The Reapers, 1

In a small tourist town, there is a secret. After years of being used and tormented, a small group rose up to take back their town, and to make sure no one took control from them again.

They’re known as … The Reapers. No one knows who they are, just that they are locals, and their identities will never be revealed.

For years, Daniel Long and Amy Flynn have been dancing around each other. Neither of them crossing that line of friendship into more. When a tourist refuses to take no for an answer, Daniel intervenes.

Amy has always had feelings for Daniel, but she refuses to jump into bed with any kind of random guy. She has seen the fallout from her best friend. She will not follow the same path.

However, she cannot hide nor deny the attraction she has for Daniel. The moment he kisses her, all bets are off. Amy is not going to pretend they are friends anymore.

Daniel has a secret. He doesn’t know if Amy will be able to handle it. No one messes with his town. No one hurts his woman. He is not afraid to do what is necessary. For he is a Reaper.

Be Warned: anal sex

 

Excerpt:

Daniel glanced around the streets as they walked up to Amy’s home, which he knew was her parents’ previous house. He knew she had rented her grandparents’ place, as she’d been too attached to sell it. He understood that. They were part of her family, and she wanted to hold onto them as long as possible.

They walked down the small driveway, which didn’t have a car. Amy was often found walking everywhere, and only ever drove the café’s van when she needed to. Most of her produce was sent to her.

He watched as she slid her key into the lock, and she stepped across the threshold. “You’re not a vampire, are you?” she asked.

Daniel laughed and leaned against the doorframe. “I guess the real question is, do you want me to be?”

She burst out laughing as he stepped over the threshold. “I’m sorry, that was so funny.”

He loved her laugh. It wasn’t fake nor did she hold back. It was a full stomach laugh. “I don’t even know why I find that so funny.”

“Was it because I dressed up as a vampire for Halloween last year?”

Amy stopped laughing and then sighed. “I had completely forgotten about that.”

“Martha told me I was too tan to be a vampire, not that she was complaining.”

“I bet. When the sun is out, and the beach is clear, that’s where you will find Martha. You might have a secret admirer.” She raised her brows a little higher as he took a step toward her.

She licked her lips and he couldn’t help but wonder if they were dry. Her mouth was tempting.

He closed the door, and now they were finally alone together. Daniel had never crossed this boundary, and he knew Amy didn’t get close to anyone.

“Dinner,” she said, but made no move to leave.

He stared at her, then he reached up and cupped her cheek, tilting her head back.

“Daniel?”

“I want to kiss you,” he said.

She didn’t say anything, but he knew Amy. He knew there was a chance of rejection here, but he couldn’t resist, so he moved in slowly, waiting for her to put a brake on it. Amy didn’t move. She didn’t make a sound.

And then, she ran her hands up his body, touching his chest, and circling his neck. That was a sign for him to go, and he slammed his lips down on hers, kissing her hard. Amy moaned, melting against him, and he ran his hands down her ass, gripping the fullness as he pulled her in close. He didn’t want to let her go, and at the first touch of those lips, he knew he was addicted and didn’t want to stop kissing her.

Sliding his tongue across her lips, he heard her sudden intake of breath, and then he plundered into her mouth, deepening the kiss.

Daniel hadn’t come to her home in the hope of having sex. He’d actually intended to eat dinner. Being in her home, with the scent of her surrounding him, he just couldn’t resist, and one kiss was not enough. It would never be enough for him. He had to have more.

More kisses.

More everything.

They started out slow, and that suddenly changed and he spun her around, pressing her up against the wall.

Amy let go of his neck, and at first he thought she was pushing him away, but then she gripped his shirt and began to tug it open. All too soon, she had his shirt off. Not that Daniel put up much of a fight.

Daniel grabbed her shirt and began to tug it up and over her head, tossing it to the side. Then he ran his hands down her waist, going straight toward her jeans.

“Wait, hold on,” Amy said, and she nibbled her lip as she stared at him.

Daniel waited, looking into her eyes.

