Turning Wheels was the first book by Manda Mellett that I read and I am sooooooo happy that I picked this one up. I loved Sons of Anarchy and this was right up my alley. She had great character development and she made me go through so many emotions through out the book that I cant wait to pick up the next one in the series.
Sophie is a victim of a hit and run that leaves her in a wheelchair, one legged and helpless. She goes through it all with wanting to kill herself. Whos is going to want a cripple as a girlfriend/lover/wife. Her friend Zoe her best friend gets in a world of trouble and Sophie has to make a run for it. She gets the protection of the Satans Devil MC. Will Sophie be in her element or not? How will she get on with her life there? She blames herself for bringing all the bad stuff to the club. With some bullying and determination she finds a way out of her wheelchair thanks to Peg and Wraith.
This book is so action packed that it just keeps you reading and wanting more that I am grateful there are more in the series.

This book was a good one. I have read many books by this author and this one was a good one to spend my weekend reading and made me remember why I like this author so much. Good writing & loveable characters! I will be reading more by her in the future because I can’t get enough of these MC books! Happy Reading!

Whew! Plot was well-developed and definitely an original storyline with tragic circumstances at the beginning. I was definitely hooked from the first chapter. We get to watch our heroine develop and grow. I really enjoyed getting to know Wraith. I loved the way he was with Sophie. I enjoy stories with multiple characters especially if I know I can look forward to their love stories. I will be reading the next books in the series. The author did a great job of bringing some issues forward that are overlooked when it comes to a disabled or handicapped individual. I’m interested to see if this was something she wanted to do with just this story, or if other stories in this series deal with issues or trauma. Overall, great read!

Jumping into this story, I knew I would be in for a wild ride. What really pulled me wanting to reading this story all starts with Sophie. Sophie had been injured, losing a leg below the knee and is a wheel chair. She’s being hunted by her best friend’s ex boyfriend and her saving grace is a biker gang called the Satan’s Devil. My favourite thing about Sophie is she isn’t just the girl next door. She’s got a mouth and isn’t afraid to use it. She struggles with her trauma and tries to overcome it and grow from it too. The helping hand comes from the most unlikely of places, from Wraith. Meeting Wraith, the VP in the gang, he is the walking-talking epitome of a VP biker gang member. His inner thoughts are laughable but when I wasn’t in his head, it felt like I was reading a totally different character. This story felt like a movie, as it is fast pace and full of action, and if your into biker gangs than this would grab your interest.

Book Review: Turning Wheels: Satan’s Devils #1 Author: Manda Mellett Five Stars Manda Mellett is a new to me author, thank goodness for my Kindle Unlimited subscription I get to meet all these new authors and fall in love with their characters and stories. Turning the Wheels is a 1% Motorcycle Club book about the Satan’s Devils and Sophie. Sophie came to them to hide from a man who was trying to hunt her down to torture and kill. Wraith turns into her hero in this story, among other things. There are many twists and turns to this story and to find that Sophie acutally has a few things in common with the men in Satan’s Devils is really cool. The way they come together to help each other is pretty cool. Loved this book and I will be picking up more of them. KLH

Being a die-hard SOA fan, I had to read this one. Sophie went through an immense struggle. Going from leading an independent life to having it shattered in one day and having to learn to be independent all over again takes so much. Who could blame her for having a pity party? The shock of Horse kicking down her front door after he hears her crash trying to get to the front door would be a huge shocker too. I don’t know about anyone else but sexy MC don’t come kicking my door in. I had thought maybe Horse and Sophie were going to hook up but the story comes with a few twists you never quite see coming. Horse gets her to Arizona in the good old USA to hide out with Satan’s Devil’s. He leaves to go do the jobs painting motorcycles that he his hired to do. Wraith, another sexy MC, ends up falling for her and taking her under his wing. The whole club protects her when they see the video of what happened. Those that don’t end up ant food. With the help of Peg, she gains confidence to be independent without the wheelchair. She also begins to fit in with the MC, which surprises all. The characters felt so realistic. You felt the emotions with the characters in the story. If someone died, you felt it., etc. Best MC book series I’ve read.

