Truth Alan Reacher was a biker. He was a bladesmith. What he was not, was a fool.
The moment he walked in on his girl screwing his cousin on his bike, he does the only thing he can do.
He ditches the bike seat—and the girl—riding right out of her life without a backwards glance.
That is until he’s forced to attend the marriage of his cousin to his cheating ex-girlfriend. The only bright spot of the entire thing was watching some chick go off on the groom—the groom’s ex-fiancé—right in the middle of the bouquet toss.
***
Verity Ruthann Cassidy was supposed to be here today attending this wedding as the bride, not watching the festivities as a guest from the chairs she’d painstakingly purchased covers for while her fiancé—now her ex-fiancé—screwed around on her with another woman.
The icing on the wedding cake that she refuses to eat? She’s forced to attend the wedding due to her mother being the wedding planner.
However, the night doesn’t turn out quite the way she expects it due to the hot-as-hell biker sitting in the chair directly beside her. The man gave one hell of a speech during the reception that sounded like something that could have come straight out of her own mouth, and she enjoyed every single second of it.
***
Thrown together under similarly lousy circumstances, the two newly single jilted former lovers of the happy couple decide to go to Vegas on what was to be Verity’s honeymoon trip.
One thing leads to another, and the next thing they know, their night has gone from a celebration of being single to a marriage—to each other.
Verity and Truth now have to figure out if everything that happens in Vegas should stay in Vegas.

Renee’s Five Star Review
Son Of A Beard is the third book in The Dixie Wardens Rejects MC Series. I have not read the first two books in this series so I am assuming you can read them as standalone’s.
Truth Alan Reacher is a biker and a bladesmith. One fateful day he catches his girl fooling around with his cousin of all people and one his bike of all places!! Fast forward a few weeks and he is forced to attend their wedding. The best thing about this wedding was that Truth got to meet Verity. The ex-girlfriend of his cheating cousin. There both in the same boat really and decide to leave the wedding together. Thrown together under the most unusual circumstances Truth and Verity find themselves in Vegas on what was to be Verity’s honeymoon trip. They go from jilted former lovers of the bride and groom to single to married to each other. Now Verity and Truth must decide if what happens in Vegas should stay in Vegas.
I am a huge fan of MC books. I am wondering how in the heck I have never read a Lani Lynn Vale book before. Boy oh boy it didn’t take me long to figure out that I have been missing out on some seriously good books. To say I loved both Verity and Truth is an understatement. I would so love to be friends with both these amazing characters. Verity is hilarious. She carries around a few extra pounds that don’t thrill her but she owns them and her curves and I loved that about her. She is hilarious because she tends to speak before she thinks and is very full of questions. Questions that at time have no business being asked but she does it anyway and is ok if she doesn’t get an answer. I equally love Truth. He has been though more than most people twice his age ever go through and he doesn’t talk about the things in his past. He knows he has to share them for Verity to really know him but he just isn’t ready. I also loved him for the way he looks at Verity and how he sees her sexy curves and doesn’t think she should try to be some stick thin model looking girl. These two are just absolutely perfect for each other.
I could go on and on about the things I loved about his book. You just need to run and grab it and enjoy the ride. It’s not all love and giggles. There is some serious danger and suspense in there too. It’s just the perfect combination of everything together. I was sad to see this book end. I do know that I will be going back and reading more Lani Lynn Vale. I’m so glad I discovered her because she is an absolutely amazing author.

I loved everything about this book! It was the perfect balance of danger, suspense, laughter, and love. Truth and Verity were great characters! Verity was a plus sized woman whose character accurately displayed how most women struggle when they are carrying around some extra weight. She also had an awesome sense of humor and was always saying what popped into her head without thinking it through. She was a total nut, and I couldn’t have loved her more. And Truth? On the outside, he appeared to be one ornery s.o.b., but the love he felt for Verity ran deep. One of the things I loved most about him was the way he saw Verity for the awesome woman she was and not just as a number on the scale.
While this book in not technically a comedy, I loved the way this author worked humor into what I would classify as a pretty intense read. I can’t wait for the next book in the series which is Sean’s story. I also must admit that I was super intrigued by Ghost, and I so hope the book after Sean’s will be his! Hint Hint. Kudos to Lani Lynn Vale for creating such a great story/series!
“In true Lani Lynn Vale fashion, this plays like a movie, that has you going through all the feels. Super hot sexy times, major drama, and the perfect amount of danger to make things interesting but not over the top.” – MJ’s Book Blog and Reviews

I’m a married mother of three. My kids are all under 5, so I can assure you that they are a handful. I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us. I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.
I need to check out this series, thanks!
