The Lean Dogs MC has long been a haven for the outlaws, the rebels, the ill-adjusted, and the outright monsters of Knoxville, Tennessee. They are a dark, dangerous brand of misfit, etched with ink, splattered with blood, and vilified by the town they call home. The only laws they follow are the ones set down in the club charter by their leather-clad forefathers. But some outlaws have secrets they can't even share with their club brothers. The Lean Dogs call him "Tango," but once upon a time Kevin Estes went by "Loverboy." It's a past his club could never understand, one that's going to kill him. Loverboy is the fifth full-length installment in the Dartmoor Series and is NOT a standalone. It handles sensitive, potentially-triggering subjects, and is intended for MATURE audiences only.

Oh, sweet Tango.
My heart hurt for him in this story. His backstory was really sad and fucked up, but his internal monologue fucking killed me. He thought so little of himself, he thought that he was worthless and he thought that he didn't deserve happiness. He was extremely depressed.
“The nightmare would never be over; a pretty boy...he was just a pretty boy...someone's little loverboy.”
I have never read a story like this before, but I'm glad that it was a story of recovery and it didn't have a tragic ending.
I didn't know if I would like this book as much because I don't read M/M romance novels. Nothing against it, it's just not my thing.
Honestly, I don't think that I could pick which book is my favorite in this series. They are all SO GOOD! Every single character is phenomenal and they all have their very own personalities. That's a huge plus for me, because not every author can make each character their own unique person, but Gilley did!
I think that Tango & Whitney had a very sweet relationship. I love how their love story was a little slower than all of the others.
The last chapter made me so, so happy. Tango got everything he deserved & more.
If you do not like to read about fucked up things, this book definitely isn't for you. It deals with a lot of horrible things. If you are triggered easily, I probably wouldn't even read this series. If reading about dark & horrible things doesn't bother you, definitely give this series a go. It's worth it.