Turning Wheels (Satan’s Devils MC #1) by Manda Mellett. I love Manda Mellett and this series is going to be just as great as all the others! This book will keep you turning pages all day as fast as you can! Its the story of Sophie who is disabled due to a trying to to escape her abusive boyfriend and she feels like her life is over. She thinks no man will ever want to be with her again. The depression and insecurity is bad. Due to her ex she begins to get protection from the Satan’s Devils, a motorcycle club in Arizona. If this had happened before the accident she would have been all over being around all these bad biker’s but right now she feels insecure. When Wraith is set to watch over Sophie he’s upset because she will stick out like a sore thumb being in a wheelchair but something attracts him to her. He can’t help being almost obsessed with her. Sophie is attracted to Wraith but is too insecure to act on it. Wraith finally figures out a way to make her realize her worth and tries to keep her safe in the process. This is such a good book, emotional and romantic.

Wraith is the VP of the Satan’s Devils. Sophie was crippled by a madman and is in a wheelchair. She thinks no one could want her, but she is so wrong. Wraith fell in love at first sight. For him that’s all it took. Turning Wheels is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC series. Manda Mellett has what it takes to write a compelling MC novel. She keeps her readers attention from the begging of the novel to the end. I definitely recommend this author and novel to anyone who likes reading MC novels.

I absolutely adore this book and this author! Turning Wheels is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC series by Manda Mellett. I love this book for a multitude of reasons. This author really knows how to grab your attention from the very beginning and for me that is HUGE! My attention has to be caught from the get go or else I will stop reading it. This book…I started from beginning to end in a matter of a couple of days. I did not want to put it down! This book follows Sophie who was tragically injured and left in a wheel chair. Then it turns out that someone is after her with a contract to kill her. Wraith is the Satan’s Devils MC Vice President. The MC has been brought in to protect her. What they didn’t realize is there is an undeniable connection that is formed between Wraith and Sophie. Sophie is also left depressed with no self-esteem left. So what does Wraith do? He shows her how much she is worth exactly albeit through a bunch of twists and turns that no one sees coming! I love these two and the sass only a British woman can have! This book does not disappoint and neither do the rest of Manda’s books!

I have been in an MC romance reading mood and Turning Wheels (Stan’s Devils MC, Book 1) by Manda Mellett was the perfect addition to my growing obsession with this trope. If you like a drama with suspense and a romance that leaves you needing a cold shower, you need to read this book. Sophie and Wraith’s story had me on the edge of my seat and stopping a few times for a cool down from the hotness. I don’t want to give too much away, just take my option and go read this book Besides the main characters, the secondary characters had me wanting to know more and looking forward to finding out their stories.

What a ride!!! This book is a grand mixture of fun, action, laughs, heart, tragedy, and steam. This book has so many exciting twists and revelations, I could barely keep my wheels on the road.
Sophie is young, fun, and social. She has a job she mostly enjoys and is living a life in London with her best friend, Zoe, by her side. Zoe is excited to start a new job for an enigmatic billionaire. Zoe soon meets and starts dating the billionaire. As Zoe’s relationship progresses, Sophie feels that Zoe is pulling away until she is gone. Suddenly, Zoe shows up on Sophie’s doorstep asking for help to get away from the abusive billionaire. Wanting to protect her friend, Sophie more than willingly helps out. The billionaire’s desire to keep Zoe shows no mercy.
Sophie is trying to recover her life after the tragedy that has changed it forever. Sophie is sitting in her living room one day trying to decide if she is happy about returning to work when there is suddenly someone banging on her door and ringing the bell. When Sophie falls trying to get to the door, the stranger breaks down her door. A massive mountain of tattooed biker appears in front of her telling Sophie she is in danger. Sophie doesn’t believe the biker until the billionaire’s henchman arrives with a request for her presence.
The biker, Horse, decides that the best way to keep Sophie safe is to take her with him on his yearly trip to the United States. Sophie shockingly finds herself in an outlaw biker resort in Arizona. Sophie lands in tattooed Alpha-male biker heaven but can she stay there knowing that just her presence puts their life in danger? Can Sophie adapt to the biker lifestyle?
Through it all, Sophie discovers that these men and their families are not what she thought they were. Sophie discovers a kindred spirit in Peg, friends in Slick and Viper, and sisters in Carmen, Crystal and Sandy. Will she discover how to love again with Wraith? Her rule of one night only will be tested by Wraith. Can he understand why there can never be more? When her secret location is compromised, will she allow this new family she has found to keep her safe even at the risk of their death?
I laughed, I cried, I was on the edge of my seat. This book has it all!! I am looking forward to the next chapter of this series.
This book is about an outlaw biker group living their lifestyle. There is coarse language, discussions of domestic violence, and an attempted sexual assault. Some readers may be triggered.

