This was my first book by this author. I am a huge fan of Sons Of Anarchy and this was a perfect fit for that genre. This is the story of Wraith and Sophie. I love Sophie, she is insecure about her womanhood after an accident puts her in a wheelchair. For her safety she is taken to the Satan’s Outlaws, and MC in the states. She is thrown into their lifestyle which she has never been exposed to before but makes friends as she starts to come out of her shell. This book made me feel every emotion; fear, sadness, anger, love, and joy. Wraith never thought to find someone that rocks his world enough to have an “old lady”, but he knows there is something different about Sophie as soon as he meets her. He wonders though, if she will fit into his hardcore world. Would love to see more about this couple and am looking forward to reading more books in this series. Triggers: Violence (domestic abuse and rape)

What happens when you do a good deed and it back fires, well that’s what happened to Sophie and now how can she get out of this mess.
Sophie is a great friend and within helping her best friend escape a horrendous relationship she becomes embroiled within a contract being placed on her head. So broken and at her lowest she is in the protection of a MC gang but can she survive her own demons as well as the devil who is her protector.
Wraith is the VP of the Satan Devil’s he can have any woman he wants but why does he keep getting drawn to the one woman he shouldn’t have, he is her protector but he needs to show her that she is still attractive and does not belong in his broken world, but getting close to her can he protector like he has been order too.
This is the first book I have read by this author and I have to say I loved the premise and the action twists and turns which will have you on the end of your seat. Did I find the attraction believable with the two main characters, well yes in certain ways but sometimes I feel that the relationship was trying to fit a certain pattern which got me a little flat at times, did this distract from the story, hell know this was only my preference and is only a slight critic. The story was well written and fast paced and was a pleasure to read.
I also love the getting to know different worlds and although I have read a few books in this genre it was fascinating to read the way the group dynamic worked and the structures and rules. I will definitely read the next book in this series and try the other books by this author.

Turning Wheels by Manda Mellett is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC. This book is an absolutely fantastic book and the start of one of my favourite series! This book is exciting to read and I was hooked right from page one. I loved the fact that from the word go the author was clearly not afraid of throwing in obstacles that you don’t often see in books. The fact that the main character is in a wheelchair and around an MC I just loved. It made it different from any other MC book that I have ever read. Manda Mellett is an author I wasn’t familiar with a couple of years ago now and yet has very quickly become one of those that I would one click buy without even reading the description. I love her writing style and how involved she makes you get into each of her books. The characters are always so well suited and so easy to connect with. This book is a brilliantly strong start to a series and it absolutely worth the time!

Turning Wheels is my first book from author Manda Mellet. I have also never read an MC book previously so was definitely into new territory with this book. It was an interesting story about a woman named Sophie who must leave her home in England to seek protection, after trying to help her best friend from an abusive relationship. Sophie arrives in Arizona to discover her protection come in the form of a motorcycle club, where she in turn meets the VP, Wraith. This book tells the story of Sophie and Wraith, all while Sophie tries to grasp her place into this foreign territory.
I did enjoy the premise of the story and reading those sections of the story. I did have to come to terms with what an MC actually is and how members live their life. It was very out of scope with the settings I typically read. I’m not huge into the more graphic sex scenes, so mainly skimmed those parts to get to the actual storyline. I will also say, I wanted a bit more closure with her best friends story, but see that her story is part of another series from this author so at least I can have more closure with that plot hole in this book. Although it wasn’t something I would usually read, I will recommend as a good read with an intriguing story of one’s survival in an unlikely place.

I have never read a book by Mellett before this one. Now I am pretty sure I am about to load up my kindle with her stories. Turning wheels had me in love from the start with this MC crew. Sophie had me rooting for her from the beginning , but at the same time had me yelling at her decisions. Wraith was the perfect alpha man with a heart for his woman that you’d want in your life. I love the fact Sophie had to work for what she wanted instead of it just magically being better for her. It touched on issues that felt real and made you relate to the group. I would recommend this book to any MC loving reader.

