There’s only one King in the city that never sleeps, and he rules his kingdom with an iron fist. Devil’s Creed President, Banner St. James, knows it’s the only way to ensure peace between the borough’s founding mafia families while staying off the ATF’s radar. But when their enemies start targeting the locals and threatening to disrupt the truce, the Italians make Banner an offer he can’t refuse.
Like all the Angelini women before her, Sophia Angelini must sacrifice her dreams to become the perfect mafia wife. Unaccustomed to her brother’s cruelty, she begs him not to give her to the most dangerous monster in the city. But it’s too late, and the deal is sealed when Banner St. James puts a ring on her finger, claiming she’s now his property and it’s time to go home.
Banner has no idea what he’s supposed to do with a wife that’s barely legal, but when his niece is dropped off on his doorstep, he learns there’s more to Sophia St. James than he realized. When his girls are put in the crosshairs, he knows there’s more at stake than money and power, and he’ll take out the devil himself if it means keeping them safe.
Fantastic, I’m so ready for book 2, Ghosts story. I absolutely loved Banner and Sophia’s story ❤️❤️❤️ He stole her from her fiancé and family and married her. Strange as it is they feel their connection and begin their lives together as a real couple. Plenty of drama and chaos involved. It was thoroughly enjoyable reading Banner’s novel. 100% recommend this book to everyone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ you will not be disappointed 😎
When I pick up a novella, I usually know exactly what I’m getting into: fast-paced, compact, and sometimes a little rushed. But this one genuinely surprised me. Yes, it’s short, but it never felt hurried or underdeveloped. The story flows naturally, the plot is engaging, and the relationship between Banner and Sophia is handled far better than I expected for this format.
The political tension between MC and mafia, the forced marriage trope, and the power imbalance could have felt shallow in a novella — but instead, they were woven together in a way that felt solid and believable. Banner and Sophia’s dynamic evolves in a way that makes sense, and both characters feel fully formed despite the limited page count.
I especially appreciated how rich the story felt overall. The emotions, the stakes, and the character growth all landed for me, which isn’t always the case with shorter reads. The only real downside is that I wanted more — more pages, more time with these characters, more of this world. But honestly, that’s only because I enjoyed it so much.
This novella did exactly what it should do: hook me into the universe and make me want to keep reading. I’m definitely moving straight on to Ghost.
A fast-paced, well-crafted MC novella with depth, tension, and strong character work — absolutely worth the read.
LOVED IT!!! This is a new author for me and I'm really glad I had a chance to read this book. This is Banner and Sophia's story. He's the President of the Devils Creed MC and Sophia is now his new bride, thanks to the offer her brother made Banner. What does that mean exactly? Well, you'll have to read their story to find out. I really don't like giving too much of the story away. I can tell you that the characters are written well. They've been well thought out in my opinion and I'm glad the story isn't solely based on just these two. And speaking of the story, I enjoyed it. It was fast-paced and easy to read. The author had me engrossed in the story from page one. I highly recommend the author as well as the book. I'm really looking forward to reading more in this series.

When the enemy comes threatening his impire. He makes a decisio. Take Sophia as a wife. Both life with change. She see him for the man he is not the President of his club.

My sweet Mouse girl yes ma’am loved you! I can’t NOT wait until Ghost gets his book and we find out who the jerk in the suit is 🤪.. Um Miss Rebel love you already lol can’t wait to read more from you!
3.5 Well written MC story, but I think it was too short. There was so much going on and I would have loved for the bad guys storyline to have been expanded more. There were also some little loose ends I would have loved to see tifued up in the epiloge. The love story was great - love an MMC whose brutal to everyone but his lady. Heaps of well introduced side characters and I'll definitely check out the next book.
This is the Debut book of the Devils Creed MC series! The author had my attention from the beginning to The End. I enjoyed that the storyline didn't revolve around just Banner and Sophia! This story includes the Bravata, Mafia, Flower shop, Wedding, Kidnapping, and a HEA. Can't wait to continue reading the series!
Really amazing read highly recommended it is a page turner that tells the story of how Banner ended up with Sophia as his wife and how they book gives you so many different emotions and lots of twist and turns with drama and much more things such as lust, hate, greed and revenge. Love how Sophia doesn't back down and how Banner is so Alpha male.
Banner married a mafia girl as part of a deal, no realizing she would become his world. She was terrified when she found out she was being forced to marry the "butcher". He was sooo good to her, it was awesome. I can't wait for Ghost's book. I'm hooked on Rebel Outlaw!
Highly recommend!! Great start with this new MC series. Sophia wound up with the monster, lol, Banner, only he is to the ones that deserve it.
The story flows well and keeps you turning the pages to see what happens next. Many different characters involved and looking forward to reading more of this MC.
The story of how Banner and Sophia find themselves in a romantic relationship is stellar. This book may be a novella but the story itself is rich and rings true. The characters are completely fleshed out and you will find yourself falling in love with the book.
Love Alphaholes? Love MC stories? You are going to want to read this book!!! I could NOT put it down! The characters suck you in right from the start & keep you enthralled the entire time! I can't wait to read more of the Devils Creed MC!! ❤️🔥
This jumps so much it's hard to keep up before your somewhere else in the story it's like there's things that should be in the book are missing and other things are just put in for word count it left me frustrated
I loved this story! She's a new to me author. This is Banner & Sophia's story & it was a great one! There's a lot going on behind the scenes & I loved it! The spice was on point & I can't wait to read more from her!
Enjoyed the beginnings of a good MC series. The characters are interesting and I love how the FMC turned out to be very strong instead of meek as she was made out to be in the beginning. But her nickname suits her that Banner gave her.
The beginning was a little confusing, but as soon as Mouse, came into the story, it all flowed well. This novella was a great intro to the series. The characters were well developed, and the book was hard to put down. Looking forward yo the next book!
This was much sweeter than I was expecting. The Butcher brings to mind a nasty, savage person, who is feared. Sophia is innocence personified. And has been brought up to be obedient. It’s lovely sharing their journey.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. It’s fast paced. Lots of twist and turns you won’t see coming. Banner is president, and he decided he wanted Sophie. Best thing he ever did. I highly recommend this
This is a sweet medium paced book full of nonstop action, love, hate,chaos and drama. Banner and Sophia are a a great couple together. Sophia is lovable and can easily adapt to any situation and Banner, well he is an Alpha male nothing more to say about him
I loved how quickly Banner and Sophia went from not knowing each other to being the love of each others lives. This is fast paced novella and great into the club. I can't wait to see more of the and the Devil's Creed MC.
What a ride , Banner was a fast paced story which had action, hotness, and alpha male vibes all the way. I enjoyed how it kept me on my toes and the twist thru out the book was great.
This book is amazing. I love how this new series starts. Just buy this first book. I can tell this series will be a hit. I am excited to read the next book.
A fast pace good read. This book is quick read. The action starts right away. I love the characters and the storyline. It also has some very sweet romantic moments.
The book was good but a little rushed. Wish more depth was their it had the potential and just fell short because the characters were not developed enough.
