Lost Doesn’t have faith in himself and now finds that he’s the president of the club. He’s never sure if he’s making the right decisions. Patsy walks into his life needing protection and he falls head over heels. Patsy needs to stay under the radar with her son but she’s been found. She can’t run anymore but she needs help. She finds that and more with Lost. If she can stay alive maybe they’ll have a future.
This is another winning book by Mandi Mellett. I’ve read her Colorado chapters and they were amazing. This is a fantastic start to her San Diego series. The thing that I loved about this book is the fact that Lost and Patsy are middle aged. Most romance books center around young virile men and women. Life doesn’t stop because you turn fifty. This book shows that life and love go on after your children are fully grown.
Another masterpiece by the talented Manda Mellet! This time featuring the San Diego chapter of the “Satan’s Devil MC”, and I was hooked from the first page! It kept me up reading late into the night, wanting to find out what happens next! This book is definitely an emotional rollercoaster that will keep you on the very edge of your seat! I fully recommend this book, and can’t wait to read more from Mellet!

5 of 5 Stars
Another great MC novel by Manda Mellett, featuring the ‘Satan’s Devils MC’, this time the San Diego Chapter. This novel concentrates on older couple Lost and Patsy, it’s nice to have a MC romance storyline featuring an older couple for a change. Both of them have had bad past experiences with relationships and so they are wary of love. Lost is the new Prez of the San Diego Satan’s Devils following Snakes mutiny and death. Due to Snakes betrayal Lost is unsure about his new role but the MC members are all looking to him now for guidance. Then he meets Patsy, Patsy has always had to make tough decisions in her life and the latest one was choosing which of her two grown up children needed her help the most. This decision has led her to starting a new life but now they have been found and are on the run again and in danger until Lost comes into her life. Patsy wasn’t looking for a man at her age but she needs protection and feels she can rely on Lost, meanwhile he knows he should tell her to stay away from him but somehow he just can’t. This is a great story, with strong characters, a fast paced storyline and at the heart of it a second chance at love romance. It has drama and suspense but also concentrates on the relationships between the MC members and the women in their lives. I liked how Lost and Patsy’s relationship developed throughout the book and how their chemistry sizzled off the page and led to some steamy scenes between the couple. A great read, and it was nice to meet a new chapter of the Satan’s Devils and I look forward to reading future books in this series.
What a phenomenal read full of heartbreak, emotion and one hell of a roller coaster! I just couldn’t set the book down it was one of those reads you get sucked into and just completely lose track of time! I have read many books from this author and none has left me disappointed if anything I’ve have just been left wanting more and more! Brilliant total page Turner!
Being Lost by Manda Mellett is book one of the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego Series. Manda doesn’t get it wrong with these MC books and this one is no exception!
Lost is feeling the weight of the MC on his shoulders. He didn’t expect to become Prez and now he has to make sure he does right by the club. The Tucson chapter requested that they keep an eye on a woman and her son moving to the area. Lost doesn’t expect Patsy and especially doesn’t think he deserves a chance. Patsy had to make an extremely hard decision when she decided to move away and start a new life with her son. Now, danger is knocking at their door. Patsy has lived her life. She doesn’t need a man. Which makes meeting Lost a surprise for her. Even better because he’s attracted to her too! Patsy is so much stronger than she gives herself credit for. After all, she made an impossible decision and is sticking with it despite the danger she faces. Lost doubts himself at every turn but no way will he let that interfere with his obligations to the club. Will these two work through their issues so they can work on being together?
I couldn’t put this book down. I had to find out what was going to happen next. Patsy and Lost both went through a lot in their lives but still wanted to work through it all to be together. I really enjoyed these characters and this book!
Being Lost is book one in the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series by the enigmatic Manda Mellett. Just reading the blurb has me intrigued with this story, and I was kept on the edge the entire way through to the end. When you read a story by this author, you get a story with grit, weight and drama. Gripping and multifaceted characters male up a colourful and highly entertaining read. A master of this genre, Manda Mellett delivers a story overflowing with action, heat and all the wonderful and tumultuous antics that go into an MC story. 5 stars for Being Lost.

