The broken girl that Mo brought to the clubhouse had me wanting to save her from herself and anyone else that dare hurt her from the moment I saw her. Now it’s my personal mission to find the bastard that did this to her and make him suffer worse than he can possibly imagine. I’m trying to piece this broken soul back together with my own two hands, but can we really withstand the trauma she’s been through or are we doomed before we even begin?
Bristol
Most girls at seventeen are thinking about college, parties, what boy they want to go to prom with. Me? I was thinking of a way to escape my new reality. I was kidnapped before I could make any of those normal seventeen year old girl decisions. Instead of normal, I was held in a concrete room and forced to become a toy for my own personal version of Satan for six long years. Then my new reality took a turn. I was rescued. SAVED. But at what cost?

The Tattered Saints MC is like very few I’ve read about in stories, but it’s a good thing. They are perfect for this young woman who has gone through such a dreadful trauma.
This story deals with some extremely serious issues. They are explored with compassion and don’t hide from essential details. At times, my whole body shuddered, and my heart nearly broke with the description of what was happening in the scene. Such is the depth of feeling you experience reading this story—excellent emotive writing. To balance these darker elements, some humorous parts leave you chuckling. I won’t lie; this is quite an emotional story due to its content, but it’s not over the top as stated.
This story is generally relatively fast-paced, and the character descriptions gradually evolved. Still, the two lead characters, Bristol and Sebastian, seemed to jump headfirst into a more intense relationship without knowing each other very well. For someone who has been through the trauma she had, it seemed a little unrealistic.
I thoroughly enjoyed how the ending closed the circle for Bristol. It was a great exit. I hope there will be more stories about these characters in the future.
Bristol had this crazy journey ahead of her and I’m so happy that she made it out😫
She had so many plans for her life then BOOM something tragic happens and her life becomes so horrible. Everything that she went through was so mind altering and I’m so happy that by the end, she still had a part of herself left. You see where she kinda starts to give up after years of abuse but she’s still so strong. Sebastian comes in at the best time to rescue her and I literally yelled out loud lol🤣
The mc world is so intricate and I love the part Sebastian and Bristol play in it. I was so freaking happy when she got her revenge too, the best pay off ever😭
The spice was DARK and JUICY whewwwww, had a girl fanning herself🥵
Bristol was kidnapped and for years used in ways she never would have imagined. She ends up getting rescued and taken to the Tattered Saints MC clubhouse and taken under their wing, more specifically Sebastian/Bash's. Bash doesn't understand it, and actually has guilt about it, but there is something about Bristol that makes him take noticed. Can Bash help Bristol deal with all that has happened to her?
My first read by this author, and I found this to be an ok read. In my opinion somethings just didn't add up but that's just how I felt while reading it. We get some drama, hot naughty moments, danger, and a bit of violence. I give this 4 stars.
First and foremost... Bash is .... wow...wow... WOW! Bristols story had twists and turns, cliffhanging chapters that kept me turning pages to keep reading, smut, smut, smut, also a plus, absolutely one of my favorite reads this month! I wish it was a tad bit longer, I did not want Sebastian and Bristols story to end! Biker families are very close so don't fuck with what's theirs! 🖤
This is my first book by Nicole Sulli and I'm definitely gonna be reading more that's for sure!!
I read this pretty quickly it was really fast paced and such a good read. I do love an MC book and haven't read any for a while and this has definitely made me fall back in love with that trope. I was hooked from the very first chapter, reading what Bristol goes through honestly makes your skin crawl. Bristol has been kidnapped and used as a sex slave for Patrick, she was only 17 when she was taken and has been there for 6 years. When she's finally rescued by the bike gang she meets Sebastian or Bash as people call him. OMG don't get me started on Bash 😍 I fully fell in love with this guy ❤️ and Bristol is so strong with everything she's been through she's still amazingly strong and resilient.
