An edge-of-your-seat (fr)enemies to lovers romance about an outlaw biker with the Devil on his back, a good girl with a badass streak who’s about to find out who she really is, and a childhood marriage pact that comes back to haunt them both.

Lex Davenport was the boy my dad warned me about. Literally.
The son of a Mafia boss, Lex was the bad boy I snuck around with on summer holidays. When I was ten years old, we made a marriage pact and sealed it with blood.
Then we never saw each other again.

Until he happened back into my life years later—all grown up.
Now, that boy I used to know is an outlaw biker, tattooed and mysterious… with eyes that follow me from the shadows wherever I go.

I don’t know why I can’t stop thinking about him. Or why his mere presence sets my body on fire.
I don’t do bad boys.
I know; some girls say that and don’t mean it. But I really do.

Until the day another man proposes to me, right in front of Lex, and everything changes.

I never thought a childish pact could come back to screw me over like it did.
But I’m about to find out what Lex is really made of… what I’m really made of… and just how far the Devil will go to get what he wants.

Rebel Heir by Jaine Diamond
Narrated by: Lee Samuels, Stella Hunter, Connor Crais
Audiobook Rating: 5/5
Story Rating: 5/5

Rebel Heir is non-stop, edge of your seat, & full of suspense kind of romance book. I didn’t think it would work out having a light mafia with MC club kind of vibe but it truly surprised me. I enjoy listening and reading at the same time on this one, for sure. It keeps you guessing, plenty of action, a bit of angst to full-on spice and everything nice. You wonder if being a bad girl is the way to go. Ha!

Lexington Davenport: Lee Samuels voiced this role. He did remarkably well as the son of a mafia boss and the true member of West Coast Kings MC club. Lex portrays the bad boy persona but deep down he is very alpha-overprotective, charming, and a lot of heart. Lee had the ability to capture the feelings for Lex, providing the significance of what he is, all the hard shell of a man outside but a soft hearted of a man inside. Yes, Lex is truly vulnerable and blooming but only when Taila is around. Lee Samuels did an incredible job!!!

Talia: Stella Hunter voiced this role. She is a captivated and interesting heroine with best friend, Roni! She is sassy, strong-minded, but most importantly, a bite-eating down right fighter!!!! What Talia goes through with Lexington, in childhood years to adulthood is so surreal because it came to the point, how will these two really work as a couple. Taila portrays the good girl next door but as usual, the good girl next door wants something more, wants the bad boy in her life. The banters and the chemistry was off the hook! Stella Hunter did a phenomenal job!!!

Dane Davenport: Dane and Lex for me check marks all of my boxes! So, hearing both, Lee Samuels and Connor Crais, is just so lovely. Even if Connor was there for just a short period of time, he played Dane in the last book quite well. He is fitting to be part of book 2 because a lot of things are going on, more juicy secrets revealed & etc. In any case, it is always pleasing to my ears hearing a familiar voice.

I believe this is such a great thriller story plot with many electric memorable and sizzling chemistry moments with Lex & Talia which the narration brought them to life. I love reading/listening to other characters such as Roni, Piper, Jude, Shane, Maddox from book 1 into book 2, too! Overall, this book got my attention from the beginning to the end. If you want childhood frenemies & a whole lot of villain love, this book is for you!

Rebel Heir is the 2nd book in the Vancity Villains Series by Jaine Diamond. This book is intriguing, full of drama, and lots of slow-burn romance that led to fiery flames between summer childhood friends Lex and Talia. Lex is the bad boy biker, while Talia is the good girl next door. When Lex was 12 and Talia was 10, they made a pact to get married on Lex's 29th birthday. They each signed their names and sealed their pledge with bloody thumbprints. They rarely crossed paths until 16 years later when they were both on tour together with Lex as security for the band Dirty and Talia as an assistant manager for the band Players. When Talia continues to run into Lex after the two bands' tour ends, she begins questioning her current engagement, but Lex rebuff's all her attempts to seduce him. Talia's efforts to work through her muddled feelings and instant attraction to Lex leave her more confused than ever. Despite Lex turning away Tal, it does not mean he feels nothing for his childhood friend, but the real motives behind his actions are much more complicated. Both father's and family ties intertwine into a tangled mess that causes drama, family interference, and danger for both Talia and Lex. As Lex tries to keep his biker life and his family's mafia ties separate, it becomes jumbled chaos that begins to unravel into turmoil. The road to happiness seems impossible, but the HEA will happen! A beautifully written book by Jaine Diamond! Her books are each a jewel to not only admire for being well written but to devour in the first reading and to savor on each re-reading of her books. And each of her books will be re-read over and over!

