Rough & Real (Notorious Devils Book 7) Kindle Edition
West “Camo” Gaines has never wanted anyone the way he wants his wife, but the Notorious Devils’ club life has opened his eyes and awakened a desire he knows he can’t explore with the mother of his children.
Lies, misunderstanding, betrayal and silence are the bitter pills they swallow daily as the marriage they thought would last forever begins to unravel. It isn’t until club rivalries threaten to shatter their entire world that they realize how much they have to fight for.
When things get rough and real, they’re forced to remember just how deep their love goes.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2025Great read! Thank you so much for the entertainment. I’m ready to read all the others… no need to really read them in order
- Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2025I went into this expecting something different. I kept thinking “he’s going to cheat, these MC guys always do”, but I was not prepared for that twist. I mean one after another. 🤯🤯🤯 But it was worth the read. The short novella about Rosalie wasn’t bad either. I hope to read more about her and Baileys journey. Ivy is a strong fmc, even stronger to compromise. Camo needs to communicate, or learn how to. The spice was decent, new somewhat but good. I recommend.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2018This is the last book in the Notorious Devils series and, as the title mentions, it is real. As real as it can get. And I loved every second of it!!! I couldn’t get enough and I didn’t want it to ever end!!!
As a very dedicated fan of the series, I loved West/Camo and Ivy from the very beginning. They were always the steady couple in a sea of club whores and craziness. Everybody else was going crazy with their own drama and pairing up, one by one, and there were West and Ivy, all bubblegum love. At the end of book 6 we get a little bit of an idea of where West’s head is, and you really want to slap him upside the head to get his $hit together. And now we get to their story. They have been together for 15 years, have 3 kids, and life should be good. Except that West starts getting crazy ideas in his head that he feels that he cannot share with Ivy, even though he still loves her very much. He ends up breaking her heart and then she ends up with crazy ideas in her head that end up leading them to a lot of drama.
The way their story developed was very natural. Things are bound to change in a marriage after so many years, and lack of communication will destroy even the best of us. It was sad at times, it really broke my heart and I felt like I could relate to most of the thoughts going through both West and Ivy’s heads. It was also cute and funny in parts, and downright shocking in others. I really loved the whole package.
There is a novella at the end of this book that was just too sweet and hot for words. And it really made me want more of all these guys. I am not ready to let go!!!
This book can be read as a stand-alone, but it is so much better when you read all the previous books, and you got to meet these characters when they were young and with stars on their eyes.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2018I am so in love with this series and it’s sad to see it send. This is Ivy and West’s story. This is them 15 years after we first met them a few books ago. This book resonated so much to me because I have been where the mindset she is in. She feels like she is a mom and has gained some mom pounds. I have to say I did not see West acting like a douche canoe because from the other books you don’t get that from him. I wanted to slap him, then shake him, then hug him. Ivy. Gotta say there was a moment where my jaw was on the floor because I was not expecting that! I love this entire series and Hayley is one of my favorite authors. Such a great read. You won’t be disappointed. Now to move on to her other series.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2021I can't lie I loved Camo through the entire series, but holy cow did I hate him in this book! He was one of the worst and honestly I'll probably only re-read his book for the short at the end.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2019Ivy and west story is heartbreaking but overall amazing. At first love seemed to be everything but was it truly enough. It had me at tears and at a point wanted to trow my cell lol. West fault !!! I just love how Ivy is such a strong, sweet and loving mother and wife. That would do anything for her family no matter the cost. Some many ups and downs but at the end everything is worth it . I truly recommend this series and mostly rough and real. I love all the old lady by ivy has been on my favorite.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2018This was different than other stories you usually read. West and Ivy have known each other a long time, been married a long time, and have kids. But then life happens and they grow apart. I really enjoyed reading about their struggles and how they got back there. Also there's a novella at the end which I just adored about Rosalie and Riley.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2019This whole series is really good. I wasn’t sure at first, but they honestly just kept getting better. This is definitely a rougher group of guys, hence the titles haha. It’s not a nice guy MC. All the guys start off being frustrating jerks but end up being awesome. They’re all really entertaining and full of drama, hard to put down. Loved getting to see parts of the next generation in this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 stars
I loved this book. It was so raw and real and had me reflecting on so much in my life. I'm glad West and I've got their issues sorted out. I loved the Novella at the end as well. I'd love for more from the Notorious Devils.

5.0 out of 5 stars Da leggere
Degna conclusione di una serie che ho adorato. I Devils sono tutti degni di nota, ma questo libro è speciale, perché parla di una coppia consolidata, sposata da molti anni, che tuttavia non si è ancora conosciuta completamente.
Se si sceglie di guardare da un'altra parte, se non si prova a capirsi, a cercare un punto d'incontro, anche gli amori più forti possono finire. Camo e Ivy invece, tra mille difficoltà e molti fraintendimenti, sapranno riscoprire se stessi e il loro amore.

5.0 out of 5 stars So much hot action, don't miss this Notorious Devils book
So much seemed to happen in this book that I am quite shocked that it has finished. All the story lines were awesome, but just a great deal more than expected. West/Camo and his wife Ivy, were previously support characters who really had little importance until now. They've been married for about 15 years, have a 13 year old daughter & 2 boys who are 10 & 8. Their marriage has been boring for a while but they have slipped into convenient nightly sex & she is a stay-at-home mother. Now West is drinking a lot more & staying at the clubhouse on a regular basis.
Hayley Faimin's writes a story that is always entertaining, with plenty of action and plenty of hot sex; there is no point in denying the steaminess of her characters attraction to each other but it's not all of the story. Her characters live real lives, face problems and suffer all those shortcomings most of us experience in our own lives. This is why I keep coming back to her writing. If she's not on your go to list of authors then checkout one of her books; she will not be a disappointment. If you already know the Notorious Devils,, then buy it now because there is so much going on you don't want to miss out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing
I really enjoyed tis book, it showed that with time, age and experience our wants change. The book portrayed how the definition of what a marriage should be is completely unique to each couple. The story was exciting and kept me enthralled the whole time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Done it again!!
