Stone

Reckless Souls MC #12

by K.B. Winters

When your best friend is your biggest rival—Who can you trust?

Five years ago, I blew out of Opey like a bat outta hell with blood on my hands. Now, I’m back to claim my rightful spot in the club and win over the one person I never should have left.
Ivy.
But Ivy’s moved on in my absence. She’s fallen into the arms of my best friend, Grayson, and they’re building a life together. It’s messed up, having to square off against a brother just to get back what used to be mine.
Just as I’m trying to figure things out with Ivy, an enemy from my violent past comes gunning for me, looking to settle the score. They’re out for blood, and not just mine.
Every part of my life is under threat, especially the fragile truce I’m trying to build with Grayson, and my second shot with Ivy.
This is no time for playing it safe. Everything’s on the line—my future with Ivy, my brotherhood with Grayson, and hell, my very existence. I’m not just here to reclaim my old life; I’m here to start the one I always wanted.
At the head of the club.
And nothing’s going to stop me this time.

If you love Yellowstone and Sons of Anarchy, then you'll be captivated by the gritty realism and intense brotherhood dynamics in Stone, the final book in the Reckless Souls Series.

Fantastic Ending to This Series

I am so sad to say that this is the final book in the Reckless Souls MC series and every one of them are fantastic. Stone and Ivy have been best friends forever and then one-night changes everything and Stone is exiled to another club for five years.

Now Stone is back but not everything is as he was expecting especially when his two best friends are giving him the cold shoulder. Stone is learning from his dad what it takes to be Prez of this club but his past is coming back to haunt him. Not only that he wants Ivy more than he ever has.

This book was packed full of action, steam and love. It was great watching everything come together. Stone and Ivy’s story was heartwarming…in a biker kind of way!!! I loved every minute of it.

Stone and Ivy❣️

Stone left his home of Opey, Texas abruptly one night after a fight went wrong😢 Ivy is his best friend and he’s unable to say goodbye or even stay in touch. Five years down the road, his father calls Ace to say it’s time to come home🏠 Relieved and excited to go home, things aren’t quite as he left them and soon things start to happen putting Ivy in danger and changing the relationship between not only Ivy and himself but also Gray, Ivy’s old man😳

An exciting and steamy read and I loved how it all turned out in the end😍 I received an advanced copy via Booksprout and voluntarily leave my honest review❤️‍🩹

WOW, LOVED THE HEAT AND EXCITEMENT WITH THE PULSING ENERGY THE STONE & IVY PUT OUT!!!💙💙💙

Stone & Ivy are a magnificent couple!! They have taken over and made the Reckless Souls their own!! I'm hoping that K.B. Winters will continue on with the Reckless Souls next generation!! I always wondered why Stone was quiet in other books and it was definitely worth the wait!!
Inside this book there is mystery, sexy scenes, camaraderie, renewed friendships, passion, attempted attacks, with plenty of twist and turns!!

It’s hard to accept that this is the end of the series. I have followed the RSMC through various life-threatening scenarios and complex challenges. I fell in love with this brotherhood, and am crossing my fingers that this ending leads to a new beginning.

The story held my attention and was a pleasure to read. Connecting with these characters was effortless, and I found myself completely absorbed in their journey. Ivy and Stone’s connection is rooted in friendship, but it goes much deeper than that. Their ties, unfortunately, are abruptly severed when he mysteriously vanishes from town. Stone is RSMC Opey royalty, and that’s the only thing that saves him after things go wrong. I loved how the guys in the Angel Harbor California chapter became his new home.

My heart broke for Ivy as she tried to find her way in her new reality without Stone. The tensions ran high as Stone made his comeback, straining relationships with Gray and Ivy. However, when a rival of the club puts Ivy and Sage at risk, the strength of their brotherhood outweighs their frustrations.

