Story: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Trope: series wrap-up
Angst: 😱😱😱😱😱
Smexy: 🔥🔥🔥

Condemned Soul was the absolute perfect ending for this Dirty Souls chapter. I really don't think it could have been better. Dark and gritty. Lots of drama and a whole lot of onion chopping going on, lol. As always, Emma sets us up with a fabulous storyline and twists that will blow your mind. Emma included the opening of the Long Beach chapter as a teaser and I'm super excited for what's to come!

It's a bitter sweet ending... We get to say goodbye to those characters we loved so much, but at the same time, Jimmer deserved better. The fact he went down on his own accord, in his own conditions, doesn't make it any better, nor does it provide great comfort. And I think we'll miss Manitou Springs and the resort turned compound. I know I will. I really hope the next will be as exciting and with as many twists and turns as this one.

Reading this fourteenth and final book in the original Dirty Souls MC series was bittersweet because although I had wanted to read Prez’s story for ages, it meant it was the last one! 😢 Yes, there’s already a new charter, and that’s exciting, but… but… this series has honestly been one of the best I have ever read.

Having multiple points of view tell the story works so well, but it is not an easy feat for a writer. Each MC brother was the focus for at least one chapter, paying some attention to them and answering possible questions—very cleverly executed. There are flashbacks in the story that provide valuable background information about Jimmer, both his personal and club life.

I’m not going to sugarcoat it… there were some very teary moments when I literally sobbed. Everything was as it should be when you think about it, but holy moly, keep tissues on standby. To have felt the emotions this deeply, to me, means the writing was superb, and it certainly was indeed.

Be ready for some twists and turns in the story; they blew me away even though a tiny niggle had me thinking along similar lines for one thing. I can’t recommend this book or the whole series enough.

The final instalment in the Dirty Souls series 😭😭😭😭

Get those tissues ready as your going to need them 😉

What can I say apart from……Emma, you’ve written one hell of an ending!!!!!!

We saw in the last book that Jimmer the Prez has been talking with an ATF agent and also trying to get the ‘new chapter’ a new prez

We get to see his back story and what’s going on in the background now as to why he’s speaking with the gorgeous agent and watch how these ‘Dirty Souls’ come together when needed

This is by far worth more that 5 stars 🌟

AN ABSOLUTE MUST READ NOW!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing!!

With this being the final book in this series I felt like I was put through the wringer with how this book touched my heart. Jimmer is the Prez of the Dirty Souls MC and has lived quite the life and its all coming together with flashbacks to help us along.

What a great series and this book just added to the awesomeness of it. I highly recommend not only this book but the others in the series as well. Ms. Creed is a superb author.

This is the final book in the The Dirty Soul MC Colorado series and it does not disappoint. I have been so ready for Prez' story and I was so happy that this was it. We get his backstory and so many answers. I couldn't put this installment down with all of the emotions and the whirlwind it was.

I was so excited for Prezs story. But also knowing it was the end of the series I was kinda dreading it because I knew in true Emma fashion our hearts were going to be destroyed! Prez’s story was just as I expected and I could not put the book down!

I've loved every single book in this series, I love all the men for different reasons, I knew prez was going to be special but what I wasn't ready for was how bad it would destroy my soul, this man... Ive cried so much throughout this book my head hurts. Its left me speechless, because wow I didn't see that coming . As sad as it was though and as much as my heart hurts It's absolute phenomenal end to this series.

I still can’t believe we’ve came to the end of this amazing series. Don’t think I can ever say goodbye to all these wonderful characters.

This final instalment pulled out a whirlwind of emotions. I’m still struggling for words about everything that transpired. So all I’m going to say is buckle up for the final ride, and make sure to have tissues at hand guys.

what the hell

Ok all the reviews said this book was great for the ending but I guess I am the one bad egg because it wasn’t, I was expecting more of a BIG BANG, THE FINAL SHOW DOWN, THE BIG WAR but nothing. I didn’t like the start to the series it didn’t WOW ME. But my friend that recommended it told me to stick with it because it will get better. IT DID NOT, not for me anyway 14 books in the series and I only did like reading two Rogue and Grim and Screwy and Lydia. They started great but in the end they ended flat. But this book meant to be about a great Prez one of the founders right . The way he was portrayed throughout the series everyone feared him so he needed an Explosion finish, firework like Big Ben on new year’s.
This book is meant to be about him but he didn’t even have half the book only a few chapters but the book was about him. I get what the author was trying to do about his love story being the club and family but it didn’t work after 14 books it needed to end on a high note something that stays with you for a long time that when someone asks me if I read a good book lately I can say YES NOT A GOOD BOOK A BRILLIANT BOOK.
Spoilers
Even the way he died was crap the build up about Cliff and everything then to be moving it over to start another series to continue and I bet the author will drag it out the way she did chop, through 13 books and that was poor execution too.
Authors who are writing Mafia and MC books need new and fresh material. I need a book that will BLOW MY MIND.

