Enormous, commanding, and hotter than sin, Copper is the only man Shell has ever wanted. Even as a young teen, when it was impossible and taboo to capture the attention of a grown man, she longed for him. For years, Shell clung to the dream of turning eighteen and finally being noticed by the Hell’s Handlers’ rough and gruff president. But the universe had other plans, and she was forced to make … make a horrible choice. A choice that altered the course of her life forever, sealing her fate and ensuring the dream of being Copper’s ol’ lady would never materialize.
Sixteen years his junior. Daughter of his MC’s former president. Single mother whose deadbeat sperm donor doesn’t provide an ounce of support. Loved as a younger sister by every man in the club. The list of reasons goes on for Copper to stay away from Shell. Problem is, he’s been hot for her for years. Copper finally gets some relief when she moves out of Tennessee, but once she’s back, all those reasons to keep his distance grow weaker by the day.
Unable to fight against his own judgment any longer, Copper finally claims Shell for his own. But once again the universe steps in, revealing secrets with the power to destroy them both.
Shell will do anything for Copper, even tear out her own heart and confront the most agonizing parts of her past. But will she be too late to save her dream? Will she be too late to save Copper?

I love the entire Hell’s Handler’s series. It’s raw and gritty and at times violent, but the men are all about their women and they’ll do whatever it takes to protect them and keep the safe. I loved all of the books in the series1
This book had all the right stuff! I have not read anything by Lilly Atlas before but I am seriously needed to get to the store and get me the previous books in this series. So much compiled inside of 31 chapters. It is tear worthy, heartbreaking and renewing in faith in those around you and the strength getting added to sometimes your family isn’t always blood! This book had fun, action, mystery and let me just tell you the sizzle was fire worthy!
Copper and Shell are the best of everything as to their shared history, the ways in which life gets in the way and how it can heal you and bring you back to something so powerful you will be some much better for it. It has a character or two that you may want to throw off a cliff or something equally as horrible they are so bad! I love when an author can make you feel that strongly about the characters and their story!
Rock on Lilly Atlas!
I could not wait read Copper and Shell’s book. You just knew there would be fireworks one they got together, I wasn’t wrong. She was made to be his queen. This book is full of betrayals, secret and a lot of hotness. I was on the edge of my seat. On to the next book.
This is the 4th book in the series, and by far tied for first place with Maverick. This book is on my short list of re-reads. I adored this book!!!
This Book is about Copper (the MC President) and finaaaaaaaaally, his woman Chell (who is the daughter of the former president, and has had a HUGE crush on Copper since back in the day of her daddy).
This book has so many feels with it. There is so much in this book, that it is hard to say stuff about it without giving spoilers out.
Can Copper help this over worked single mom save some money?
Can he figure out why she is so terrified?
Will he pick her over his family?
Does he finally claim her?
You MUST read this story!!
You will NOT be disappointed!!!
**the audio of this book is stellar!! Couldn’t be better!! They did an awesome job narrating this!!!
Oh my gosh yes! I have been waiting for Shell’s and Copper’s story. Their story I just knew was going to be amazing. And It was. There was a few new twists that I thought were well done. The ending was just perfect. Now on to Rocket.
Copper and Shell’s story is my favorite so far in this series. Laugh, cry, lust and love, their love is palpable!
Copper
Copper was a great read. The sacrifices and heart break that shell made for copper who was completely unaware was astounding. Shell would do it all again in a heart beat for the man she loved. Copper did not want to want shell he fought his attraction to her for years but when she came back into his life he realised the heart wants what the heart wants and it wanted shell with a passion. Then daekness assended on the club in the form of coppers blood brother rusty and shell new all her secrets would come crashing down on her and she could only pray that copper would understand why she did what she did all those years ago .
These books get better and better and i for one can’t wait for the next book in this series.
The story kept me interested. Secrets from the past and the age difference almost keep Shell and Copper from giving into their hearts’ desires. Shell was so independent, and I loved her spunk. I loved Copper’s soft side when it showed, especially toward Beth. This was about family, loyalty, and what this group of people would do for these.
