The series: Black Knights Inc. is a group of ex-military men and women work under the guise of a custom motorcycle shop, but behind closed doors they carry out supersecret government missions. Author Julie Ann Walker says it is Sons of Anarchy meets 007. And, of course, there's lots of sexy romance along the way.Why you should read this series: I love male camaraderie, and Julie Ann Walker has created a group of alpha men, all ex-military, who give each other a hard time, make each other laugh, and will risk their lives for one another in a heartbeat. Paired with some strong women who give back just as hard, this series has lots of action, humor and some nice sexual tension.
