I love this series.
I love these characters.
I love this author.
I just love...

Yes, yes, gush, gush, gush.

As a longtime reader of this series who has read each book probably 3-4 times each (no bullshitting, people), getting more books in this series is like Christmas.

Reading this book was like walking into a room you love filled with family and friends you adore and I loved every second of it. I could read about these character forever and will continue to buy these books as long as AJL keeps writing them.

After Glow is the eleventh book in the Lost King MC Series. Rock and Hope have been through so much and yet, there love is about to be tested again. As secrets are about to be revealed, the club bands together once again and braces for impact.

description
"I'm just so consumed by our frantic thrusting, wild grinding, and hushed whispers..."
Told in multiple POV, After Glow is a perfect blend of LOKI action, smoking hot passion, and true love. The camaraderie between the brothers might be tested again and again and yet, they continue to lean on each other, fight for each other, bleed for each other, and live for each other. They will do whatever it takes.

description

"Rochlan, you're what gives me strength."
Once again, Autumn Jones Lake has created a beautiful masterpiece by diving deep into the lives of my favorite King and Queen. The characters are complex and the challenges they face are minimal because they face them together. Despite Hope's current condition, Rock doesn't waste any time taking care of his wife. The connection between these two is hotter than ever! When the truth is revealed, it only inspires more love between the LOKI family. The dialogue between Rock and Hope is beautifully crafted with a perfect blend of intensity and tenderness. The way in which Rock and Hope love each other is beautiful. (And after everything they have been through, it just makes it that much sweeter.) With multiple twists and turns, this is one ride that I never want to end.

description

Overall, I will never get enough of the LOKI. Everytime another book is released, I am RUNNING to read it. Not only do I love joining my favorite characters back in their world, but it also sparks all the feels and I end up re-reading my favorite moments from the entire series over again. The characters are unique and the loyalty and love in which they live and breathe never ends. I am so glad that I discovered this series as it will hold a place on my favorites shelf and my heart forever. The next book in the series is sure to bring on more feels. My Kindle and I will be waiting.

11 books into this series and Autumn Jones Lake still knows how to take my breath away and make me fall in even more in love with these characters.
After Glow delivers big time. Whenever I reach the end of one of these Loki books I just want the next one in my hands and after finishing After Glow I’m freakin crazy with want for book 12.

What can I say about After Glow without spoiling anything cause there is one hell of a surprise. I didn’t see it coming at all and again it’s been right there in front of me all along. I’m really excited where it takes the characters next. There’s still such much story left to tell. Autumn Jones Lake knows her characters so well and knows how to make them shine. I’ll never get tired of The Lost Kings MC.

One recurring theme for these LOKI books is family and that’s what I feel when I read After Glow and spend time with these wonderful characters. Rock, Hope, Wrath, Trinity and the others are family. My family. They make me smile, laugh and cry. My favorite MC series. This is the longest series I’ve ever read and it only gets better. The epilogue does what it’s supposed to do. Leaving me satisfied and on pins and needles for the next book. Z is finally here. Hurry up February.

Beyond 5 Glowing Stars

It’s after 2am but I had to stay up to finish this book- sleep be damned! I have been wallowing in desperate anticipation since finishing After Burn and once I started this, I couldn’t put it down.

This book is not standalone, you absolutely must read After Burn first but I highly recommend you read the entire series- every book has been like kindle crack to me - utterly addictive.

Rock and Hope are such a brilliantly written couple and being back with them and all the LOKI guys was so good. As deep as it can be in places , Autumn Jones Lake always writes humour and such excellent dialogue into her books. I love seeing characters from her other series’ appearing to. I enjoy reading the crossover characters and watching them interact with LOKI.

No spoilers here regarding the resolution / reveal of the cliffhanger but I did not see that big twist coming. Wow! Brilliant.

So glad that there are more stories to come. LOKI really is my favourite series - I can’t read enough about them all.

Cannot wait for Z’s book......

HEA? Yes
Cheating ? No

What a story!!
This author has a way of captivating me with her fresh unique perspectives on the LOKI MC Outlaws and their significant others.
A major bonus for me is that despite the fact that we’ve met these characters in previous books , they continue to develop and evolve with fresh new insight.
Even the title to this book is soo appropriate. This story really brought out all the feels and there really was an “after glow.”
That said... oh my god!!!
After Glow begins right after After Burn ends so please read that book before jumping into this one.
This installment was exciting and easy to follow, full of suspense, unexpected twists, and new revelations when you least expect it!!
The story was a perfect blend of violent edginess, romance and humor.
Flawlessly written, the best part of this story is how realistic the dialogue and banter amongst the characters was. Fast paced, told in dual POV I was totally taken aback by the result of new developments. Actually, I was blown away by the bombshell that was dropped, and the reaction of certain club members.
The gritty raw and dark side of the Loki lifestyle takes front and center stage as they handle certain events.
However, as they emerge from it, there was a real thought provoking moment, when the members of LOKI come to terms with the regrets of the dark brutal reality of mc outlaw life.
The true meaning of love, loyalty and brotherhood is put to the test as they deal with new developments.
As the men of LOKI uncover past secrets, the reality of their past actions leads them to rethink their outlook on life.
This thrilling, and sensuous new installment showed the characters in a different light. We saw their unapologetic violent side but we also learned new heartfelt information about the characters. They showed their vulnerable side, and made revelations that just had me falling with the main characters even more, especially Rock. He truly was their leader by showing solidarity and allegiance towards the brotherhood of the club and his family.
This story really begs the question...
Will they ever be able to play by society’s rules?
Grace and Chase may hold the answers.
There’s an undercurrent of something happening, of a certain ghostly elephant in the room.
As you read you get certain hints...
And at the end... the mother of all bombshells is dropped!
What can I say....
I KNEW IT!!! I. Knew. It!!!