I’m a father and I’m a leader, and when life kicks ya into the dirt, I ain’t got no choice but to dust myself off and keep fighting.

The one man who has always led his club through anything.
The biker who’s engine roars just as loud as his battle cry.
The boy who became a man with a family around him that will do anything to save him.

He claimed the title of Prez…but he’s more known to his friends, his brother and his family as Jimmer Carson.

The legendary President of the Dirty Souls Colorado.

But every man has his limits. I hold a lot of power, but not enough to get me out of this one.

For years now Jimmer has been valuing his club even more, with every threat that has challenged them there has always been a solution and mostly a bloody one. But now time is breathing down Jimmer's neck and now everything that Jimmer has built is going to come crashing down with the ATF gunning for his club.

The past is also causing Jimmer to count the stars at night, with past choices eating him away and wishing that there was a different road he could have taken. However, those choices are coming back now, can Jimmer change what has come to pass or has time proven that those decisions were right after all? Even at the cost of broken hearts and reliving those painful memories.

Jimmer at a crossroads, with an open free road and a devil along for the journey.

Can Jimmer sacrifice himself and save his club…or will his loyal brothers take to their bikes and join him one last time?

“You need the Dirty Soul experience.”

With tears staining my pillow I have finally finished this epic series!

The last book had to be Jimmer Carson and my my what an ending we have! Throughout the series Jimmer has been a strong leader, finding out every bit of information about him and having those last chapters after everyone else story was just a glimmer into his head.

We find out even more of the past where Jimmer started in Colorado, starting with Hayley being born to her so-called “mother” Mary-Ann and you saw how wicked she really was. Then Joanna, Elle “mother” the story combining that time in Jimmer's past along with the current affair happening with the ATF.

There is a lot of drama, spin twists and as always a hell of emotion. I think for some time reading this series you might have an idea of some things that may happen and how events will turn out. But even so, reading and feeling this story play out is a whole different journey.

Emma Creed has done beyond words for this series, being a reader and previous new to MC trope I can say that this is no doubt one of the best series out there.

It’s never goodbye, we will ride alongside these characters again. After all, we're now bounded loyalty.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. This is my own opinion and was not influenced by anyone.

Condemned Souls is book 14 and the end of the original Dirty Souls series. I am not sure how to review this book because it has to be experienced first hand without spoilers. I will say get several boxes of Kleenex because it is a very emotional ride.

This is Jimmer Carson's story. The President and founder of the Dirty Souls. All of the men and women in the group are very involved in trying to clean up the mess Cliff, from Long Beach has put everyone into. Leave to Jimmer to plan a way to save them all. Together with an ATF agent he plans the future for the Souls.

Emma Creed has written this series so well you can't help but feel like these men and women are your family. I look forward to each book to tell the story of another Soul and his path to find love. The world they live in is so clear, it seems like the town next door.

The book is full of emotions that the reader will have along with the characters in the book. Jimmer's backstory is finally revealed showing how he became the man he is today. Condemned Souls is written from the perspective of the men and women of the group. I know after reading I had to take some time to digest. This book affected me deeply and I kept trying to remind myself this is a work of fiction, not real life. Emma Creed has written the ending to be both sad and possibly (with time) uplifting but in all, the way the series should end.

To appreciate this book, please start at the beginning of the series. You will see the characters grow and truly become a tight family who loves and supports each other. I am so sad for this series to end but am excited for read about the other chapters

Condemned Soul is the final book that I never knew I wanted, but absolutely needed. Emma Creed does an incredible job of tying up some ends, specifically with the Dirty Souls- Manitou Springs, CO chapter.