Smoking hot read. This is Lex and Talia’s story. Lex is a member of the MC Kings so he has been ins several of the other stories and Talia is friends with Roni so she’s popped up some of the books too. This book had mafia, MC, romance, danger galore, and well a whole host of everything to keep you on your toes and wondering just what would be in store for our two characters. Another fantastic book by the author.

Such a great, complicated story

It was truly a complicated story, worth some quiet time to unravel when the time comes. Way more going on than you’d ever imagine. I can usually see things coming but this one came way outta left field. But it worked. I suffer from insomnia and often sort through these stories looking for clues, etc. I did not see this one coming. Very enjoyable. Glad to see Lex find his way and his love come true.

I have absolutely devoured Jane's Dirty Series, and the Players Series and I am SO sad I only have one book left in the VanCity Villains series. I couldn't put them down, three of the books I read cover to cover in a day. So. Good. Rebel Heir == my favourite of all of them. Badass female character, amazing world, intrigue, suspense, mafia, MC, sexy.... ya. Thanks Jane for these escapes, Looking forward to what ever world you create next!

not as good as the others

Reviewed in France on October 29, 2022

It was an okay book but the plot twist were too much. And the characters too whiny and over the top. It was nice to have some of the others characters from the MC so it was entertaining but other than that I could really get a grip into the story I had to skip a lot to finish it. Disappointed unfortunately but remain a JD fan. I can’t wait for the next book

How did we get from Jesse f****** Mayes/rock star romance, to Lex Davenport/Mafia romance?
Well I don’t know and I don’t care because I can’t tell you much I loved Rebel Heir.

What’s not to love? Hot biker, strong Mafia princess, passion, love and heartache.

Lex and Talia have known each other forever but never crossed the line . How could they? Even though she had strong feelings for him when they were only 10, Lex knew that he could never have her so he made sure he pushed her away, as far as he could. He was still really protective of her though.

The past bites Lex in the bum, so he goes agains his MC brothers and does something what nobody would think of.

Will the betrayal end his life? Will his brothers forgive him?

There are so many secrets and twists, you wouldn’t even expect them in a Jaine Dimond book.

The epilogue made me swoon, melted my heart and made me emotional at the same time.

To say I have a book hangover is an understatement.

To say that I will re-read this book over and over again is an understatement.

To say that this book is full of surprises is an understatement.

To say that author Jaine Diamond is a genius is an understatement.

To say that this book will stay with me for a looooong time is an understatement.

Wow, just wow! I’m afraid that I won’t be able to find the necessary words to describe just how incredible Jaine Diamond’s latest book, Rebel Heir, is.

This book is FREAKING AMAZING!!! I already knew that I would like Lex’s character, and I already had a fascination with him and his platinum fangs, but nothing could have prepared me for Lexington Davenport. Nothing.

Talia hadn’t even been on my radar until this book. Then I read the Prologue and I KNEW I was going to like this girl. I then read Chapter 1 and I LOVED this girl. OMG! Talia is absolutely hilarious and absolutely my type of girl. I just want to become her BFF and drink vodka with her. I just know we’d have a great time.

Folks, you are not ready for this book. It is just so different to what I was expecting being Book 2 of the Van City Villains series and therefore about Villains. I knew the story would involve bikers and mafia and thought it would be reasonably dark… and realistically, if you laid out the plotline in a bullet point format it would probably sound dark, but with these two amazing MC’s it is like a crazy carnival ride of laughs and steam and ‘what next?’. Somehow with Jaine’s pure storytelling genius she has managed to make a dark plotline fun and romantic while still full of anticipation and angst (seriously, how does she do this??).

To me, this book has a similar vibe as Dirty Like Me with Jesse and Katie. Lex and Talia are crazily romantic, and their storyline will take you in wild directions that you won’t be expecting. I was constantly surprised and captivated while reading it. It is one of the most unpredictable books I have ever read, and I mean that as a huge compliment.

Another pleasant surprise in this story was seeing more of Jude and Roni. Honestly, Jude and Roni were never one of my favourite ‘Dirty’ couples, but I have a whole new appreciation for them now and I’m planning a re-read of their story. It was also great to read more about the West Coast Kings and their various ties to the Canadian underworld. I can see even more worlds and scope unfolding for Jaine’s storytelling imagination.

Rebel Heir will take you on the best kind of roller coaster ride and you won’t want it to end. Readers will be raving about this book for months and begging for more. I know I am.
