I first picked up 'It Ain't Me, Bame' after seeing it recommended in a forum for fans of edgy romance novels. At the time, I had no idea it was part of a series, but the story hooked me so fast that I had to look up whether there was more to it. Turns out, Tillie Cole crafted this whole world around the Hangmen MC, and this book is just the beginning. The series has this addictive quality—once you meet characters like Styx and Ky, you’ll want to follow their journeys through the other books.
What’s cool about the 'Hades Hangmen' series is how each novel explores different relationships while maintaining an overarching narrative. 'It Ain't Me, Bame' introduces the tone and style, but later books expand on the lore and deepen the connections between characters. If you’re like me and enjoy sinking into a series where every book feels like catching up with old friends (albeit ones with dramatic lives), this one’s a great pick. The emotional intensity never lets up, and the way Cole weaves the stories together is impressive.
I was browsing through my bookshelf the other day and stumbled upon my well-worn copy of 'It Ain't Me, Bame'—it got me thinking about how this book fits into the bigger picture. For those who might not know, it's actually the first book in the 'Hades Hangmen' series by Tillie Cole. The series dives deep into the world of motorcycle clubs, romance, and some seriously intense drama. What I love about this book is how it sets the stage for the rest of the series, introducing characters and conflicts that ripple through the later installments. The gritty atmosphere and raw emotions make it impossible to put down.
If you're into dark romance with a side of suspense, this series is a must-read. Each book focuses on different characters within the same universe, so while 'It Ain't Me, Bame' stands strong on its own, it’s even better when you see how everything connects. I’ve reread it a few times, and I still catch new details that tie into the broader story. Definitely a series worth diving into if you enjoy complex relationships and high stakes.
Yep, 'It Ain't Me, Bame' kicks off the 'Hades Hangmen' series, and it’s a wild ride from start to finish. I remember finishing it in one sitting because the chemistry between the main characters was just that compelling. The series leans into dark romance tropes but does it in a way that feels fresh, especially with the motorcycle club backdrop. If you’re into interconnected stories where side characters get their own books later, this is perfect. The sequels explore different couples but keep the same gritty vibe, so it’s satisfying to see how everything ties back to the first book.

BOOK #6 - WRIGHT-PETROV SERIES
After her father's death, Kamilla lost her association with her father's employer. The Petrov family.
Everything else followed. People she considered friends, including her boyfriend, turned their backs on her. She was outcasted by the same people previously groveling to please her.
Overnight, she becomes a nobody. An easy target for the hypocrites of society. Nonetheless, she endures. She is far stronger than anyone realizes.
However, someone thought she needed protection.
"Why are you doing this, Mr. Samuel Petrov? I do not need the frivolity of your world. And please do not give me that lame excuse about being my father's friend again," she shows her defiance by meeting his calm gaze with her sharp angry one.
"Believe me, Kamilla, you will not want to hear my reasons." Samuel bore her with an ominous look, attempting to dismiss her.
"What reasons, Mr. Petrov? Does it include watching me sleep in the middle of the night? Or your huge one down there having a hard-on whenever you see me in my flimsy nightgown?" with regained boldness, she sassed while pointing at the bump of his pants.
Samuel raised a brow in response to her brazenness.
"It's just the tip of the iceberg you are seeing, Kamilla. You do not want to know the rest of it," his voice turned icy cold as he gritted every word.
"I'm no angel, Samuel Petrov. I can smell your desire since day one, baby" A suggestive sultry smile carves her lips.
"Fuck you, Kamilla. Don't call me baby" she was no longer surprise when he swiftly pulled and pinned her on the couch.
"It's dangerous" His ragged hot breath fanned her face, and a rock-hard thing was wedged between them.

One week before our wedding, my fiancee told me she wanted to have a baby with her childhood best friend.
When I said no, she looked at me as if I were the unreasonable one.
"It's just IVF," my fiancee said. "Nothing is going to happen between Logan and me. His parents have been pressuring him to get married so badly that he almost died in a car accident. Now they have finally agreed to back off as long as he has a child. We should help him."
I stared at her, my face drained of color. "We're getting married in a week, and you want to have another man's baby? Do you honestly think that's fair to me?"
Her expression softened, and she reached for my hand as if she were soothing a child.
"Daniel," she said gently, "after we're married, we'll have children of our own too."
In that moment, whatever love I had left for her died completely.
She was right about one thing: I would have children of my own someday, but not with her.
I turned around, opened my phone, and posted a status for everyone to see, 'I'm getting married in one week, but I'm missing a bride. Anyone interested?'

I picked up 'It Ain't Me, Babe' a while back, thinking it was a one-off story, and boy was I surprised! Turns out, it's actually the first book in the 'Hades Hangmen' series by Tillie Cole. The story follows a biker gang and a sheltered girl, and while it wraps up its main plot, it leaves enough threads to make you curious about the other characters. The romance is intense, and the world-building really pulls you in—definitely made me want to dive into the next book right away.
If you're into dark romance with a gritty edge, this one's a great start. But fair warning: once you meet the Hangmen, you'll probably end up wanting to read the whole series. The way Cole weaves interconnected stories makes it feel like a bigger universe, even if this book has its own complete arc.
