Ransom:I was given this name for a reason. This wasn’t my first go-round with a stuck up little brat. This time was different. Her dad made it personal. I was tired of living in a past that haunted me every day and she was the reason I decided to take control of that. I wasn’t expecting her to change herself. I wasn’t expecting her to change me.Henley:I was born into a different world. I wasn’t … world. I wasn’t oblivious to what was happening around me, I just didn’t care at the time. My father gave me everything I ever wanted on a platter. Then things changed. They shifted and I was on the receiving end. When I’m kidnapped, I wasn’t expecting the reality that was shoved in my face by a man I never met before. I wasn’t expecting to find something deep inside of me that I’d never known was there. Now that I’m his captive, I’m not sure I want him to let me go.

This is the third book in the Daytona Chapter of the Souless Bastards series and is definitely a great addition. Ransom and Henley are well written, intriguing characters and not always what they see to be. This book is typical Erin Trejo, twists, turns, suspense, and surprising. A page turner from start to finish and really well paced. Great read.
I received an ARC from Booksprout and am honestly leaving this review.
Wow. What a storyline. This was a great book from beginning to end. I absolutely loved Ransom. I will be honest I had a love hate relationship for Henley. Her character was so well written that you couldn’t but have that love hate feeling for her. She was a self centered and only cared about herself. Thank God that eventually does change but she goes through so much to get there. Everything she goes through is at the hands of Ransom. Ransom is wanting to get revenge for his mother at the hands of Henley’s father. That is how these two get together. But it becomes so much for both of them in the end. It was an intense interesting gripping storyline that will have you hooked until the end. You will fall in love with these characters. Highly recommend this one.
Ransom and Henley’s book is not for the faint of heart. It’s raw and gritty and I absolutely loved it. I’m excited for more in this series.
I love Erin Trejo and all the novels she’s written and once again she hit the mark with Ransom. She tackled another difficult topic in Ransom and was able to bring to life the actual horror faced by women under these circumstances. I look forward to the Neo’s story coming next!!!

Erin Trejo has captured the danger and excitement that one would expect from rough and tumble members of a biker club. Ransom is pure masculinity and power with an unbelievable heart. Her descriptions of this man are hot flash inducing to say the least!
He has suffered unimaginable pain in his past, and as luck would have it he is offered up the perfect opportunity to exact revenge on the very man who killed his mother. All he needs to do is kidnap and trade his spoiled princess of a daughter….breaking her as a result is just good karma as far as he is concerned. As fate intervenes,Ransom finds himself drawn to the very woman he is meant to destroy.
Henley knows her father is not a good man. He gives her a lot of money to look the other way, who is she to say anything, if the women he pimps out want to be prostitutes it’s not her concern. When she is taken by a scary but incredibly sexy biker she learns the truth of her father’s dealings and just how far back his deceitfulness goes. Somewhere along the way the man who would be her captor captured her heart.
The brotherhood of the club introduces secondary characters to the story and the reader has no choice but to fall for each and everyone of them. I found myself wanting to know more and more about all of them.( Thank goodness it is a series!)
I recommend this book (series) to anyone who enjoys dangerous, incredibly sexy men who still act like men with soft hearts under it all and heroines who are sassy and stand beside them toe to toe!
Lord Have Mercy this book is flipping amazing! Erin Trejo? You are one bad chick, you did it again lady you did it again! Well Done
This is a dark, gritty, and enjoyable MC Romance. Ransom is a complex and distant character who evolves throughout the course of the book. I found this a quick and entertaining read. 3.5 Stars!
First let me say that this is only the second Erin Trejo book I’ve read so far. I enjoyed her story line and creatively. I like the writing style and flow, so it’s an easy book to read. Ransom drove me a little nuts though! He was so hot and cold. He’d go from raging pissed off at Henley to kissing her in the same second. And it happened a bunch of times. I did enjoy Ransom’s alpha side and his need to protect Henley.
Henley was okay, a little whiny at times. Overall good story and worth the read.

