Wayward Saints MC #5

Wayward Trouble

Rate this book
Jase Insico
Being a twin sucks. Watching my brother’s slowly fall in love sucks even worse.
One party and things change; no not like Brantley’s story, our story is different. Just like the girl I fell in love with while she was under my protection.
I made a lot of mistakes with her, but then again I wouldn’t take any of them back if the outcome would have been any different. She was worth everything I had to go through.
She was trouble with a capital T, but I wouldn’t change one minute with her.

Wynter Larsen
I never expected to get caught sneaking into some guys apartment. Truth be told, I’m glad I did.
I found the man of my dreams even if I didn’t believe it for myself for a while. Jase wasn’t like everyone else. He believed me and protected me no matter the cost.
He went up against his own family and the man who had been after me for weeks. He was my saving grace and I could never thank him enough for what he did.

WAYWARD TROUBLE is the fifth book in the Wayward Saints MC series. K. Renee is a new author for me, but I quickly added her to my list of favorite authors. She has created some unique characters and she is a great story teller.

Jase Insico is one of four brothers, and also a twin. All of the brothers are gorgeous, and they appear to be falling in love quickly and leaving Jase to live the wild and crazy bachelor life he craves. Love them and leave them was more his speed. They all are also members of the motorcyle club, Wayward Saints, along with their father.

Jase spends a short time in jail and returns home to find that someone had been living in his apartment. That someone was Wynter. Wynter was on the run from her brother-in-law, who was threatening her life. When Jase discovered her hiding out in his apartment, she tried to run, but he stopped her. After learning about her situation, he called his brothers to his apartment to scare her brother-in-law, Saxton, into leaving her alone. Saxton is dreadfully dangerous and Wynter is smart to fear him. He works with a group that kidnaps and sells women, and he had already killed her fiancé because she refused to follow his orders.

For some reason that Jase can't explain, he feels very protective of Wynter and claims her as his ole' lady to keep her protected by the Saints. Jase starts to feel so many emotions he isn't use to. Could he possibly be starting to have feelings for Wynter? Could she be doing the same? As Jase and the Saints prepare to protect Wynter and help her to keep her sister and niece safe, an unlikely love story begins for Jase and Wynter.

Wynter is much different from the other women Jase has known. He knows that she is trouble for him, but he can't stop his feelings for her. Wynter still has feelings for her deceased fiancé, but Jase is slowly making her forget. He knows that he must take it slow if he ever wants to get through to her. As they set off on their journey of keeping Wynter protected, they start to experience a chemistry that gets stronger every day. Will Wynter be able to forget the past and trust Jase? Will Jase be able to abandon his confirmed bachelorhood?

This is a series you will most definitely want to read. Please read them in order and don't miss any of the brothers' stories.

Jase Insico has watched his friends and his twin brother fall in love before his eyes. That life is not what he is looking for in his future. He plans on continuing to live his wild and crazy life. No ties to a woman. Just the loyalty of his club brothers and a different club whore every night. Until he falls in love with the girl he is supposed to protect. Jase finally finds the girl whose worth the risk.

Wynter Larsen thought she would be safe when she snuck into some guy’s apartment. He never seemed to be there so it was perfect. She got to hide out in a place they would never know to look for her. Then one day the guy who lives in the apartment catches her and she’s sure he will kick her to the curb. If he does her life will be in danger. To her surprise the sexy biker puts her under his protection instead and life for Wynter will never be the same.

Jase and Wynter were a good match from the start. Jase needed someone who needed him and Wynter filled that roll. Their relationship evolves as Jase puts her under the club’s protection claiming her as his old lady. Wynter has no idea what this means at first but manages to learn as they go. In the beginning I couldn’t relate to Wynter and found her a little bit flat. However, by the last half of the book she starts to get stronger and fights for herself. Jase was sweet and sexy and I loved the way he cared for her so much even though he thought he wouldn’t be the type to settle down. It was great to read about the other characters in the series. When Wynter’s life is in danger they all rally to keep her safe, even though the whole club is threatened. Dom’s issue with the mother of his child is resolved. Henley and Cason are still going strong. I really like the characters in this MC series. They are truly a dysfunctional family who would do anything for each other. This wasn’t my favorite installment of the series I love Brantley and Gunner’s stories more but there was an HEA and an epilogue that will make you smile.

In this fifth installment of the Wayward Saints book, it's Jase's turn. Of course he falls instantly in love with Wynter, a girl on the run, however unlike every Saint before him, Jase took his time. K. Renee is a fan of the insta-love and I liked how this time around she shook things up a bit, keeping her readers on their toes. This review may spoil other books in the series.

