I wasn’t looking for a love connection.
But I didn’t count on Trainer.
Black leather. Intricate tattoos. Sculpted body.
He looked like trouble that I didn’t need.
Too bad he proved impossible to resist.
I found myself falling into bed with the tough biker.
But I had a dangerous secret.
Getting attached was a bad idea because I had trouble looking for me.
And I had to keep my son safe, no matter … secret.
Getting attached was a bad idea because I had trouble looking for me.
And I had to keep my son safe, no matter what.
I fled to La Playa to escape a nightmare.
Was it possible to find a future here with a good man?
Or would my past catch up to me and ruin everything?

She was running from the painful past-to be safe, but found a beautiful future too. The series keeps getting better! Loved Eve, Trainer and Dom!
It feels good that after Ryder took over, the Outlaw’s have cleaned the street. Doing good for the community.
Eve “Erika” had an abusive husband, & a 7yr kid-“Dominic” to keep safe. The story starts off with her running to La playa to lay low, start a new life. I’m proud of her, she’s a fighter.
Raul ‘Trainer’, the road captain, is in usual MC works. He was a foster kid, never had a good family. Until Mama Mae, who is like a mom to him (She’s great!), Outlaw souls became his family too.
These two met outside ‘Absolute fitness’ (Swole’s gym). The sparks were flying
From Swole, he soon find out that Erika have a kid. Will he pursue her?
Cue their unexpected meets! 1st at the club ending with a searing kiss, there he knew they’d a connection worth exploring. Then in front of the library with Erika & Dom. Dom’s amazing! He’s an old soul.. has seen so much so young. He deserves all the Happiness Erika’s a great mom!
Even if they wanted to, Erika & Trainer’s relation was never casual. It was intense, hot. The more time he spend with them, the more his feelings grew. They were both falling hard.. Park walks, leisure time pass.. just being a family. He’s so loving with Dom too *swoon!* I love the connection these two formed!
Soon she finally told him about the past. It was a big step.
Las Balas were a problem, but they weren’t the villain here. It was Jeff-her husband (soon to be ex!)
He called her, threatening. She was so panicked! I loved how Trainer handled it. He’s so gentle with her..
If she kept running, it won’t be life for her or Dom. So she choose to be here, fight. Live. With Trainer.
Everything was going great, Life was good. But then Jeff found her..
Omg, I hate that fucker! He’s so abusive. I’m happy Dom ran & Trainer soon found her.. (helpful neighbors..) It was very painful. Trainer knew he has to straight Jeff up so he doesn’t come after her or Dom. He was angry, frankly so was I.
The Outlaw’s were big help! I’m happy Trainer handled Jeff, Jeff won’t ever Harm the people Trainer loves again. All she felt was relief, happiness..Hope. She & Dom were finally safe.
Btw, now she can use her Real name too!
Trainer had always thought of himself as a loner, now he have Love, a beautiful family. AND he couldn’t be happier
The epilogue was awesome! Loved seeing how Trainer, Eve, Dom and Mama Mae were doing.
P.s. so excited for the next book!
Fleeing from an abusive husband, Eve and her son start a new life in La Playa. Unexpectedly, she comes in contact with Trainer, a rugged and leather clad senior member of the Outlaw Souls MC. Trainer becomes Eves salvation and knight in shining armour.
This is the third in the Outlaw Souls series, and I found it unputdownable! Hope Stone has again presented a well crafted and action packed plot to drive a delightful and spicy romantic tale…
I received this book gratis as an ARC copy
I really love this series the sexy motorcycle men and the woman they fall for. This author really can write a good story and i will be reading every one that she writes.
Each of this series is increasingly better, this is no exception. The heat is through the roof and the storyline is perfect
Love it! Trainer/Raul is awesome and my favorite in the series. Erica/Eve is a great character. Dominic is adorable. Mama is a wonderful character. It was great to revisit with my favorite MC, the Outlaw Souls . Hope Stone is an wonderful author. I can’t wait for Book 4 Blade.Hope Stone
This was a great read and another look into the Outlaw Souls. Trainer is a confirmed bachelor and he coordinates the rides the the MC does either for charity or fun. Erica was new to town with her her son Dominic. She was looking to start a new life. When their eyes collided on the street one day it was like a nuclear blast!
I really felt for the characters in this story. Everyone can usually relate to how one decision can negatively affect you for years. Getting her son away from all that was her motivation. She had to be Strong, fearless and brave to accomplish what she had done. I rooted for this couple by page 3! First few pages were scene setters for which we would be clueless without that setting.
It made me cry a few times but I also enjoyed the witty snarking at times and the flirty barter between Erica/Eve and Trainer.. who knew a big bad biker could have such a big heart! (Sigh) it s a great addition to the Outlaw Souls Chapter.
I reviewed a complementary copy of this book.
This was a marvelous book! For Eve to be able to leave her abusive husband with their son and try everything she can to make a better life for them was great. Trainer is definitely an amazing man, a keeper. The things they’ve both been through to get to the point they did but a rough road and we’ll deserving at the end. This whole series so far is great and I’m expecting the rest to be as well. LOVE IT !!
I received this as an ARC and this is my honest and voluntary review.
Book 3 in the Outlaw Souls series and it was a great addition to the series. Eve who is now Erica is on the run from her husband when she literally trips over seeing Trainer. Loved the chemistry between Erica and Trainer. This book was so hard to put down. Great read and I can’t wait to read more in this series.