I received an ARC through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
This book was epic! Surprises around every corner, hot bikers, and enduring love combine to form a book that will stick in my mind for a long time to come. I’ve enjoyed books by this author before, but I’ve got to say, I really think this one is my favorite!
Shell was brought up in the MC. Her dad was president, until his death. Circumstances beyond her control force decisions that one as young as she was shouldn’t have to make. Years later, she comes home, young daughter in tow, to find the one that held her heart then, still brings out those same feelings.
Copper is everything you’d expect in a biker president. He is a rough, hard drinking, hard living man. These aren’t your guys next door, or college frat boys. These are men’s men, and Copper is tougher than most. He has feelings for Shell, but knows he is way too old for her. But there is more going on than Copper knows, more than he ever could have imagined.
This entire series is amazing, and each book just gets more fantastic. I loved the amazing connection Shell and Copper had, the heat that just seemed to build the farther I got into their story. This book is an absolute must read!
Omg, another amazing book. So much twists and turns. And we finally see Copper take his head out of his butt. I always wanted these two characters to get together.
I loved Copper, he is a great leader, loyal and takes everything on his shoulders. He wants to deny his feelings.
I loved Shell, she is loyal, protective and independent. She will do anything to stop those she cares about have trouble.
I really loved this book, and highly recommend it.
Copper is the president of Hell’s Handlers MC. Shell is the former president’s daughter that Copper promised to stay away from and keep the other guys away. Now that Shell is grown up, Copper finally gives in to his attraction to her. Shell has loved Copper ever since she was a young girl but choices made her move away. Now there is nothing stopping the couple from being together except a brother. Will Shell and Copper be able to overcome their problems and be together? A great read that I enjoyed. I plan on reading the other books in this series. Can be read as a standalone.
Copper is book #4 in the Hell’s Handlers series. Copper can absolutely be read as a stand-alone but you will miss some of the back stories and understanding of certain characters. I recommend you start with Zach, book #1 and so on. Now that my warning is done here is my review!
“But there’s a code. There’s loyalty, family, protection.”
I have been waiting for Copper’s story since Zach! Copper is the president of the Hell’s Handlers MC. He has been fighting his feelings toward Shell for years. Copper feels that Shell is off limits because she is sixteen years his junior and the daughter of the previous Hell’s Handlers president. He promised her dying father that she would be protected, and not let any of the bikers in the club near her.
“She was the perfect combination of sweetness and biker babe all wrapped in one sexy as sin little package.”
As Copper approaches his fortieth birthday he starts to wonder why he feels so restless and dissatisfied. The men in his club are all settling down and it is starting to have some appeal. Copper and Shell have had a natural pull toward each other. Chemistry in spades. But Copper has always kept his distance. He knew he’d be done if he touched her…
“…he never touched Shell, not hugs, not pats on the arm, not even so much as a handshake.”
I loved Shell! She suffered from unrequited love for many years as she crushed on the gruff, raw & fierce Hell’s Handlers MC president. She is loyal to the club and has made many sacrifices for them. Shell still considers the club her family and it hasn’t stopped loving them even after her dad’s death.
Strong females are present throughout the Hell’s Handlers series. I love how the women support each other. Shell is no exception. She is a single mom to 4 year old Beth. She works hard and refuses to take money or “hand-outs” from the club. Shell is stubborn, thoughtful and kind. She is never afraid to go head-to-head with Copper. Having Beth at eighteen has kept her busy. I loved how Beth was incorporated into the story. Such sweet and funny moments as she wrangles all of the big MC men around her little finger!
There is so much to Copper and Shell’s story! Circumstance and situations from the past and the present kept me on the edge of my seat! Although Copper is the tough MC President he also has a soft side that Shell brings out of him. And Beth! Copper will melt your heart as he loves and cares for the tiny but mighty four year old!
I have really enjoyed the Hell’s Handlers series! Although it is a bit contemporary I felt it had a great combination of angst and romance with just the right amount of grit. Jigsaw gave us many emotional moments. Copper did as well but combined them with heartbreak moments as well.
“The women of the MC were its heart. And quite possibly the backbone. Each strong and kickass in their own right.”
If you are look for a sexy, hot MC series with strong men and even stronger women then Hell’s Handlers is for you!!! I am hoping for Rockets story next and I have a feeling it will really grab at my heart!
