Gives You All The Feels
Thank you Ms. Cole and Mr. Jensen for sharing portions of your personal experiences in this book. I understood as my cousin went through the exact same thing. I was in the room when the doctor told the family they had to take the baby. The top number on her pressure was 212. Her daughter was a shade over 1 pound and is thriving today at 23. I loved everything about this book. I laughed, I teared up, I shook my head at some of the guys’ shenanigans. This book had everything I look for in a fantastic read. I can’t wait for Relay’s story.

I cannot begin to express how much I love this story! The dedication alone lets you know that you are in for an emotional story and the knowing that even with everything these authors were going through they still managed to give us such a beautiful story makes it that much better. Bolo is, by far, my favorite of the Saint Outlaw MC members. This book still gives you the banter between the MC brothers, strong-willed old ladies, vigilante action and spice we expect from Cathleen and Frank while also dragging you through an emotional minefield!!

always amazing
I just love these motorcycle series so much. So happy to see Butcher and Toxic for a minute I have missed them! It was nice to read in so much detail about having a nicu baby after having one myself! The romance and danger was great as always! Can’t wait for the next!

Awesome read!!!!
This was a beautiful book!!! It will pull at your heartstrings and give you hope. Something similar happened to me, but my support system wasn't as great as Devyn's. Bolo is the greatest book boyfriend ever!!!!

Bolo's Curveball was such an emotional and heartwarming addition to the series.
What I loved most about this book was Bolo himself. From the moment he learns about the pregnancy, he never hesitates. He doesn't try to run from the situation or make excuses—he simply shows up, over and over again. I really appreciated the way he respected Devyn's boundaries and understood that trust couldn't be built overnight. He was patient, supportive, and determined to prove through his actions that he wanted to be there for both her and their baby.
Devyn was equally easy to root for. She's independent, strong, and dealing with a lot, both emotionally and physically. I liked that her struggles weren't glossed over, and the authors handled the more difficult aspects of her journey with sensitivity and realism. It gave the story an emotional depth that made me even more invested in the couple.
The romance is beautifully balanced with the ongoing MC storyline. There's plenty of action, suspense, and tension surrounding the club, but it never overshadows the emotional core of the book. Instead, both storylines complement each other perfectly, keeping the pace engaging from beginning to end.
As always, the brotherhood within the Saint's Outlaws was one of my favorite parts. The banter, loyalty, and unwavering support between the club members continue to make this series so enjoyable. I also have to mention Relay, who completely stole several scenes for me. His support and devotion were incredibly touching, and I already know I'm going to love his book.
Overall, this was a wonderful blend of romance, emotion, suspense, and found family. It made me smile, tugged at my heartstrings more than once, and reminded me why I enjoy this series so much. I can't wait to continue with the next installment.

Talk about keeping you on your toes. The tension throughout this book has you on the edge of your seat.
Really enjoyed the love story that built right through this book to the epilogue. And boy what an ending.
First time reading these authors will definitely read more

What a fantastic read!
I enjoyed this book and I couldn't find any part that I didn't like. It grabbed my attention from the very beginning and kept me completely absorbed until the very end. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good plot along with their romance. This book had the best of both!

The dedication made me cry! This book was brilliant and I'm loving getting to know the guys!
After one night of passion between Devyn and Bolo she finds out she's pregnant. She's an independent woman the oldest of give girls and has a close relationship with her family. She's a fire investigator and loves her job.
When she lets Bolo knows she's pregnant he doesn't hesitate to show up. In fact he's wanted to see more of her since their night together. Bolo is a veteran and in the Saint Outlaws MC. He loves his blood brothers, his mom and dad, and his club brothers. They are his family.
Devyn's pregnancy isn't all sunshine and rainbows and her story touches on things so many women go through. But she has a strong supportive boyfriend with Bolo by her side. I cannot wait to read the upcoming books, because I know this series is going to be another smash hit.
The glimpse of Butcher and Toxic was hilarious!!