She gazed back at him, and he expected her to put the brakes on, but then she took his hand, and much to his surprise, she led him upstairs to her bedroom.

The curtains were open, and she let him go to move toward the window and close them.

Then, she spun around to face him, lips pressed together, and she tilted her head to the side just slightly, looking at him.

I've read a lot of books written by Sam Crescent; she is one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of her books. This is the first book in the Reaper’s Series; it is a stand-alone book. The story is about Amy & Daniel; they’ve been friends for years although both have feelings for the other but have never crossed the line.

What a wonderful story We follow Amy and Daniel. He owns a bar called The Reaper and Amy owns Flynn's Diner. They are great . They both have feelings for each other but it takes a while before they are willing to admit it. When they take the step, they cannot enjoy it for long because someone comes along and tries to take what they can get while they have no right to it. A page tuner and definitely recommended!

Daniel and Amy
Written by kymagirl on 24th Jun 2024

The small town of Lost Creek looks after their own, as small towns do, though Lost Creek goes a little further with The Reapers, a secretive group that punishes with brutal efficiency when warranted. Amy (h), the owner of Flynn’s Café, cherishes her life in Lost Creek. But her world shifts when she grows closer to Daniel (H), the enigmatic owner of The Reaper bar, and things heat up between the two. Daniel is more than he seems—he’s a member of The Reapers, sworn to protect the town at any cost. As threats loom, Daniel and his fellow Reapers are ready to step up and do what needs to be done, especially when Amy’s safety is jeopardized. Loved that Amy could accept that there another side to Daniel's life that saw not just to her safety, but to the town's safety, maintaining a balance between order and chaos. Hot and steamy romance with a side of suspense and danger, exploring the complexities of love, loyalty, and protection in a small town.

A great start to a new series
Written by EPM on 24th Jun 2024

Great book in what looks like (hopefully) a new Sam Crescent world / series. An interesting premise, that there is a group of secret protectors for the town and people of Lost Creek, there are rumors that they exist, but you don't know for sure (unless you are in the know). I really liked Daniel and Amy, they were both just great people who would do anything for the people in their town and they perfectly suited each other. It was a quick read, however the book had plenty of steamy times and there was mystery and danger too.

A Reaper's Secret!
Written by Mary on 24th Jun 2024

This is the first story in the new "Reapers' series; a very promising series that is a little different. This is a fairly short and quick read with some passion, love, danger, suspense, family, community and much more. The tourist small town of Lost Creek was once a very dangerous place to live until one incident woke up the towns people. A secret society was formed to take back their town. Nobody but the Reaper members know who is in the secret group. The group stands up for and takes care of their own people and their town. This story is about Daniel and Amy. He owns the Reaper bar and she owns Flynn's cafe. They have danced around their attraction for each other for years until a tourist cannot take "no" for an answer. This is a really good story that was very addictive and completely drew me in. I love the characters! I cannot wait to see who the next story is about. I am hoping for Cyrus or August.

Coming together
Written by Redfaeryrose on 24th Jun 2024

The story has the atmosphere of a mafia story: the local men are always vigilant, watching for danger and doing what they need to do. The story focuses on the cafe and bar owner. It was fun watching these two finally come together after they were dancing around for each other for so long. I loved their love story, but of course, they still have to deal with a bit of a nuisance.

"He knew there was a chance of rejection here, but he couldn't resist."
Written by Anij on 24th Jun 2024

This spicy, hot, quick read is the first in a new series. It was too short to get into a lot of detail but still sucessfully introduced The Reapers, a group of secret local vigilantes who keep their hometown of Lost Creek and the people who live there safe. Daniel is their leader. He and Amy, the owner of the diner, have been friends for years. Both harboring a secret attraction to each other, they finally decide to take the first step, to the relief and happiness of the rest of the townsfolk. There's a sub-plot about a bad guy but the main focus is on Amy and Daniel's love story. They are so natural together it made me wonder why they took so long and wasted all the time they did. There are several interesting secondary characters that will obviously get their stories told, which should be equally fun. Ignore the slightly slow beginning and the occasional awkward language and just enjoy the story. I can't wait to see who's next!

