Everything I thought I knew about my woman has been shattered. Now, it’s up to me to collect the pieces and decide if Margot and I are a match made in heaven—or destined for hell.
Collect the Pieces needs to be read after Twist the Knife.

Jiggy and Margot are very quickly becoming my absolute favourite couple Autumn has ever written.
Considering this group includes Rock and Hope and Zero and Lilly… that is HIGH praise.
Jumping back into the Lost Kings MC Clubhouse did NOT disappoint. The one liners alone are reason enough to pick up this book (start with Twist the Knife - at minimum). Add in Margot’s sweet yet dark nature and you’ve got pure gold.
The ending tossed me for a loop… but in the best, unexpected, way.
Do I want to read this book again? Yes. Immediately.
@AutumnJonesLake has done it again. Jigsaw and Margot’s story continues to keep you riveted to your seat. We learned so much more about them as individuals and as a couple. Jigsaw’s reaction to Margot’s secret “hobby” was exactly what I expected-he discovered she’s his true match and soulmate. And then to see how well she interacts with the LOKI old ladies AND the club members. Her scary story at the bonfire was a treasure. Especially the prank they play on Ravage. She’s a true old lady as evidenced when she talked with the police. OMG and the conversation with Daniel-her ex-was memorable. There are so many twists and turns, unexpected humor and compassion plus love in this book that you just have to read it for yourself. The ending will truly surprise and shock you. A definite MUST read over and over. Thank you Autumn for an unforgettable love story.
I got pranked into thinking this was the last one and turns out there’s another :( it’s definitely not necessary but clearly I am a sucker and will be reading it
Part two of Jiggy and Margots story and part one most definitely needs to be read first! I recommend the entire series but for now go with Twist The Knife 😏
After the bomb that was dropped, I was most definitely shocked and didn't know what way Jiggy would react but what I did know, was that these two are one of thee most suited couples to ever be written. Seriously, there's just this connection between the two that makes you want to hide them away from the world even though they are more that capable of looking after themselves 😏
We learn so much more about Margot and that girl is awesome, the way she handles herself, both in the workplace and then with the brothers and the mufflers when she goes upstate- I want to be Margot when I grow up!!
As for Jiggy? Ever see a humourous, slightly psychotic, emotionally damaged yet the most loyalist of people ever, fall in love? To realise that there's someone in the world that just 'gets him', that can know everything about him and still love him? Well that's what we get and I am head over heels in love with that man!!
Throughout the book we get to see lots of the other guys and see what they've been up to - I will never tire of reading about them, it's like catching up with family or a best friend you've not seen in a while.
I don't know what to say, Autumn has created a world that is one of favourite worlds ever. It is filled with people of couples, friends, found family, banter, love, loyalty - it has everything that everyone deserves. It's perfection at its finest.
Five stars will never - never ever - be enough for this world
Collect The Pieces is the 2nd part of Jiggy and Margot’s story and is part of Autumn’s Lost Kings MC world. It should be read after Twist The Knife. CTP is a slightly darker read containing scenes where child pornography and abuse is written about, but not detailed, in the first part of the book. Necessary to Margot’s story and the start of her ‘dark side’ - so be warned! We pick up where TTK ended and the ‘will Jiggy run or won’t he?’ Scenario. This book puts some meat on the bones so to speak, where we get to meet Margot properly and understand her motives and see Jiggy and his self proclaimed black heart beating full force! If you’re familiar with the Lost Kings you’ll love the guys usual banter and name calling and how the MC ladies embrace Margot, especially Shelby. There’s stories around the campfire, cookies galore, Gretal the cat, new babies and run ins with the MC bunnies. This book has it all. A path for future storylines has been set, which for any Autumn fan is really exciting! I for one am here for it all. There is a 3rd book, finishing Jiggy and Margot’s story, Scatter The Bones is released in May ‘25 An amazing 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ as always
I DNFed this book at 95% because, for 39 chapters, almost nothing happened. Then, suddenly, there was some action, just enough to make me realize there might be another book. I waited months for this release and held off on reading Twist the Knife until this book came out just to avoid this exact scenario, but seriously?
