Book 10 in this series brings more DRMC chaos and I'm totally here for it.
What worked for me:
• Joy going from quiet and traumatized victim to a full member of Tuesday's Girl Gang
• Switch's quiet patience with Joy and her daughter
• Found family vibes with no 3rd act breakup and a lot of chaos
Overall, I rate it 5⭐out of 5 which means I loved this, consider it an outstanding book, and highly recommend it. This book will be permanently downloaded on my Kindle because I know I'll feel the desire to re-read it multiple times. Not only am I looking forward to reading more by this author in the future, but their books will be automatic purchases so I can read them as soon as they are released.

3.5 star rounded down for Amazon
Chewy and the girl gang saved the book. The romance was just plain but the doomsday preppers were interesting. These books are starting to be repetitive. Too many characters. Liked the Roman surprise.

Oh wow
There is so much happening in this book. Joy and Switch finally get their HEA but there is a lot more going on. Switch's family is introduced and they're great. Roman and Dima show up. Truths are revealed and a new threat arrives.

Another Devil’s Rose MC book… and once again, I absolutely loved it.
At this point, it’s safe to say that this series has become one of my all-time favorites. Since the very beginning, there hasn’t been a single book I didn’t enjoy, and Switch is no exception. It delivers exactly what I’ve come to expect from this world: a perfect balance between romance, emotions, action, danger, family, and even touches of humor that make everything feel real and grounded.
One of the things I appreciate the most with this series is how memorable every single character is. Whether they’re main characters or part of the background, they all leave an impression. And that’s something quite rare—because usually, when a series gets this long, it becomes harder to keep track of everyone. But here? Not at all. Every time a new book comes out, I slip right back into the world without feeling lost.
Joy and Switch’s story was incredibly satisfying to read. Joy’s journey, especially, really stood out to me. Watching her rebuild herself after everything she’s been through—finding her strength again, learning to stand on her own, and reclaiming her life—was both emotional and empowering. She’s not just “saved”; she fights for herself, and I loved that.
Switch, on the other hand, is exactly the kind of MMC I enjoy: calm, controlled, protective without being overbearing (well… most of the time), and deeply caring in a quiet way. His internal struggle between giving Joy space and wanting to step in added a really nice layer to their dynamic. Their relationship doesn’t feel rushed—it builds with intention, with respect, and with real emotional weight behind it.
Another strong point, as always, is how each couple in this series has their own unique story. It never feels repetitive. Even though we stay in the same MC world, each book brings something new—different dynamics, different stakes, different emotional journeys—and that’s what keeps the series so engaging.
The MC element itself is also, once again, on point. You really feel that sense of brotherhood and found family, which is such an essential part of MC romances for me. Add to that the external plot, the danger creeping in, and the tension rising… and it just works. Everything blends together seamlessly.
Honestly, this series just keeps delivering. If anything, it keeps getting better with each new installment.
If you’re a fan of MC romance with strong characters, emotional depth, solid plots, and that addictive found family vibe—this is definitely a series you shouldn’t sleep on.

Switch and Joy
This story started out almost timid, Switch didn’t want to move too fast and scare Joy away and Joy felt she needed to heal and couldn’t be involved with a man right away. But some new information and an group of intruders threatening Joy and Kit have the “slow start” moving to 100 real fast.
Switch is a doctor and the MC medic with a military background. He first meets Joy when she comes into the ER due to her husband. Switch can not let the abuse continue and does what any member of the DRMC would do and takes Joy and Kit to safety at the DRMC. Switch instantly knows that Joy is it for him but puts in the work to help Joy heal and get on her own 2 feet before pursuing a relationship with her. Joy moves out of Switches guest house into her own little house with Kit and gets a job working at the medical center Switch works at\owns. The MC finds out that the “buyer” is still looking for the item he purchased even though Joy’s husband is gone. This puts Switch and the MC on high alert and they move all the women and children to a safe spot while the handle business. Joy joins the girl gang antics while at the safe spot and with a little bit of drama and of course explosions, we finally get a Happily After Ever for Switch and Joy.

Is it possible that this series is just getting better and better? Why, Yes it is!!! This was one book in the series I was looking forward to reading and it didn’t disappoint. The larger than life Switch softening for his girls, Joy & Kit. Joy finally being able to move forward after her abuse. The journey of these three are just beautiful. Now the fun parts…the new character, Willa. She is going to fit right in with the Girl Gang. Then there is Chewy’s course on how to not get murdered…that was so much fun!!! And then when they all went to Switch’s family farm and his cousin Gallows comes along to keep an eye on the Girl Gang…what could go wrong 🤦🏼♀️I’m sure Chewy took a few years off his life and he is just grateful he doesn’t have a girl gang in his chapter. But, I have a feeling that is still to come.