All I did was try to help my best friend escape her abusive boyfriend. And for that I ended up in a wheelchair. Life’s no longer worth living. No man will want me now. But my nightmare is only beginning. Ethan wants me as leverage to get his woman back.
I end up under the protection of the Satan’s Devils, an outlaw motorcycle club in Arizona. The woman I was would have been in her element among a group of handsome, rugged bikers; the disabled woman I am now feels scared and vulnerable, and soon I find this isn’t the safest place to hide.
But with a contract out on me, there’s nowhere else for me to go. There’s one reason for me to stay, the VP of the Satan’s Devils who teaches me to feel like a whole woman again.
Wraith
She doesn’t fit into our world. Fuck, even if she wasn’t in that damn wheelchair she’d be out of her element. But as soon as I saw her something attracted me to her.
From the start I wanted her, but she thinks she’s undesirable and is scared of taking a man to her bed as though her disability defines who she is. I’m going to need to teach her she’s wrong.
But before I can take my chance everything goes to shit. She’s under our protection, but we fail to protect her from one of our own.
Manda’s life’s always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she’s still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman?
There isn’t enough space to list everything that’s happened to Manda, or what she’s learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she’s met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected.
Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area’s claim to fame being the Wilkin’s Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter.
Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.

Throttle is the Sergeant At Arms in the Satan’s Devils MC and he lives and breathes the club, the life and the women which he propositions and he wants nothing else, he is the happiest he has ever been and change is the last thing he wants, despite his parents best efforts at requesting it.
Today he is dealing with a slight to the club, someone has stolen a Prospects motorbike and that is something which is a sin, a mans bike is sacrosanct and nobody should touch it without their permission, but to let their bike be stolen is just as bad, even if they were only away from it for a few minutes, but as usual the clubs resident technical wizz has trawled through endless amounts of CCTV and actually found it, now they just have to pay a visit to the scrapyard when it has been traced to. Throttle is more than ready for this type of action, it has been to quiet for him as of late, so getting the opportunity to grab the guys who stole it, find out what they were planning to do with it and take them to task while telling them the mistake they have made and the consequences which go along with it, none of which is pleasant, for them at least. After the warning has been given and the people of interest have been returned to their workplace in a much worse state than when they left it, Throttle’s dad asks him for a word and they talk about what his parents wanted for him and how he only ever wanted to be in the MC when he didn’t sign up to the armed forces, much to his parents’ relief, they also discuss the fellow member who has had mental health issues and making sure that Throttle isn’t heading the same way and whether his is happy, as well as says that he is not altogether appreciative of his lifestyle of one night stands and carousel of women he knows his son consorts with.
After the heated discussion, he is needing some space as his emotions are running high, Throttle heads to the bar/ restaurant the Devil’s own where he can get something to eat and a drink, but he doesn’t expect to see a girl he knew as a kid and hasn’t seen for years working there. As they catch up, it is like those years disappear and she seems to have her life sorted out which makes Throttle happy to hear, but as she is working, the conversation peters out and he instead goes on the prowl and sees someone he thinks may be the next to ride his carousel, however, the chance disappears until the manager of the restaurant asks him to come back the next day to help manage a bachelorette party, to which he agrees. The next day he returns to help out, but ends up following the group to the next venue, which happens to be a strip club also owned by the Devils, much to his annoyance, but the same woman who caught his eye propositions him at the end of the night and he agrees to go back to her place, but when he sets out the rules, he assumes she will follow them, that is until the next day when she tries to get him to go out with her, he refuses and thinks no more of it.
When he returns to the clubhouse later that evening, he hears that one of the waitresses has been hurt and when he realises that it is his childhood friend, he rushes to her side at the hospital after stopping at the bar to see what happened. The next day he receives an expensive gift from a mystery person and as he tries to follow up on this, he is still checking in on his friend, but he is starting to think about her more and more and this has him worried, especially when he finds out that her house has also been ransacked. As time passes and his friend heals, he is tailed by a mystery car multiple times as he checks on her, followed by a further gift and silent phone calls, this mystery deepens and he gets involved with someone else, but cannot see how they are all connected and neither can anyone else, is it a jilted lover, someone with it in for the MC, or something else entirely? This fast paced romp is a romance with a mysterious and dangerous twist as things out of Throttle’s control keep happening until he has no idea what is happening and you are pulled along on the journey with him you are just as mystified until the ending is revealed.

