 My Shade's Lady Review . . . 
 It has felt like forever since I have read a Reaper's book so having this little gem fit the loss. And finally we get to read more about Shade, the MC national president. 
 Mandy has shitty luck when it comes to picking a man, but her upbringing didn't teach her differently. After Mandy is free of her loser ex-husband she finds herself hanging out with another loser, but that didn't stop her from crushing on Shade. But men like Shade are part of her new no-zone. 
 From the minute Shade saw Mandy he wanted more. Now he just has to convince Mandy that is worth the risk for at least one night together. 
 "Baby, you know damned well I have ulterior motives. I want to fuck you-think I've been clear on that point. But the fact is, you need a ride, I'm right here and either way the evening's gonna end the same. . . " 
 Mandy tries hard to fight her attraction to Shade, but gives in eventually. Especially after Shade is more nice guy than bad ass behind the leathers. However, the fight was fun to watch, even though we all knew there was no way she could hold out for long. 
 "Great attitude-too bad it doesn't work that way. You're done with him when he's done with you, not the other way around." 
 "I don't accept that." 
 "Well, this should be entertaining to watch," 
 Shade doesn't do relationships but there is something about Mandy that makes him understand his other MC brothers when the fall victim to love. This was a well balanced novella, with a good pace. We get to fall for Shade and Mandy without unnecessary angst. We get drama, fun, passion, hope, and love.