Another hit!
I enjoyed Switch, Joy, and Kit's journey to their HEA. Joy found her confidence and strength; Switch found his peace and calm with Joy; and Kit gets a father figure that loves her.
These characters keep you in stitches as they eliminate their enemies.
Good storyline, good characters-old and new-, secrets, and hilarity makes for a great read.
Whoa Roman!!! Don't let the calm fool you, he is deadly. Does he even need bodyguards🤔
Roman and Marx, I need more!
Don't like seeing my family getting hurt but as long as they pull through, Im good.
Looks like Chef is next, can't wait!!!

How I have waited for these two to get there happy ever after! Switch has been gone for the little lady with the battered body and wounded soul and her sweet little girl from the moment they met. He has had to fight every natural inclination he has to snatch them both up and never let them go. But he does what is best for Joy, showing everyone just how much he adores the cute little mama. When trouble swings back around to torment the three of them, not only do they have the DRMC and the Bratva to protect them but some new characters that I absolutely adored! Such a fun, hilarious read with tons of sweetness and heat, CB is the queen of funny MC romances!

I love the chaos
So so so good just like all the others. I wish there was more actual romance and getting to know you between Switch and Joy, but the action was phenomenal. Roman is hot with his touch him and 💀 vibes. I laughed so hard when Gallows and Mercy were confused, annoyed, and fascinated by the girl gang. Elio always cracks me up with his creepy genius ways. Pops was a hoot as always. Can’t wait for Rider’s book. I’m also sitting on the edge of my seat for what will happen between Sage and Chef. Definitely worth the read and will read again!

Review of advance copy
Another Devil's Rose MC book has been published. Watching Switch and Joy becoming a couple during all the recent changes happening with the club, and their allies was very entertaining! It has baddies, oh yes it does! It has laughter. Has angst (Joy healing) and Switch adapting. It has craziness. It has love and surprises! Joy is what Switch needs and Joy is what Switch needs. Don't forget the kids or big littles! For the most enjoyment, read this series in order :)

Wow! Switch & Joy's story is amazing!
It was great to watch how Joy grew throughout the book. It was great to see how she found her place within the girl gang. I really enjoyed the opportunity to visit Switches family too. This book has everything a great reading adventure. Laugh out loud funny too! Another amazing DRMC story. Cleo creates such perfectly flawed likeable characters you will love. Happy Reading!

Another amazing book.
Can I just say I love Switch’s family so much another crazy group to add to the already crazy group. I love how Cleo adds so much fun (although torture fun) and laughter into her booms yet they are so gripping and have loads of suspense in them too. Switch and Joy were such a great story of love and acceptance. This crazy MC kid somehow keeps getting better and better. Please read this series you won’t be disappointed.

Just love these characters
Another magnificent read. These MC Members and their non blood family really know how to have a “good time”. The banter , the humor and the seriousness of the situations they get themselves involved in. Switch is patient with his Joy but she gets him to finally realize she feels the same. And Kit is a cutie.

Switch and his lady are fantastic. Watching the love grow as she got her feet under her was perfection. As with any Cleo book, the laugh out loud moments were phenomenal. I think how to avoid being "regular murdered" might be my new favorite Chewy saying.
Fantastic, wonderful and worthy of so much more than 5 stars!

Another excellent instalment in the DRMC and it's Switch - the medic - getting his HEA.
We also get introduced to his family, which is great and explains his most infamous quirk.
My absolute favourite character Chewy is back with all of her madcap hijinx in lots of chapters, too.
Give it a read.

As always Cleo writes exceptional stories. The characters are priceless. I love the bond the families and MC's have together. They help one another out no matter what the situation is. I love laughing and this book had me laughing throughout.

Cleo did it again
I don't know how she does it but every book I read I get more excited for the next one to come out. Switch and Joy are so hot together. Switches family is awesome I hope we see more of them. I think the ranch would be perfect for a drmc group wedding.

Bad people need bad results
While the men of DRMC take on their women’s children as their own some of these children need defending from the scum chasing them. DRMC will fight to the death to protect them.

This book cracked me up 🤣. I think the girl gang and Pops is what made me love this book. Not to mention the epic way Chewey gets people to talk. I’ve only read Fox and Nitro’s book and this one but I am going to go back and read from the beginning.
