Mayhem. I bring it. I own that shit.Then I walk away and leave you to clean up the mess. That’s the way I’ve always lived. For me, there is no other way. This is who I am. With all of this world comes death. I’ve experienced it first hand and it ruined me. The Taylor was thrust into my world. She was everything I should have stayed away from. Too bad I don’t follow directions. Taylor: Rich snob. … directions.
Taylor: Rich snob. That’s what everyone thought I was. They didn’t know me. Not the real me. My dad may have thrown me away but I still held onto the idea of family. I wanted to prove myself but when my dad’s threats are directed at me, I’m tossed into the arms of a long dirty blond-haired rebel. I wasn’t supposed to fall for someone like him. So, I fought my attraction. Let’s see how well I do at that.

Wow, I am in love! I had to tell my husband I have another boyfriend! Mayhem is my kinda guy….sexy, sweet and crazy! At first Taylor was not my kind of heroine- way to passive and mousy (in attitude), but I love how she came into her own as the book progressed. I really like this series, in true Erin Trejo fashion, it has some twists and turns. Can’t wait for the next one!
Rating: 4.5 Stars
Mayhem seems to be in a funk and just wants to be left alone. Taylor Masters isn’t happy right now but she knows enough to do something about it. She seems so sad and alone. These two couldn’t be more opposite in personality and temperament. But they both have a side that no one sees.
I’m glad that we get this story told in the first person even though Mayhem comes across as a real a**hole. This is a grittier look at a man who’s trying to overcome a personal demon. It’s also real steamy and really hot – just like our main character. There were times where I felt more like a voyeur than a reader. I wouldn’t say there are any heroes here but when it comes to protecting the ones they love there are glimmers of those qualities.
This is going to become an addictive series. It’s a ride that I don’t want to come to an end – even if I don’t ride a motorcycle. But what helps is that I have a neighbor who does so it made it interesting to hear the rumble as I’m reading Mayhem’s story. Until the next book in this series comes out, I can find plenty of her other MC books to check out to keep up that sense of rough around the edges men who have no excuses and finally find the women who can handle them.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
Loving this series!
Mayhem and Taylor’s story was awesome. It was full of action and lots of steamy moments. That had me glued to my kindle till the very last page.
Mayhem has struggled after the death of his girlfriend. He hasn’t been able to move on. The club sends him on a job to take his mind off things. What he finds is so much more…
“I come with death, destruction, mayhem.”
Mayhem is probably my most favorite character in a long time!! Equal parts insane, cocky, arrogant, with a softer, sexier, more pliable underbelly!! I absolutely loved him!! From the start of this story, I was hooked solid…I was screaming at my kindle when characters did not behave or listen to what I wanted them to do, and it was so fun to read!!
“She’s everything. She the light when I need her to be, but she’s also gentle when I need that. I can trust her with every secret I have.”
Mayhem and Tay’s fall left me breathless, they had so much against them, and my jaw kept dropping as obstacles kept popping up. Not lying that Mayhem drove me crazy trying to fight his feelings, but that made their relationship so worth it in the end. They made me laugh, scream, tear up, throw my kindle, and melt right off my chair while reading!! I can not wait for more!! I thank the Author for providing me a copy to review!!
“She has a power in her. A power that holds my heart hostage. She understands me as the man that I am. The person I’ve become.”

Another pulse pounding epic release from Erin Trejo!
Mayhem is the Soulless Bastards MC enforcer, and is hired to act as security for the mayor’s daughter. Who knew that the mayor had a daughter? Especially one as delectable as Taylor? But Mayhem isn’t looking for a woman; he’s still mourning the loss of Becca, four years later….
Taylor: “I wish I had a life. All I have is the regret of the past and a new diploma. One day I will make a move and get out from under his shadow. One day I will have a REAL life.”
Taylor was sent away from home at the age of eight. Her father blamed Taylor for the death of her mother from cancer. Taylor knew it wasn’t her fault, but the heavy cloak of guilt clings to her shoulders, weighing her down. She desperately wants to escape; escape her father’s contempt, his constant denigrating comments, his active dislike…. And she thinks she’s found a way to be free…
Mayhem: “I shove off the wall, tired of this conversation; I don’t take my job lightly. This is my life; this is the way I live.” But Taylor is so sweet, so innocent, so delectable…
“I’m no good, Tay. Don’t look at me like I’m your savior.”