Turning Wheels is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC series by Manda Mellett.
I’m already a fan of this author so I was really looking forward to starting a new series. This book did not disappoint! The story had me hooked from the start, Sophie’s story is an emotional one and the author isn’t afraid to tackle difficult issues, although it is done with care, you can feel Sophie’s pain. There are a lot of raw emotions to process, and a few surprises along the way. There is so much love and life throughout this story that the pages just kept turning and I read it in a day. The characters are already well developed and I’m looking forward to getting to know a few more of their stories. A fantastic start to a new series!

Sophie finds out that her best friend, Zoe, is being abused by her boyfriend, Ethan St Johns-Davies. Zoe needs money, and Sophie is more than willing to help after seeing her friend all banged up. Unfortunately for Sophie, Mr. St Johns-Davies is not the type of person that you mess with on a whim. She finds that out the hard way.
Now, Sophie is wheel-chair bound and is in a deep depression regarding her life. But good news comes in an unlikely man who goes by Horse. Zoe has finally escaped the grasp of St Johns-Davies. Horse decides it’s best if Sophie leaves the country for a while, so he takes her to his friends, the Satan’s Devils MC on the outskirts of Tucson, Arizona.
The Devils have decided to house Sophie and protect her. Can they protect her from St. Johns-Davies? What other kinds of threats will come her way?
I am not a fan of motorcycle club books usually, but I was drawn into this story quickly with Horse being the knight in black jeans and a black leather jacket. Sophie’s story is one that many should look to for how to get through those difficult valleys that life can throw at you. Great read!

While this is the book that kick started this series, it wasnt my first book of this series. I started in the middle and when I was thoroughly hooked, I just had to come back and start from the beginning.
I absolutely without a doubt, love this series. And these two, oh you are in for one wild ride (pun intended). If you like bikers, smart mouthed women and men who love fiercely, this is a book for you. It has all you need and more!

Turning Wheels (Satan’s Devils #1) by Manda Mellett was a really good read! I really enjoyed reading this one, because I started with the new generation, and the spin off locations so going back to the first book that started the whole series was great to me. It’s interesting seeing how these “older” characters ran things in their days, and it helped me understand the books I have read better. My only complaint was that this book felt a little slower than the other books I’ve read of hers have. It’s probably because it’s the first book in the series, which I can completely understand, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and can’t wait to dive into more of these!

Turning Wheels was a great 5 star read and book one in the Satan’s Devils MC. Once I started I couldn’t put it down.
Sophie was trying to help her best friend get away from her monster boyfriend and she ended up in a tragic accident that would change her life forever. Now in a wheelchair she finds herself face-to-face with Horse, a man who says he was sent by her best friend to keep her safe. She is once again in danger and Horse is determined to keep her safe. He ends up reaching out to his friends at Satan’s Devils MC.
Wraith is the VP of the club and is immediately drawn to Sophie once he sees her. His protective instincts kick in and he wants to keep her safe. Will the MC be able to keep Sophie safe?
Overall I really enjoyed this read. I really feel like going to the MC really made a huge difference for Sophie, it helped her get her confidence back and feel whole again. All of the secondary characters added a great element to the story. We get action, steamy sex scenes, and so much more. I look forward to reading more from this series. I’m hoping to get Red’s story soon. 1-click and get started today.

