  About Lyrics On The Wind

  Feelings were a weakness I couldn’t afford.

  Until Shelby crept under my skin.

  Then I fell and I fell hard.

  Her touch has branded me to the bone.

  She’s taught me love has no boundaries.

  I’ve always lived for danger.

  But this time, the stakes are too high.

  Her lyrics on the wind are calling my name.

  No matter where this road takes me, my ruthless MC brothers have my back.

  With their blessing, I’ll seek, destroy, and ultimately deliver justice.

  Lyrics on the Wind is the second part of Rooster and Shelby’s story. Rhythm of the Road should be read first.

  Glossary Of Characters And Terminology

  To skip right to Chapter 1, click here.

  The series has had some shakeups in the last few books. I’ve updated the glossary to reflect this. It may contain spoilers if you are not caught up on the series or have skipped books! If you’re brand new to the series—welcome! This guide might be handy. If you’ve been part of the LOKI family for a while—welcome back! The info might help refresh your memory.

  New characters were introduced in Rhythm of the Road and I have tried to include them here.

  Please note, this glossary only pertains to my romantic fictionalized motorcycle club world. It should not be construed as applicable to any other fictional club or a real-life motorcycle club.

lan. Handles the money and investments for the club.

  OTHER LOST KINGS MC MEMBERS

  Grinder: Rock’s mentor. Grinder is an older member who we met briefly in Corrupting Cinderella and have seen or heard about a few other times throughout the series. He’s been incarcerated since right before Rock took over the Lost Kings MC.

  Cronin “Sparky” Petek: Sparky is the mad genius/hippie stoner behind the Lost Kings MC’s pot-growing business. He is rarely seen outside of the basement, as he prefers the company of his plants.

  Elias “Bricks” Serrano: We have seen Bricks and his girlfriend Winter throughout the series. He’s one of the few members who does not live at the clubhouse.

  Sam “Stash” Black: Lives in the basement with Sparky and helps with the plants.

  Thomas “Ravage” Kane: We’ve gotten to know Rav and his snarky humor a little bit better in each book. Ravage is a general member who helps out wherever he is needed.

  Sway: Former president of the downstate charter of the Lost Kings MC. We’ve seen Sway and his wife Tawny off and on in the series since Strength From Loyalty, usually annoying Rock in some fashion.

  Hoot: We’ve seen glimpses of him since Slow Burn when he was a lowly prospect. He finally got his full patch, but still gets a lot of the grunt work.

  Birch: We also met him as a prospect. He’s been voted as a full-patch member but shares in a lot of the grunt work with Hoot.

  Swan: Lost Kings MC club girl and dancer at Crystal Ball. Swan has found a new calling as the yoga teacher for the old ladies of the Lost Kings MC and is slowly moving away from dancing at Crystal Ball.

  Willow: Bartender at Crystal Ball, but once or twice we’ve caught her sneaking in or out of the basement with Sparky.

  Serena: Former downstate club girl, still a little broken-hearted over Murphy. Abused by Shadow, the former VP of the downstate charter. We have not seen her since Zero Regret.

  Tawny: Sway’s ol’ lady. The former “Queen B” of the downstate charter of the Lost Kings MC.

  Stella: Pornographic film actress. The downstate charter is the sole investor in her production company. Ex-girlfriend of Z. Current…something of Sway. Her Sex in Every City series sometimes requires members of LOKI to work as bouncers on her film sets.

  LOST KINGS MC TERMINOLOGY

  LOKI: Short for LOst KIngs

  War room: Where the Lost Kings hold “church.”

  Property patch: When a member takes a woman as his old lady (wife status), he gives her a vest with a property patch. In my series, the vest has a “Property of Lost Kings MC” patch and the member’s road name on the back. The officers also place their patches on the ol’ lady’s vest as a sign that they always have her back. Her man’s patch or club symbol is placed over the heart. Rock’s patch is a crown. Wrath’s is a star. Murphy’s is a four-leaf clover. Teller’s is a dollar sign. Z’s is the letter Z. Rooster’s is a rooster wearing a crown. As a joke, Wrath gave Rock and Hope a “product of” patch for baby Grace. Maybe it will catch
on as more kids are born into the club? We’ll see.

  PLACES IN THE LOST KINGS MC WORLD

  I use a mix of real and imaginary names to describe the places in my series. Again, I bend and shape geography to my needs as this is a fictional world that I have created.

  Empire, NY: The territory run by the Lost Kings MC upstate charter. This is a fictional version of Albany, NY, the capital of New York State. Many of the Lost Kings MC’s businesses are located in and around Empire.
