Figured my major screw-up was losing Joy, but it was losing that precious secret she cradled in her belly. Now she's back, and I'll guard her and my little dude 'til my last wicked beat.
Despite being much older than Joy, I was damn sure we were meant to ride together. Then, she vanished, leaving me with just a quick note and a shattered heart.
Didn't sit right, but I respected her call. Spent years trying to roll on, but it was like cruisin’ on a flat tire.
Now, six years later, she's back, weavin' apologies and cryin’ a river of sorrow. Says she's dodgin’ a high-and-mighty madman and his watchdogs.
I ain't fully buyin’ her story, but I can't slam the door on her plea. Truth is, Joy's still locked tight in my heart…
So, I saddle up to be the protector she needs.
And when I uncover her most guarded secret, I swear never to let her slip from my grasp again.

MMC/FMC- Dutch and Joy POV- 1st person dual Genre- MC Romance Lite Heat- 🌋🌋🌋 they do the thing and name the parts Series? Y Safety? No cheating or s. violence, but trafficking is attempted and threatened. Other triggers include violence, explicit erotic content, language. HEA? the couple got a nice HEA, even though there is a continuing arc for the series. Tropes- Second Chance, Secret Baby, Adorable Moppet, Ebil Empire. What I liked- random birthday cake! Yay! What I didn’t- I’m not eating random birthday cake right now. Thoughts- the book was entertaining, although it did stretch the suspension of disbelief. The good guys were likable. The bad guys, especially the first one, might as well have been twirling big moustaches. The MMC bonded nicely with his son, but he seemed to have no anger or frustration with the fact that he had missed so much of the child’s life. The child descriptions of grown up events were hilarious. I enjoyed the book anyway, because I don’t require that all of my reading be married to reality.

This is the 3rd book in the Savage Legion MC series featuring the dual P.O.V steamy age-gap secret baby second chance romance between Dutch and Joy. Dutch thought that Joy was his ride or die that they loved each other until the day Joy vanished leaving him with just a note and a broken heart. It never made sense to Dutch but he respected her call and he spent years trying to pick up the pieces now it's 6yrs later and she's back. Joy is apologizing and crying telling Dutch that she's hiding from a completely high and mighty madman and his watchdogs. Dutch is on the fence when it comes to Joy's story but he can't turn his back on her since she owns his heart so he prepares to be the protector that she needs. However when Dutch finally uncovers her most guarded secret and for good reason he swears that Joy will never slip through his fingers again. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read this dual P.O.V steamy, age-gap, secret baby, second chance romance to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book.

The last thing Dutch expected was to be at a ball with a friend and spot the woman who walked out on him six years ago and broke his heart. Joy was just as surprised having just returned to town, after running for her life from a sadistic boss. She had to leave the life and the man she loved. Dutch and Joy were working towards a life together, it was cut short by her boss and all she could do was leave him a text message. But what came from their reconnection was the reality they neither one of them stopped loving each other. But,Joy had a secret and he was the splitting image of his father, Chase was the son and dream he never thought he'd never have. But, once Dutch found out that the man who made her run was the father of the brothers associated with the trafficking ring their club was trying dismantled and he part of it himself he knew he'd do whatever it took to keep his family safe. That was the beginning of their life and journey together which turned out to be a Happily Ever After!!😍😍
Dutch and Joy had quite the past, it sucks it was ruined by assholes. I didn't fault Joy for making the choice she did, she was trying to protect Dutch, but I also wonder how things would have gone had she been able to tell him for real what made her run.
I liked that they got their second chance and things weren't mired down in bitterness and regret. Joy spilled all and Dutch realized their present threat was around back then too. They were doing a great job of getting everyone safe, when it all went to hell quickly. Due to Dutch's thinking earlier and Joy agreeing they were able to take action right away and get everyone back home and safe. The bonus came to taking down more of the Syndicate too. It'd be nice to see them all wiped out.
Now Dutch and Joy just need to worry about their little family and living their HEA.
The pursuit of the Hendersons and syndicate trafficking ring is at the forefront of the MC and none more do when Dutch's woman is involved. Joy and Dutch are a great couple, but she is forced to leave when her boss makes threats. Six years later she returns and their meeting has more to reveal than expected. Tiffany's a mixed bag and takes while to warm to..mouthy, belligerent, fired, determined and her actions towards danger is hostile and unsafe. Joy also ignores the seriousness at times and believes she is right, is rash and realises too late thus suffers the consequences. Dutch is ever woman's hero and perfect man, inside and out, despite his less than legal activities.

Dutch lost his Joy six years ago, he did not know why she left but he cannot bring himself to delete the voicemail she left on his phone. He sees her at an event and thinks his eyes are playing tricks on him. She asked to come see him and explain. Can he let her back in after how much she hurt him? As she tells her story, it might parallel the trouble the MC is having with the human trafficking ring.
There is no way he can leave her to fend for herself, and now that he knows she left with more surprises, no one is going to touch his family.
I suggest reading the first books in the series before this one as there is an overarching story line. I just loved their story, Dutch is just so sweet.

Dutch's Surprise Baby is the third book in the Savage Legion MC series. The storyline has drama, suspense, steamy romance, humor, and action. The characters from the previous books, even the evil ones, are still relatable, believable, and engaging.
The intensity of the struggle between the Savage Legion MC and The Syndicate grows with each book. It will come to a head soon, and finding out more about the mysterious Pope will be interesting. Part of his identity is revealed in this book, but there is more to unveil. I can hardly wait for the next book in the series Rig's Ward!.