Turning Wheels (Satan’s Devils MC #1)by Manda Mellett
5 out of 5 stars
I have read quite a few books written by Ms. Mellett I do not know which one I like the most and her writing just gets better with each book. The characters are well written with strong minds. Her detailed description of the background and people are amazing. The Satan Devils MC are not just a bunch of misfits that come together it is a brotherhood and they look out for their own.
All Sophie did help her best friend escape her abusive boyfriend, and for that she ended up in a wheelchair. But now her nightmare is only beginning because, Ethan wants Sophie as leverage to get his woman back.
Some how Sophie ended up under the protection of the Satan Devils and now she is in outlaw motorcycle club in Arizona. With her newly disability she is scared and vulnerable, and soon I find this isn’t the safest place to hide.
Wraith isn’t looking for love or old lady. But things change when Sophie rolls in. He wanted her from the start but she is so insecure. She doesn’t fit into his world or does she? she thinks she’s undesirable and is scared of taking a man to her bed as though her disability defines who she is. She is so wrong and now Wraith is going to make it his mission.
But with this contract out on her Wraith needs to be the VP and not just a man? Will this Ethan fellow catch Sophie to catch is Ex? Will Sophie go back to her old life? Will she be want to be-able to live a full life?

Okay. I keep changing my favorite read of the year. I’m OBSESSED with this book- Turning Wheels (Satan’s Devils #1) by Manda Mellett. I’m on the way home from visiting family and literally ignored my family in the car because I HAD to read this book. Omg. The characters?! Amazing. I legitimately related to the potty mouth on these guys. A lot of writers throw cursing in books that doesn’t seem authentic but- it’s perfect. The storyline was heavy but so amazingly done! Don’t EVEN get me started on the sexy parts. Have you seen that GIF of Santana from Glee fanning herself? Picture that nearly the entire time I read this book! Throughout the entire story I have legitimately laughed, cried, and swooned! This is a definite must read for anyone interested in reading MC!

I was new to Manda Mellet when I picked up this book. I read the description and thought it sounded super interesting given one of the main characters was in a wheelchair and it took place in a motorcycle club ?! And involved bikers from the UK ? Wait, that exists ? How does that work ?! Sure, I’m all in for this one! Once I started reading I quickly realized how much more this book contained then I had originally thought. It was longer than most books in this genre, I think, but I wasn’t really familiar with the genre itself. I devoured every last page and it definitely didn’t feel overlong as I neared the end I actually found myself wishing there was more. I needed more Wraith and Sophie and more of the rest of the MC. The characters felt like real people, like they could just walk off the page. You could really feel Sophie’s angst, and struggles, Wraith, Horse, Peg, and the rest of the guys love for her. Their love for the MC went deep. They were wholly prepared to defend her against the evil, vicious man that was Ethan St John-Davies. Not to mention plenty of smut and sexyness to keep things rolling. I would definitely give this book a try if this type of book is your thing or even if it’s not there were many layers to this book that just might pull you in. I, for one, am glad it’s part of a series because I definitely need more. Also, even though I didn’t need to use it the author includes a super helpful glossary at the back of the book that may explain some of the things mentioned in the book if you have any questions as to what’s what while reading.

It has been quite a long time since I read a MC book, and this book was fabulous. I was totally sucked in from the beginning to the end. My heart really went out to Sophie and the story of why she ended up with a horrifying physical injury. You wonder what kind of monster would intentionally try and harm another human being, I could never imagine. Then we have Wraith, what can I say but wow holy hotness. I believe Sophie really took him by storm. Sophie needed protection the most as someone is out to get her. Horse and Cut (other characters) are there to rescue Sophie from a threat and they take her a MC in Arizona where she meets the gang including Wraith. One of my favorite characters as well in the story is Peg, just made me laugh and also a protector. I believe Wraith and Sophie together is pure hotness. If you like a MC story with mystery and pure hot moments, this book is definitely for you. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Turning Wheels: Satan’s Devils MC #1 By Manda Mellett
This is another great story by an exceptional author. I have loved every single book I have ever picked up by Manda Mellett and this one is no different. Sophie was just trying to help out her friend when she ended up hurt and on the wrong side of one man’s anger. That’s when the Satan’s Devils are asked to help protect her. Wraith sees something in Sophie that she can’t see in herself. This book is full of action, twists and turns, romance, friendship, healing and love. I could not put this book down until I read every last page, needing to know what was going to happen. This author has a way of pulling you into the story and making you feel a connection with these characters. I became invested in the characters and their story. I highly recommend this book. Definitely a five star read.