This is a romance with a dark undercurrent which sweeps you along as you watch events unfurl and see the decisions which have to be made and the consequences of the actions which follow.
This story is only for those over 18 with adult content and may contain triggers within.
Amy is a 27 year old woman who has grown up with the Satan’s Devils and branched out on her own to attend college and get a degree in nursing, albeit to the frustration and worry of her parents, but she is successful and knows what she wants out of life and one thing is to return home every Christmas and see her parents, sibling and the extended family of those living around her, but this year she is dreading it, she is worried that they will see right through her and want to deal with her problem’s the only way she knows how, but she might just manage it with Xander by her side.
As they drive towards the compound, Xander asks her how she is feeling as they get nearer to Tucson and her home, she replied honestly that she is worried and is tempted to go back, but she knows that if she isn’t there, then her family will definitely suspect something and that is the last thing she wants, but even though Xander is trying to convince her that she needs to open up to them about what happened, she is more worried about what their reaction is going to be. It is her fault the event happened and they will all just blame her and agree that she was at fault, but she is so glad that he is there with her so he can help her as he has done for the last three months. As they approach the compound, they stop at the gate so they can be let in and Xander admires the area as it is not what he expected at all, but everything is as she expects and hopes they have waited so that their traditions can be kept up where she puts the last decoration up on the tree. After this has been completed, Amy introduces her friend to everyone, but she awkwardly tries to avoid hugs from the men around her, although she doesn’t hesitate with her dad or the ladies and kids and she is more than thankful that Xander helps her to do that, using wanting to freshen up and unpack as their excuse.
As they unpack, she fills Xander in when he asks about the Club and the people in it, but understands that he can only know so much, but he also knows when to push and when not to, meanwhile her dad is talking to her mum and is worried about her and a little bit about the man she is with, albeit the usual checks have been done, then they reminisce about her childhood and how she had grown into exactly what she wanted to be. As they go back to the clubhouse, they meet up with another member and talk about her and get his view on the situation and he feels the same way that they do, that something isn’t right, but to wait and see what it is. Later on as preparations for the family meal are going on Xander goes straight in and helps where needed as Amy spends time catching up with the family, this is appreciated, but as she talks to her dad, he is watching for her reactions to his questions and the feeling that something isn’t right is solidified, especially as he notices more little things as the evening progresses and he is determined to find out what it is and so asks Xander to have a chat in the morning.
As Xander reassures Amy that nobody noticed anything was amiss, they go about their normal nightly routine, including helping her deal with her nightmares, which she appreciates more than she can tell him and to help calm her, he asks how Christmas works so he knows what to expect later on in the day. The next morning, they exchange gifts and head down to the clubhouse for breakfast and although she is worried, Amy goes along too, but when someone puts his arm around her she goes into a full blown panic attack and has to be taken outside, but just as Xander is talking to her, her dad comes out and overhears them talking, this is where Xander ends up telling him everything. Will Amy be able to handle the rest of Christmas day and be able to relax around her family, or will what they find out tarnish their view of her forever? This is another fantastic installment which deals with some heavy topics, but is engrossing as you ride along with the Devils.
