For as long as she can remember, Poppy has loved only one man. Devon Wallace has been her knight in shining leather ever since he rescued her from a date gone wrong. She can’t envision a future without him, but she’s convinced he still thinks of her as the pesky twelve-year-old who used to follow him around.
He can have anyone but her…
Devon "Sparky" Wallace has spent the better part of a decade trying to keep his hands off his uncle’s step-daughter, Poppy, and living by the code of the brotherhood. He’s not about to break the rules, no matter how much he fantasizes about the sexiest woman on the planet.
But when her connection to him puts her life in jeopardy, he must figure out a way to save her without breaking the club’s code, even if that means losing her forever.

The Longing is the second title in the Dogs of Fire: Wolf Pack and features Poppy and Devon. It's a thoroughly engaging, and entertaining read.
Poppy first appeared in Maisy and Hatch's story Road to Peace, and I was incredibly eager to read this title after finishing The Promise, the first title in the Wolf Pack series.
I adored Poppy's character she's stubborn, strong, feisty, outspoken and quite funny. She's not afraid to go after what she wants and is really quite determined once she makes up her mind. I adored her realtionship with Hatch her (SID or Stand in Dad) who is also Devon's uncle.
Devon is a stubborn, swoon worthy, dirty talking alpha. Whilst he's sexy and loving, he is also very stubborn and really plays hard to get.
The realtionship between this pair if full of pushing and pulling, with miscommunication and bad timing causing friction they drift apart. They are both incredibly stubborn, and jealous, whilst often at logger heads or hostile with each other in their attempts to stave off heartbreak.
The banter between this pair is fun and flirty, and full of humor. I loved the fact that their remarks are both sarcastic or antagonistic, but also quite funny at times, and I quite often found myself laughing out loud.
I loved that this title not only incorporates side characters from the original Dogs of Fire, but also the Savannah chapter who appeared in Saving the Preacher's daughter.
The Longing is a fast paced MC romance, full of suspense, intrigue, action, angst and drama and not to mention the hot love. I cannot wait for more from Piper Davenport. I have yet to be disappointed by any of the books in the Dogs of Fire series, and will be eagerly awaiting additional titles to the Wolf Pack and Savannah chapter.