I read an early review copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
Don’t touch what is his once he has claimed it
Trainer is the third book in the Outlaw Souls series and is about Trainer and Eve and her son Dominic. This book is well written and has an interesting and somewhat emotional story-line. Eve and Dominic, who is eight years old, have been through a lot with her abusive ex and now she is trying to make a new life for them the best she can, while trying to hide from her ex. She ends up crossing paths with Trainer and it is high octane explosive chemistry between them. For Trainer it is immediately knowing she is his one and he will do whatever it takes to have her and Dominic. That includes being protective and possessive and using his brothers from the MC when required.
The author is nicely progressing in her writing with this series. Things are starting to get more series and a bit darker with each book. With Trainer she has done a great job.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
Trainer aka Raul was a force to be wreaked with. He was alone and started to feel like he wanted more than one night stands. He was on his way to head to the bar when he saw her, Erica aka Eve. She was curvy and beautiful. He had watched her till she fell and he came over to her. That’s how they met. Erica is running from her abusive husband with her son Dominic. They have fake names and she was holding it all in. Then her and Trainer started out a relationship that she had to open up her past life to him if they wanted things to work out for them. To say it was a shock is an understatement but he stuck by her. He was always there for her and Dominic. Till one day her husband found her and all hell broke out. Will she stay with La Playa and Trainer or will she take off and start over? You need to read this if you want to know. Great book!!!
Riveting! A solid, easy, and exciting read with a grabbing plot that is consistent, interesting, emotionally deep, and well written. The characters are well developed, relatable, likeable, and have amazing chemistry. There is action, drama, twists and turns, suspense, intense romantic moments, and more! This story will draw you in and leave you on the edge of your seat wanting more. Definitely recommended!

There are several hot topics in this book: abusive husband, domestic violence, traumatized child.
Eve and her 7-yr-old son Dominic are running from an abusive husband and father when they end up in La Playa. She thinks she’s done everything she can to hide, changing their last names, changing her hair color, using cash, eventually getting fake IDs in their new names. Eve, aka Erica, meets some other young mothers at the library and through them finds both friends for her son and a lead on a job at a yoga studio, run by one of the Outlaw Souls. Through the latter she meets what she knows is the hottest man she’s ever seen: Trainer. Their chemistry is out of this world from the start and Trainer decides she’s THE ONE. He also knows she’s hiding something, and that something has seriously affected Dominic. One night she lets him know what that is, and he vows that if he ever met this man he might just do some damage. Eventually the husband tracks Eve and Dominic down and breaks into their home. Eve tells Dom to run and he does; the abusive jerk does his damage, but the woman who lives int he other side of the duplex calls the yoga owner, who notifies Trainer, and they race over to find her uncoscnous and bloody and no sign of Dominic. She ends up in the hospital and the Outlaw Souls set out to find Dominic. She starts to pack to leave, Trainer won’t let her, and they begin their HEA.
I was given this book in return for an honest review.
Another fantastic book to the Outlaw Souls series! The author brings strong characters in Trainer and Erica(Eve) and weaves an intriguing story that captured and held me from start to finish with all the twists and turns as well as the steamy chemistry and growing love between them. I loved reading their story and would highly recommend this book/series.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
I am in love with The Outlaw Souls series. All the books are exciting and steamy. In this one Trainer the road captain of the crew got involved with a single mother who was new to town and had some things in her past that she was trying to keep secret. Like all the other Outlaw Soul stories, the rival motorcycle gang Las Balas had a part to play in this series, however, in this story they were not the main antagonist to the story. I enjoyed how the characters in this series faced different problems than the characters in the previous books. I can’t wait to read the next book! I received a free copy of the book as part of the author’s review team in exchange for my honest review.
While his is the third book in this series it can be read as a stand alone but do yourself a favour and read Ryder and Pin as well you won’t be disappointed
Erica (aka Eve) and son Dominic are on the run from her abusive ex and she has no intention of ever getting involved with another man That is until she meets Trainer the attraction for both of them is instant and he has never connected with a woman like this ever. Then her ex Jeff shows up and Dominic runs to the yoga stdio where Erica has been working and Trainer runs to her rescue but things don’t work out how they should and not only Jeff is shot but Trainer as well Can this end well and will Erica finally get the love she deserves Looking forward to more books in this wonderful series about a strong family that is the MC
The third Outlaw Souls MC story. This is a fast paced, standalone, intriguing story. There is plenty of action, drama, adventure, danger, suspense, enemies, humor, fear, courage, truth, romance, passion/lust love and more. Erica and her son Dominic and running from an abusive, destructive relationship. She meets Trainer crossing the street and there is that instant connection. So much going on that you’ll have to read the story to really enjoy it. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I’ve read the two previous books in the Outlaw Souls MC about Ryder and Pin but there was definitely something special about Trainer he’s all muscle and tattoos he looks like trouble and to any but Erica he is but to her he becomes her rock and protector he wasn’t looking for and instant family but now that there his he won’t let anyone take them from him.
Erica and her 8 yr old son Dominic are running from her husband Jeff he’s wealthy has power and influence but he also evil and he’s abused Erica (Eve) for the last time. I’ve run changed my name and found friends and romance in Las Palos but then Jeff finds me and after what he dose Trainer won’t let him get away with it he won’t get away with all the abuse this time. This book has fire,danger,love,and one nasty piece of crap that will get whats coming to him.
I was allowed to read and advance copy of this book via booksprout and this is my honest review.
Erica is running from her past. She has an abusive ex that she doesn’t want to find her. She meets Trainer and things heat up.n good read and romance.
