big, members of the Reckless Souls MC set a plan into motion that will reveal a long standing betrayal by someone they know. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Rosemary and Kevlar, and the potential fall-out as Rosemary struggles with Kevlar’s intentions, and the pain of what happened and why.


The world building focuses on the rescue of Rosemary, and the second chance between our story line couple. Following a one-night stand together Kevlar ghosted our story line heroine, and in the ensuing time Kevlar never forgot the woman who had stolen her heart. Upon her rescue, Kevlar will claim Rosemary as his own, something our heroine refuses to accept.


The relationship between Rosemary and Kevlar is that of second chances. Rosemary’s has suffered at the hands of her captor, forced to fight to save her life but Rosemary has a secret, a secret that keeps her fighting for the lives of everyone else. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text


There is a large ensemble cast of energetic, lively and aggressive secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Devil’s Riot MC, Reckless Souls MC (Cobra and Big), and those hunting and using our story line heroine. We are reintroduced to Viper and Jade (Viper’s Touch), Vulture, Cyprus, and Aries. The requisite evil has many faces.


FIGHTING ROSEMARY is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, family and friendships, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is dramatic and intense; the romance is seductive; the characters are desperate and determined.

Kevlar and Rosemary's journey will pull you in from beginning to end with all of the twists and turns and agonizing moments between them. Rosemary and Kevlar had a one night stand with no expectations of having a relationship, but Kevlar can't stop thinking of her even though he ghosted her.

Land has once again taken her readers on a dark, emotional journey full of MC drama, loyalty and love as you become one with the main characters. This is a must read, can't wait for the next book in this new series. Susana Sousa453 2



Great start for the Mississipi Chapter!

Fighting Rosemary is the first installment in the i Mississipi Chapter of the Devil's Riot MC, Kevlar and Rosemary' story.
This new Chapter is composed of several members of other Devil's Riot Chapters and, as so, some of the secondary characters in this account already saw their stories told in other Series. E.C. Land is a new to me author and this is my very first read, but certainly won't be my last! This tale opened my spirits and I'll do my dilligences and go back to read about all those mentioned and not.

Fighting Rosemary portrays exactly what MCs are made of: a brotherhood built on trust, loyalty and protection of the brothers and their significant others. A family in all its essence, for most of them, not by blood but by recognition and respect.

I d a lot of things about this first book: the hierarchy, consideration and regard, the thoughts and concocted strategies, the morally gray and hearts of gold. A true atmosphere for MC romance. I loved the guys, their support, their alpha attitude regarding their territory and their readiness to solve the matters at hand.
Kevlar and Rosemary had history and, imo, the feelings were a bit abrupt when they noticed her absence and started planing the rescue. I would have seriously enjoyed some kind of prologue about their initial entanglement and ultimate result, just to get me going into their present story.

The plot flowed fast and furious, a bit too much, and everytime some kind of high was starting to build, it ended too sudden.
And when all was said, the plan in motion, the demands in place as well as the yieldings and the utmost battle set, it happenned in four or five sentences. I need the rush and adrenaline, the peak and its explosion, a victory under duress and I didn't see it. It was just told. And that is the reason I took 1 star out of my rating of the book.
It felt to me that some parts of this narrative needed a bit more development and 70 or 80 oages more would've done it superb!

Nevertheless, a very enjoyable read! Rebel Devlin205 6

Fighting Rosemary was an exciting start to the Devil's Riot MC: Mississippi Chapter by E.C. Land. It's a second chance romance rollercoaster ride. It had me rooting for the heroine and feeling for everything she went through.
Kevlar was transferred to the new chapter in Mississippi to be the SAA. While guys from all the chapters moved there to get everything set up, they were still looking for Jade's best friend, Rosemary. Kevlar messed up big with Rosemary and hasn't had a chance to make it up to her since she disappeared without a trace. Rosemary has trained to be a boxer her whole life and loves teaching it instead of getting in the ring herself until she is taken and forced to. Every time she's forced into the ring she loses a piece of herself and soon she's afraid there won't be anything left of her. Rosemary has alot of secrets and the only way to help find her and get her back is for Jade to tell them. Once they come out and her family shows up they finally have something to go on and a way to find her. But can they get her back in time?
I gave this a 5-star rating and a 4-spicy rating. Rosemary is a remarkable woman to have gone through all she has in life with the cards stacked against her she didn't stand a chance to avoid the inevitable. Kevlar showed he can actually be a man and own up to his mistakes and fight for what he wants and boy does he. The way the whole club came together as one to rally around Kevlar and Rosemary shows this chapter does have a chance. Aries book is next and from the bonus scene, more trouble is headed their way!

Fighting for survival, for a future and for love

Fighting Rosemary is the first book in the new Devil's Riot MC Mississippi series, a spin-off of the other DRMC series. This is a solid beginning to the new club series and the various characters. Be warned that there are a number of characters from other DRMC chapters that are in this book, some who have already had their books written. The story centers around Rosemary and Kevlar. This story does have darker and somewhat unsettling details in the story-line. Rosemary is kidnapped outside the gym where she helps teach and trains boxers. She has been missing for several months before someone really takes notice that she is gone, which to me did not make a lot of sense but I went with the premise. She was taken by a man who holds underground fights that are death matches. She is put into the cage and must do everything she can to survive. But there are those that will fight to rescue her once they figure things out. Kevlar is one of those men as he still cannot get her off his mind after one night together. When they finally get her back what will happen as she heals and has to try and work through all the trauma and abuse she went through. Kevlar will be there by her side, ensuring she gets what she needs, even if she does not want him at the moment. But he has claimed her as his and he is not backing down on this, even if he has to fight Rosemary to get their future. Barbara2,324 50

Thrilling, Suspenseful MC Read!


