Okay, first time reading your work and believe me did amazing! The scenes are hot, and not to mention the heroine is one tough lady that can go toe to toe with anyone including a man. I’m giving this book 5 stars, and I can’t wait for the next one. #ErinTrejo #SoullessBastardMcNoCal
Declan
5 stars
This is a great mc book. I loved the characters and the dynamic between them all. So much going on it keep me engaged throughout. Brooke was a bad ass I loved her firey nature and Declan was a caveman biker wanting to protect his girl.
Have you read Erin Trejo? Well if you haven’t let me tell you she is awesome like she is great in everything that she writes but I first fell in love with this series… Declain pulls you in with the pain he carries from his childhood but wins you in the end with his devotion to his woman. Erin Trejo is one of my go to authors and she never disappoints.
A gritty and realistic look at motorcycle clubs
Brooke, manager of her uncle’s strip club, encounters Declan, VP of the Soulless Bastards MC, when she is dared to go down to their club’s house and ask for a beer from one of the bikers there. As the story progresses their world’s collide, secrets destroy and they must determine for themselves if they want a relationship. Erin Trejo has provided a gritty and realistic look at motorcycle clubs, the women they love and the way they influence the places where they live. I am looking forward to seeing what she has in store for the rest of the club.
I received a free copy of the book from the author as part of the boxed set. I had the opportunity to review or not.
Absolutely loved this book. Declan has become a favorite for me. There is just something about him that has you wanting more. I absolutely love these two together. Brooke goes through something terrible when she is a kid. She has grown up to be strong and her own person. All she wants to do is get her uncle’s club back up and running. But one dare leads to a whole new adventure for her. Brooke and Declan together are just extremely hot. I love how she becomes his world even after she finds out the truth. Erin wrote a great book. Highly recommend . I am so hoping there is going to be more from these boys.
ღ This a wonderful start to Erin Trejo new series. I don’t know how to put into words how much I loved this!! It exceeded all my expectations
This is the story of two people from two entirely different worlds. They met by chance once when they were younger & it was a day that changed both of their lives forever. Now fate has brought them back together again..
• Now Brooke is all grow up & is working at helping her uncle strip club get back in the green
She at her bestie house when she is dared by one of her friend to go into a biker clubhouse & grab a beer. That’s when she first meets Declan, or so she thought that was the first time she meet him
Declan lived & breathed Soulless Bastards, he was prospect at the age of 15.He didn’t know any other life
Declan has come from a long line of Soulless Bastards. His dad, his uncle, & his grandpa Hell, the Bastards date back into the sixties.
Declan is now the VP & with that in mind you can imagine how arrogance this man is, but for good reason – he sex on stick gorgeous
My favorite part of the book was just watching these two together. Watching them grow first into hot & heavy lover’s then into friends & so much more. I loved seeing the changes they were making. They are so connected to one another Declan has this way of being able to open Brooke up & bringing her out of her shell, something no one else could do.
They both carried secrets, but Declan’s secrets were ones no man should have carry. Especially now that his feeling for Brooke have changed to so much more
What will happen when Declan’s deepest darkest secrets are revealed?
Will Brooke run , or stand & fight?
one way to find out how the story play out, is to “one click” this book & find out for yourself
Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion
would I recommend this book: Hell Yes.
would I recommend this Series: Hell Yes.
Paulette Review
I Love Declan & Brooke!!
OMG I absolutely LOVE, LOVE this book!! I can’t wait to dive into book 2 next!! This book proves you can’t mess with fate ever. What’s meant to be will be!!
I’m Hooked !
Erin knows how to make you forget what’s going on in your life and place you right in the middle of the chaos in her MC worlds . 5 Stars!!!!
Declan and Brook are on FIRE !
She’s a spitfire that can take him on without a doubt and he’s willing to take that challenge .They fit together perfectly amongst all of the Raw emotions and dark secrets threatening to keep them apart …it’s intense .
Their sexual tension is off the wall .Lets just say the things Declan can do with a cold piece of metal will leave you extremely satisfied .
I’llDefinitely be on the lookout for upcoming Soulless Bastards chapters .I’ve got my eyes on a few characters I need to know more about .