I saw the only plot twist in this couple’s story coming before I even started their books, and honestly, it didn’t fit their characters at all. Also, why does Jigsaw’s character feel so off to me? He’s a badass MC officer and a killer with a tortured childhood, yet some of his POVs sounded so girly and silly. I didn’t get the serial killer, scary biker vibe from him at all. He actually felt scarier in Rooster’s books.
All that aside, my biggest complaint is that I waited so long just to read two books about an insta-love connection with no real chemistry and no real plot—only to find out there’s another book coming, which will probably be more of the same.
I’m sorry, but no thank you. I don’t know what the cliffhanger is, and I don’t care to know. I still love the rest of the Lost Kings series and will continue to reread my favorites frequently but I think I’m probably done with this couple.
Once again our Queen has outdone herself. Her writing shines and her storytelling is unique and fabulous. Jiggy and Margot’s story continues and their relationship grows and develops into love, even after Jiggy discovers the truth about Margot and her nocturnal activities, in fact, it only serves to solidify his feelings, but we discover the truth behind Margot’s actions, and that makes me love her for being a strong woman will to protect at any cost. As the books progresses we are once again entertained by our favourite LOKI MC members and all their hilarious and crazy interactions but we also come close to discovering a truth about Margot’s ex. I am left wanting more and I know that once Autumn Jones Lake begins on the third book we are going to have our minds blown away. I reveled in the darkness and intensity of this story and I loved being back in the LOKI world, men, women and children. They become your family and you come to love them and enjoy spending time in this fictitious club. Outstanding Autumn Jones Lake. You never fail to bring a smile to my with your stories and amazing cash of characters. Five glorious stars *****
Jiggy and Margot's story had quite the little shocker at the end of book one, so of course I was eagerly awaiting this book to find out how Jig would handle what he discovered about his "sweet" little Margot. In true biker fashion his reaction did not surprise me at all...after all it seems like they were two peas in a pod and had way more in common than he would have thought. There was plenty of drama to follow them though and of course there were also a lot of laughs and good times with the rest of the LOKi gang to keep us entertained. (I especially got a kick out of a bonfire scene and the mayhem that ensues after it). All in all the story was pretty solid and if you like serial killer shows mixed with good intentions, you will enjoy this one. There is of course another small cliffie at the end, but another major twist in the story will probably put both Jiggy and Margot in some serious danger in the next book. Looking forward to what comes next and if you love the Lost Kings MC series, you will want to read Jiggy's books.
***** 4.5 ***** "you never know what lurks beneath the smile" stars
Collect the Pieces is book 25 in the Lost King's MC Series and book two of three for Jigsaw and Margot. This book had some dark elements so read trigger warnings if you're sensitive.
Seeing the character development of Jigsaw has been a real treat. Since meeting Jigsaw a lot earlier in the series he's always been known as a player with the ladies and of course scary with the enemies. Seeing his sweet side and how head over heels he is for Margot has me melting.
Margot is growing on me. I really Iove the dark, edgy side. She's really growing into a baddy and can hold her own against the women AND men. Her witty banter rivals the men too. I also love that even Jigsaw can find her a little psycho and twisted and recognize her unhinged side peeking through.
There's a mix of humor, classic LOKI banter, spice, and of course plot twists. Their relationship really blossomed in this book. We get to know more about Margot and her childhood and what made her the woman she is today. Even though we are two books in, there is so much more to uncover leaving lots to the imagination on what's to come.
Enjoyed Jiggy & Margot’s second book. Jiggy bringing her upstate was a lot of fun. Loved that we got to spend more time with the brothers and their families, I miss them 🥹
Jiggy, Rooster & Shelby’s little friendship will forever my one of my favourites. Loved that we got to see Jiggy & Jezzie working on strengthening their relationship. It’s definitely feeling like we’re setting up for Jiggy to either move upstate or he and Roosters are taking over the Deadbranch charter… I’ll be gutted to see them leave not gonna lie. I’m sure they’ll visit all the time but it won’t be the same. I’m not mad at the implications that the two NY charters will merge again though! Nothing would make me happier than Z & Lilly back upstate!