Being Lost is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series. It is the latest story in the Satan’s Devils MC world and the first book for the San Diego chapter- although we have met them before in previous books.
I have read all of Ms. Mellett’s books now, and always enjoy what she produces- and even though I did like this book, it didn’t blow me away like some of her previous stories did. I just didn’t ‘feel’ this one as much as I would have liked.
Lost and Patsy are more mature characters which was great to see. So that provided an interesting dynamic to the story. While there was suspense and mystery to the story, I didn’t feel the intensity and tension that normally comes with Ms. Mellett’s work.
Entertaining- wonder what Ms. Mellett has in store for us next?
Thank you, Manda Mellett!
Well i say this every time and I’ll keep saying it im sure, but this author has one heck of a gift with writing.
This is the first book of the San Diego chapter of the Satan’s Devils, and while we have met some of these members in other books, we get to see them on their home turf.
Laying low seems to be the premise of this book for both Lost and Patsy. I am so so happy to be able to see what happens after Inks story (from a previous book) with Patsy and her son.
Again I was rolling through my emotions and even though its an older couple, and done so well I might add, we still get the key things we look for in a motorcycle club romance and especially with this group of bikers.
I can’t wait to see where this chapter of the club goes.
This takes us through the San Diego chapter with Patsy and Lost’s story. It’s a slow burn, which I love. And it’s a more mature story with older characters which is a bit different. Plenty of unexpected twists and turns, which makes for an interesting read! By the time you finish this book, you can’t wait for the next one! Another great read from Manda!!!
Being Lost by Manda Mellet was another great MC read! This is the first book in the new Satan’s Devils San Diego series and it does not disappoint. It follows what happens in the Colorado series, so it makes more sense to read those first before this one, even though this one could technically be a stand alone novel. Full of suspense, thrills, some humor and steam, this is another great motorcycle club read. I could hardly put this book once I started reading it. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel!
Author Manda Mellett does it again with another stellar MC book Being Lost: Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #1. Lost is the current President of the San Diego chapter of the Satan’s Devils MC. The only reason he is President is because he used to be VP until his president ended up getting himself killed and then he was voted in. But every day he questions whether he is making the right choices for his club. He’s been asked by the Colorado chapter to keep an eye on a member’s old lady’s mother and brother who have relocated. Soon trouble comes knocking and Lost must decide if this woman is worth jeopardizing the safety of his club. Patsy made a huge decision to move with her son to a new place, secluded from her past life. Unfortunately it seems to catch up with her, but not before Satan’s Devils find her. She knows she needs protection but hasn’t been with a man since her ex-husband. She knows she can trust Lost, but does he believe enough in himself? Yet another amazing MC novel written by this author. I love that she uses story lines from other books to tie together the clubs, but you don’t have to read the other novels to understand this one (although I highly recommend you do). I love the way the author is able to make two unlikely people just fit so perfectly for one another. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and look forward to others by Manda Mellett.
Being Lost is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC San Diego series by Manda Mellett. I’m a huge fan of Manda Mellett having read several of the Satan’s Devils Arizona books and all of the Colorado ones. I have to say that I was a bit apprehensive of a new series as I’d grown to love the guys in the other series’ and was worried about getting another new bunch to get to know. This was just me being stupid as I should have known that Manda Mellett would not let me down.
I loved that she used links to the other 2 chapters from the very beginning to make you feel right at home straight away without feeling overwhelmed with all the new characters.
Being 1 short of the Big dreaded 5 0, I loved that Being Lost’s story centred around a couple in their early 50’s. It’s such a welcome change to read about an older couple who don’t have perfect bodies. They have a few extra pounds here and there and a few grey hairs and wrinkles but still have a very sexy storyline. There is hope for me yet!! Lol.
As with other Satan’s Devil’s book there is a great storyline running along with the romance of the main couple involved. The storyline in this book was thrilling and dangerous and a carefully worked out plot. I’m in awe of how Manda Mellett writes these amazing stories. I just can’t get enough of the Satan’s Devils.

Being Lost: Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #1 by Manda Mellet
Yes, we have another chapter of the Satan’s Devils to read about. I’m so excited about the San Diego branch because I love these guys.
Lost is the President of the San Diego branch. He has some issues from his past that seem to linger but he’s a great guy and just like the others in this series he will do what he has to to protect the club and family.
Patsy is not a stranger to the club environment, her daughter is with someone out of Colorado. She has someone from her past chasing her and the Devil’s are stepping up to help.
I’m looking forward to getting to know each of the guys in San Diego and watch them fall like their brothers in Arizona and Colorado.
There was the right amount of suspense and intrigue without being cheesy about it. Ms. Mellett has been good about that in all of the books of hers I have read.
Wonder which once of the big guys is going to follow next.