Once Bash sees Bristol the man is done ✅ he wants her but not sure how to proceed with everything she's been through but Bristol also wants him and boy when they get together 🥵 the sex scenes are lush and will definitely get you all hot and bothered lol. What will happen when they find Patrick? Will Bristol cope with being out in the real world? Honestly this is so fast moving that I was super sad it finished but I have to say the smile on my face when they finally find Patrick and torture him oof yeah lol. I feel like this did finish abruptly and we could have done with an epilogue of how Bash and Bristol are after a few years maybe just to see where they are in their lives. Beware there are triggers these include..... Captivity Torture SA/R**e Child Abuse Violence Blood and murder
Honestly this 📖 is so good just wish we were getting more from these characters.
Between 3.5/5 and 4/5 "Bristol" is a MC romance. The story follows Bristol and Sebastian. We start the book off with Bristol in a warehouse. Through the inner-monologue of Bristol, we learn about her past and why she is in this currently place. Bristol is rescued by a member, Mo, of the Tattered Saints MC. She's brought to the clubhouse of the MC and meets Sebastian. "Bristol" does dabble into dark subject matter, so check the trigger warnings. For me, the dark parts of the story were not explicit and those scenes were at the very beginning. The book's pace is fast, so we don't linger too long on those scenes.
I lean towards the book being 4 stars because, as whole, the book keeps you engaged and the relationship between Bristol and Sebastian is very captivating. What makes me debate between a 3.5 stars and 4 stars is that considering all that Bristol has been through, the choice to make the relationship between her and Bash an insta-connection/love relationship is jarring. While, it's not implausible for the relationship to develop quickly, but it feels like Bristol's trauma was brushed under rug and there wasn't a point where she actually reflected. The spice in the story was good, but instead of those spicy scenes, we could have had more scenes exploring both Sebastian and Bristol as characters.
I received this ARC and i really enjoyed it. There were a few grammatical errors but nothing outrageous. The plot was good at times I would have liked a little more detail for some of the characters. It was a pretty fast pace read and the spice in the book was really good. The only thing i did not like was how abruptly the book just ends. I feel like with all the intense trauma that happened to Bristol and the Sebastian I need a more thorough ending. I get that at the end she gets her revenge but the situation of said revenge was a bit heavy and then she just plops on Sebastian’s bike and says Monday’s aren’t so bad, 🙄No!!!! That is not how to end such a trauma filled story🤦🏼♀️. I feel like there definitely needed to be an epilogue that helped cleanly wrap up the ending after of all the events like maybe 6months or a year after everything happened idk thats my personal feeling. Other than the ending I did enjoy the book and the characters.
This book is like an addiction! I just kept wanting more and more. The chemistry between Sebastian and Bristol is unmatched. Nicole did such an amazing job of showing Bristol working through some of the hardest, gut-wrenching moments of her life while skillfully mixing it with the magical, yet sinful moments of falling in love with a sexy ass man from an MC. You can tell that Bash is everything she ever needed and the way he understands what she needs without ever speaking a word at the end of the book shows how they were truly made for each other.
NOT TO MENTION the Monday parallel IS EVERYTHING. "I look at the calendar that hangs above my bed. Monday again. Even in captive, Mondays sucked." "Mondays don't suck so bad after all." AND RELEASED ON A MONDAY. Nicole is a fucking genius. I cannot WAIT to read more books from her.
This was my first MC book, and it has me HOOKED! Devoured this in one day and let's just say it's so so good I was eating popcorn for the last 40 pages 🤣. Definitely has dark parts but have amazing parts that make a dark person happy. Thank you so so much Nicole Sulli for this book.
This book takes you on a journey. You feel everything. This is the first book I've read from her but it won't be the last! I want to be Bristol when I grow up!!!
Sebastian and Bristol meet under very teamatic circumstances but they both have a spark. I really enjoyed the way he was with her. She was also stronger then she thought.