I’ve been hooked and thoroughly entertained by this series, and it’s a shame to see its conclusion. I recommend exploring this author’s collection of entertaining works, as they will keep you flipping pages. This well-crafted story was a breeze to read, and the happily ever after endings kept me satisfied. I feel fortunate to have received a complimentary copy of this story, happily leave my review, and look forward to her next creative venture.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "STONE" what an awesome way to end this phenominal series so much action, intrigue, suspense, angst, danger, emotional turmoil, steam, rivals, twists that's makes for an addicting journey to the end.
Stone's biggest Rival was his BF Grayson making it hard for him to trust anyone after a horrible fight 5 years ago he left Opey with blood on his hands leaving his BF Ivy no goodbyes she's moved on now building a life with Grayson.
Stone's returns to find Ivy & Grayson are together he wants her back but an old violent enemy returns while he's working on that ready to settle a score with Stone his life is under a threat as well him trying to mend things with Grayson & hopefully get a second chance with Ivy.
Stone being back had caused trouble straining the relationship between Ivy & Grayson but when a rival shows up putting Ivy & Sage in grave danger the club comes together their as a Brotherhood would
outweighing all the frustrations between everyone.
I definitely recommend to get this riviting journey Ivy & Stone takes you on with Grayson, their chemistry can't be denied with the rival there presenting problems will they get their HEA, will the club stand behind them when mostly needed, you absolutely can't miss this amazing ending to this phenominal series.
EXCELLENT ENDING TO THIS FANTASTIC RECKLESS SOULS MC SERIES 🖤 🖤 🖤 🖤 🖤

This is the 12th book in the Reckless Souls MC series featuring the fantastic conclusion to this AMAZING series. We get Stone and Ivy's page-turning second chance, best-friends to lovers romance. Stone and Ivy are best-friends who have been close for a really long time until one-night changed everything. Stone is exiled to another club and he's gone for 5yrs before he comes back looking to claim what's his which includes Ivy. However Ivy hasn't stayed frozen in time in Stone's absence she's moved on with of all people Stone's best-friend Grayson. Now Stone has to go up against his brother to fight to get Ivy back. Until an enemy with a score to settle from his past comes searching for him and they're out for blood and not just his. I don't want to say anymore and ruin it for anyone else with spoilers. You really need to read the fantastic conclusion to this AMAZING series to see what happens. I would recommend reading this book.

We see the younger generation coming to the fore..Stone had been sent aw at, like thief in the night, to save and protect him following the death of the man he fought with. Life as he knew it changed and for five years lived without communication in an associated club in California. Fast forward and he is now called home, but life is not the same and his best friend Grey is now with Ivy, and the welcome mat is not being rolled out.
Lots to think about, lots to deal with and personal issues tend to overshadow business. Is Stone truly mature and ready to take over the presidency, or does his feelings rule his heart over his head. Time will tell and the road is bumpy before he manages to ride it safely.

Last book of the series and that makes me sad. Stone is all grown up! The story starts with him being sent from his family and then coming back years later. He logically knows things have gone on while he was away, but seeing it is a different story. Coming back and finding his best friends now in a relationship together is very different. Seeing Gray and Ivy together is not easy. I love how honest he is with Gray. Ivy has a hard time being honest with herself about her feelings. There is drama with another MC because of the past that has Stone making bad choices. Really sweet epilogue bringing friends together and some new beginnings.

Trying to find your place again

Stone is the twelfth book in the Reckless Souls MC series. The story is about Ivy and Stone. It has been five years since Stone left town and Ivy behind. Now he is back to reclaim both his place in the MC and also Ivy. But what he finds is not what he expected, as Ivy is with another man, and it is one that was close to Stone before. Things will get even more complicated as danger is coming for Stone and those closest to him. This is a fast-paced, thrill-ride, MC romance between best friends who have definitely grown up.
I really enjoyed this story and am sad that it will be the last in the series. But what a way to end it, as it is an emotional and thrilling read from start to finish.

[Danee · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the last part of the Reckless Souls MC series. This was a beautiful story with some emotion. Stone returns after a few years and encounters Ivy, whom he left all those years. During the time that Stone was gone, he regretted it and now wants her back. But that's not so easy because Ivy has finally picked up and moved on after he left her. he tries everything but it's not easy, she doesn't really want to cooperate and an old enemy has shown up. Can he defeat his enemy and protect Ivy and still get a second one together?