But Taylor believes differently. She knows, in her heart, in her soul, that Mayhem would never hurt her, not like her father. He IS her savior, and she’s determined to prove it…
Mayhem: “She’s everything. She’s the light I need her to be. She’s strong when she has to be, but she’s also gentle when I need that.” “In this moment, I knew I’d never let her go. She will never be away from me.”
Gritty, graphic… real. I felt tears welling as I read this book; it strikes hard: the pain, the empathy, the sheer challenges that Mayhem and Taylor face, not only with the world at large, but with each other. A captivating read, with sexual tensions running high, and graphic sex scenes as well. Erin Trejo has outdone herself with Mayhem!
Can the Soulless Bastards MC NoCal men get any hotter?! First there was Declan and now we have Mayhem’s story and oh, what a story it is. Mayhem is the enforcer of the club with his dad being the Prez. Mayhem just had a job handed to him and that was to pull security on the mayor’s daughter, Taylor. There’s a problem though; Taylor looks just like the love of his life that died four years ago and left Mayhem a broken man. Does Taylor even have a chance at pulling Mayhem out of the nightmare his life has become and does Taylor want to take a chance on a man who kills and doesn’t bat an eye in doing his job? Both of them have issues with the way they grew up so is there even a chance for Taylor and Mayhem?
Be ready for a book you can’t put down. It will pull at your heartstrings all the while it will have you fanning yourself. Who could ask for anything more from a great MC read!
VERY DISAPPOINTING
This book was very disappointing to me. After how much I loved book 1 Declan this was not at all what I’d expect for Mayhem. In book 1 his character was kinda wild and crazy fun but bad@ss but also had a little soft spot for Brooke. Now in this book he didn’t really seem so Bad@ss to me. He’s the enforcer for the MC but he seemed too heart sick and laid back and the story made him too depressing. His love and loss of Becca over took the story. He didn’t seem tough and strong at all. Then there’s poor Taylor who’s character is meek and mild and totally naive and innocent not strong at all and definitely not the type of woman for Mayhem. There just wasn’t much of a storyline. The most excitement in the book was at the end when Taylor’s father shows up at the Soulless Bastards clubhouse and then we’re told that mouse is down but when the book ends we’re never told what happened to him. Nuts turned out ok but what about Mouse? This book just didn’t do it for me. There was no laughter, no suspense or mystery and very little excitement and the sex wasn’t even that great. I highly recommend the series but I didn’t like this book at all.
OMG!! I’ve volunteered to review this book for United Indie Book Blog. Erin Trejo is one of my go to authors to read. This is the second book in the Soulless Bastards Mc No Cal series. This is Mayhem and Taylor story. This story is very emotional beautiful. I was so addicted in this story and couldn’t put this down. I read the whole story instead of sleeping. It’s so full of action, adventure, steamy hot sexy chemistry that will keep you turning pages. Keep up the amazing work Erin! I can’t wait to read Tic’s story. I HIGHLY recommend this series.
My heart went out to these wounded souls. Tays father was an ass and had hidden agendas she knew nothing about and Mayhem is messed up in the head with the death of Becca, although it wasn’t his fault and choice she made. So they get messed up in each others agenda and try to find their way to each other. I like Tays charactor, she was a pistol and didn’t take anything from anyone. Including Mayhem. There was one place that was funny when he was with one of the club girls and he called her Crayola Face, I cracked up. There is danger, heartbreak, steamy sex. Great book Erin.
Erin Trejo keeps the momentum going with the Mayhem Soulless Bastards MC No Cal Book 2. Mayhem is just that mayhem…. violent. He lives the hard life not taking any crap from anyone. Taylor is secluded and the polar opposite of Mayhem. Their two worlds collide. Action, chemistry and broken hearts fill the pages. Erin Trejo thank you again for another awesome book.
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome, Awesome, Awesome
Love, Love, Love, Love, Love, Love, Love, Love, Love, Love, as you can see that how much I’ve enjoyed Mayhem’s story, just Phenomenal, and 5 stars
Mayhem
Stars 5
Mayhem is hilarious he’s as his names same choas on a sexy stick when he becomes security for the mayor’s daughter he and Taylor don’t see eye to eye. Taylor just wants to feel wanted, her father blaming her for everything in his life. Running to mayhem was all she wanted but his past haunted him, it almost breaks them. Great read loved the characters.