Loved this start to a new Devil’s Riot Chapter. Ms. Land has given us MC romance readers a fast paced, suspenseful, action packed romance that is well written with wonderful characters. My one complaint was the ending felt a little rushed compared to the rest of the book. However, it Did Not take away from the storyline or excitement for the book, (therefore I’d actually say 4.5 stars but since I can’t post the ½ I gave it 5 stars). Also note due a couple areas of the book, there may be triggers for some. As for this reader I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I loved the protective nature of the club as well as Kevlar, when it came to Rosemary. He was not going to let anything or anyone stand in his way of protecting and claiming what was his. Not her enemies, her family or ever Rosemary herself with her stubborn nature.

I highly recommend grabbing it up and getting in from the start of the new Chapter of the Devil’s Riot MC.


2 Thumbs up and 4.5 Stars
Phyllis Wolford1,532

Another hit out of the park for Ms. Land. The characters are so intense and so likable, you can’t not keep reading about them.
Kevlar and Rosemary had a night together and then Kevlar made a butt out of himself and sent her away. He is trying to run from his feelings for her, but they soon catch up with him when she is taken.
Rosie has been taken and is basically physiologically abused and is forced to fight in the death fights, to protect her son and the people she cares about.
When her father and brother come to town and has info about where she is and what is happening, the club and her family rescue her and Kevlar gets his out in to fresh air and claims her.
The trouble is still in the background, but Rosie is the one that everyone is trying to help. She is traumatized and physiologically checked out. Kevlar and the club work on her and then Kevlar tells her she is his and that she just needs to get use to it.
Eventually they both admit their feelings and Kevlar takes out the threat and they have a good life together. Marlene Davis1,025 4

This is a great start to the new charter of the DRMC. If you read the Originals series, you will know that Stoney and the other Prez’s’ of the club have decided to have a new charter in MS and the Viper is to be Prez and Cyprus the new VP. There will also be other members from the other charters going to MS, so you will see familiar faces. Kevlar is the new SAA and got his name for what happened between him and Rosie months ago. Kevlar has a lot of work to do to help Rosie overcome what has happened to her the months she was gone. This is action packed, fast paced, suspenseful, and there is some drama, angst, secrets, revelations and twisty turns that I wasn’t expecting. Get sucked into a new charter that is going to be darker than the other charter. I can’t wait to see where E.C. takes these guys and the women who are strong willed, feisty and fighters. Wendy Livingstone17.4k 211

This is the first in a new series, and this is Kevlar and Rosemary’s journey.
Kevlar is the SAA for his MC, and he never thought he would want to settle with one women, until he met Rosemary. Rosemary is feisty and stubborn, and trained to be a boxer, and my heart broke for her after all she endured in life. Kevlar proves that he can man up and take ownerships of his mistakes and will fight for what he wants.
This is a well written action packed, emotionally charged story, with danger, suspense, intrigue, family, friendships, secrets, romance, and love, which leads to an entertaining, tragic, unpredictable, twisted, and a steamy page turner, which had me on tenterhooks throughout.

I really struggled to finish this book. While the blurb sounded really good, the book didn’t live up to what I expected. Kevlar had me rolling my eyes a lot. Rosie & Kevlar spent one night together & he kicked her out immediately the next day, when she tried approaching him again he was rude to her & kicked her out. They don’t see each other for awhile, even though her bestie is w/the clubs prez, then she’s kidnapped for months & no one can find out anything. By then Rosie’s dad (who’s pres of another mc) & brother find out & comes to town to find out what’s going on. It takes one night for them to locate & rescue Rosie. Kevlar decides she’s his woman & claims her, even tells her they never stopped looking for her!
I just couldn’t with this book. And it ended so abruptly. dark-romance mc romance casvec7,086 71

I love reading this author. The MC stories are not for the faint of heart, the dept and pain the characters go through has you taking a moment to stop and think.

On the move to start a new charter in Mississippi, Rosemary is taken. They MC never stops looking for her, but it takes time. Rosemary is found while she is fighting in death matches.

Kevlar and Rosemary had a night, but to him she was getting too close, and he did not want to admit the truth. Instead, he became a douche and pushed her away. Now that they found her, he will do anything to protect her.

Definitely a story that has a number of twist and turns that keeps you on the edge and has your mind spinning.

Fighting Rosemary is a wonderful start to this new chapter. What Rosemary was forced to go through and do, you felt down to your soul. You understood how a pieces of her soul broke each time. Kevlar was wonderful in handling her, but I wish some of the club brothers treated her softer after Kevlar made his decision. I know it’s hard for men to understand a women’s mind but I wish they would have given her a little but if softness for all she’s endured. Overall, I’m excited to go on this ride with this new chapter.
