Title: Beautiful Outlaw
Series: Savage Outlaws MC #2
Author: Emily Minton
Genre: Adult, MC Romance
Release Date: November 16, 2014
After the last fourteen years of surviving as a walking, talking, living doll, Laura feels dead inside. 

She has sacrificed everything for her family, marrying a man she could never love. Her husband doesn’t beat her, doesn’t berate her. He transforms her, forcing her to live as a stand-in for his long dead wife. She stays silent as piece after piece of herself disappears, willing to do anything to protect the people she loves.

When his demands go too far, she finally tells her brother the ugly truth.

Wanting to protect her without putting the rest of their family at risk, he sends her to the one place he knows she’ll be safe. He places her into the hands of his best friend, Vice President of the Savage Outlaws MC.

Once again, she is transformed into someone new; Shay.

Bowie has spent many nights dreaming about his best friend’s little sister. The reality is so much sweeter than his dreams. He wants to be more for Shay, needs to protect her, but he’s not sure if he knows how.

Can an Outlaw show her how beautiful life should be?



Review by Bev


Outlaws Stars


Forced to marry at a young age to save her mother, Laura has been pretending to be someone else for years. No literally, her husband forces her to become like his deceased wife, even going as far as to call her by her name. She undergoes multiple surgeries and is forced to dress and act a certain way, to keep her psychotic husband happy. One day he pushes her too far and she finally goes to her brother for help.

Jeremy calls in his best friend and military buddy, Bowie. Bowie is the VP of the Outlaws MC, but knows Jeremy from when they served in the military together. Jeremy sends Laura to live with Bowie and provides her with a new identity: Shay. Bowie is more than eager to help the beautiful blonde he spent months fantasizing about while overseas. For months he listed to Jeremy tell stories about his fun, caring, and loving sister and he all he could think about was how perfect she was.

Bowie is more than surprised when an Ice Princess steps off the bus to meet him, instead of the girl he thought he knew. She is nothing like the vivacious girl he heard about and seen pictures of, no this girl looks like she is barely living.


Bowie decides he doesn’t have time for the prude and leaves her with is adopted mother, Nina, and sister, Rachel. There Shay begins to have family and friends. I loved how Nina and Rachel took her in and gave her a home.

Overtime, with help from Nina and Rachel, Shay starts to get her life back and she begins to find herself. Once Bowie sees Shay is back and no longer the frigid girl he met a few months ago he is suddenly interested again.


This story has MC drama and regular drama, but doesn’t really have couple drama - I really liked that aspect. The story focuses on the MC and the drama from Shay’s past, not on their actual relationship. Yes, the couple has growing pains, but it is more abut surviving and overcoming her past. Throw in the drama surrounding the MC, it was the perfect balance.

It is no secret I love MC books and I love Emily Minton’s books, so when I saw the two together I knew I had to read this one. I am very impressed with this one and already attached to some of the guys. I can’t wait for more!