Definitely. A Must Read book and series.
This one was just OK. Not great, but not horrible. I did not love Joy. Their issues wrapped up so quickly about her leaving and her having his child. She said sorry he said OK let’s get married. And then, of course her and her sister did the predictable stupid women thing that I hate in these kind of books. Her sister refused protection, because of course she felt like she wasn’t in danger, and then Joy left the clubhouse to go to her sisters when she knew she was in danger and didn’t bother telling another person. And what happened? Surprisingly they got kidnapped!!! it’s just hard to feel invested in this couple because I just did not feel that connection.

A great story. Joy makes a monumental choice to leave Dutch when her boss tries to blackmail her to spy on the MC's. She sends a dear john message and disappears. She doesn't return until she hears that her ex-boss has died. She returns with a child and contacts Dutch. Dutch still has feelings and he takes it slow with her. They will be faced with danger as Joy is still being targeted. This book is full of action, emotions and has a happy ending. I enjoyed reading this book.

The Hell Hounds and the Syndicate continue to raise Havoc with the Savage Legion MC. Dutch and Joy were together at one time and then Joy left and broke Dutch’s heart. I don’t think he ever really got over her. But when she rides back into town with a few secrets of her own, Dutch will do anything to protect those he loves.
Will Dutch and Joy be able to rekindle what they once had? What havoc is the Syndicate up to now? Twists and turns, mystery, and lots of passion!

A young couple who had things going their way until Joy is blackmailed by her boss which we find out is in with some very bad people. After they threatened Dutch’s life, as well, Joy goes on the run. She stays gone for six years until she hears that her former boss is dead and feels its now safe to come home with a little boy in tow.
There is so much at play in this book with the syndicate running a human trafficking ring among other things and the club is trying everything in their power to keep safe the people they love. Dutch and Joy earned their HEA.

The story drags when the main characters don’t have much conflict. That’s what happened once Dutch and Joy found their way back to each other. And the story got mushy and boring. It was like reading a happily ever after tale over and over again, and I was only at 60% completed in the book. Granted the “Syndicate” was the major conflict, and gave the story an interesting turn, I was almost turned off with the main characters being so lovey dovey all the time.
This one sees the on going battle between the Syndicate and Savage Legion. This is proof that the Syndicate has been around longer than first thought. This is Dutch and Joy’s story. Joy ran away from Dutch 6 years ago as the Syndicate threatened both him and the Legion. When the man that wanted her died she came back and the drama started. Every time the Legion stops one of the Syndicate’s farms another pops up. Dutch and Joy get their HEA but only after much drama.
The author has given us a very heart pounding and throbbing story that pulls you into Joy and Dutch and his club brothers. The cover, the characters and everything in between is HOT, HOT, HOT. 💥🔥❤️ The story will keep you turning the pages to see what will end up happening after Joy breaks Dutch's heart and has a secret. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.

Dutch & Joy's story is my favorite thus far. Dutch might be a big, tatted up biker, but he's kind, considerate, and loving. Joy is a smart female protagonist who gets a raw deal. The storyline is intriguing and has you turning page after page to know the outcome. The arc with the Hell Hounds and the Syndicate continues and comes to a surprising crescendo.

Dutch thought that he had lost his chance with Joy when she left and took his heart with him. Now she has returned with mad men on her tail and withholding a secret. When the truth comes out will Dutch and Joy find their way back to each other and rekindle the love they once had.

This happens to be the third book in the Savage Legion MC, and this is the story of Dutch & Joy. Really enjoyed this one because it has so many different twists and turns throw in age gap and a little surprise bundle it makes for an amazing read. Joy left with something of Dutch's when she just left a note that gave no real reason why she left but six years later she is back for protect with a small surprise, but will that help after ghosting someone she claims to love?
I don't know how I feel about this book. Dutch got dumped by a phone message after Joy his ride or die girlfriend gets threatened by her boss and to save him she disappeared. Only to return 6yrs later thinking everything is OK only to now need his help as it's not only her life on the line. Liked the possessiveness that Dutch showed to Joy even after what she put him through, but her being so nieve to the dangers around her gets abit annoying.
I really liked Joy and Dutch’s book. Chase was adorable, and I loved the ending. I felt bad for joy having to be on the run for 6 years, but the fact that they loved each other the whole time was amazing!
“I never dared to dream of a real happily ever after because of all the running. Being with you feels like finally getting everything I ever wanted all wrapped up in one sexy, tattooed package.”
I really enjoyed Dutch and Joy's story. I was a bit surprised at Dutch. In the previous books I got a whole different vibe from him and he turned out to be quite a bit of a bad ass. I was a bit surprised at how easily Dutch forgave her for leaving him. I know the circumstances were beyond her control but thats why I thought he would be mad that she didn't come to him before taking off. Overall a great read.
Great read once again, i really Love this series. Dutch and Joy were in Love, but when the syndicate threatens Joy,s life she runs. Dutch is devestated but in 6 years she is back with Good News. I really enjoyed meeting Joy,s sister Tiffney and what a spitfire. I dont want to say anything else, no spoilers. Just read the series you wont be disappointed.
The author has given us a fast-paced older man/younger woman story that pulls us into the lives of Dutch, Joy and her son, Chase. The story keeps us turning the pages with secrets, danger, second chances and steam.