AWESOME BOOK--Truly wonderful
Written by Andrea R on 24th Jun 2024

Each and every book I have read by this author is wonderful and that remains true in this one. The characters make such a wonderful couple and even though there is a little leg in the spiciness it is made up for in triplicate. The secret and bit of drama is so enjoyable it is just a really great book in a shorter story format--highly recommend.

Written by SeahawkGirl on 24th Jun 2024

Amy has always lived in the same town and has no desire to live anywhere else. She has a cafe and keeps busy with work. Daniel owns the local bar and has been watching Amy for a long time.

Amy has inadvertently drawn the anger of a bad guy when she rebuffs his attention. He starts to target Amy and Daniel must step in to help her. This was another good story from Sam Crescent and I look forward to reading more in this series.

Engaging series opener
Written by LBing on 24th Jun 2024

This was a fun series opener and friends to lovers romance. Amy and Daniel have been dancing around each other for years. They've known each other forever but Daniel has a BIG secret and, while Amy may guess he's part of the Reapers vigilante group, she doesn't KNOW he is until she's the target of a rejected tourist. With danger all around, and their hot chemistry blowing up, these two are really kept on their toes as they try to navigate a future together. Expect a steamy read filled with action and danger as you follow them to their happy ending. I'm definitely looking forward to the next book :D

I quite liked this one. It’s not angsty, which is what I tend to love but it was something new and fresh. I liked the idea of the somewhat secret society thing and how accepting Amy was of Daniel’s secrets. I can’t explain it but I just really really liked this book. Honestly looking forward to there hopefully being more in the series.

Written by Sarah ES on 24th Jun 2024

This book certainly caught my attention with new kind of smart baker as it seems. It’s awfully difficult to arrest someone if you can’t prove they’ve broken any laws. The protection of not just the club members old ladies, which is par for the course, they protect the entire town and manage to do almost completely anonymously!! Great book and looking forward to the next installment!!

Small Town Secret Society
Written by Michelle E on 24th Jun 2024

The plot of the book is unique, which makes it more engaging. I did not know what to expect next. Amy has lived in Lost Creek all of her life and loves it. She is the target of a crime, and the Reapers come to protect/support her. Daniel is a reaper who is a secret society that always monitors and protects the town. No one knows who the reapers are, and there are rumors that they are dangerous and scary. Daniel and Amy come together like a slow burn friends to lovers. An event pushes Daniel and Amy together and acknowledge their feelings for each other beyond friends. Well-written, unique, spicy, slow-burn friends to lovers.

Never know when the Reaper is coming
Written by Bookbunny on 24th Jun 2024

Daniel Long is a Reaper. No one in the town of Lost Creek knows who the Reapers are. They just know that they are always protecting the town and the people in it. No one comes to harm here. Amy Flynn has lived in the town all her life. She loves it here. When she becomes a target of vandalism, she didn’t expect the town to come out and support her. I do love that Daniel and Amy come together slowly. Yes the whole town knew they should be together but these two didn’t move at that pace. It was subtle. When a stranger causes Amy harm, THAT is when things heat up and we find out who the Reapers are. I love the idea of the town being protected and you never knew who the Reaper would be. Daniel and his crew kicked butt and we have a HEA. I wonder who would be the next to fall under the love spell.

Great story
Written by PHOENIX96 on 24th Jun 2024

Lost Creek may look like your ordinary tourist town, but its far from that. Amy and Daniel had known each other all their lives, and had been dancing around their feelings for one another. Amy owned a cafe and Daniel was a frequent customer, and the owner of the Reaper Bar, though that did little to hide who he truly was, and she wasnt blind to the towns rumors either but she hadnt seen that side of him. But one kiss is about to change everything between them. But when a rejected tourist targets Amy, Daniel steps in as her knight in shinning armour or to be more exact a Reaper out to protect what's his. Well written engaging, secret society/gang, steamy, action, violence and more .
