Conan - Kylie Hillman - Review






The first book in the highly anticipated prequel, spin off series to the International Bestselling Black Shamrocks MC Series is finally here!


“You know how the story ends. Now, it’s time to learn how it all began as Conan, Viking, Butch, Lenny, Doc, and the perennial bad guy, Beast finally have their say.”



Prospecting for the Black Shamrocks MC once Colin “Conan” Blake finished school was a no-brainer.

His best friends were prospecting.
His father was a ranking member.
Hell, every man he knew was part of the MC. 

The only thing the Club wanted in return for a lifetime of brotherhood was unquestioning loyalty. It was that straightforward. Patching in meant he vowed to put the needs of the Black Shamrocks in front of everything else—even his own desires.

​He thought it would be easy.
He was certain nothing could come between him and his brothers.
That was until he met her.

4.5 Stars 

I love an MC Romance, and Kylie's are raw, gritty, and full of emotion. All the books in the Black Shamrocks MC series, are interconnected and have strong familial ties, which instantly drew me to this book.  Conan features Colin aka Conan as a young prospect in the Black Shamrocks MC, and I loved going back to this prequel series, and seeing these characters as their younger selves.  Discovering the bond, friendship and loyalty this generation of the Black Shamrocks share intrigued me. 

I was completely captivated with Colin and Colleen's story, which is an emotional, and heartbreaking tale of love and betrayal.  Kylie has crafted characters that are complex, endearing and enigmatic.  Conan has been raised a biker, in the Black Shamrocks MC, but he's this amazing swoon-worthy, kind, and caring soul.  He is incredibly protective, and when his temper flares, you don't want to be caught in his cross hairs.  Colleen is such a relate-able and realistic character, who's own story is quite heartbreaking.  She is a perfect blend of vulnerability and strength, and really reflects the thoughts and actions of a young adult in their late teens. 

Conan is a well written, well paced read, that I didn't want to put down.   I found myself completely enthralled with this story, the twists and turns, danger, intrigue, suspense, angst and emotion kept me captivated.  Amongst the darker moments, there were even a few moments of humor where I found myself laughing out loud.  

I will be eagerly anticipating the rest of the Black Shamrocks MC: First Generation, and highly recommend this title to anyone who enjoys an MC romance, with depth, emotion or a slightly darker read.

Wife to a Harley riding, boating and fishing, four-wheel driving, quintessential Aussie bloke.
Mum to two crazy, adorable, and creative kids.
Crohn's Disease sufferer and awareness campaigner.
She’s also an avid tea drinker, a connoisseur of 80's/90's rock music, and is known for lacing everything she says with sarcasm and inappropriate innuendo.

Formerly working in finance, she was forced to reevaluate her plans for her life when severe Crohn's Disease brought her corporate career to a screeching halt. Restarting her childhood hobbies of writing and reading to alleviate the monotony of being sick and housebound, she found her calling and is enjoying life to the max. A typical day is spent in the "real" world where she hangs out with her awesome family and "book" world where she gets to chill with her fictional characters.

Kylie writes the books she wants to read. A lover of strong men who aren't perfect and aren't afraid to admit it, straight talking women who embrace their vulnerabilities, and real life gritty stories, she hopes these themes shine through her writing. An avid reader of all genres, Kylie hopes to release books that keep the reader on the edge of their seat- be it with suspense, heart-stopping thrills, or laughter.