In the previous books, members of the Saint's Outlaws start to find partners and build families. Bolo starts to feel like something is missing in his own life, so he is pleasantly surprised when his one night stand turns back up in his life giving him a chance at his own family. Watching Bolo and Devyn navigate their new relationship, was lovely. Especially with how well Bolo can read Devyn, taking things slowly for her, despite his own feelings. I enjoyed that this story not only had tension as the MC club is fighting an enemy, but also as Devyn faces a challenging pregnancy.
My favorite part of the book, besides how Bolo shows up for Devyn, was actually his brother Relay. The way he shows up for Bolo, Devyn and their baby was the sweetest. I cannot wait for Relay's story.
It was fun to get cameos from some of the author's other MC series.

All the feels!
Dev was a character I could really relate to in regards to running from her feelings for Bolo, who was a tremendous character and also who drove the plot live steadily. Although he was a member of a 1% MC, he embodied ALL the aspects of a real, good man. This book actually was less "MC" than others but was so powerful that I didn't want go put it down. As with many of Cole & Jensen books, lots of what you read is something similar to what they have lived through so the writing rings very true. Definitely a great book/series; just wish I didn't have to wait a whole year for the next book!

I always love coming back to my Arizona boys! It’s always so much fun to see different streets and landmarks incorporated into the series. Even past characters! I’m glad we got to know Bolo, Relay and the rest of their family. I have the feeling they’re going to be around a bit more. Devyn was also super sweet and I think her and her other sisters are going to be trouble.

4.25/5 stars
I adored this story. Bolo and Devyn are absolutely amazing together. They are such a sweetheart couple - with the baby’s story to me making this an even more special kind of love story.
But true to these authors you have action and some suspense

This was so good. The last few chapters were hard for me to read. It brought back some memories that were not so great but I am thankful that everything worked out as it should. So happy that Bolo and Dev got their hea. Now, onto Relay’s story 👏👏👏👏👏.

Bolo
Wow. What a beautiful, heartfelt, sad, happy, scary but oh so poignant story. As someone who has experienced the terror that these two went through without the support Bolo gives. This was truly beautiful. I am truly awed.

Words can’t express. Their relationship was unique from the beginning. Glad Bolo found his old Lady & Happily ever after with Devyn. I love the ending. How we got a glimpse into the future. It was beautiful. Can’t wait to see who captures Relays heart. I love seeing this softer side to him.

Good read
I just love this chapter of the is MC. I love that Cathleen has no cheating or OWD within her books. This book had lots of MC action in it which was written very well.
I loved Bolo and Dev, I especially loved their siblings and I am hoping to read more of them too. Continuing underlying plot spilling into the next book.
The prologue was lovely and made me smile.