I was given an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoyed this book! I was hooked from the very first chapter when we learned of Bristol’s circumstances. Watching her grow and evolve (and even get a little revenge) was amazing. She is such a strong FMC, who can protect herself. But in comes Sebastian to protect anyway. Motorcycles, tattoos, and strong touch her and 💀vibes. What more can you ask for? Can’t wait to read more books from Nicole Sulli!
Absolutely amazing!!!! I loved this book and I wish I could have read it in one sitting. It is so attention drawing and you get sucked into their universe so easily! The spice is amazing and pretty detailed. The best part is honestly when they are the carnival🌶🌶
I was immediately sucked in from the first chapter of this book!! Easy read, very fast paced.. kept my interest I haven’t read a book this fast in a while.. however was very disappointed in the ending.. after I read the end.. I was looking for epilogue.. I think a bonus chapter would be awesome! I would definitely recommend!!
What an amazing book of survival, healing, love, strength, and badass. I love the dynamic of Bash and Bristol…one of my favorite lines was when she says “No, it was you. He saved me from my situation. From my circumstances. You saved me from myself. From the hell that lurks in my mind. From every bad thing that’s ever happened to me. You save me every single day.” And the other is Sebastian saying “I love to cook. It’s my love language, I’ve been told.” It made me love him even more. I loved how each got vindication and healing with both Patrick and Princess. Overall it was a good book and I would recommend and read again.
I wanted to love this book because I really enjoyed the synopsis but it was underwhelming. There were quite a bit of grammatical errors and sentence structure issues. I felt like I was rereading some parts because it just didn’t make sense.
I felt like the foundation for the characters were there but the book was so fast paced that the development was missed. Once it was close to the end of the book the characters suddenly developed.
I feel like the timeline of the book was suppose to be a slower pace than it was. But it just felt so rushed.
I feel like the ending could’ve been resolved . It wasn’t in the style of a cliffhanger. The book just abruptly ended. I feel like the ending would’ve been better if the characters and the storyline was wrapped up. Like maybe 3 to 6 months down the line total a little more of their story and how their life is now and then ended the book.
Bristol has been kidnapped and held captive for 6 years and has been rescued and brought to a biker clubhouse where she meets Sebastian. He is literally her knight and shining armour. I felt some of the story was rushed, Bristol went through a hell of a lot, and it was really spoken about. She seemed absolutely fine. I would have liked to have seen more of a character development in the fmc.
I just don’t even know where to start with this story because it has EVERYTHING! IT IS EVERYTHING!!! I absolutely fell in love with Bristol in that very first scene. Your heart can’t help but break for her and you can’t help but try to place yourself in her shoes—kidnapped and abused. She has such a strong will and she is such a fighter, you just can’t help but immediately fall in love with her while on the flip side you immediately hate Patrick!!! I never knew I could be sooo turned off by praise until I read him telling her “good girl”. I immediately needed him dead. The mix of the MMC was such a fantastic added bonus. It’s one thing to have your man hunting a pedophile down but the whole club?! The dynamic between Bristol & Sebastian is almost magical. I found myself second guessing their relationship, because she jumped from being kidnapped by Patrick to living with Bash BUT Nicole Sulli wrapped it all up with a beautiful, sinful bow in the last scene. You understand just how much he understands her and she understands him. Also, the plot twists at the end had my jaw dropped and had me punching the wall as I read. This was hands down one of the best books I’ve read this year!!!

I don’t think my heart was ready for this read but I’m grateful I saw it through !
When I first met Bristol I was sick to my stomach for the situation she found herself in and for what she was going through at the hands of Patrick 😪🫣🤮
Maurice made a delivery to her “ prison” and he had a suspicion something was and eventually he took action and freed her from hell 6 year hell hole and both Bristol and I are grateful for that ! He takes her to the safest place he knows ,the clubhouse of Tattered Saints MC !
I can’t begin to imagine the trauma Bristol has been through but my heart shattered into a million pieces when she realises her whole family has been murdered and to add insult to injury the community was divided on her involvement and innocence 🤷♀️🫣🥲 how much can one human take
Sebastian ( Bash) and the men of the Tattered Saints are out for blood and Patrick is a hunted man I wish I was part of this team !
