Another amazing read by the equally amazing author.. I absolutely love Kristen's MC series.. This is the next in line.. we get a little more from Ryan (Ax) and Cassie.. Last we saw Ax had left the Unacceptable's.. He was trying to do right by Cassie. They just found out that they were expecting.. This picks up just as they have had the little one.. Ryan may not be in the club anymore but he is still a brother and they will do what they need to do keep his new family safe.. but when the unknown threat shows at a family event and its left several injured, Ryan has no other option but to rejoin his brothers and eliminate the problem.

Will they find them? Who is behind this evil? Is anyone safe? You need to read to find out.

I love this short story of Cass and Ax and their family.nned more
March 18, 2018
When Ryan Axston finds out his girlfriend Cass is pregnant he knows it’s time to give up not only his role in the Unacceptables MC club. With how much violence has been thrown at the club lately, he feels it’s the only way to keep her and their unborn child safe. As the club reluctantly votes him out, they reaffirm that he and Cass will always be under their protection.

Things seem perfect, until Cass’s brother Nathan starts using again. When Cass throws a surprise birthday party for Ryan, Nathan’s trouble catches up with everyone and pulls Ryan and the Unacceptables back into action in order to keep their families safe.

I was really excited to see how Kristen Hope Mazzola would bring the Unacceptables world together with Susan Stoker’s Delta Force Heroes. I have to say I was a bit disappointed. While main characters from Susan’s world Fletch and Emily appear in the book, their role is extremely small and it doesn’t feel like the two worlds really combined at all . . . this book read as part of the Unacceptables MC series. I also felt a bit lost as I haven’t read all of the Unacceptables books and wasn’t sure about the past actions that caused Ryan to feel he needed to leave the club when he found out about Cass’s pregnancy. It felt disjointed to me and I really wanted more.

That being said, I do love the brotherhood of the club. Even though Ryan has left, he was still very much involved and when push came to shove, the Unacceptables had his back and would do anything to help him protect his family. 3.5 stars

Uncut is everything I've come to expect from this author. It's a great combination of sweet and sexy with a dash of danger thrown in. For such a quick read, there's a lot of emotion and that building tension of knowing something is coming is ever present. Ax is a brilliant contradiction - A sweet and sexy family man who changes diapers and treats his love like a queen, and an absolutely ruthless judge, jury, and executioner ready at moments notice to take care of business. Once again, Mazzola has taken all those things about the MC life that we're taught to deem unacceptable and paired them with a group of men who know what it means to be loyal and are willing to do whatever it takes to protect those close to them. Add in the women who accept them just as they are and it makes for one exciting read that is impossible to put down.

I was given an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. I'd never read anything by Kristen Hope Mazzola before, but she's definitely going on my TBR list! I wasn't sure if I'd be able to keep up with the story line given that this was a follow-up novella to another in a long series of (what I can tell, GREAT) books, but I had no problem. It's an excellent stand-alone.

Kristen does a fantastic job of reeling the reader in and keeping them interested. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was very impressed with the story line and the characters in this book. Really good story and a great way to get a taste for the MC series. I'll be leaving this review, then going to purchase more in the series! Great job, Kristen!

Another hit by Kristen Hope Mazzola! It was nice to see two great characters again and experience the next chapter in their love story. If you are a fan of the Unacceptables or the Delta Forces novellas, you can’t pass up this new tale!

Although this can be read as a stand-alone, I think I would have enjoyed it better if I had read the first books in the series. Saying that I did enjoy it. It was a short but packed with action. If you are a fan of MC stories than this is one for you.

I really enjoyed this short story, it's the first one I've read in this series and it has made me want to read the others in the series, that being said not having read the others left me at a disadvantage so I didn't feel like I could give it a higher rating than what I have. But I'm sure once I read the other books and get to jist with the characters, I really did love Ax and Cass and I think once I've read the others this rating would go higher. The writing was very good!

Within the pages of Uncut readers will find themselves reunited with their favorite couple from Undeniable, Ryan and Cassidy, and their new bundle of joy. When we were last with these two Ryan had made the excruciating decision to leave behind the club to create a safer future with the love of his life and their child. Leaving behind everything he knew to start a new life with Cassidy was the toughest thing he ever had to do, but the Unacceptables insured him that their would always be a spot open for him if he changed his mind. But he never thought reuniting with them would come so soon, or because of the danger threatening to take his family away..

Uncut is an emotionally charged tale that is sure to pull you in from the first page and hold you hostage until the last; with danger lurking on every page you can't help but be mesmerized with this one! I loved revisiting these two, I couldn't wait to see how the safer life their were seeking was treating them, and learn a little more about their reunion; what I wasn't expecting thought was the danger, so that was a nice little surprise. Have to say this one had some nice little surprises, lots of steamy times, and of course the heartfelt emotion I have come to expect with this series... definitely a fun, well rounded read! Highly recommend!