Jimmer Carson (Prez) has been my favorite since the start of the series, and after reading his book, I will never change my mind. When I tell you that you will need copious amounts of wine, chocolate, and tissues, I’m not even joking. This might be the hardest that I’ve ever cried at a story, and that’s saying something.

Funny thing is, despite all the emotion, it was done just beautifully, bringing all the men and women of the Dirty Souls MC together, sharing different viewpoints throughout the book. It didn’t just focus on Prez and Agent Consuela… but everyone. There are twists and turns that I was definitely not expecting, leading to a conclusion that seems to be the only perfect one that it could’ve been, even though I’m choking on those words.

I hesitate to say too much because I don’t want to ruin it for anyone, but I will say that this series, and specifically this book, has left a lasting impression on me and I’m still hanging onto this book hangover, even a few days after finishing it.

Please be sure to read this series in order, starting with Jessie’s story in Lost Soul. You will want every little piece to fit together to get the most out of this series. I recommend this series all the time, and will continue to do so.

God Damn it!! Emma Creed nailed Prez's story and this series conclusion.
I knew going in this was going to Bittersweet!! But... the ugly tears were not pretty.

Condemned Soul is fourteenth and final book in the Dirty Souls MC series and what a fricken ride!!!!
Everything about this book slayed me. The Dual POV from all my favs put my emotions through the wringer.

Flashbacks filled in some gaps, answers to all the questions were given, easter eggs were dropped for future stories and the perfectly placed humour from these loveable bikers gave some laughs and lightness to the story.
I could not not love Jimmer Carson any more! What a Man! The sacrifices he has made for his club and the people he loves is everything. I'm not going to lie, Prez I wanted something slightly different (maybe him and me?? hehe) but.... he got the ending that he wanted and honestly I'm not sure another ending would have fitted more perfectly.
I'm not going to give away this story because honestly you just have to grab that bottle of wine and tissues and dive on in..... It's emotional, it's angsty, it's a little humorous, it has twists and turns and most importantly it's full of dirty souls brotherhood, family, friendships and love.

I can’t recommend this series enough!!!! Be warned these Dirty Souls will steal your soul.

This was the last book of the series of the dirty soul. Omg I never thought I could finished this book without crying. From the beginning how the story started. All my hair and emotional was getting me I knew what was going to happen and I couldn’t accept. But it turn out so true. I never cry so hard and walk away to get my bearings check. Jimmer story was prefect and understood why you went to the path. But is was very hard to see every member what they need to say to their Prez. Jesus I can’t even stop crying. This whole series was a rolling coaster ride and the most was the prez . That you feel it in your heart. That you are a part of his family. And see his family grown for the next generation. The charters were amazing as well Kathrine Consuela we find out what part she play in Prez. Life. The shocker hitting you well you read this books. I recommend this book I give 5/5 and the series as well . What a roller coaster ride .

Well duck. My heart freaking hurts. I honestly couldn't have planned a better ending to the OG Dirty Souls... As heartbreaking as it was, it was perfect for our Prez and I'm glad Emma had the strength to write it, because I sure as heck couldn't have.

I feel like this entire book was an epilogue... Not much happened and yet so much did. I loved watching all of my favorite characters get their last POVs in and seeing them say goodbye to the OG Prez. There was so many wonderful moments among the sad ones and I loved them all.

The only thing I wish we got more of was Consuela... I'm hoping her story hasn't ended here and we get more from her as we head to Long Beach. Even just a check in... I really loved her, especially after finding out why she decided to help Jimmer.

I'm really excited to head to California full time. I'm excited for Raze's story, but unaliving for Tawk's. This is gonna be a fantastic series, I can already feel it.

Emma Creed you have totally blown my mind. I was not prepared for this book and I was most certainly not prepared to say goodbye to our beloved Dirty Souls MC but you have saved the very, vest best for last and this book just cemented all the outstanding work you have done with the other books in this series. Jimmer Carson has always been the best president but this book truly showed his soul and love for his club brothers. Emotional and so heart wrenching this book had me reaching for the tissues and needing to take time to console myself at the end. Everything about this book was perfect and a fitting end to this chapter. I will miss the characters and their crazy antics but I know that I will be rereading this series again and again when I need my Dirty Souls MC fix. Thank you Emma Creed for this wonderful ride and I am so excited to see what you have in store for us in the future. Congratulations on an amazing series. A must read!

