Depay’s life changed the moment he discovered that he was a father. After fighting for custody of Hadley, his now four-year-old daughter, he embraces the changes that he must make to give her the home she deserves; but not until after a tiny slip up leads to one last reckless moment. After a chance meeting turns into a sexy romp, he walks away from the woman to focus solely on his daughter.As a … daughter.
As a former Russian mob princess, Veronika had never experienced anything like the fleeting moment she had with Depay. Never anticipating that she would see him again, she is unexpectedly forced to track him down to discuss the consequences of their brief but steamy encounter.
As a firefighter, you play with flames and hope you won’t get burned. But when an arsonist turns to murderer, things are bound to get explosive. When Depay’s job encounters trouble that leads to his doorstep, choices need to be made. Like a backdraft starving for air, the choice of life or death will stare him in the face…open the door or keep it closed. Will more lives, including his own, falter in an attempt to extinguish a blaze?

Depay & his Doamond have a great meet-cute (still cute even tho it’s steamy!) & I love how their relationship progresses. FAST. LOL
This series has a great sense of family, and there are lots of drama things going on, but outside of their relationship. In the relationship, they work together to make their lives together work.
Depay is book three from Schmidt’s Broken Deeds MC. Depay is one of my favorite characters he is sweet , has a huge heart, deadly, an alpha, a firefighter, he has a dirty mouth, he is an emt and biker. He has tats from his head to his toes…whats not to love about this character. At the end of Broke he meets a woman, takes her home, nails her to the wall and walks away. Well let’s just say she will walk back into his life with an unexpected surprise and Depay will go full on alpha to claim his prize. Nika aka Diamond is Depay’s lady to be, she is a Russian mob princess and she falls for a special biker. Diamond is smart, sexy and one time against a wall turns into the ride of her life. Schmidt does not disappoint with the bi-play between these characters. Their attraction and chemistry for eachother pours off pages. Absolutely love these characters in this series.
Schmidt pulls you into her stories and takes you into this world she creates. She makes you feel as you know these characters and all the emotions they go though.
This story will give you laughter, ahhh moments and maybe tears. Its oh so good…plus Deeds makes some appearances and he is my fav Broken Deeds character. Depay is another book boyfriend in my opinion. I highly recommend Reading Depay but you have to start with book one Deeds to get the entire storyline and the world Schmidt has created. Plus once she hear of other appearance characters in this book that belong to her other series you will jump right into her stories. Happy Reading!!!
Read in January 2017
I am astounded every single time I pick up one of Esther’s books, every single time she gives me a read to get lost in, to feel every emotion while reading it and to be just a little lost when I finish. All this is a sign of a fantastic author, I also know as a fan she usually is writing 3 or 4 books at a time going back and fourth as the characters speak to her. This is Depay’s story, now we know from the end of Broke’s book that he found out he had a young daughter and has just got full custody. The first day she fell in a pond and nearly drowned, rescued by a young women Niki. Her and Depay had a hot interlude when he took her home, now the story picks up a few weeks on.
Depay is loving, caring, hot and pretty much everything you could wish for in a guy as well as an awesome father who has put himself out to learn how to care for his deaf little girl. He regrets that he didn’t know about her before or that he wasn’t involved in the pregnancy or birth, so when he finds out in an unexpected way that he is to be a father again he is all in, in every way possible. That he has already fallen in a massive way for the women is just icing on the cake, he just needs her to understand and give him a chance. With loads of other stuff going on as well from various directions this is full on excitement and tension, plus lots of love and support all round from Deed’s Broke and their Ol’Ladies. I loved, loved, LOVED it. Where Broke literally broke my heart, Depay had me falling in love with him from the first page, Niki as well is loving, caring and funny in many ways. She definitely brings out the Alpha male side of Depay, all the possessiveness comes to the forefront. All the meal preparation is so funny, and those hormones well! what can I say she had me chuckling away. There is some sadness to this story as well that just wrenches your heart, even though out of that does come some joy for someone else. All in all this is just one of those books that will stay with me for a while, I cant let go just yet.
Gotta love Depay! Depay and Veronika have one encounter with each other which leads to a pregnancy. Depay just got custody of his daughter, whom he did not know about. He devotes his life to his daughter. Then Veronika comes back into his life to inform him of the baby she is carrying. Depay being the awesome, caring guy he is, he steps up and takes her in and takes full responsibility. Taking this journey with them to get to know one another, and figure each other out was beautiful. They may have fallen fast but it worked. Esther Schmidt just has a way of writing a story that is so breathtaking and believable.