What the…What the…What
Chapter five had me questioning what I was actually reading and i was totally scared that I loved every minute of it. Then at the end of that chapter I was like “oh “bleep”, things just got real here”. Leave it to Erin Trejo to bring up some crazy @ss stuff.
Declan is intense, raw, emotional, drama filled, sexy and hot damn if Brooke isn’t a spitfire you just want to LOVE! Oh and hot bikers too! You seriously can’t go wrong with this book.
My god if Declan isn’t the sexiest thing around I don’t know who is. Total Alpha Male! Just loved him to pieces. Protective bad $ss to the extreme and takes what he wants when he wants it.
Then you have Brooke. Damn the girl is a spitfire and the banter back and forth between Declan and her was priceless and had me laughing at time. She by far gives Declan a run for his money and has him all over the place and takes absolutely no $hit from anyone. My kinda girl. #TotalGirlCrushing
Throw in Blue, Mayheim, Tic, Mouse, Candy and the rest of the Souless Bastards MC and you have one hell of a read. I couldn’t put this book down. It has everything and then some that I love in an MC book. A definite must read.
#GunSex – just gonna leave that here. #Priceless #WhoWouldHaveThunk
Declan and Brooke are freaking explosive together. They are both dominant characters and at times I wasn’t sure that they were a match for each, but I was proven wrong numerous times. He softens around her and she allows him to take some of the burden that weighs heavily on her shoulders. They allow themselves to show the vulnerability that lies hidden within around others.
What also really kept me interested in the story was how the past collided and the secrets that came out. There were something that I had already guessed at, but others that I was not expecting.
The conclusion shocked me. That I was not expecting, but after everything else that I had read, it made a bit of sense.
Another thing that I really liked were the other characters that I got introduced too. I know that the men of the MC will get their own books (hopefully!!) … but I am also hoping to see more of Ashley and Angel in the coming books.
Overall, DECLAN was an awesome introduction into the Soulless Bastards No Cal MC. I am very much looking forward to what comes next.
loved Declan and Brookie’s story. Cant wait to read more about the Soulless Bastards MC.
With all the street violence in the news, almost every day, the Prologue can be tough to read. Knowing that, don’t skip it because that’s how we first get to know Declan. Brooke is a young woman whose life hasn’t been easy. Their first encounter? No words to describe – sexy?, hot? Neither word does justice to the scene.
These are two people who tell it like it is with language that could burn virgin ears. It was interesting to watch Declan soften around the edges as the story progresses. But that doesn’t mean he still won’t be a bada** when he needs to be. Sometimes the first book in a series can feel long because the author has so much world building. Never had that feeling here. There were some things that occurred that shows the life of someone in an MC. But if not for that life, Brooke would not have gotten the help she needed. I loved this from beginning to end but was disappointed in not getting any surprise or hint of what’s coming up next. Wanted to stamp a foot but that would help and depending on how hard I did it, it could even hurt. If you’re into MC reads, than this author has plenty to choose from until book two comes out.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
What a Terrific start to a new series. I have found a new MC to love and that’s the Soulless Bastards MC This series starts off with the club VP Declan’s story and oh how i loved him, totally swoon-worthy.
Declan is a die hard Biker, he grew up in the life. Brooke is one tough and feisty woman, after witnessing the execution of her father as a child she grown up an amazing woman, He has really met his match in Brooke. She shows no fear and just accepts him for who he is.
The connection between them and the chemistry is scorching red hot. They just need to survive the revelation of secrets from the past and the threat to Brooke.
Not only did I love Declan and Brooke but I also loved the secondary characters Mayhem, Blu, and Tic so I am looking forward to their stories.
Erin Trejo has brought us a well written, fast paces MC series that holds on the features of an MC book that you love, sex and violence.
Looking forward to seeing what comes next in this new series
Another awesome MC book from Erin Trejo! I love MC and she does not disappoint!
Brooke is just trying to keep her uncle’s club afloat. She is given a dare that leads her to Declan.
Declan is the VP of his club. A girl walking up for a beer just doesn’t happen. When he takes her home the fire ignites.
Declan and Brooke have a hot sexy start but will their shared past be too much for them to handle? Will it wreck them?
A great book! I look forward to the next installment of this series!