So sweet and fulfilling

Once again AJL knocks it out of the park with the Lost Kings' latest. After Glow gives us all the sweet, sexy, dirty, awesome bits we've come to expect from this series. To top it all off, we finally find out who baby Chance belongs to, see Hope and Rock become parents, and discover something amazing even the characters didn't know.

I love these books. It's always like sitting down with old friends.

Bikers and babies and secrets, ooh my!

Really this should be a review of both After Burn and After Glow as they are connected. But really, if you haven't started at the beginning, you really should start with Slow Burn. I've loved Rock and Hope's story from the beginning and this was everything I could have hoped for. I love all the guys, but back to Rock and Hope. These two are so in love and even though their life install unicorns and rainbows, they handle it all together. When Rock's past reveals quite a secret, Hope supports him and he gives her all the devotion and love she needs. Tender behind closed doors, but absolutely tough and ruthless when he needs to be. And Hope is stronger than anyone gives her credit for but all the guys come to realize that. I could go on and on but really, if you're into biker romances that are more romantic than dark- you really need to give this series a go, I've read a lot of them and Autumn really writes them well with depth and feeling. Reading a LOKI book really makes me feel like I'm right there in the pages as well.

Damn .... what a ride !!!

#RealTalk: I've made a decision NOT to post a review of the book. If my rating doesn't tell you *runs and #oneclick* I cannot help you. Why am I not reviewing? This book's storyline is epic ! It's actually more than epic. It is world shattering for this club...potentially. I dunno about shattering because that depends on what the author does with the aftermath of this storyline, but it is EPIC. I'm not saying a damn word about it. Ya'll just go blindly into the night just like I did and I'll hold you when you're done :)

One thing: This book isn't a standalone. Not even a little.

That's it ..... go forth and enjoy

This is part 2 of a two parter.
Book 1 ended on a cliffhanger and this answers the questions raised in book 10.
The situation is not as we thought but there is a huge revelation that affects many relationships in the club.
The scene is also set for Z and his book.
Secondary characters drop breadcrumbs for possible future books in series and updates of previous characters from previous books.
Ex drama though no other actual woman appears.
HEA or HFN as you know you will see more in the next books.
No cheating.

What can I saw other than amazing! Autumn is truly a genius and a master storyteller. Her writing is so genuine and authentic that there never feels like there is never a wrong note in the direction she takes her characters and stories.

After Glow is simply amazing. The twists, turns, and confessions often left me speechless and in tears. These characters have grown so much over these books and I appreciate an author who lets her characters grow and mature. It's not often you find a romance series that explores life after the initial get together and I love it. Character development and growth doesn't stop after they couple up or get married. Autumn explores what it really means to find love and keep it.

Rock and Hope are a game-changing couple. Not just in the Romance world, but her the LOKI world too. The buck every expectation and with their relationship they have changed the course of the people in the world, all for the better. Their road has never been easy, but they face it head on together. Their not perfect, but they show grace with each other, which allows them to bring out the best in each other.

What I love is the twist and turns of this series feel organic and true to the characters and the world they live in. Nothing is done for shock value, but as the natural progression of the story and the development of these men and women. While you will be left speechless and in tears as truths are revealed, it feels real and honest and your just glad you get to be along for the ride.

OMG this book was fantastic and what I've been waiting for to start happening is in the next book...
This book was another one mostly about Rock and Hope with a little Grace.

If you haven't read the books that came before this one then don't read anything past this point because it will be major spoilers

This is the life of Hope and Rock and when we get close to the end is when baby Grace is born. Really would have had a few more little details about the birth of Grace... more on the line of weight and height... not the gross part...lol.

Now to see what kind revenge is going to be given to her so called friend. She will deserve it

This book was amazing! Autumn writes the most amazing characters. I can never get enough of Hope and Rock and the rest of the LOKI crew. Secrets are revealed and the way everything unfolds is masterful. This is an absolute must read but make sure you read After Burn first.

Disappointing

Least favorite of the series. Test result to far fetched. Found the book boring at times. Least we know who chance is. Usually Autumn is a 5** every time sorry can't say it about the book. The banter was still there between the guys but that was about it.

