Joker’s Fool: Satan’s Devils MC #8 by Manda Mellett – Review by Liz Vrchota

Joker’s Fool by Manda Mellett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was not my first Satan’s Devils MC novel from Manda Mellett, but I would have to say this is by far my favorite yet! If you haven’t read all of the previous ones available that is not an issue, this can be read as a standalone. Mellett does a wonderful job of tying in enough of the previous story lines where it is needed that you are not lost. I would recommend going back and reading the others though because they are all good novels and do build up as they go.

Joker’s Fool really brings the emotions to surface. Be prepared to feel just about all of them as you read the journey that Joker and Lady have taken to get to where they are and then as they figure out where they will fall into place in the future. I also want to throw in a quick disclaimer of sorts here. Please don’t pass on this book because it is categorized into the M/M romance category, especially if you have read the other books in the series. This book is so much more than what you would expect to be getting. I have put this on my top five, hit me in all the feels, and tear-inducing reads of 2018.

Joker’s journey is no joke. Pun intended. His past ripped my heart out as I read it. I wanted to reach through the kindle and embrace him, heal all his broken pieces. I was grateful when there were finally those hints of light glimmering though in his future. What his struggle did do for me as a reader though, was make him realistic and connectable. Mellett wrote him and his emotions with a tangibility that I couldn’t get enough of. Lady was an equally connectable character. He is that once in a lifetime kind of love we all search for, exactly what Joker so desperately needed. These two may have been a wonderful thing eventually but the story isn’t in the happily ever after with this novel. It really lies in how they each got there. Both have to face some secrets, obstacles, fears, and so much more to get what they really want. The best things in life are never the easiest ones to obtain.