Declan and Brooke are a match made in hell. Both are broken people who lost loved ones to violence as kids. Declan was forged into a steel sword by his Dad and MC life. A stone cold killer who hides his humanity deep inside. Brooke witnessed a horrific event as a child. She is a consumer of life. Anything that makes her feel good and forget for a while. It’s all about the thrill.
Soon after Declan meets Brooke all kinds of kinky fireworks explode. A scene that is shocking and titillating that lays the groundwork for their future relationship.
Prepare yourself for this one. An intense, crazy ride all the way to their HEA. Erin Trejo is one helluva storyteller. I am looking forward to more from this No Cal branch of the Soulless Bastards.
It all started out on a dare, but Declan and Brooke had a past that went further back. I loved their chemistry, especially the way they fought the attraction. They were never meant to be, but can they get beyond their past? Great characters, great story and I especially loved the ending. Awesome start to a new MC series.
This author is on FIRE!! I love how she isn’t afraid to follow where her characters take her!
Declan and Brooke’s story is so hot – like burning hot, heartbreaking at times, and I love the sass of Brooke! She is so sassy and will not be told what to do….ever! Well that is until she meets Declan. No one tells Declan no….
When the ghosts of the past come knocking at their door, will the truth of how interwoven their past is destroy them or make them stronger?
Declan is more than just the start of an MC series. It’s the start of an Erin Trejo MC series which means it contains intrigue, intensity and of course some hot sexy scenes. Plus it contains characters that are likeable and perfect for the storyline and each other.
The storyline starts out when Declan is a young boy and he’s forced by his father, the Soulless Bastards MC Prez at the time, to kill the cop that took Declan’s mother’s life right in front of the boy’s eyes. Declan has no regrets about killing the cop but he was forced to do so in front of his two young daughters. To some it was an eye for an eye but to Declan he remembers the pain in the young girl’s eyes and that incident shaped him into the man he is today.
The story fasts forward to Declan as a man. His uncle is now the Prez and he is the club’s VP. Declan is as tough as they come and lives for the club. We also meet Brooke. She is one tough young lady. She lives down the road from the club and during a game of truth or dare with her friends, she is dared to go to the club and ask for a beer. Of course Brooke takes the dare and that is when she meets Declan. Dec is called to the gate and ends up giving her heck and dishing out nothing but trouble. But trust me when I say Brooke gives as much as she gets when it comes to Declan. Dec ends up walking her home and taking advantage of the situation, something he soon regrets. The trouble is, Brooke keeps coming back to him asking for more of the same. Declan knows Brooke is something special and not like most of the women he hangs around.
When Brooke’s uncle is killed and things start falling apart around Brooke, can she trust Dec and the club to help her? When secrets of her past come to light will she stay the strong tough woman Dec has come to know or will she finally crumble? The storyline is sexy, flirty, fast paced and action packed. Ms. Trejo will take you on one amazingly wild ride that you don’t want to miss out on. 2 Thumbs Up for a great start to what this reader predicts being a phenomenal series. So bring on book 2, I am sooooo ready and can’t wait!
Declan is the VP of the Soulless Bastards MC NoCal and he was born into this life. Then Brooke walks up to his club on his dare and she turns his world upside down. Add in some men who want what Brooke has and will do anything to get it. When their pasts collide with their present it puts their future in jeopardy. This author knows how to write a great MC book, she pulls you in and wraps her stories around you. I loved this story and Brooke is so strong and balls to the wall. The story had so many twists and turns. I can’t wait to read Mayhem’s story next and see who turns his world upside down. Great story, even better characters and can’t wait for more. Highly Recommended!!!
Man with a gun??!! Really?!?!? This author does it to me like no other. Her MC books are straight madness and wonderful reads. Her MC’s are broken and battered and foul mouthed and foul tempered. Their attitudes do sometimes make a change for the better, well when they find their “Old Lady”. But when they find an old lady that can take the guys down and turn around and give them hell, like Brooke, well she just melts their hearts. This time though there is trouble. And when the past comes back full force it just might be the thing that breaks these two for good.
This author is awesome and I truly love her work. I do wonder sometimes how her mind comes up with some of her scenarios. I do love her MC’s when I need some time with the wonderful men she hides under all that foulness.
