To Ratchet fire wipes everything clean, but the fire he feels for Ricca will either leave him fully engulfed or burned to ash.You can’t outrun your past, a mistake I learned the hard way. Stripped of the last piece of my innocence in the middle of the Californian desert, I waited for death. Then he appeared. My vengeful angel. He’s everything I’m not. He’s everything I want. He’s everything I can … everything I want.
He’s everything I can never have.
I will not let my past define me.
Abandoned by my mother as a child, I would be dead if it weren’t for Jagger. He took me into the Heaven’s Rejects and saved my life. Now I want to save hers. The superficial cuts and bruises on her delicate skin, don’t compare to the pain lurking in her heart.
The pain I want to save her from.
Somehow, I will find a way to get through to her.
Come hell or high water, she will be mine.

After reading the Volume 1 bundle of Heaven’s Rejects mc I was so excited to read the next book in the series and it did not disappoint. Ratchet was one of the characters that I saw as an impenetrable hot head, and I never quite knew what to think about Ricca ( If I am being honest I didn’t really like her because of what happened with Dani) Every book that I read I learn so much more about each character. I love the way that this author allows each character to build and develop across the different books. Cannot wait to read more about Heaven’s Rejects MC and all of the rowdy, dominant and sassy characters that come with it.
Erica “Ricca” Delmont has a very urgent matter to attend to. Ratchet has decided to go after what he wants. This story may act as a reminder that not everyone has a happy home life or childhood – not everyone should be a parent. It also shows how broken “the system” is.
There was one scene where I felt his heart was in the right place but it was just a little misplaced. But for me this was one thing that made him endearing. Make no mistake he’s still rough around the edges and will do what he has to in order to protect.
I found it interesting that at the point where the author should have been winding things down, and that’s where my mind was going, she put in a curveball. Who doesn’t love an author that will do the unexpected – something that keeps your mind on what you’re reading. Don’t be shy to read this series out of order but in order to know what this MC is about at some point you’ll have to check out what you’ve missed. Especially when we have and ending that seemed more like a beginning.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
5 Star Review Absolution (Heaven’s Rejects MC #3) by Avelyn Paige
This was am emotional roller coaster of a story.
What can I say about Jude aka Ratchet and Ricca? Their story nearly broke me. She has had such a tragic past, surviving more that anyone should have to put up with.
Ratchet is determined to make Ricca his but he will have to climb almost insurmountable walls to achieve his objective. She cannot break free from her past, it keeps pulling her back in and she cannot see a way out.
Absolution is a powerful story of love, learning to trust and about believing in someone. A powerful, gritty story that grabbed my attention from the start. One click now and start your journey with the Heaven’s Rejects MC.
Wow! To say that Ratchet and Ricca’s story is explosive is not enough. They are a force to be reckoned with. Together they will not only burn holes in the sheets, but right through your soul. They might not be a normal couple, but who wants normal anyway? Ratchet is still battling the guilt that consumes him and made him close himself, the club is the only place he feels comfortable but he doesn’t opens up to everyone until Ricca comes along flicks up a switch he thought was forever turned off. Ricca felt like everything was lost until her leather dressed knight rescued her, but after everything she went through letting go was not easy. Mending was not easy, working around their circumstances was more difficult than they thought, but they were fighters and they give you one heck of a love story!!
I have to say I love this third book in this series about Ricca and Ratchet. Ratchet was waiting for a woman like Ricca who wasn’t perfect but was perfect for him. She runs and he chases. The hell that is coming back from her past is something that neither of them expect but it is something that could tear them apart forever. I loved the story and the strong characters. Very engaging and a book that moved me. Definitely heat between Ricca and Ratchet. Must READ!!!
Oh Avelyn how I have missed you. I have been waiting ever so patiently for this book and I am thrilled to finally be able to get it. The wait was worth it and Avelyn has once again delivered an wonderful book. I truly think this book is the best one yet.
The story line while heartbreakingly sad is also one that will bring hope to many. Neither of these characters has had an easy life but Ricca has by far been dealt such an awful hand. Needless to say she has a ton of trauma to overcome and she has to learn to trust. She gets a call that is about to change her life and the path she was planning to go down. Will it be for the best? Will she be able to let others in? Will she be able to let others help her?
Ratchett saved Ricca and is determined not to just save her the one time but to help her with the road she was headed down. He wasn’t able to save someone who was close to him and he is deteremined to do it this time. The fact that he wants her to be his is just another reason to do so. She is the light in his life and he will do anything to make sure that light is always present. Problem is he has to find her and convince her, never expecting to find what he does.
I highly recommend this book. It can be read as a standalone but as someone who has read the others I recommend those as well.
Throughout the series Ratchet has been kind of heartless. His is he enforcer of the MC and has made his feelings known when it comes to the women in the other men’s lives. Although, he would protect the women if it came down to it, he just did not care to see the men taken by them. In this book we see a softer side to him. He stepped right in and was taking care of Ricca when they rescued her and now he dropped everything to help her once again. Even if she did not want his help, he pushed his way into her life and made things happen for her.
This book has twist, turns, ups, downs, suspense but over all faith and loyalty. Avelyn Paige wrote an amazing story about heartbreak, friendship, healing, redemption, and of course love.
I loved everything about this book.
I knew Ricca’s story wasn’t going to be easy but the moment Ratchett claimed her as his, I knew she would have someone fighting her corner. And man, did he fight!
When she disappears he does everything he can to give her time and space but after six months, her time is up. He is coming, ready or not!!
There is so much more to the distance she put between them and Ratchett is determined to make sure she knows he is here for her, no matter what. Throw in the other brothers that will protect what’s theirs in anyway they see fit and this book had me turning pages so fast, my head was spinning!! Love this couple!!!
I have to say I’m a little ashamed I have not read another Avelyn Paige book. This book had a little of everything I liked to read in a MC novel. It was dark and gritty not to mention the fierce loyalty all the members had towards one another.
Ratchet and Ricca’s relationship has been put through so many tests. It’s hard not to root for them. Especially when Ricca after being shunned by the community comes back. Ratchet it bound and determined to break down Ricca’s walls. Making sure her past doesn’t define her is one hell of a project he is not willing to fail.
This book was an absolute page turner. Avelyn makes you work for that happy ending. This book is extremely hard to review without giving anything away. But I will say I cannot wait for the next book in the series. – By Vanessa
Ratchet and Ricca will have you glued to the pages of Absolution as their story unfolds. This is the third book in the Heaven’s Rejects MC series, their story focuses more on them and less on the grit of the MC. In saying that, please do not think that detracts from the story in anyway, if anything it will have you more engaged in their journey to absolution. Two people with similar pasts who will find peace, protection and a love that knows no bounds in each other. Absolution will show you the path to forgiveness and lead you through an abundance of emotions including some seriously hot and steamy moments that has us all wishing to be saved by a Ratchet of our own.
Book # 3 in the Heaven’s rejects series was exciting .I liked Ricca with Ratchet , they seemed to complete each other . Their chemistry was hot like lava even mixed up in this emotionally raw on the edge of your seat storyline.
Avelyne really knows how to draw you into her storys. I had a very hard time putting this book down. I highly recommend this series.
Talk about gripping! This story leads you on a road of a man who fights for what he wants. The emotional battle within Ricca makes your heart break and heal.