📖Genre & Tropes📖 : romance biker x suspense plot x accidental pregnancy plot x ex military badass hero x fire investigator strong heroine x vigilante biker x forced proximity x family found x spicy
Une romance de bikers étonnamment mignonne et pleine de rebondissements !
OK j’avoue après la fin du précédent tome, j’étais HYPER curieuse de l’histoire derrière Bolo et la femme qu’il avait mis enceinte … Et j’ai absolument adoré l’histoire avec Devyn !
Ce tome est un peu différent des autres parce que, même s’il y a une intrigue avec les retombées de l’organisation criminelle du précédent tome qui cherche à se venger, l’intrigue principale tourne autour de la grossesse compliquée de Devyn et étonnamment, cela ne m’a pas du tout dérangée, j’ai même plutôt apprécié ce changement de style !
On suit l’évolution de couple Bolo / Devyn avec des débuts un peu compliqués (ou comme Bolo peut convaincre une héroïne très indépendante qui travaille chez les pompiers, un peu méfiante et terriblement enceinte de lui faire confiance tout en sachant qu’il fait partie d’un groupe de bikers « justiciers » ???) et on les voit naviguer au milieu des problèmes de grossesse, certains normaux d’autres beaucoup plus inquiétants … Et j’ai adoré ! J’ai aimé voir leur relation évoluer lentement, prendre plus de profondeur et suivre avec stress et anxiété les différentes étapes de la grossesse de Dev !
Est-ce que je veux que Sophie trouve son propre biker ?? OUI OUI OUI !
Est-ce que je veux un tome sur Relay ?? OUUUUUUI !
Bref, une romance biker pleine de tensions mais aussi de beaux sentiments que j’ai li avec grand plaisir !
⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐~⭐
A surprisingly sweet biker romance full of twists and turns !
Okay, after the ending of the previous book, I was SUPER curious about the story behind Bolo and the woman he’d gotten pregnant ... And I absolutely loved the story with Devyn !
This installment is a bit different from the others because, even though there’s a plotline involving the fallout from the criminal organization in the previous book seeking revenge, the main focus is on Devyn’s complicated pregnancy. Surprisingly, that didn’t bother me at all—I actually really enjoyed the change of pace !
We follow the evolution of Bolo and Devyn’s relationship, which gets off to a rocky start (how does Bolo convince a fiercely independent fire investigator—who’s wary of him and heavily pregnant with his child—to trust him, knowing he belongs to a group of vigilante bikers?), and we watch them navigate pregnancy issues—some routine, others far more worrying ... And I loved it ! I enjoyed watching their relationship slowly deepen and evolve, and I was on the edge of my seat—anxious and stressed—as we followed the various stages of Dev’s pregnancy !
Do I want Sophie to find her own biker? YES, YES, YES !
Do I want a book about Relay? YEEEEEES !
In short, a biker romance full of tension but also beautiful emotions—I read it with great pleasure !

Knowing that Cathleen and Frank had firsthand knowledge at how scary a tough pregnancy can be along with a preemie child stuck in a NICU makes the journey that Bolo and Devyn go through so much more personal. Normally I can picture a lot of the situations that are painted with the words I'm reading but the entirety of the hospital part was very tough to get through.
Besides the hard part near the end of the book there was many funny parts mixed throughout. The scenes of Norman and Flir, omg, they just keep getting better and better. That is one smart rottie to know to pick on the one person who would have the biggest issue with him and continue to work on Flir to wear Flir down into loving Norm.
Another was Butcher whistling the Goon song and how Toxic was now trying to reel Butcher back in. I laughed at that part rather hard because I started singing it in my head. Also the panic the Bolo had trying to plan dates that turned into a whole club affair was quite comical.
***Spoilers***
The twist with Bowers was very surprising because that totally came out of left field. Up until he tried to kill 3 people, I really thought he was just after the club for being who they were not because the Collective wants them dead.
The biggest surprise was Relay. I knew he would be there for Bolo and in turn Devyn and Collin but the number of times he willingly walked away from the possibility of killing someone to he there for his family was jaw dropping. Relay in some ways is a lot like Butcher is. It took time for Butcher to be there for the Old Ladies and the kids but he got there. Relay showed up for the Old Lady and kid that matter most to him. (I can't wait for his story) I really hope that Relay continues to show more and more of who he was before what happened happened.
You can tell that Bolo truly loves not only his MC brothers but also his actual family. He now knows what true happiness is and can't wait for the rest to catch up, especially Relay. He hopes that having someone to trust, love, and confide in will help bring Relay back to the living and back to family.

This was very good. I enjoyed it and it gave me the feels in places.
I really, really LOVED that they both came from a 2 parent close loving family with siblings. I get so tired and bored with reading about MCs who have all this childhood trauma from broken or non existent families. It's like all some authors know how to write about is trauma and porn.
The only reason it was not 5 stars was that Devyn who did not want to go out with Bolo at first because he was a manwhore and biker proceeded to then get drunk and readily spread her legs for him on the first date, smh. I lost all respect for her. I would have much rather seen them date, get to know each other, develop a relationship, emotional intimacy BEFORE having sex and getting pregnant.

In terms of the continuation of the MC plot, not much has happened. However, this is a deeply personal book to the author and her spouse and it shows. The writing is so different in the truly emotional part of the book, but I liked it. I hope the author’s family is doing well.