Twisted Throttle: Satan’s Devils MC Second Generation #3 by Manda Mellett
This book is freaking amazing. Manda Mellett knows what she is doing by writing these fantastic books. Twisted Throttle is amazing.
Gwen moves back to town after college Pursuing a career in law she is working hard to pay off her debts. Then Throttle comes back into her life. The quote I chose for Gwen is: “You don’t need to do that. I can get a cab. Or…. Can you give me a lift back to my car?”
Noah, aka Throttle, is another kid who was born and raised in the MC. His dad being the ex-SAA of the club, but he’s now a patched in member. When Gwen comes back into his life he starts seeing her differently. The quote I chose for Throttle is: “F no. She was Lisa’s best buddy for a while back in high school, but she never came to the compound so you wouldn’t remember her. I used to pull her pigtails. We caught up when I came in a week back. I hadn’t seen her for years before then.”
Hawk’s Cry: Satan’s Devils MC-Next Generation #2 by Manda Mellett
This is another fantastic read by Mellett. She knows what to do to bring readers back to her books. Hawk’s Cry is just amazing.
Olivia was born and raised in the MC. Six months pregnant and now out on her own. Of course, her husband, Eli, is with her. Not having family or friends close by sucks. The quote I chose for Olivia is: “I do. I’m six months pregnant. I’m happy to try to get a job, but I’ve had an easy life. All I’m capable of being is a barista or something.”
Eli, aka Hawk, has left the club behind. He was born and raised there, but he doesn’t want the same for his kids. He’s let down family, friends, and his wife. Ths quote I chose for Eli is: “I’m my own man. I knew what I was getting myself in for, and it was the fastest way out. Dad would have tried to persuade me to change my mind, and I didn’t want to talk. My decision had been made. Sure, Throttle might have brought it up quicker than I expected and forced the issue, but though I’m hurting, I’d never take it back.”
Amy’s Santa: Satan’s Devils MC-Next Generation #1 by Manda Mellett
This isn’t the first book I’ve read by Mellett. I have read several of the Satan’s Devils MC Series. Each of them has a place in my heart.
Amy grew up on the MC Compound in Tucson. She was five when Drew came into her life and he’s the reason she left Tucson behind. Of course getting her independence was another reason. Then something happens. The quote I chose for Amy is: “You’ll always be Drew to me. Is it really that important to you?”
Drew, aka Wizard, owed the Satan’s Devils MC his damn life. They took him and his older sister in when things weren’t going good. When he meets Amy she’s ten years younger. As she gets older he can’t stop thinking about her. The quote I chose for Drew is: “The MC saved Mariana, and myself. We both could have died were it not for their help. Such a big debt owed, I wanted to give something back. So I prospected and became a member. When you went away, I was lost, adrift, made to re-evaluate my life. I f-ed up, Amy, I admit it. I’d lost my friend and realised I’d lost the girl worth waiting for. All I could do was throw myself into the MC. I aimed at becoming an officer when the old regime eventually retired. I lived and breathed the club, and I still do. Got to admit that.”
Grumbler’s Ride: Satan’s Devils MC San Diego #2 by Manda Mellett
If I could give this more than 5 stars then I would. Mellett has really done it again. You see Lost, Patsy, and Connor in this as well as new characters.
Grumbler is one of the oldest bikers in the club. Never wanting to find an ol’ lady or being tied down was his style. Was being keyword. Enter Mary and Alicia. The quote I chose for Grumbler is: “I’ll come find you when I’ve squared it with Lost. He’ll be fine with it. I just need to warn him what we’re doing.”
Mary is a widowed mother who is trying to get her daughter to learn from mistakes. When she meets a biker she isn’t sure what to think. When her daughter runs to him things change. The quote I chose for Mary is: “Yes, to being your old lady. Yes, to playing with fire and seeing how things pan out.”