I requested an advanced copy of this title, and I am voluntarily leaving my honest opinion.

Oh, my word, Kristen Hope Mazzola has done it again!! This is my first read in the Unacceptables Series because I’m not a big fan of the MC genre. I know, I know, it’s really popular, but for some reason I usually just can’t get in it. I think it might be because it’s a little too violent for my tastes. This book is not. Now, I’m not going to lie and say that there’s no violence, because there is, but… I could handle it.
This is a short story, but it packs a real punch. Ryan, the VP of the Unacceptables has made one of the hardest decisions of his life and has walked away from the club to create a new life with Cassidy. Even though he left, he maintains his friendships with the other men and keeps in contact.
When the unthinkable happens at his birthday party, he and some of his former club members go after the men responsible and make sure they don’t do it again.
Ms. Mazzola’s writing is just so good, and the stories are so engaging that I usually end up reading the entire thing in just one sitting. I highly suggest any and all of her books, you won’t find a bad one in the bunch. She’s a prolific writer and writes different genres, so I’m sure that you’ll find something you’ll love.

Great Nugget if Goodness

When I heard Kristen Hope Mazzola was joining the Kindle World of one of my other favorite authors, Susan Stoker, I was so excited. I’ve always wanted to read her books but just had never been able to squeeze it in. This was a perfect chance for me to do so and I am so glad I did! This short read had everything I ever wanted. A return to a world to see how characters I had grown to love are doing and get to discover new characters and be excited about reading a new series.

Ryan and Cassidy have a love that makes any romance reader let out a happy sigh with a hand to their heart. It was supportive, patient, honest and filled with so much desire. I liked that Ryan can be loving and supportive one minute and badass doing anything for his family the next. It was just hot.

Cassidy was no slouch either. She stood her ground when she needed to but was a caring, loving wife at the end of the day.

I loved this book. Great characters, suspense and hot scenes? How could you go wrong.

This is the seventh book in this series. While they can be read as standalone books they better read in order. This is a quick read. This book focuses on Ax and his girl Cass again. He leaves the MC for his girl and the family they are building. This book picks up about a year after Ax leaves the MC. He felt leaving the MC was the right move. What he needed to do to be sure that his family would be safe. However, he is beginning to wonder if that was the right move. It was great getting to read about these characters again. I can’t say enough about how much I love this series. These characters are fantastic and they are always there for each other. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
I was given this book in return for an honest review.

It’s been a year since Ryan asked to be voted out of the Unacceptables so that he, Cass and their son could live a life free of the violence that they had been facing recently.

They are back to celebrate Ryan’s birthday when danger erupts due to Cass’s brother and it is like he never left as they all work together to ensure the safety of all their families.

I really liked these characters as Ryan was trying to do what was best for his family and Cass was so supportive of whatever he needed to do. This is a short novella however it is packed full of chemistry and action and it was great to catch up with the other members of the Unacceptables MC and the relationship that they all share.

Every time I pick up a book by Kristen Hope Mazzola I know I’m in for something amazing. As always, Uncut was perfection. Packed with incredible heat, beautiful love, and action that keeps you on the edge of your seat. She manages to pack what most people require hundreds of pages to do in a much shorter length, but still leaves you satisfied just as much.

I already fell in love with Ryan and Cassidy in Undeniable, but I fell even more in love with them while reading Uncut. They have this true, soul deep, down to your bones kind of love that just pours from the pages. Mix that in with moments that have you gasping and you’ve got the perfect quick read that has you dying for more!

Marie's Tempting Reads ARC Review:

A DARN INTENSE ROMANTIC SUSPENSE WITH A UNDENIABLY ATTRACTIVE AND BAD-ARSE HERO AND A FEISTY AND STUBBORN HEROINE!

WOW! Uncut was VERY VERY GOOD! It is written perfection with a strong plot, likable characters, a action packed story that has you sitting on the edge and with romance that is INSANELY HOT, I couldn't put it down! I love watching many of these authors play around in Susan Stoker's world and to see a hero who was a former Marine AND part of a MC was very sexy as well as very intriguing. It was indeed, an enjoyable read.

Uncut gets a SATISFYING FOUR SHOOTING STARS!

Uncut is Kristen Hope Mazzola’s contribution to Susan Stoker’s Special Forces Operation Alpha Kindle World series.
Ryan is ex-military and a former member of the Unacceptables MC. But he finds that he still needs his old MC brothers as well as some familiar characters from Stoker’s Delta Force team, when his birthday party is crashed by a rival MC out for revenge.
His wife Cass gets pregnant a year earlier, causing him to retire his cut, but he finds that his Unacceptable brothers still have his back. Though I would have liked to see more of the Delta Force boys in this novella, it was still an entertaining read.