Holy cow this was an awesome book! I couldn’t put it down. Being Lost (Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #1) by Manda Mellett was addicting and entertaining. Mellett always does an excellent job with her character development and this book does not disappoint. It had an excellent storyline mixed in romance. The chapters transitioned well and fit together well. It was smooth and flawless. Another great book by an amazing author! Easy 5-stars!
This is the 1st book in the Satan Devils MC San Diego Chapter. It is a great book and introduces you to some new characters as well as some old ones from the previous books.
In the story we follow Patsy and Lost.
Patsy is the Mother to Dan (Connor) And Beth who is MC member Ink’s old lady.
After the fall out between Dan and the drugs and the connection to Alder the drug kingpin, Dan goes to the police and tells them everything which then means for his safety he needs to disappear.
So Dan and his mother Patsy are moved to San Diego where they fall under the protection of Lost and the San Diego Mc. With Alder still after Dan they try to stay under the radar until it turns out that Alder isn’t after Dan at all but his mother.
Lost is the prez of the MC and he has a hard and heartbreaking past. Suffering a lack of confidence at his ability to guide the club in the right direction he wonders if he has bitten off more than he can chew when he offers his help to protect Patsy from Alder.
However, he cant stop his growing feelings for her and despite both their pasts he wants something to work between them. Can Patsy become his old lady or will he be unable to protect her so she had to run again.
It was an amazing story that keeps you gripped as you cheer for them to succeed but also your heart stops at some of the situations that arise.
,
So I was looking forward to reading this. I loved Darts book where some of these characters were introduced. I did struggle a bit with this one. It seemed like a lot of feelings and not much happened til later in the book. I enjoyed learning a bit more about Lost and following the story of a couple who are over fifty. That set a different tone to the story. Patsy was in a bit of a situation but really she didn’t do much for the story. Maybe that’s part of the older characters, I’m not sure. We have met Patsy and Dan previously from Ink’s book. It was fun to see Ink and Beth again. I did like the idea of seeing what happened after their story.
It just seemed most of this story was talked about. There isn’t a lot of action. Maybe it’s the vibe of this club. They just recently had trouble so they are on the down low. Action did pick up near the end. But with Lost’s self doubt even the plans were rehashed numerous times.
This isn’t a favorite and I am saddened by that fact. I wanted to love it so bad. But I just got bored at times.
This book should only be read by the over 18’s, there are lots of adult themed and violent scenes throughout, which are unsuitable for those any younger.
This book is a branch of the Satan’s Devil’s MC series and is based in the San Diego chapter, it revolves around the Mc’s Prez Lost and his inner turmoil as the President of the Club and as his name suggests, he feels lost since his club was torn apart and nearly broken, just like him.
The book starts as Lost is struggling with a nightmare of his club’s past troubles and this feeds his perceived inability to lead and lack of self confidence. He is reliving the events that nearly tore the club apart and is fighting against his subconscious in the form that it takes. He wakes up in a sweat, wrapped in the sheets and realising that sleep will now evade him, he gets up and gets ready to face the day. This doesn’t get any better as it is reported in the club “Church” meeting that a past member has reared his head where he shouldn’t have, but it is pushed to the back of his mind as the meeting progresses and other reports are given, including one that reported that the drive-by’s past the house that they have been asked to look out for by another chapter, haven’t noticed that externally, nothing has changed.
Next we meet Patsy, her son is on the run and she has made the tough decision to follow him and leave her daughter behind when he had to go into hiding from a past that, if they are found, would probably mean the end of them. They are trying to settle into their new lives in San Diego and as she is left alone in the house again, while her son is at work, she relives the worst event in her life and the reason why they had to leave their home. As she is looking at her business and debating with herself how to move forward with it, she hears the passing motorcycle again and wonders who they are and why they are passing by there again.
We next see Lost in Church again, when their technology expert reports that he has had a message he cannot track at all, say that “They know where they are” and they debate what they are going to do. The result of this debate is that Lost will go to discreetly visit the house and let those living there hear the bad news. This is where Lost and Patsy meet for the first time and not their last. As Lost and Patsy discuss the situation, the danger is made apparent to her and her son and this is where the real story begins.
As their paths become fraught with danger, passion, mystery and rebellion, they discover where their paths will take them and the costs that will hinder them along the way. For a passionate tale of new beginnings, overcoming past traumas and forging of loyalties, both new and old, prepare yourselves to become invested in another world.

I could not wait to get my hands on this one. We met and visited the San Diego Charter back in Darts Book, as well as learning the story of Dart, the new sitting VP and his adorable wife, Alex. I believe this is also where we first met Lost. Then enter Patsy, who we met in Inks book. I actually didn’t think I’d ever see Patsy and her son “Dan” again. Surprise surprise!!
I’m not even sure where to start with this review except to say I Loved It!! I fell in love with Lost just by his photo on the cover, and learning more about him and his insecurities just strengthened that. Add in that him and Patsy are not spring chickens and I was completely done for. Their story totally touched my heart and will absolutely be one of my favorites of all..Thats not easy to say because they are all special but this one just a bit more to me.
I love that I’m able to be a part of watching a new chapter begin their start within this series. I felt the same way when we met the Colorado chapter and after meeting all of their members I’m chomping at the bit to get my hands on the next one. This author has ruined me for any other MC series. MC’s are one of my favorite genres and Manda checks every single box on my list of what I love most. So many books yet every one of them is different while still holding on to that main important aspect of it all being a family. I’m so looking forward to rereading this whole entire Satan’s Devils world someday.
Super curious about what was going on in the last few pages of this book, and can not wait to see what that is all about. Some answers were never received in this story leaving things wide open for Lost and Patsy. Also no hidden clues about who the next book is about, or if there was I totally missed them.
LOVED IT!!! I NEED MORE!!

Being Lost is the next installment in the Satan’s Devils MC Series by Manda Mellett. This is book one of the San Diego chapter. Ms. Mellett is one of my go to authors. She brings the harsh reality of the MC to light along with the strong love and passion they strive for. Lost is one of my favorite characters in all of the Satan’s Devil’s books. He is strong but doesn’t know it. He cares greatly for his club and wants to protect them at all costs. He has to learn to trust his instincts and Patsy is just the woman to help him. This story had me on the edge of my seat more than once. I couldn’t put it down. I highly recommend this book and look forward to reading more of the San Diego Chapter.