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… Mayhem kills you softly with the emotions he carries so deep …. You fall for him in the first book and then his story deals the deal … A must read Erin Trejo is one of my go to authors and she never disappoints.
An emotional and danger filled read
Taylor, the estranged daughter of the mayor, dislikes Mayhem, Enforcer for the Soulless Bastards MC, when she finds out he has been assigned as her night security by her father. As the story progresses their dark pasts interfere with their present, family meddling will bring them together but tear them apart and a dangerous surprise could end it all. Erin Trejo has given the reader an emotional and danger filled read with her second installment of the Soulless Bastards MC No Cal series.
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.
Loved this one. I absolutely love Mayhem. He is suffering after 4 years from something that was out of his hands. Then he ends up having to babysit protect a girl who changes everything for him. I loved him and Taylor together. Hot steamy enjoyable chemistry. This was a well written story line from beginning to end. Highly recommend.
I loved the role Mayhem plays in Decs story. So I was very excited for this book. I love the heart that Mayhem has. I am not sure about the Tay character. She didn’t seem to be as kick ass as I though his old lady would be. But still enjoyed the book.
ღ Mayhem is the club enforcer & the son of the Prez, but that don’t mean he doesn’t pull his weight in the club
Mayhem is assign to guard the mayor’s daughter… Yay… not … 1st she looks too much like his past love… the love he still hasn’t got over 4 years later…2nd the look of content she give him , only tells him she spoil brat
Mayhem soon learns how wrong his judgement of Taylor is
Taylor Master is the mayor’s daughter & he been pushing her away since her mother die when she was only 8 years ago
Taylor has been living in Rome for the last few years studying, but her father force her to return to the last place on earth she wants to be. Cuz her lovely father has enemies
two broken souls trying to find their way in life the best way they can
• in the being of this book I really didn’t like either one of these character’s, but Ms. Trejo work her magic & they slowly work their way under your skin
Mayhem & Taylor both have their own issues, will they be able to work their way through them together or will they end up going their separate ways?
Either way in the end Mayhem & Taylor have changed each other’s life, only question is – was it for the better or worse?
one way to find out how the story play out, is to “one click” this book & find out for yourself
I really enjoyed Mayhem & I am excited to see what Ms. Trejo will writes next with Tic’s book .
Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion & my honest review
Paulette Review
Where do I even begin with this one?!?! They say opposites attract and this proves it along with that everyone deserves to be loved. This book has it all, laughter, WTF/SMH sections along with heart breaks and tears (yes, I cried a few times during this one lol). Never judge a book (or person) by the cover because there is always SO much more!! Onto Tic (book 3)
Mayhem by Erin Trejo is awesome. This is book 2 of the Soulless Bastards No Cal MC series. This is the story of Mayhem and Taylor (Tay). Taylor is the daughter of the Mayor, who is in the pocket of the MC. Her father sent her away when she was 8 and has now brought her back because someone is after him and he wants her protected and he asked the MC to do it. Mayhem is the Enforcer in the MC and as such is the one who is tasked with protecting Taylor. When they first meet Taylor acts like she doesn’t like him but there is a strong chemistry between them and they can’t ignore it. They both have issues in their pasts, Mayhem lost his girl to drug/overdose and Taylor’s father blames her for her mother’s death from cancer. Will Taylor and Mayhem ignore their past and concentrate on the future? Will the issues in their pasts come back to keep them apart? You must read the book to get the answers. My emotions were all over the place while I read this book. I cried, laughed, and got mad. This book is steamy and has violence, suspense, highs and lows, twists and turns, emotional baggage, angst. This is a must read book. I can’t wait for the next book by Ms. Trejo.
This is the second book in this phenomenal series and is Mayhem and Taylor’s story. Mayhem is assigned to protect Taylor, and the chemistry between them is intense. However, Mayhem is stuck in his past where he has loved and lost, and Taylor is dealing with issues of always feeling unwanted. This is a well written story which is filled with angst, suspense, drama, and is a steamy read. I was hooked and intrigued throughout this addictive page turner, and I cannot wait to read the next book in this fantastic series, and I highly recommend for all readers.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this novel from BMBB!