I never turn down the chance to read an MC book, i love the danger and the romance, and The first book in this series has all of that and more. I’m not normally a fan of the older couple romances but i really enjoyed this and I cant wait to read the next book. There was so much chemistry between Patsy and Lost, its such a roller costar ride but one you definitely want to get on.

Sometimes a challenge comes along that can either make or break you…
Deacon has a great life. A loyal brotherhood within the Blood Fury MC. A successful bail bonds business he runs with his cousin, Judge. A faithful dog. He’s also an expert at seducing the ladies. He’s got the looks. He’s got the charm. And he’s got the skill.
Or at least he thought he did. Until he met his match. A woman who not only resists him, but challenges him at every turn.
As an expert bounty hunter, he’s been hired to capture a violent fugitive. Dealing with a dangerous man is one thing, but dealing with a stubborn woman is quite another. And the victim just happens to be her younger sister.
For Deacon, winning over a woman has never been this difficult. The more she fights his “charm,” the more determined he is not to give up. This is one war he can’t afford to lose, not only for her, but with locating the fugitive before he finds his victim.
It’s a challenge he’s willing to take on, as long as it doesn’t destroy him first.
Note: Blood & Bones: Deacon is the fourth book in the Blood Fury MC series. As always, this book has no cheating, no cliffhanger and has an HEA. It’s recommended to read this series in order.

As Road prepares to leave and set off for his road trip, he knows that it will be a slow one with the pain from his injuries reducing the amount of time which he can spend in the saddle. Even so, he hopes the time away will help him to clear his head so that when he comes back home, he will be back somewhat to his usual happy self.
When he gets close to the club, the idea that a warm welcome and a bed to sleep in is surely on the cards at least, but other than that, he truly has no idea of exactly what he will be walking into and this is where the story really begins.
What Road finds at the Utah branch will change his perceptions and life forever, but what that means for him is something that he may not have much time to figure out. In this tale of twists and turns, unexpected trials, tribulations and choices which have to be made, will Road be able to handle it, or is he in over his head before he has even walked through the front door? Only time will tell.

Another great great in the Satan Devils Colorado Chapter by Manda Mellett. Her books always have a way of bringing me into the story and holding me there till the very end. I may have not liked how the two main characters were brought together but they went through so much and together they came out stronger. I connected with Mel so much in this book and wish I could have read even more! I love how the Vegas trip and getting to meet so many more of the crew Ana Insight the crew! I love this story, I love this author. Each story in my view gets better and better! I can’t wait to read more and honestly have already started reading more of her other series! I give this book five stars.
Devil’s Dilemma: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter #4) by Manda Mellett. I love this series and I love Manda Mellett. This is the story of Melissa who has been in a relationship with Skull, a main member of the Colorado Chapter. Melissa is so easy for me to relate to because of her body image and her opinion of men. She doesn’t feel comfortable in her own skin until Skull takes her in. She loves the Family life of the Club and is devastated when Skull doesn’t come home one night. The Club starts searching for him but its like looking for a needle in a haystack. Enter Pyro who has always thought Melissa was the hottest, sweetest woman around but knew he could never have her because she belonged to Skull. Now he is trying to be Melissa’s friend, a shoulder to cry on as they grow closer and closer. Will Melissa and Pyro have a future together or will Skull finally show back up or is he really gone for good? Read Devil’s Dilemma to find out!

Devil’s Dilemma is the fourth book in the Satan’s Devils MC – Colorado Chapter by author Manda Mellett. After Melissa’s boyfriend pulls a disappearing act, she is left with no choice but to lean on his brothers with the Satan’s Devil MC and especially Pyro who has become a good friend to Melissa. From the start Melissa thinks she is less than, her boyfriend leaving doesn’t help this and Pyro and the guys of the club band together to make Melissa feel better about herself. But nothing is what it seems and the club must once again deal with problems they never saw coming. I think this series just keeps getting better and better! I think Melissa and Pyro are now my favorite characters. I loved the way Pyro supported Melissa with everything and couldn’t love her enough when she needed him. There were points in the story that I would have loved to have reached into the book and shook people but never Melissa and Pyro they were awesome. I look forward to seeing what will happen next…hopefully back to Las Vegas!!