Margot’s finally told Jiggy all her secrets and as expected he only loves her more for it. They really are a perfect match. The last few chapters definitely have me intrigued! I’ve been giving her father the benefit of the doubt but I’m a little more suspicious now. Guess I’ll have to wait until May to have all my burning questions answered ✨
What a great addition to the LoKi- verse! AJL never disappoints. This is the 25th book in the LoKi series, and I think it’s the best one yet. Our lovable demonic prankster Jiggy found his lady love in Twist the Knife. That ended on a pretty big cliffhanger. Here, when her secret is out and her reasons, Jigsaw couldn’t love her more. They are the PERFECT couple. Perfect. So much happens here. And lots of groundwork for future books. I love it so much. Best scene ever? Margot tells a real life ghost story that has all the brothers squirming and sweating. Then she pranks the ultimate degenerate, Ravage. Oh boy, that was so hilarious. Cliffhanger here too. So the next book has a lot of questions to unravel. This world is like coming home to good friends and found family. I’ve already read this one twice. And I’ll probably read it again before the next book drops. Every reread of this series yields new tidbits and nuances of events to come.
It's just too easy to get consumed by an Autumn book. I'm dealing with a book slump but opening this book felt like visiting an old friend and was sad to leave when it was over.
I enjoyed the development of Jiggy and Margot in this book. We got to dive deep into these two characters and see their relationship/love go to the next level. Margot and Jiggy are perfect for each other. Jiggy normally hard and gritty, shows a lighter side that matches Margot, but also see Margot's darkside that perfectly complements Jiggy.
The bonfire weekend was my favorite part of the book. Loved seeing Margot interact with the Loki family and the campfire's stories were brilliant. I only wished there was more bonding with Shelby/Rooster.
I enjoyed the twist at the end and can't wait to see how this all plays out not only for this duo but for the entire Loki family.
Goddess I love this series so much I got this book on my kindle because I couldn’t wait I also have it on its way to me from barns and nobles I’m so impatient for june19 so I can get scatter the bones love love this series I was constantly laughing so hard everyone at work would look over and then they’d say oh she’s reading lol but I couldn’t omg the scary campfire story priceless then when she threatened the muffler bunny with her new knife yup she definitely was made for him I love all the couples every time I think I love one more than the others it’s not true I love them all ugh this series the way autumn writes it’s not boring or makes you feel dread to read an other one because they’re all different yes they all find their ole ladies but the way they do and the drama that comes with each one is always different and there’s actual storylines not just the good sex
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
I gave this two more stars than the first book in this couples story. There was a little more dialogue with the clever banter this author usually writes plus the scary story around the campfire scene was very clever. But again I have to say while reading this I thought was there a need for a second book? No I don’t think there was but then come to the end and discover there’s going to be a third book with this couple, what the heck? Jiggly and Margot are not that cute a couple. I’m annoyed I bought this book when I swore I wouldn’t read the next. There were a lot of Easter eggs for future books but I honestly don’t think I have the interest to read on because there may be 26 more book before I get to the Easter egg I’m looking for.
I truly don’t know how Autumn keeps doing it. I am a huge fan of the LOKI series and the last few books I’m almost scared to read them cause I’m afraid they won’t measure up (I have done a couple rereads of the first 8 or so books) but each time she does. Especially with Jiggy, I have been WAITING for his book(s) to come out and 100%: Could. Not. Put. Down. The chemistry between him and Margot is absolutely amazing, they are so good for one another. He brings out of her shell and she brings him in, but not to the point of changing one another. And how dare you give us another cliffhanger! But part of me knows that Jiggy had to get three books and I’m so excited to read the conclusion.
This picks up, right where Twist The Knife ended and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough I absolutely love Margot‘s character. She is confident, she speaks her mind and her loyalty to Jigsaw and his family is exactly what he needs in a partner. Jigsaw on the other hand has finally met his match, and I feel that Margot challenges him into being the best man he can be. Their story flowed beautifully, I loved all the little twists and I absolutely loved Margot meeting the entire LOKI family and her interactions with them. I was cheering her on she went toe to toe with Rav. This was definitely a five star read for me. I now need to Scatter the Bones ASAP.
Collect the Pieces is the second part of this fantastic couples story and must be read after Twist the Knife as it picks up where this first book ends. Loved this next part of Jiggy and Margot's story so much - I just can’t get enough of this couple!!!! The amazing banter between all of the characters is one of my favourite things in this series and it's like your at the party with them all when they get together. Margot's witty and sassy comebacks are hilarious and her storytelling skills around the campfire are next level:) I enjoyed getting to know more about this couple and can't wait to read more and see what happens in the next part 'Scatter the Bones' when it is released!!!