Sebastian and Bristol form a bond that turns into life and I just love how protective he is of her but in truth the Tattered Saints are good folk and I know bikers have a rep but they’re real , honest and defend what’s their and that says plenty of their character to me 🥰.
Bristol may be scarred and traumatised but don’t underestimate her just ask “ Princess” 🫣🤣🙈 Sebastian is gentle , patient , passionate , dominant and out for revenge but he’s also the healing balm Bristol needed !
I can’t wait to head back to the Tattered Saints and my clubhouse 😉
I received this book as an ARC, and this is my honest review.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 for me 🌶️🌶️/5. But in the most delicious way!!
I absolutely loved this book. What the story was about, what the characters were about, and of course the biker trope.! Because who doesn’t love a biker book! 🤪 I did notice in the beginning a small time frame jump but it was easy to figure out where/how it happened. Bristol and Sebastian’s story is only 240 pages. But in those 240 pages you learn about them, their past, their current, and watch them grow and flourish!!! AND get a HEA, not to mention their revenge. I couldn’t have asked for a better palette cleanser for my really dark reads. This book is really only about a day read if you’re not busy; and let me tell youuuu it’s so worth it. I will also say, there were a few grammar errors but NOTHING major. One I noticed was a simple “of” missing in a sentence towards the end of the book. And honestly, it didn’t really matter to me, things like that don’t make or break a book. But I also would have definitely liked to see an epilogue to know where they ended maybe 6 months down the line? Or even 1-2 years later. All in all, it was an amazing book. It does have a few trigger warnings, PLEASE read those for my girly’s who don’t like specific things! TW: Captivity, Torture, SA/Grape, Drugs, Anxiety, Blood, Murder, Child Abuse, Violence. I will note the child abuse isn’t described or anything. But more so I reference as to the MMC knew what was/has happened to the kids.
This book had me hooked from the very first page! It strikes a fantastic balance between steamy scenes and gripping plot twists, with just the right amount of edge. I was new to the world of motorcycle clubs, and this story has definitely made me a fan of the trope. The darker moments add depth, but the overall tone is accessible even if you’re just starting to explore dark romance.
Bristol is an incredibly strong character who deserves every bit of her well-earned happy ending. While I wished for a bit more at the end, the conclusion left me satisfied. Bash & Bristol’s story had me laughing, nearly crying, and kept my heart racing from start to finish.

I am LOVING biker books right now and Sebastian and Bristol’s story did not disappoint! My only complaint was I didn’t want their story to end and wanted it to keep going! From the very beginning I was drawn to Bristol and her story.
After being kidnapped and held hostage for 6 years, Bristol is rescued by a burly biker and taken back to the Tattered Saints clubhouse where Bash takes her under his wing. I loved getting to see how she evolved as a character. Bristol can definitely take care of herself but who wouldn’t want a big strong biker like Sebastian to take care of them.
This is a fast read that will leave your jaw on the floor with the final surprise!
Bristol was stolen from her family and kept locked away for 6 years before she’s saved by a burly motorcycle club member. Once she’s back at the club, she meets Sebastian and it is insta-attraction. Together, they build a new life, and tie up loose ends. I enjoyed how Sebastian didn’t hold back with Bristol and Bristol had fast character development. This was a quick read with lots of spice. There were some aspects that just didn’t jive with me but those were minimal. SA survivors often find healing in reclaiming their sexuality and that was very enjoyable to see on page for Bristol. More than anything I love a reformed playboy trope and a “eff it” moment.
“Baby, you’re f*cking perfect. In every goddamned aspect of the word from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet, there isn’t a single thing in between that is less than absolute perfection. And I’m willing to spend however long it takes showing that to you.”
I was given a free ARC. I am leaving a review voluntarily.