Devil’s Dilemma is the fourth book in the Colorado Chapter branch of Manda Mellett’s Satan’s Devils MC series. As I’ve come to expect from the series, it’s an action-packed romance that’s at times tragic and heart-warming. Melissa is the protagonist of this one. I was particularly drawn to her because of her love of baking – I read a good chunk of this book while waiting for things in the oven! She’s uncomfortable about her weight and worries about her appearance but grows to trust others and how they see her and overcome some of her anxieties. The path to a happily ever after is rarely smooth, and for Melissa there are some pretty big twists and turns along the way. It’s a real page-turner, and particularly satisfying as things start making sense. As well as continuing the story of the Colorado Chapter, Devil’s Dilemma gives us an insight into the Vegas chapter of the MC. I really like how the stories link together, allowing us to catch up with familiar characters and introducing us to new characters who we’ll see developing later. There really is a sense of family and it adds depth and makes you care a lot more about the characters. For me, this is a four-star read. I’d never read any MC books before I started on this series, and it’s got me hooked! There are various places you could start – perhaps at the beginning of the main Satan’s Devils MC series or in the first Colorado Chapter book. Or, you can jump in here and discover the Satan’s Devils through Melissa’s eyes!

Devil’s Dilemma by Manda Mellet is the fourth book in the Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter.
Holy cow this book wasn’t what I expected, it was so much better! The story with Melissa, Pyro and Skull was a lot deeper then I realized and I found myself shedding tears a few times during this story.
Melissa deals with so much pain and heartache and it made me feel so bad for her. I wanted to hug her, and try to make her feel better.
What can I say about Pyro? He’s an amazing man and though he is a big burly biker he has a heart of gold and he shows Melissa and us that several times throughout this book.
I fall in love with this series and the guys in Colorado a little more with each book and I’m so looking forward to keeping up with them and their lives.

Devil’s Dilemma Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #4 By Manda Mellett ☆☆☆☆☆ This is a full length novel. You will find this to be a Romantic Suspense story.
Melissa and Pyro are the main characters in this book. It is their story! Melissa is a strong independent woman. Never thought she would ever find her true mate. Let alone find him in The Satan’s Devils motorcycle club. Pyro was never going to settle down. He is (shhhh) the sweetest man ever. He takes Melissa as a friend and her protector. Life is an unexpected adventure. He soon finds himself, questioning himself. No Spoilers!
Manda Mellett has done it again. Her story picks up where she left off in chapter # 3. Please stop here if you have not read #1- #3. While you can read this as a standalone, you really should try to read the others first. You will find this book well written and fast paced. A true page turner loaded with action and a really unique romance. I truly have enjoyed Manda Mellett’s motorcycle stories. This one being my favorite, although I say that after each book. Well done Manda Mellett! I’ll be waiting for #5.
Devil’s Dilemma: Satan’s Devils MC (Colorado Chapter #4) by Manda Mellett – Review by Randall Murphy This book gives a wonderful Motorcycle Club series. If you haven’t read any of the Satan’s Devils series, you can still enjoy this book, but the other characters mentioned in the book will not be familiar to you. If you are already a fan, this is Skull and Melissa’s story. It gives some back story that occurs prior to book 3. It continues their story and allows you to see what they go through before they find their Happily Ever After. As always, the characters are wonderfully written and very real.

Devil’s Dilemma (Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter #4) by Manda Mellett
5 out of 5 stars
I really enjoyed Devil’s Dilemma book 4 in the Colorado chapter of Satan’s Devils Mc written by Ms. Mellett. The characters are strong and well written, and the plot was great it had me reading this book in one sitting. I also love how each book has a different storyline that’s unique on their own. There are a few twists and turns that I’m sure you will like I know I did…
This story started when Melissa meets a younger man named Skull in a bar. She fought his advances until she caved, and he dragged her into his world, and she found that she liked it. Loved the family vibe, how everyone would gather around to protect what was theirs. Then one day he just disappears off the face of the earth. He’d pulled her in claimed her and, now he’s gone. The only explanation for him not coming back is that he’s dead. Pyro thought Melissa was hot and perfect for him, but another brother claimed her, and a brother doesn’t mess with a brother’s woman. He steps up when she needs someone beside her. Held her when she needed a friend. That his brother was dead was something he’d help her accept. And once she accepts his death Pyro will move in and claim her for his own, we all hope. I just love this series and can’t wait to see what Ms. Mellett has in-stored for us.