Turning Wheels is the first book in the Satan’s Devils MC series by Manda Mellett. I first discovered Manda Mellett at the end of the Satan’s Devils series and have read all the other spin-offs that have come from it but although I’ve owned the box sets for a while still hadn’t gone back to see how it all began. Now I’ve finally gone back to the beginning to see what I missed and I’m cursing myself for not doing it sooner. I absolutely loved Sophie and Wraith’s story. Having read sone of the spin-offs where Wraith and Sophie are older I had to keep reminding myself that they are much younger in this story. Manda Mellett blows me away every time I read one of her books. The characters are so well written and we get to see deep inside the heads of out characters and in this book I could have cried for Sophie so many times. She’s had a very tough time of it and my heart just melts for how Wraith (and most of the other guys in the MC) take this English woman to their hearts. I have to say that I also laughed so much when she was teaching them some British sayings. As a Brit, I just take these sayings for granted and don’t realise how strange they are to others. Manda Mellett is not shy to tackling a difficult issue and in this book Sophie is in a wheelchair and feels like she’s not a real woman anymore. Why would anyone want a cripple like her. I love how Manda Mellett treated this storyline and made Sophie feel sexy and desirable again. I now need to get on with reading the others in this series that I’ve missed. 100% recommend this book and anything written by Manda Mellett. I just can’t praise her enough.

Wow what a book. This isn’t the first book I have read by Manda Mellett but as with previous ones I have really enjoyed it. I love the whole MC culture and mixed with romance it’s a perfect combination.
What I found really good about this book is it is full of emotion. Some parts are hard to read such as Sophie’s feelings about being an amputee. That was handled with such care and though that you could really imagine and feel how scared and vulnerable she was at times and how hopeless she felt. With dangers lurking around every corner she feels so out of control of her life and vulnerable.
The relationship between her and Wraith is one of passion and respect. Wraith has is fiercely protective of her and won’t allow anyone to harm her however some things are beyond her control. He tries so hard to help Sophie see her worth and to make her believe that his feelings are true. You can feel his frustration when she doubts herself and him.
This book is a wild ride as two people from 2 very different backgrounds get thrown together and somehow it works. With the help of the other brothers in the MC Sophie starts to regain herself again which only makes Wraith love her all the more.

I enjoyed this story. It is a wonderful introduction into the Satan’s Devils. I have read many others of this series but not this one. This one answered questions to things I have acquired from the others in the series. I LOvE the characters! That Sophie is one courageous lady. What she went through and survived?!? Wow! I loved when she was talking her “British” words to the boys. Fun! Wraith fell and fell hard. I admire him for not choosing a Sweet butt ever since he met Sophie. It is interesting seeing him as a single because I have only ever known him as married with kids. Plus I liked seeing his relationship with Red (from Vegas chapter) and how long they have known each other.
I enjoyed seeing the Devils in their earlier days. Before they all found their women. I am looking forward to Drummers book next.

Turning Wheels by Manda Mellett is the first book in the Satan’s Devils collection. Sophie had an accident that leaves her in a wheel chair. She tries to do the right thing by helping her friend get out of an abusive relationship, but in turn makes herself the new target. With a hit out on her head, she seeks safety anywhere she can. A motorcycle club takes her in with hopes of protecting her. Sophie feels vulnerable, depressed, and scared. After the accident, she lost all self-esteem.
Wraith is in the biker gang helping to protect Sophie, and wants to help her gain her self-esteem so she can see herself the way he sees her.
Can Sophie get past her disability? Can the biker gang keep her safe when troubles arise on the inside?
Definitely a story that keeps you turning pages well into the night. Excited for the next one!

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.