4 stars!

I have read the Hell’s Handlers entire series and enjoyed all. Copper is a great character and has been consistent throughout the series as has Shell. All their interactions have been laced with sexual chemistry and so much tension it jumps off the page. This books has some surprises for the reader and so very tense moments. It is a sexy read but is much more than just a sexy romance. Plus you get to visit characters from previous books once again which is a real treat. Don’t miss this one!
4.5 Stars
I really enjoyed Copper and Shell’s story. It was a fast paced lots of drama, action and super hot steamy scenes.
Copper stayed away from Shell because firstly she was too young, and secondly he promised her dad, the clubs old president he would keep the other men away from her. But on his fourtieth birthday he just couldn’t stay away anymore and did he really want to. Life was good, the club was doing well and he just got the best news ever, his brother was getting out prison.
But the moment Rusty came home, things started going wrong. Someone was stealing from the club and Shell was pulling away from him.
Shell has been in love with Copper for as long as she can remember, but he wont give her the time of day. But lately things has changed, and it seems that finally she her wish is coming true. She finally has her man, but fate has other plans for them. She has been living with a terrible secret and will Copper do when he finds out her secret. Will her stay by her side or will this be something that tears them apart before they have even began.
Lots of drama, lots of action, funny moments and a great MC story. Hope there is more in this series.
Cooper can’t remember what happened but the next morning tells the boys, Shell is just a kid not realising she was there and could hear and made sure he knew before walking away. Even though he was feeling bad with what happened with Shell, the news his brother was getting out early made everything right.
Shell knew pushing Cooper was bad idea, but she wasn’t talking money from the club, but what he made her feel when he kissed her was worth it, but when it sounded like he was claiming her she knew it couldn’t happen, but they could have some fun.
When Cooper sees her scare from the C section, he lets her know that he knows she has secrets, he wants them all.
It was magical with Cooper, but she knows it won’t be long before she has to leave, some secrets are meant to stay buried and co
but it was magical with Cooper, but there were secrets and what will happen when Cooper finds out about them all. But Shell’s secrets show up sooner than she thought, her friends tell her to tell Cooper, but it would tear him apart. Cooper knows that Shell has secrets and that he should walk away but he can’t, he was going to find out what they were someday, but what happens when he finds out the secrets that affect both him and the Hell’s Handlers.
This is my first book by this author and I did enjoy it. There was a lot that went on and the romance with Shell and Cooper was in the forefront but it also had suspense and action that helped move the story along. I love that there was some push with Cooper. He fought his feelings and when he finally gave in it was like fireworks. There was laughter, sweetness, steam and action. I couldn’t ask for more when it came to the plot.
At times I found it hard to connect with the characters. I’m not a huge fan on 3rd POV so I’m going to guess that it why. I was an overall enjoyable read and I plan to go back and read the other book in the series after seeing the characters in this book. 4 stars #2OCCJD
We have watched this pair lust for each other for the past three books and now we finally get to see Copper and Shell get their HEA. Little hints in the previous books clued us in on the fact that Shell had secrets but holy moly, I was not expecting just what they were. As for Copper, I couldn’t wait to see him finally give in to his feelings for Shell as it was obvious just how much he yearned for her.
I was really looking forward to getting my hands on this story and I was not disappointed. So much happens, so many secrets revealed and yet there is still more to come. With lots of action, drama and HOT bedroom action, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and couldn’t put it down until I’d finished it. I can’t wait to read the next one, which I’m hoping will be Rocket, and Copper gets 5 stars from me.
Let’s start off by saying that Lilly Atlas is one of my top MC author’s who is on my auto buy list and she is our go to author for really awesome MC reads. I loved each and every story I have read by her so far but, Copper just moved up to the top of my favorites list right along side Jigsaw.We loved it beginning to end and everything in between.
I was so looking forward to Copper’s story and the author did not disappoint.Copper has been one of my favorite character’s all along I just loved the big bruting man and I was waiting for him to get his head out of the sand a make the one women meant to be his all along and pursue his own happily ever after just like his brothers.