Skull, Melissa, Pyro…this seems like it could be one type of story but it turns out to be something else entirely! Some people, in real life and in stories are in love with the IDEA of being in love. I get that feeling a little in the book. But then there’s the “fate worse than death” part. You can’t imagine what could possibly be worse…until you either live it or you read it. Mellett hits it pretty head on.
Skull is the character that we were introduced in book 1as a prospect for the club. He earns his patch and becomes an official member. Pyro is a member who has been in the club for many years. Melissa is Skull’s ol’ lady. She is nervous and describes herself as boring and unadventurous. Being with and around the club members changes Melissa.
I loved this story. The unknown made me keep turning the pages while holding my breath! The characters made me keep turning the pages while hoping for the best. The ending had me jumping up and down and wanting to high five the characters. It also has me wanting the next book because EVERYONE has a story!
I recommend this story if it is read in order. I also would be interested in reading other works by this author.

This book was awesome! I’ve read every book in this series so far and they just keep getting better and better. This author has a way of making me feel like I am right in the middle of the story and I gobbled the story up as fast as I could. The characters are great and I found myself rooting for them and I wanted them to have their happily ever after. If you’re looking for an MC romance with alot of action this book is a perfect pick! I am looking forward to reading more by this author! Happy Reading!

Devil’s Dilemma is the fourth book in Manda Mellett’s Satan’s Devils MC Colorado Chapter series that is the spin-off of her original Satan’s Devils MC series. It is an absolutely smashing addition to the series and it lives us to the expectations that one has after reading ALL of Manda’s MC books! You can read it as a standalone BUT I recommend you to read them in order as you keep meeting the characters again and again from one book to another and you do want to get the connections and it helps to know their backstories! The writer takes us on one heck of a ride with Melissa and Pyro and at times the turns and twists leave you breathless and going ‘oh my god, how is that possible!!’ I love the strength of a woman that Melissa has in bounds as the ride she will be on is not for fainthearted! I cannot share with you the twists and turns but I can promise you that you will not regret the time you will spend with the Colorado Chapter and Melissa and Pyro especially! The story is filled with pain and heartache and love and hope and it tells us the great story of how the lasting relationships are built on friendships. It was also great to learn more about the Las Vegas Chapter and I hope that Manda will give us another spin-off series! I can see some goodness coming our way (wink, wink) …

Devil’s Due is the third book in the Satan’s Devils: Colorado Chapter series by author Manda Mellett. This series just keeps getting better and better. It sucks you in and will not let go until the very end. The characters give you all the feels. From the hero becoming a Nomad to the heroine and her trials and tribulations Ms. Mellett drags the reader from the highest highs to the lowest lows. You can’t help falling in love with them. The secondary characters just add to the story. I love how the brothers band together to help the innocent and I can’t deny that I may have fallen in love with this hero. I can’t wait to see who is next for the Colorado saga. Bravo Ms. Mellett and keep the stories coming!

Devil’s Dilemma by Manda Mellett is book four of the Satan’s Devils Colorado Chapter series. This book is full of twists and turns and you won’t want to put it down until you finish it!
Melissa is a completely relatable character. She doesn’t think much of herself because she isn’t someone who fits societies mold of beautiful. Melissa is so strong and has overcome so much but she doesn’t see that just yet. Pyro doesn’t care what society says at all. Pyro is by Melissa’s side during some of the best and worst times in her life and their friendship blooms into a relationship people envy.
This book was enjoyable to read just like the other books in the series. I couldn’t wait to finish it to see how it ended. I recommend this book and the whole series! These are characters you want to know!