Book #25, but the second book of Jigsaw’s trilogy. This book was much better than “Twist the knife”. Oddly enough Jigsaw seems so tame in his own story. He was always written so unhinged and murder-y in the other books.
I also wanted to see Margo be a little unhinged as well but she seemed a bit tame in this book. As usual the camaraderie and humorous banter was in full effect. I love the ongoing storyline with all the past characters.
I can’t wait for the final installment! Good thing I waited to read this, I only have a month to wait!
Reading this series is a comfort read. I feel like I’m part of this big biker family.
I am living for Margot and Jigsaw’s trilogy and I loved the second book so much. Margot is indeed Lady Death and has become one of my favorite ol’ ladies (she’s not patched in but I know she’s on her way to it). I love how she’s in the funeral business and sees the good and bad in things like living and death. And using a certain knowledge to avenge those who can’t help themselves is the cherry on the top. Jigsaw is the perfect guy for her and can match and understand Margot’s personality perfectly. That man is down bad for her and I love how he is with her. The plot twists had me reading nonstop and I can’t wait to read the conclusion of their trilogy, I’m counting down the days.
Unfortunately as boring as the previous Jiggy & Margot's book. Absolutely nothing happens here and yet the author managed to squeeze a cliff hanger and a promise of a book three for this couple! I mean why? How? Are in need of more money?
Yes, I will read the next book and probably the rest of the series. But guess what, I am NOT planning to pay for those, I will get them from a library or a friend. They are not worth the money anymore.
All the guys and their women are fine, no one has any problems ,no fights over the house chores, laundry or cleaning. No arguments, all lovey dovey, all too plastic and unrealistic. This series completely lost its spark. Sorry.
It's just too easy to get consumed by an Autumn book. I'm dealing with a book slump but opening this book felt like visiting an old friend and was sad to leave when it was over.
I enjoyed the development of Jiggy and Margot in this book. We got to dive deep into these two characters and see their relationship/love go to the next level.

Autumn has done it again! Which isn't a surprise at all, she brings it every time. Jiggy is one of my favorites, and to see him get his "Little Lady Death" and for her to be so perfect for him. I feel like I'm living the story with them, like an outside observer, but still in the mix. I have loved all these characters from day one and continue to do snow. I can't wait for the next chapter in Jiggy and Margot's story. It's sure to be epic. As all of Autumn's stories are.
Bam!! Autumn Jones Lake has hit another grand slam out of the park with this book. This continues the story about Jigsaw and Margot. And yes, it ends in another cliffhanger that will have you on pins and needles until the next book comes out in May. Margot and Jiggy are a passionate couple who shares several hot and spicy scenes together. There is a possible threat in Margot's ex Daniel. It is wonderful to catch up with your favorite Lost Kings couples. I enjoyed this book so much. I cannot recommend it enough.
How do you know you’re about to read a book from one of your favorite authors? You finish it in less than a day and turn your phone to focus mode lol. If I could give this book 6 stars I would! Loved it and I love Jigsaw and Margot (aka little lady death). They are in my top 3 couples from this series! Cannot wait for the next book in their story! I won’t give any spoilers but I loved the opening of the book!
This was such an amazing part 2 and ecstatic there will be a part 3!!!! As with all the couples, I can easily read 3 plus books on each couple. The way the story weaves around previous characters while introducing new ones that you can't wait to find out more about......it's masterful storytelling.
Off to reread the entire series over and over, until the next book comes out. ❤️
Another great story from a wonderful romance author Autumn Jones Lake did it again , this book was well worth the wait!! I can't wait for the next book to come out!! Jiggy deserved someone who would understand him and would be his soul mate , Margot fits that bill in every way 😍😍 I recommend this book.with a 5 Stars review
Autumn Jones Lake never misses, but this story included too much lovey-dovey of the non-mc type, and not enough drama.
I normally finish her books in one go and sometimes within a couple hours. There was a lot of starting and stopping with this one. However, the author is one of the best there is, hands down, therefore only one star was deducted.
Jiggy and Margot turning into another amazing couple. Their love story is blossom into another great couple to add to the LOKI family. I love how the book intermingle with each other. Unfortunately Autumn did it again making me crazy while waiting for her next book.