Jase is the twin brother to Brantley, who is married to the Wayward Saints president's daughter, Anslie. First Brant, then Gunner, Dom and even the prez got an ol' lady and it's driving Jase nuts. He can't begin to imagine having a nagging woman at his side at all times. The club whores are much easier to deal with and they know where their place is. We learn Jase nothing but a big talker when he finds the damsel in distress Wynter hiding out in his place.

Wynter has found herself the victim of "the wrong place at the wrong time". After getting caught up in something she knows nothing about, she finds herself on the run afraid for her life, as well as the lives of her sister and niece. After finally being caught in Jase's apartment, Wynter doesn't know if she's gone from a bad to a worse situation.

After hearing Wynter's story, it isn't in Jase as a man, let alone a member of the MC to leave her alone to fend for herself. Taking on Wynter and all that comes with her is huge. Once all of the details are out, Jase has not only involved himself, but the entire MC and families. It's huge and seeing who is going to be left standing made Wayward Trouble quite the page turner.

The book is well written from dual points of view and a great addition to the series. Again,I was glad to see a different type of guy in Jase. Still loyal to the MC, but also doing whatever he has to save the girl.

4.5 star

I was pulled right into this story. The story has laughs, suspense, and heartbreak.

If you have not read the below I would recommend reading those books(s) first
Wayward Angel (Wayward Saints MC, #1)
Wayward Valentine (Wayward Saints MC #1.5)
Wayward Soul (Wayward Saints MC, #2)
Wayward Beginning (Wayward Saints MC #3)
Wayward Son (Wayward Saints MC, #4)

This is Jase and Wynter’s story. After seeing the other brothers in the club fall in love Jase is determined to avoid it at all costs. When he catches a woman in his apartment one day he wonders what has her hiding out. After hearing her story he vows to protect her. When he has to claim her the club is stunned when he steps right up and is willing to claim her with no problem. Jase feels like her has to protect her no matter what. The more he is around her the more he wants her. Can he prove to her he is in this for the long haul? Or will she want out after the danger has past? Just when they think they know everything more secrets are revealed and that could shatter everything Wynter knows. Can Jase protect her from everything and make her believe she is loved?

I felt I was able to connect with the characters and the story was a great read.

I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next story from this author.

Jason “Jase” Insico is the twin brother of Brantley Insico from the first Wayward Saints book. He is also the son of the MC’s VP. Over the last few years, he has watched one brother after another fall, in love that is. But to him there isn’t really a difference falling in love or falling from a bullet. He knows he will never be a one-woman man, although there is a small part of him that is jealous of what Brantley and Anslie have.

Ms. Renee has built an interesting cast of characters in her 6 book series (1.5 is a novella). Both the President and the Vice President of the MC have a large family, four boys each and the President has a daughter too. This makes it tricky to keep everyone straight at times. But since they all grew up together, they are more like an all boy version of Eight is Enough. In this book, Jase and Wynter fall in love incredibly fast, not my favorite plot but it, is fiction so I will overlook it. I see progress in Ms. Renee’s writing, but her characters still seem like they are trying TOO hard to be bad ass, again, it is fiction so I try to overlook it. I certainly like the series enough to have read the first 6 and will continue to follow this group of antiheroes on their journey. I give this book 3.5 stars with 3 hands down the pants.

Love this MC family!!

I have been waiting on Jase's story for awhile and K. Renee did not disappoint. Wayward Trouble is the fifth book in the Wayward Saints MC series and you need to read them in order to get the full effect of the series and you will want the full effect of these hot bikers. Jase Insisco likes the single life within the club. He enjoys all the perks including the club women. He swears he will never follow his twin brother's steps and claim a woman. Wynter Larsen is in need of protection in a big way from a very dangerous man. Fate brings her into the path of one of the most protective men, Jase. It's not long before the chemistry between the two is undeniable even though neither is looking for that something more.
This story flowed easily and was a fast read for me because I couldn't walk away from it. The balance of romance and mc action is evenly matched. I love the way the whole mc family is included and a family life outside the club was featured more in this book. Ms. Renee has a technique of writing that draws you into the story and makes you want more. Wayward Trouble has heart with a touch of bada**. Can't wait for the next book. Great job and great read.
I received an arc in exchange for a honest review.

   I have to say I think I may have a I think Jase may be new favorite in this series.  I think he may have stolen Brant's and Cason's spots. I'm so glad the Wayward boys were back. I've kind of missed them, even though it hasn't been that long since I've read a book in this series.


     I have to say I loved Jase in this book. I wasn't to sure about him going in. We haven't really gotten to know Jase in the other books. He's been a bit of a mystery. But I'm so glad we got to know him better. I liked seeing underneath his gruff exterior, that there was a sweeter softer side.