Autumn Jones Lake does not disappoint with the eleventh addition to the Lost Kings MC series. I highly recommend reading After Burn, prior to reading this title as the story flows from the previous title, and this title is jam packed full of twists and turns, and surprising reveals.

You would think by the eleventh title in a series, I would be getting sick of seeing the same characters, but these characters and their stories continue to evolve and grow, and with each new title it feels like you are re-connecting with long lost friends.

After Glow is packed full of the emotion, heat, heart, humor and touch of intrigue and violence I've come o expect from Autumn's work. Once again the connection and devotion that Hope and Rock share just melts your heart. I adored the fun, playful and irreverent banter that the brothers of the Lost Kings MC share throughout this title, quite often I found myself laughing out loud.

I picked this title up and did not want to put it down. Autumn sucked me into this tale of loyalty, love, brotherhood and devotion, and it's left me even more eager for the twelfth title, and I really hope that the next book she writes is going to be Z's story.

Autumn Jones Lake is a literary genius! From the first sentence in Slow Burn to the last sentence of After Glow, I’ve fallen more in love with these characters. AJL takes her readers on a twisting journey with love and laughs along the way. Her ability to pull readers into the pages with even the tiniest of detail, is unparalleled. As always, Hope and Rock are absolute favorites, but I cannot wait to read what she writes next!

The revelation of the secret that was built up in After Burn, was nothing short of mind-blowing! The new family dynamic will only add further depth to the club.

This book proved that Rock, while being an incredible partner to his wife and leader to the MC, still maintains his ruthless edge. Hope continued to be the strong female character I believe all of us readers absolutely love. She’s fierce and protective, but understanding and loving when she needs to be.

I laughed about so many things; from gossiping ladies to Heidi’s new side hustle and secondary characters like Carter. Sparky, Ravage and Stash are always entertaining. All the crossover characters that showed up at the gym reopening; the author does a great job of not forgetting anyone.

Vapor and Juliet definitely need to join the LOKI group. I think they’d make the perfect addition. One day, fans are going to insist that we’re given Mara and Damon’s story to devour. The mystery surrounding who Chances’ parents are was revealed. The next book, Zero Tolerance, is long awaited and I’ve no doubt AJL will once again blow our minds! Let’s all handclap for the scene where Rock finally had that conversation with Sway; we’ve all been waiting for it to happen.

I’m patiently waiting for Dex’s book; I have a feeling tears will flow freely. The glimpses and tidbits that AJL has revealed, point to a tragedy in his past.

OH.MY.GOD!!! One of the main things that was revealed in this book I was NOT expecting, like AT ALL but I’m so glad it turned out that way! Oooh my Teller! My heart both aches and jumps for joy for him.

Also that ending..I kind of thought that is what happened but to have it confirmed AHHHH what!!! I’m so upset with this person who’s been missing for the past few books, I’m rooting for her but damn do I want to slap her!

As you can see my emotions are ALL OVER THE PLACE. This review is vague, I know it’s vague but I don’t want to risk spoiling anything for potential readers because YOU MUST READ THIS and experience what this book will make you feel when you’re not expecting it.

In fact you should stop everything you’re doing and read this RIGHT NOW.

I honestly don’t even know what to do with myself.

OMG what can I say without spoiling all the secrets that are finally revealed in this book. The last book kept us hanging...a paternity suit, Hope's pregnancy causing a whole lot of angst and worry for Rock and now THIS. After Glow was so full of excitement and drama and lots of steam (who knew pregnant women could be so horny?) plus some interesting new characters who stumble into the LOKI world. This book had it all...sex, intrigue, unexpected turns which will impact everyone further down the road and one big whopper of an epilogue surprise. I love this entire series so much and things just keep heating up...just when you think there is nothing new to reveal, you would be so wrong. Awesome follow-up to After Burn.

Holy cow! This was such a good book and OMG what a shocker the results of the DNA test were! After Glow deals with the unfinished events of After Burn, Hope's pregnancy and delivery and damn... that ending! I know I keep saying in these reviews how I can't wait for Z's book and this has just increased that feeling tenfold, I'm so excited he's next. Can't. Freakin. Wait. Eleven books in and Autumn Jones Lake is still delivering the wow factor, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and give After Glow 5 stars.

Eleven books into the LOKI series and EVERY TIME I finish one, all I can think is "I want more, I want more." and I really can't get enough of Rock, Hope, and the rest of the guys and gals. If you are thinking about reading this, you should definitely start at the beginning of the journey, but it's a journey you won't regret.

What a great continuance of LOKI, this book has it all, twists, turns, love, loyalty and passion.

One thing I absolutely adore about this series is each book is different from the rest.

I fell in love with Rock and Hope in Slow Burn and this book just reaffirms that Rock and Hope are truly the king and queen of the MC world.

Would highly recommend you start this series from book 1. I simply cannot wait to read the next one
