The Undercover Assassin
Quain Beaumont is paid to kill people and he’s good at it. When he’s contracted, for a hefty sum, to protect a district attorney’s son in New Gothenburg, he can’t say no. However, he doesn’t expect Barber to be such an attractive pain in the ass. Complicating matters, Barber is part of the Kings of Men MC. He can’t risk a romantic attraction to a target, but Barber’s charm makes it hard not to fall into bed with him.

The Shit-Stirring Biker
There’s nothing more exciting to Luke “Barber” Booth than pulling pranks and causing problems. The reactions he gets out of people keep his days interesting, even if it sometimes results in fist fights with his club brothers. His next-door business neighbor is no different. Quain is uptight, so Barber takes pleasure in annoying him, which ensures nearly daily visits from Quain to the barber shop. Quain might be a whiny hairstylist, but he’s beautiful. Barber is only too happy to take a bite out of him.

An Attempted Murder and Confessions
When there’s an attempt on Barber’s life, Quain does what he’s been paid to do—protect him—but Barber’s uncle and cousin are kidnapped instead. In order to set things right, Quain must admit the truth to Barber about his undercover status and assignment. To Barber’s disgust, they need to work together to get his family back. By the end of this mess, it’s not only their lives at risk, but their hearts, too.

Blood. Gore. Criminals. Romance.

M.D. Gregory loves it all. She believes everyone deserves to find love, even those characters with questionable motives. M.D. Gregory writes bloodier romances with more violence, kink, and bad boys. Her characters are not good guys. They live for danger and thrive on pain and retribution. But even those sorts of men fall in love, right?

She writes in various genres, from contemporary to fantasy, so no matter what your dark taste craves, you'll find it here.

Thrilling and Lovely!

Even though I bought this book as soon as it was released I am ashamed to say that I've only just had the time to read it. I knew it was going to be a great ride but I am still feeling the excitement of it all. Being pulled back into the world of New Gothenburg and The King of Men MC was exhilarating. I found Barber's story as intriguing as all the others. M.D. Gregory does not disappoint, ever. And I love that the other key characters are always around, reintroduced for those unlucky few who haven't read the other books or mentioned in passing so as you don't forget (as if you could). This is a beautiful series with plenty of action, passion, and characters you can fall in love with. From the other books, we knew Barber was a killer with a penchant for pulling pranks on his brothers. Like with Undertaker, I was waiting for his story and again I was not disappointed. If you haven't already started this series or haven't read this book yet, what are you waiting for?

Why do bad guys make for such amazing reads?!?! LOL!!! Quain, a Society assassin, and Barber, a MC biker are two bad guys who make quite an interesting couple. I loved the banter and quick snark of Barber and how no matter what Quain couldn’t resist his charm. Hot guys and equally hot sex...loved the thrill of the knife play!!

It took me a minute to get into this story because I wasn't as familiar with Barber as some of the other characters in this series. That being said, I enjoyed this story immensely. The characters stayed true to the arc of the story and who doesn't love a happy New Gothenburg ending. I'm not sure who's outlook and attitude on life I enjoyed more and laughed outloud several times, which I seldom do.

This book is eight in the Kings of Men series, focusing around Luke "Barber" Booth and Quain Beaumont.
Luke is a barber as well as a King, just running his business, till a prissy uptight hair stylist opens up a shop next door. Quain is a certified hair stylist/assasin that has been hired to protect Luke at all costs. Entertainment ensues.
I definitely found this book to be the funniest in the series. Quain is so upset at times that he finds his mark attractive, especially someone like Luke. Then you add in that everyone around them knows they want each other, it just makes it ten times funnier.
The story did not disappoint. It was well worth the read. We not only get to see Barber's evolution throughout but revisit with previous couples.
My only continuing criticism per Say is the connective plotline between the Clubs that runs in all the books. I would like to see that get more focus, see more fruition. The turf was war is interesting butit is just Kinda hanging there.