    I really liked Wynter in this book. Even though she finds herself in a situation that's out of her hand's. I found her to still be sweet, caring, loyal, strong and just a tad bit sassy. 


    I really enjoyed this book. And the Wayward boy's. As I said above I loved getting to know Jase better. I loved the relationship between Jase and Wynter, and the banter.


    I'm giving this book 4 stars out of 5!!!!!

While the MC life is dangerous, hard and not at all glamorous, one thing emerges clearly and that is the importance of those in the club to each other. The strength of family and that they will protect each other is laudable.

Wynter is hiding from her thug of a brother-in-law and chooses Jase's apartment as her hiding place. Jase doesn't hesitate in stepping up to the plate to protect her, no matter the cost to himself. Selfless actions for no other reason than no one deserves to be in fear of their life.

This is not for the faint-hearted, with the dirty mouths; violence; hot sex; and shocking revelations.

A great read with larger than life characters; a bad boy who is actually a gentleman under the tough and rough exterior; a girl who discovers her inner strength; and a family who has your back. A great way to warm you up on a cold winter's day.

HOLY CRAP, is really all I can say about Jase and Wynter's story. K. Renee knows how to spin a story and keep you sucked in!

Jase is fresh out of prison, when he sorta stumbles upon Wynter and decides he is going to put her under the MC's protection. Wynter is on the run, and is finding it very hard to trust anyone, when Jase announces that he is going to protect her and for her to trust him; it turns out to be a very tall order.

I want to say soooo much more, but I'm not giving spoilers! Just know I was hooked from chapter one. I can't wait to see what K. Renee comes up with next for this series. Drama, off the charts sexy times, and a sexy biker or two this story was everything I needed!! I give this 5 stars.

Jase the twin who's swears to never be pussy whipped like his twin and other brothers is needing a time out from his brothers and heads to his apartment. When he arrives he realizes someone has been there. After his nice hot shower he realizes there is a blond standing there staring scared. After some confusion and lots of questions he realizes she needs him. Wynter is scared but a fighter, Jase must do whatever he can to protect her. Her fiance has just been killed by the same man who's trying to get to her. Wynter isn't looking for love and Jase doesn't want it either. In order to protect her he must claim her as his, what starts as protection quickly changes to love.

Jase is a member of the wayward saints mc. After a small stint in jail he arrives home to find something in his apartment. What does this big biker dude do when he finds what that something is? Will be protect it at any cost? 
Wynter is a girl with a troubled past who just needed a place to stay. She didn't expect to find a guy to come to her rescue. Will she accept his help? 
This book continunes on the wayward saints journey. There is still a lot going on and I can't wait to find out. Jase is Brantley's twin brother. I like Jase a lot! Brantley though is still my number one twin. ;) as always K Renne knocks it out of the park. 5 stars

I love the Wayward Saints series and Wayward Trouble was no different. Jase is Brantley's twin and has always been against settling down with one woman. Then, Wynter comes into his life unexpectedly and he finds out what all the fuss is about. They definitely have a lot of obstacles to overcome since her brother in law has a price on her head and this brings a lot of trouble to the club. I never thought I would say this but I might actually like Jase better than Brant, and that's definitely saying something. I love all the books in this series and can't wait for more!

Gotta love Jase!

Another great book to a great series! The Wayward Saints are one of my favorite MC series and Wayward Trouble did not disappoint. This is Jase and Wynter's story.
Jase is one of my favorite characters and I've been waiting on his story. Wynter is shy, sweet but also tough. She is perfect for him. She will bring trouble to the MC but Jase and the guys are well in control.
I loved the book and I love this series, can't wait for the next book.

Wynter breaks into Jase’s apartment while he’s in jail – and the story starts from there. She’s running from her brother in law who killed her fiancé because she knows too much about his business. You’ll be surprised by the outcome of this couples story.

This series keeps getting better and better. I liked Jase but I couldn’t understand his feelings of dislike towards Anslie in the first chapter. He was going on about the ‘’hell’’ she put his twin brother through. BUT it was Brantley that walked away from Anslie in the first place. He was the one that put her through hell. Jase also had anger towards his twin but it never said why? The other thing that had my head muddled was that when Jase first met Wynter, she had long blonde hair and he seen her as a little girl, he didn’t seem to be attracted to her yet when she died her hair bright red and cut it to shoulder length he wanted her fancied her and wanted her with a passion, she was his ‘’one’’. Although I wasn’t keen on Jase at first he soon grew on me, I loved how patient he was with Wynter, and how determined he was to protect her and little Carsyn.
One last thing: I found myself really wanting to punch Brantley in this book. Yes I like him still but when he was fighting with Jase and saying that they shouldn’t protect a random girl really annoyed me. After all it was a different story when it was his old lady that was in hiding from her abusive ex.