The aura that surrounds Copper definitely states “Danger Beware” and he also has no problem commanding a room and is well respected but, also he is a man who makes things happen and their is not a brother who wouldn’t give their life to save his. I loved seeing a different side of Copper this time around a softer side a bit vulnerable , a man a bit lonely perhaps searching for love of a good women and a family and someone to be his Queen but, one thing stands in his way of getting all that and It is the women who he truly loves but, thinks he can never have.
Shell was one of my favorite character’s as she was a loving and giving person, was independent,hard working, a wonderful mom,a great friend,determined and had a great sense of humor and a larger than life personality.
The story was full of a ton of drama ,had a great cast of character’s and one mishap after another and a traitor in their mix.As the story unfolded we saw betrayals,jealousy,heart wrenching secrets coming to life that were best kept secret but, most of all we never saw the bombshell that was dropped coming our way!
“Omg ! I was reeling to the very end of the story and was still in shock once it was over!”
I loved the romance between Shell and Copper as she was perfect for him in every way .Shell loved him fiercely even from afar and made life changing sacrifices for him that impacted her life and that of her child but, most of all just showed us the lengths she was willing to go to protect what she always considered hers.
Shell broke my heart and brought tears to my eyes with all the burdens she carried for such a young women yet,she took it all in stride and soldiered on.
“She was an incredibly strong women!”
” I was in awe of her!”
The chemistry between Shell and Copper was off the chart’s.The sex scene’s super hot and sexy as sin.Can you say Hot ! Hot Hot!
” I want a Copper of my own!”
“Holy Hotness!”
We loved the story and all the surprises it wrought.So looking forward to the next story in this series…
A recommended read to all it was such a heart wrenching read and we loved it!
This authors stories kept getting better and better!
This one goes into to the keeper pile to be read time and time again!
This is the fourth book in the Hell’s Handlers MC. They are stand alones, but there is a story line for the series also.
I’ve been wanting Copper and Shell’s story since the very beginning.
Shell has always loved Copper. She’s 16 years younger than he is. She’s also a single mom to Beth, who is 4. She’s a hard worker. Doesn’t take much help from anyone, unless she has no choice in the matter. She is completely loyal to the Handlers. They are her family. If she was a male, she would be a patched member, that’s how loyal she is.
Copper is the President. He has a thing for Shell, but he’s hung up on the age difference and what her dad asked him before he was killed.
This is an amazing story. We get to see how Shell has always, and I mean always been loyal to the club, and Copper.
She is amazingly strong because of what she endured as a teen.
Lefty is still in the wind. I’m hoping Rocket gets a book. Where was he when he was MIA in this book?
Every King needs a Queen to help with his Kingdom, but not everything is cupcakes and rainbows when the Queen has secrets that she has been hiding to protect the king. When your past comes in like a Tsunami, threating to take you down with its total destruction from within all you can do is stand tall and strong and dig in with your warriors around you and supporting you along the way.
Michelle “ Shelly” Ward was the Hells Handlers Mc Princess, but has always wanted the one man she thought would never look her way, but her past is about to come in like a massive storm and possible tear her new kingdom apart from the inside out. Shell is a strong woman who relies only on herself and takes care of her daughter, but now she needs help and the only man that can and could, may also destroy her heart forever. Can she be his queen forever or be taken down to nothing more than a peasant in his eyes?
Copper Hells Handlers Mc president is a Tough as nails takes no prisoner’s when it comes to his Mc and they ol’ ladies attached to the club, but when the one he swore to keep himself from slowly creeps into his life, his heart and his soul is almost ripped from him because of a shit storm caused by a brother he never truly understood, he vows to destroy not only him but to save his Queen and make everything right in her world and his kingdom for good. Can he slay her dragons without her falling apart or stand stronger and taller by his side?
This is a first for be by Lilly Atlas, and it took me some time to get into the story but once I climbed that hill all bets were off I was swept away in the storm of the story, the characters jumped from the pages like a coaster going down a track with no end in sight. There were a few slow spots in the book but soon picked up speed again, I could feel the pain and anguish that shelly felt, and Copper there were times I wanted to smack him in the head for being so bull headed. But all in all this was an amazing story and I have now found a new author I am going to be reading very soon.