Is it weird if I say assassins are some of my favorite people? I love them and when you pair them with a member of a no-holds barred MC, I’m sold. “He was one of a kind and kept me on my toes in ways others hadn’t.” I’d say that goes quadruple for Quain and Barber and I loved every dangerous, sarcastic, droll bit of them. Apart they’re fantastic but together they thrill. If I wasn’t so scared, I’d want to move in with them—eh, I’ll risk it. They’re scorching, smart, skilled and my eyes couldn’t look away from their shenanigans or chaos. From their incredible connection to the way they fight, everyone else and each other, I was hooked. They’ll steal your heart and my guess is you’ll be wrapped around their fingers in no time.

Ooh Quain and Barber were downright delicious in this book. Of course every book in this series is done to perfection. I just want to live in New Gothenburg and be a part of the action. Luke doesn't realize he's being protected by Quain, a trained assassin, secretly hired by his father. He just thinks Quain is his annoying but hot work neighbor and loves to tease him while trying to get in his pants. Lots of laughable moments mixed with danger and hot steamy sex. If you haven't started this series you're missing out on some of the best mc books on the market today.

Odd couple works well

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2021

I enjoyed seeing Barber and Quain push each other's buttons so successfully. Opposites attract big time. It was hilarious to hear Quain's naivete (or hopeful naivete) in relation to KC's virginity. Dark ages much, Quain??? I liked Barber's effort in whooing Quain. They really are the odd couple, but they fit together well. Many memorable moments in here. That being said, I have to be honest about MY expectations met and unmet here. I kept waiting, with the turn of each page, but it fell just short of the home run I expected. Something was missing. The voice and words of the usual co-author and partner in crime was deadly silent and was painfully felt by this reader. It was a good read, but it would have been better (for me) if the two authors had played off each other as they have in many past books. That added spark was absent. I enjoyed and liked the book, but I wanted to love it.
I look forward to more King's adventures.

Love this series

Quain Beaumont is an assassin. Hes literally paid to kill people. The one and only job hes ever taken to protect a person, is the one where he falls head over gun for a man that drives him to either kiss him or shoot him, to shut him up.
Barber, has a massive secret from the Kings. Huge. But as he hasnt spoken to his father in years, he feels like the man is dead. Pity, that his father is the reason the cartel is after him. On the otherhand, his father is also the reason Quain is in Barbers life.

With Barber, Quain, does something hes vowed never to do, he introduces him to his family. Brings him into his life. Finds someone else to love, to crack open the wall around his heart..

Typical Kings story. Brilliant from start to finish! Loved the interaction of the Kings and introduction to KC, and KCs introduction to uncle Errol.

Hate the character, not the writer.

Reviewed in Canada on April 6, 2023

I've read most of the King's of m n and Killough company books.
I plan to read the Notes MC and the Reyes books as well.
The stories in first person do a good job of writing from the perspective and personality of the character and in Barber's case that's not a great thing when your character's personality can be summed up as a donut.
Pretty on the outside with nothing in the middle.

Luke has the mentality of a toddler on full meltdown mode and at times the simplistic writing and actions take me out of the scene and had me wanting to leave the book completely.

The only saving grace is that if Luke is a donut, Quain is a beignet. Full of sweetness and charm.

The book isn't terrible by any means- when Quain is in control- but it definitely wasn't my favorite that I've read.

Am I glad I finished it?
Eeehhh.
Can you live without it as a follower of the series? Absolutely. Besides a tie in to the Reyes cartel the interwoven plot of the series takes a backseat and the appearance of other characters is fun but l, just like Luke's head, the plot progression is empty and hollow.

Read, don't read it. I'm not your mother.
Thank god I'm not Luke's either.

On to the next one.

Deutlich besser aber...

In dieser Buchreihe gibt es exakt 2 Bücher, die wirklich nicht schlecht sind! Das mit dem undercover Fed und dieses hier! Kann man gut lesen, die Story ist auch nett! Aber... nach dem 100 Augenrollen wird es wirklich extrem nervig! Auch ist die Arroganz des sogenannten assassin etwas to mutch, hatte größer, besser, schneller und meiner ist größer als deiner! Die ab 18 Teile sind in allen Büchern gleich, wird auch langweilig! Vielleicht mal ein paar Filme im Netz anschauen und etwas Abwechslung finden! Oder mal bei anderen Autoren gucken!