What?!! Holy freaking emotions!! Who knew? This MC just keeps surprising me! Broken Deeds MC is not your stereotypical MC but at the core, they are. Brothers, family mean everything and they will do anything to support each other.
Depay, we learn some of his story in Broke and my days it made my heart lurch but in this one……melted!!! His relationship with Hadley is just beautiful and then Diamond literally falls in his lap and BOOM! FEELS, ten-fold.
Can I just say…Grams?!!!!! You go girl!! And in a total one-eighty, heartbroken for the brothers when danger lurks. Full on tears! If you haven’t already…..READ THIS! Yes, shouty text!!
DEPAY FINDS A DIAMOND..
Depay has only recently found out he has a 4 year old daughter…Her mother, who never told him she was pregnant, has passed away, and the day Depay gains custody of Hadley, he and some of his brothers and their ol’ ladies took Hadley to the zoo, where she accidentally fell in some water….and Veronika, who is Russian and a virgin, pulled her out… Depay “followed Veronika home”, and hasn’t been able to stop thinking about her since….Now, Nika has come to tell Depay she is pregnant, and he sees an opportunity to claim her and this baby…and he takes it…Here’s a twist…Nika is the daughter of a Russian mob boss with whom the club has had not so good dealings…
I love this series…These hot, alpha, bada$$ bikers are the sweetest guys with the biggest hearts….and when they find what they want, they just take it…Why do we love that so much?? Esther E. Schmidt has conquered the MC experience…The books are shorter, too…so you can read it straight through…ANYTIME…..I really do love this series….
3rd book in series. I like the way the author gives these bikers a heart. Yes they are rough and crude but she also brings their good qualities to the forefront. The sex scenes are steamy.
Depay’s life changes as he fights for custody of his daugher and then a Russian mob princess comes into his life. Part time firefighter he discovers something more sinister.
This is by far one of my favourite book by Esther yes I know I’m always saying how great her books are but seriously if you haven’t read anything by her I highly recommend you do. We’ve seen clips of Depay throughout the other books in the broken deeds series on how he fought for full custody of his daughter. And how he came to meet his diamond.
But now it’s time to get the full side of this dirty talking tattooed alpha and let me tell you, your in for such a treat. While he maybe covered from head to toe in tattoos this man has a heart of gold.
Especially when it comes to his girls and family he will walk through the fires of hell itself to protect them. Holy hell when I finished Depay talk about emotional damn it one minute I was sobbing next I was smiling, then I was like fuck that’s hot, and then to go to feeling like my heart was going to explode from all the different emotions it provoked in me. I could go on and on about this book but I won’t because you need to read it,to get the full on Depay effect and see for yourself why you should never judge a person for their looks but for what it is they have in there heart and soul. This was a 5 heartfelt star read for me.
I’ve become a big fan of this series rather quickly! I love a good MC book and I can say that I’ve fallen in love with Esther’s storytelling.
Depay and Diamond (AKA Nika, Veronika) are returning characters from the other books in the series. Depay is a tough inside and out. However, he does have a soft spot. Especially for his little girl Hadley. She’s a unique and special little girl that has popped into his life when he least expected any changes happening. Everything he does is for her, including putting his love life on hold. He’s a devoted man in general. Honestly, I fell in love with him myself!
Diamond grew up in the Russian Mob, the daughter of a mob boss who has been sheltered most of her life. She’s used to be treated like a doll or fragile ornament. She is anything but that! She’s ready to take her life to another level and works hard at her passion of artistic creation. Now that her father is passing on his position as boss to someone else, she feels free to change things up. She’s such a strong character that you can’t help but feel a connection with her.
Then they meet, and everything changes quickly. Their connection is instant and HOT! Not just because Depay is a firefighter either! He’s been trained to protect and save lives. To run into burning buildings to do so. She believes in love and creating a life for yourself, to following your dreams. When they come back to each other, will their attraction fuel the fires or burn them out completely?
Outside of their little happiness bubble, tragedy strikes left and right. They have to figure out how to stay one step ahead of everything while protecting the lives they’ve pledged to take care of. But the saying goes….when there is smoke….there is fire!
The twists and turns in this book were quick, intriguing and fantastic! For two characters who are in many ways opposites, Esther was able to bring them together in a way that has you on an emotional rollercoaster! I ADORED this whole book!!! Seriously, if you haven’t already read the other books by Esther, go get them all! You’ll end up like me and binge reading most of her books in a 7 day period. Yes, I really did! This is very much a five star worthy read!
I need More of the Broken Deeds MC