Ransom & Henley
When I first started this book, I didn’t care for Ransom much and really hated Henley’s character. However, I quickly warmed up to both of them, how could I not, they were both so broken by their pasts and watching them find real love in each other was a pleasure.
I love Erin’s work especially her MC she manages to make these men hard and tough but she also manages to bring them to their knees with the perfect woman for them.
This is Ransoms story he sets out to kidnap Henley a rich mans daughter after all kidnapping and ransom is how he got his name What he didn’t expect was Henley yes her father gives her as much money as she wants but she has also seen the dark side of his business practices. Also this one is personal to Ransom she is the daughter of the man that destroyed his life. Now Henley is questioning her acceptance of her father as she learns more about him from Ransom but she is also changing him making him feel again Do they have a future together
Title: Ransom (Soulless Bastards Daytona) Author: Erin Trejo Genre: Contemporary MC Romance **RECEIVED ARC FOR HONEST REVIEW** I have been reading Erin Trejo books for some time. Yes I began reading her work when I got on a MC Romance kick. I have always liked her gritty, raw, snarky characters. She pushes boundaries in her books. It could be something simple from a lead character’s looks that don’t fit the “norm” to killing off the title character or even juggling the distinction between abuse, Stockholm Syndrome, breaking a person for the greater good…. darkness is a playground to Erin Trejo and as a reader it makes you stop and ask yourself what it says about you that you like it so much. But no kink shame here. WE DO NOT DO THAT! Cause Erin can tell you I like gun and knife play with the best dark authors. So, that said, I like the story and I hope Ransom finally saw he was being a hypocrite. He was being just as selfish even when saying he wasn’t. Men. Sheesh. But relationship wise I really think that part needs to play out more. Too insta and Stockholm for me. Just my opinion. Intense but not as intense as it could have been. Would have liked to have seen more inside Ransom not just at the end. 3.5 stars but giving 4 on the chart. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Mannn, I don’t even know where to start. This book is top of the line grit. Another great addition to the SBMC series. I love how one girl broke a beast of a man. Ransom and Hen are two broken people who are fixed when they are together. And can I just say PIPER! I love that kid! Check this book out along with the rest of the series. SBMC 4 Life!
Ransom … his name depicts his purpose, his actions show us whom he is. Lost in such darkness after a life altering event he sets his sights on Henley (love the name), she too is lost in darkness though to us looking in they seem on opposite ends of the spectrum. A few of the darker parts are not for the light hearted.
Erin Trejo did a great job on this story. Ransom was a great story. The plot was strong, it was written well, it was packed with many emotions, action, suspense and more. When Ransom kidnaps Henley, even though he knew everything he could, he never expected to feel the way he did about her. They may have had their problems but these two they were made for each other. They were drawn to one another. Their attraction was strong and their chemistry was intense. They were great together.
I enjoyed this story. I’m looking forward to reading more of this series.
Thank you, Erin Trejo. Great work 🙂
Loved this book, found it hard to put down once I started to read.
Ransom seeks revenge on the man who killed his mother and has hurt many young girls
Henley chose to not get involved with what her father was doing.
When her father’s secrets hit home Henley soon becomes her father’s latest victim, forcing Ransom to save her and deal with his demons.
From one page to the next Ransom and Henley take you on a emotional, action packed, dark and twisted read. this book was absolutely amazing it has everything you want and doesn’t leave anything to the imagination and won’t leave you hanging. So can’t wait to read the next.
This was an other great read from the MC world of Erin trejo. This book was a little darker than some of the others in this series, which I loved. Pasts collide as ransom takes a girl to show her the error of her ways. Enlightenment through darkness. Henley, doesn’t want to acknowledge the wrong in her life, this book covers dark themes, in a world of bad men, worse men will run havoc. Great read, loved the twisted darkness of ransom’s soul.
It is rare that an author manages to get all the feels from me in one book. Erin Trejo has proven to be that rare author that can give me a book that is hard to read, troubling and angsty, and yet I can’t put it down even when the tears are rolling down my cheeks. This is one of those books.
Ransom is a biker that is looking for revenge against the man that made his life a living hell. The man that forced him to watch something so brutal that he himself has no problems being brutal when the mc needs him to be. Henley is the spoiled rich girl who gets handed everything she wants by daddy. Henley doesn’t feel her dad’s love, but her bank account sure is flush. When Ransom kidnaps Henley to get back at her father, the man who destroyed his young life, the two will never be the same.
As I recommend quite often with Erin Trejo books, grab a box of tissues, a bottle of wine and one-click this book immediately. You won’t be sorry.
I’m really loving this series!! It just keeps getting better and better with each book!!
Henley has lived a rather spoiled life thanks to her fathers disgusting business so when she is taken her life is thrown into a major tailspin.
I really love this entire series. Ransom and Henley’s book was action packed and a page turner. Getting glimpses of him in the other Soulless Bastards MC Daytona Chapter books had me waiting for his book. Ransom has a very dark past and he is given the chance to take revenge on the man who killed his mother in front of him. Ransom kidnaps Henley because her father owes the club money and her dad is connected to human trafficking and during this time Ransom can show her exactly who her father is. This book is a great addition to the Soulless Bastards MC series. I cannot wait for Neo.