When Jase is released from prison, the last thing he expects is to have a strange young woman to turn up inside his apartment. Wynter Larsen is on the run from her evil brother in law. When she found an apartment to hide in that nobody seemed to be taking care of, she thought her luck was in. Imagine her surprise when she arrives back at the apartment one day to find a hot man getting out of the shower. When Jase realises the trouble that Wynter is in he decides to do everything in his power to keep her safe, even if it means claiming her as his old lady. When Wynter changes her hair colour and style in order to disguise herself, Jase realises how pretty she is and soon finds himself falling for her. But with danger fast approaching and a handful of near death moments for the club, will Jase be able to keep Wynter safe and get rid of the trouble that surrounds them?

Loved it

They just keep getting better. Loved that Jase got a taste of karma right after he was busting on Dom about being whipped. Fabulous that he took on the care of Carsyn too. Must read!

An intense, romantic suspense that will keep you wanting more! This story pulled me in right from the start, and held on through the end. It's intriguing storyline, characters you can't help but love, a sweet and sexy romance, betrayal, secrets and lies, angst, intense situations, and surprise twists create a fantastic story that you won't want to miss!

Jase is self-proclaimed player that has no intention or interest in settling down. Wynter is on the run from her brother-in-law and other dangers that she doesn't know about, and does the only thing she can to stay alive, keeps moving. When they run into one another, literally, neither of them know what to think or do about the other. She tries to run again, but he feels the need to protect her.

When sparks start flying between them, as well as the anger within the club, what will Jase do in order to protect her? Will she be able to get over her past in order for them to have a chance? Will Jase giv up his player status to go after his something special? Or will the dangerous situations be more than they can handle? Will they get the HEA that they both deserve?

K. Renee is one of my favorite authors, and this series has become one of my favorites as well. This series is full of sweet and sexy romances, adrenaline fueled action, intense circumstances, suspense, and smokin' hot sex that will leave you breathless! It's definitely a must read series of all MC lovers!
I strongly recommend this book, series, and fantastic author!

This is the fifth book in the Wayward Saints MC series. Jase Insico is Brantley's twin brother and son of the Vice President of the Wayward Saints. He swears he'll never settle down with a chick like his twin did or Dom or his Prez. Wynter Larsen is running for her life scared of her brother in law finding her. When her parents died she found out she had a sister named Kyleigh and the two of them became close. Kyleigh married Saxton and shortly after they had a daughter named Carson. Saxton is a twisted and dangerous man he killed Wynter's fiancé, shooting him and leaving him to die in his kitchen. Wynter scopes out an apartment building and when she notices an apartment that no one has come or gone from she breaks into it so she can hide there. Jase hasn't been to his apartment in a while cause he's been in jail with Dom for attempted murder (they were set up by dirty cops & a rival MC). When he finally gets released thanks to his Prez's girlfriend and their attorney, Henley he is anxious to get home, shower and sleep in his bed. He doesn't expect to walk out of the bathroom wearing only a towel and bump into a strange girl who certainly shouldn't be in his apartment. After questioning her he finds out that she's scared for her life and hiding from her brother in law. He doesn't know why but after she tells him everything he feels a deep need to protect her. When he talks to his club about protecting her they are reluctant at first so he claims her as his Old Lady.

Wynter is a girl with a troubled past who just needed a place to stay. She saw this apatment empty so why not stay there for free right? She didn't expect to find a guy to come to her rescue. Will she accept his help?

I love this series! This group of totally alpha motorcycle men drive me crazy. WT focuses on Jase and Wynter. Jase is adamant about remaining single until he finds Wynter in his apartment. He immediately takes a shine to her and her to him. Wynter is being hunted by her human trafficking brother-in-law. Jase decides to claim her in order to keep her safe. Author's writing is good. Character build up was a little fast. Sex scenes are hot. Character development is great. Can't wait to read about the rest of the alpha's in this group.

Story has no cliffhanger and does have and HEA.

Wynter is homeless and on the run from her horrible brother in law. She finds herself breaking into a dirty apartment, cleaning it up and staying there. Jase is a man whore. When Jase comes home from his get out of jail/ welcome home party to finds wynter in his apartment. He isn't one for relationships beyond friends with benefits, but finds himself claiming Wynter as his old lady and saying things he never thought he would.
I love the way K. Renee writes. You can vividly see the story and watch it unfold like a movie. *reread of series for review*