Uncut is part of a Kindle Worlds series and was a quick Novella featuring characters from the "Unacceptables MC Series". Uncut is a followup to Undeniable and can be read as a stand-alone, but i think it will give a more fulfilling reading experience to read Undeniable first.

This novella shows the sacrifices one makes to be the person you want to be. It shows the tender side of a man and what he feels for his family. It has ALL THE FEELS. This story is like taking a scene out of a longer book as it has a full beginning, middle and end that leaves you wanting more, but not feeling short changed.

I love Kristen Hope Mazzola's way of sucking you into the world of MC. Her Unacceptable MC books are amazing quick reads that pull you right in. I love that In Uncut we get more Ryan and Cass. Watching Ryan "Ax" step back from his role in MC world for family life is so honorable. Cass is nothing but supportive all around and their love is so strong. You get an amazing continuation of their story in this one. You may leave the MC but the bond is always there with the brothers. Such an amazing read.

Uncut is book seven in the unacceptable MC series. This short story is a continuation of Ax and Cassidy’s story. After leaving his MC, Ax thought his life would settle down. Instead, it isn’t long until he is drawn back into the dangerous lifestyle.
His love for Cassidy and their son is clear to see. All he wants is for them to be safe.
I liked that Cassidy accepted what Ax wanted to and needed to do. She didn’t whine once. She just wanted her man to be happy.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and an easy read. I would recommend reading the previous books in this series.

Regret, Retaliation, Redemption, Respect

Life lessons to pass down to future generation and the code that Ryan (Ax) lives by. When he he leaves the table of the Unacceptables with the notion of keeping his family safe, he quickly understands that at the table or not, those he loves and cares about aren't necessarily safe. Ryan realizes that all things are possible when he is surrounded by his family. This is a short read that left a smile on my face.

Uncut is part of Kristen Hope Mazzola's series about the Unacceptables. I wouldn't read it as a standalone myself because I like knowing the history of these character and they're books all intertwine, but it could be read as such.

This short novella continues the story of Ax and Cass, and give a glimpse into the family life he left the Unacceptables for. How's that working out for him? You'll have to read to find out.

This was a very entertaining novella. The story was easy to get into and truth be told, I read it all in one sitting. I just wanted to keep going.
The secondary characters and crossover characters were great additions. This novella was written by Kristen and meant to showcase her characters while showing an intertwined relationship with Susan Stoker's series. I feel that she does a great job of this. My only regret is that it was over so quickly. Totally enjoyed the read.

Another great short read by Kristen Hope Mazzola! This is Ryan (Ax) and Cassie's story. You will get drama, revenge, love, and of course some steamy scenes. Great quick read. This is a great MC series. All books in the series can be read as a stand alone but they are definitely better read in order. Go grab this one!
March 20, 2018
Although this can be read as a stand alone, as someone who has read the first I was happy to get more from this couple. Kristen always does a great job delivering a great story and this one was no different. I really enjoyed catching up with these two and seeing how life away from the club is going and life with their new addition.

Now he may be out of the MC but life doesn't always go as planned and their will be action. If you are a fan of MC stories than this is one for you.

Quick read that pulled me right in from the beginning. I absolutely love her work especially when they are fast paced right from the beginning. I enjoyed reading this one. It was just the right paced with amazing characters that had great chemistry. Kristen did a great job writing this one. It was intriguing right from the beginning and had you holding on until the end. I enjoyed this and highly recommend reading it. Would love to read more.

It's nice to see a little catch up with Cassidy and Ryan.

After being together for awhile, life has settled into a good routine for our couple, but Ryan is still working with the Unacceptables, even if he isn't wearing the patches anymore. But, is it something that he can do and still keep his family doing?

I liked this one. It's a quick read, and you get a nice look at what's happening in the world of this particular chapter of the Unacceptables.

Kristen Hope Mazzola sure know how to bring you to your knees when she writes. Uncut is continues with the story of Ryan and Cass, he left the Unacceptables so that they could have a normal life as a family. As the story continues things takes a turn not in a good way.
Will everybody in his family be alright or will that be the end?
To find out you need to read this book!!

Great Story!

It was great to catch up with Ax and Cass!
Ax wanted a normal life with Cass so he left the Unacceptables.
Life doesn’t go as planned and his “brothers” are there to help him.
He realizes things are good with your family around you.
Uncut was a short read that I loved!
Kristen has written another great book!