STONE is finally going home but not everyone is overjoyed at his return. Emotions run high when Stone’s best friends greet him with mixed feelings. Will the bonds they previously formed be strong enough to bend but not break? And when trouble from Stone’s past rears its ugly head, and the people he cares about are threatened and hurt, what path will he ultimately take? The undeniable chemistry between Stone and Ivy and the potential danger from outside the MC, all make for an exciting and engaging tale, perfect for the last book in the series.

[Wendy Livingstone · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the 12th book in this amazing series, and this is Stone and Ivy’s story.
This is a well written story which is an easy to read, action packed story, with friendships, determination, humor, witty banter, emotions, trusts, danger, suspense, intrigue, second chances, regrets, undeniable chemistry, rivals, romance, and love, which leads to an entertaining, unpredictable, and steamy addictive page turner.

Ivy and Stone were best friends years ago, until he had to disappear for a while. Now he is back in town, and Ivy has a boyfriend. Will things change? Stone is going to be taking over the Reckless Bastards MC, following his father's footsteps, but what dangers might this bring? Or what dangers haunt him from his past? I loved Ivy and Stone's story, the attraction/steam between them, the humour, the dangers, angst and twists of their story.

Stone

This last story in the series is a good way to wrap up the Hardtail Ranch MC series. Stone returns from exile in CA and has a pretty big “attitude” hanging about since 5 years separated from the Texas club and family leaves him feeling lost and bummed. Ivy moved on and took a substitute (her heart wasn’t in it) and was pissed that her BFF wasn’t able to communicate with her yet no one else was either. Fortunately for both of these 2 lost BFFs they worked out their differences and joined together in the end.

Stone is book 12 and the final book in the Reckless Souls Series written by the talented author KB Winters. This story line is a true second chance romance with all of the feels and heartache you'd expect plus the found family and sizzling chemistry romance. Stone & Ivy, another outstanding
read by this author!

This was a slow go for me. I knew going in it would be hard because I don't like cheating and there was a smidge to me but to many none. However, this story was worth it and a nice homecoming for stone. It was nice to read about old friends and felt comfy to come home to the ranch. Escaping things in your past does not always work, but I'm glad it wasn't to late for stone and ivy. This is my honest review for a book I volunteered to read.

[Leanne ~ Tales From The Heart · Rating 5 out of 5]

Five years ago Stone's family sent him away in hiding due to a killing.
Now he's back and his friends are confused and angry, there had been no communication.
His best friends Gray and Ivy had hooked up. Ivy will always have a connection with Stone and Gray is furious....choose!!!
You know there is so much chemistry between Ivy and Stone, how can she choose without hurting one of them?
This story had all the feels, the action and the romance. So many things going on I loved it.

I have to admit I am sad that this is the last book of the series! I loved every book! But what a great story to wrap up with Stone and Ivy, who are meant to be together. A great couple who find their way back to each other. Hoping to see another series soon as I really enjoy the books from this author.

Stone left more than troubles behind when he left 5 years ago, he left Ivy. Now he's back and ready to claim his place in the MC along with Ivy, but things have changed, could they ever get a second chance?

Due to unfortunate circumstances, years happen, and now time to see where and when their lives will become more! Full of intense love, emotions, drama and violence. Beautiful story ❤️.

Stone is coming back after vanishing five years earlier to claim his place in the MC and he wants Ivy. But Ivy had to move forward when he left so she’s with his bf, Gray. But on top of these problems he has a rival trying to hurt him. A very good ending to the series with this book.

Great storytelling as always and a wonderful cast of characters. Stone left 5 years ago but, he's back and he wants Ivy back. Is it to late? Enemies are lurking everywhere. Can Stone protect Ivy? I couldn't put this book down once I started. I'm just heartbroken this is the last book in this phenomenal series.

Stone is a wonderful culmination to the Reckless Souls MC and I am sad to see it end. He has returned and reconnected with Ivy the woman he left behind. She is skeptical of him, but he wants her back in his life. When an old enemy return will he be able to vanquish them and keep Ivy safe.

I loved that Stone and Ivy's second chance love story is the final book in this fabulous series but I am also sad that this is the final book in the Reckless Souls series. A great storyline, MC drama, steam, friendship and love, danger, and so much more make this a page turning addition to the series. The epilogue was the sweet cherry on top.