I thought that this book was exceptional. And so is Prez. The focus of this book is not romance, although we see how the romances from the 13 previous books end up. The story is from multiple POV’s and we see the characters react to shocking events. Jimmer, aka Prez, has the most POV chapters as he remembers his past and the women who helped shape his life by having his children. Some of the flashbacks were bittersweet because we know how everything turned out. Jimmer must be an incredible chess player; his plans and strategies are intricate, far reaching, and always successful in the end. Not gonna lie; some readers are going to dislike how this saga ends for Jimmer. But I thought it was brilliant, and absolutely in keeping with his character.

This is the final in the series, if you have been reading it in order, you know one of the other chapters has put the screws to the rest. This one centers on Jimmer and those females who have come into his life at varying times. Jimmer started the club when he wanted something that felt like family when left his family's ranch. Things are coming to a head for the club due to other members outside of this club. He does not see another way out and he makes hard decisions without consulting the rest of his brothers.

This is a great ending to the series but hits harder than any of the other books in the series. This is a tear jerker, have the tissues ready, especially the last hour of the book. This one made my heart hurt.

This has been a journey that at times felt like I'm not gonna make it. I've lost the "plot" a few times with all that was going on in the lives of the Souls in Manitou Springs. The strength of these men and their ol' ladies are just phenomenal. Did you notice that it was Jimmer who guided the men towards their ladies. Very subtly. But then again. He picked only the best. He saw something in every Soul that he added to his club. I'm sure he's very proud of all his Dirty Souls. This book was written with compassion and with an ending that broke my heart, but it had to happen the way it did. Thank you Emma Creed for a great series. Colorado Souls you Rock
But I'm so looking forward to the next chapter

Wow and thats it, the end of the Dirty Souls Colorado chapter.. why did it have to end?? 😭😂
This time we get the story of Prez.. well actually its a story with them all having a part around their relationship with Prez and what a man he is!!!
I have read, loved, devoured and fell in love with each and every single one of these characters over the years and i can 1000% say that they will be re read by me over time as im just not ready to let these guys go yet!
I personally think that Emma done this story in such a good way although i can imagine that others dont feel that way about it LOL
I honestly cant say much as i dont wanna give spoilers but i will say THANK YOU Emma for taking us on this journey with the most amazing MC family ever 🖤

Oh my did this one get me in the feels! It was a slow start as there was a mix of past/present - it was needed but I know it is not everyone’s cup of tea.
All the guys have been through so much in the last 13 books that it felt a bit cruel to do this to them. However, as the book progresses so does greater understanding of the why and you realise this is a great book for Jimmer. I am sad to see this series end but loved the sneak peak into the Long Beach chapter and I hope we may see some our favourites from time to time and will probably get a brand new batch of favourites!.

Absolute pure perfection. So exquisitely written , it draws out every single emotion, you will know when you’ve finished that you have read one of those books that will always stay with you , it’s that good .

This is the last book in this series , & it is the Prez , Jimmer Carson’s story .

Many stories , that have run through previous books in the series , get answers .

The biggest danger for the Dirty Soul’s MC club is coming down on them at speed . Jimmer does the only thing that will save his family , & he is going to do it on his terms .

Hearts will break , & tears will fall, not just the characters, but the readers too .

This is a must read

I AM NOT OKAY

14 books! Fourteen chances for me to fall in love with all the bad boys. Fourteen chances for me to cheer for the Dirty Souls. Fourteen chances to laugh, cry, and worry with and about the Dirty Souls. I'm not ready to leave any of them behind. I'm not prepared to say goodbye. I'm not usually a MC troupe fan but Nyx hooked me and one by one each guy reeled me in. Prez was always there even when he wasn't seen. I finished this book last night but apparently I wasn't done with Jimmer because he's tagged along with me to work today. My goodness! There may be more Souls but there will only be one OG charter.

What a ride this series was, it was emotional!

I knew this was going to be a hard read, big girl pant had to be put on!

With out giving spoilers, this was both a fitting end to the series but also a very hard ending to accept.

I have devoured this series in a back to back binge read and it’s consumed me.

It’s been an emotional rollercoaster of epic proportions, there have been many tears and tantrums throughout, but lots of laughs too, mainly thanks to Squealer!

Now I can go back to the cowboys and see how Mitch’s book turns out, then off to the Long Beach Charter to see how Raze is getting on, because someone has to bring Cliff down!