OHfreakingKAY!!! Bristol is a bad b*tch. Period, that is the review.....kidding, but seriously, the devastation of her story is enough to make you cheer for her and all of her crazy. She just keeps swinging (literally and figuratively) and refuses to be taken down! Love a strong FMC, and Bristol is for sure at the top of that list. Every FMC should have a badass sidekick, and Bristol finds that in Bash, who is *chefs kiss*. The CHEMISTRY between these two is chart topping. And let's be real he's a bada** in his own right (and a main character), BUT this one goes to Bristol, the woman who didn't let life beat her down! The storyline is easy to follow, well written, and fast-paced; hello to some spice, too! Cannot wait to see what else goes down with Tattered Saints MC series!!!
I received this ARC For my honest review and I gotta say it was a darn good book! You know when you read a book and something horrible happens to a character and you think to yourself I hope they do something just a horrible back for revenge? Yup this book has this and I freaking loved it! The book is fast paced and more than once I was surprised. Which being surprised in book doesn’t happen a lot for me anymore. I only wish there was a little more about healing/adjusting after everything Bristol went through. I hope this book becomes a series because I will be scooping them up immediately!
“Sebastian bathes me until every inch of my body has been touched by the rag in his hand. When I finally open my eyes, my relaxed body is begging for rest. Between everything that happened today and all the orgasms, I can’t wait to curl up into Sebastian and sleep.”
Bristol is dark and twisty. Coping the only way she knows how, by knowing exactly what she wants. She wants a life. She wants a family. And after she meets him, she wants Sebastian. She is strong without losing her emotions. She is sweet without losing her fire. She takes no shit from you princess, you know who you are. Her mission is to move on. His mission is revenge.
Bash doesn’t like people taking advantage. Using connections is one thing but taking the life of a child is a no no. That man may have kept Bristol alive but at what cost. Bash must find him. Must make him pay. How though? He becomes obsessed. With her body and her happiness. But he’s scared. Scared to cross into a place that would only hurt her more. So he waits. Until he can’t anymore. He loves showing her the world while playing a deadly game of hide and seek with her kidnapper.
This was one of those books that ended way too soon and although it may be a happily ever after it’s not quite the one you expect. I’m so excited for the way it ended because it opens up the possibilities of more stories. Maybe theirs maybe just getting a glimpse of theirs from someone else’s point of view.
Life. Loss. Revenge. Death. Hurt. Happiness. Orgasms. Blood. Fear. Drama. All things you’ll find here.
Grab a comfy chair because you’ll be on the edge of it.
Excerpt From Bristol: Tattered Saints MC Nicole Sulli This material may be protected by copyright.
Bristol is a fast-paced read that hooked me right from the start. We're thrown straight into chaos within the first few pages, and I was addicted.
I absolutely loved the characters, especially Bristol. It was a good change to have a badass FMC that grows in strength. She's an incredible character, and I loved reading about her.
The relationship between Bristol and Sebastian was believable, and the spice was good.
I loved the dual POV and the alternating chapters between the two main characters, I felt like we got to know them both equally. There are quite a few side characters, some we got to know more than others. I hope future books in the Tattered Saints series will focus on the characters.
I read this book in one sitting. It was easy to get sucked in, and I just wanted to keep reading. It had a satisfying ending however it did end rather abruptly. I'm so used to having an epilogue, and I felt this book could have benefited with one.
I hope this isn't the last time we see these characters, and I definitely will be reading more from Nicole in the future.
I loved this book!! It reminded me of my favorite MC tv show, Sons of Anarchy.
To begin with we meet Bristol, she is a girl that was kidnapped as a young girl. After being kidnapped, she was tortured for years by her kidnapper. One night a stranger comes and save her.
The stranger ends up being part of a Motorcycle Club. One of the members, Sebastian takes to Bristol. He decides to do anything he can to protect her and help her at the same time. While doing this he falls in love with her.
This book has alot of twists and turns, sad times, and happy times. It has became my top favorite MC book. I cant wait to see what book in the future comes from this author!!
