She was going to kill one of my brothers... so I was sent to stop her - by any means necessary.
This is the story of how she ended up my old lady, wearing my ink, and wearing a damn engagement ring.
Someone's taken out a hit on one of our members. As the club's enforcer, it's my job to stop the killer and I'm ready to do whatever it takes... until I come face to face with the assassin. Harlee is five feet four of hot-headed trouble with curves that won't quit. One look into those green eyes and I know I can't kill her... but I can't let her go, either. To save her and save the club, I do the only thing I can: put a ring on her finger.
But now I've lied to my brothers and I've got a woman I'm crazy about sleeping in my bed. Our relationship is fake but the way I feel about her is real... and so is the danger we're in. We're both now targets of a rival MC just as a crucial deal for Back Down Devil MC is underway. I want Harlee to be my woman for keeps, whoever I have to kill to make that happen.
I have read every book in this series and they all have ranged from 3 to 4 stars. The book has a large number of predominantly 5 star reviews, some 4 star reviews and very few under 4 stars. So it seems like a lot of readers loved the book. I just couldn't get into the book. The plot was a little unbelievable to me and the hero's dialogue just turned me off. I have enjoyed most of the books in this series and will most likely try the next one that comes out since they are available on KU, but this one just didn't do it for me at all.
If you are reading the Kindle edition, go to 99% first and read the author's note so you will understand more of what this book is about. This is especially important if you have been reading this series all along. I was expecting another book with a guy from the usual group.
This book is a transition from the familiar Frelen chapter (books 1-9) to the Daurian chapter, the one with the insane, bad Prez involved in Book 9. It's jarring if you have read the whole series like I have and none of the names except Trev's were familiar. It would help if the author had put something as a clear note about this in the beginning of the book because I found myself back-tracking previous books to figure this out.
Otherwise, it's sort of the very same setup: there is a Blaine-like nasty/dirty/supposed-to-be-funny guy but this time his name is Cash. There is Trev the new Prez, who is sort of like Miller in personality, but married (see Book 9). There are guys named Trent, Duke, Jasper (the VP), Kye, Max, Hudson, Austin, Xavier, Tristan, and Cade. Trent is the Enforcer (aka the Monster) and I guess he's equivalent to an SAA since I didn't notice anyone else getting that title.
So basically, Trev is the new chapter Prez now that the previous double dealing one, Ripper, is dead. (That story is in Book 9.) Trev has a mess on his hands due to dirty deals Ripper was doing behind the back of the club, but they are still left holding the bag to make all of that right. It involves a rival club that was stiffed for a weapons purchase, Irish mafia that now has the weapons but will sell them back for cash and conditions, some roving Russian fight club guys who also have whores and booze, a rogue patch named Draxton from the stiffed rival club that is somehow involved doing his own deals in the middle and wants Harlee back, and Trent's dirty dealing father that the Irish guys want knocked off... by Trent.
There's a lot of fighting and murder in this one, which I liked, although it was difficult to figure out who all the players were. Frankly, some of it made little sense, especially the last scene involving Draxton and how he was scheming with all of these other groups, but then one of their snipers takes out Draxton... wait, what? These people are involved somehow, then save the day with their sniper, but no one says or does anything about that? Just too convoluted.
There is a cameo from some of the Frelen guys.
This book is mainly about Trent and Harlee. I don't want to say much about them so that this isn't a total spoiler review. I wasn't really invested in that particular romance at all, anyway. So, dud romance in this book, imho.
There are just too many groups and confusion in this book. There was an MC called the Hell Five that was talked about a bit in the beginning as being bad guys, but then they are totally dropped.
So, sorry, but just barely 2 stars this time. I'll still read the next one and hope it's better organized, not so chaotic and with a better romance pair.

Ohhh my gosh!!!!!! I sooo freaking loved this book! I love all BDD MC books!!! I while reading the book i was so hooked i could hardly do anything else.... The suspence was killing me and the love building between Trent and Harlee was amazing! The plot was breathtaking with all those twists and turns and the sex was pantie drenching! If you havet read this series then do! I was really thinking that the author should start seperating the BDD books in Frelern and Daurian charter....that way we would have to wait for two BDD books! A must must must must read !!!

Lies are told, lines are crossed, and lives are in danger.,is there anyway they can all make it out alive and win their hearts in tact
Once again London Casey has written a book that will blow you away. I devoured this book and loved every second of it. Filled with action suspense and some seriously alpha bad butt bikers An Outlaw Monster is a book you do not want to miss. I love so many if these guys from the BDD Series and Trent is no exception. I loved every second of him and I also really liked the character of Harlee. Stuck in a bad situation with the BDD rival club Night Souls MC she's not even sure she can do what they want her to do. Saved by Trent, wanted dead by his MC, and in deep crap with Night Souls MC Harlee in in for the adventure and fight if her life. I so don't not want to spoil anything about this book for anyone and am afraid I'll give something away. for me it's a must Ed and one if my favorite in the entire series.
If you have never tried a London Casey book your really missing out. She has written some of the best MC books I've read.
I received and ARC in exchange for an honest review. I absolutely loved this book! This is Trent and Haylee’s story. As with all the other Back Down Devil MC books, the men are rough, foul mouthed, and as tough as nails. But underneath they are protective, loyal, possessive, and loving. The chemistry between Trent and Haylee is scorching and the sex scenes hot. No spoilers from me though!! This is a really well written story, and the readers are enthralled from the beginning. Would not hesitate to recommend this authors work! Looking forward to finding out what she brings to us next.
Another great MC book by London Casey! Full of suspense, with a plot good enough to keep you turning the pages until you're finished. Her characters are interesting and complex. No grammar or editing issues. Can't wait for the next book!
Dnf 61% just got bored with it, the story just plodded and plodded and plodded along.
however what was really annoying and unrealistic was the whole premis of the storyline.
so we are supposed to believe that a club girl- not quite a whore, who attempts to kill another member of a mc under instruction from her own mc, is protected by the enforcer of said club who makes her his old ladY? WHY? i mean why would he do that? there is no insta love, no insta connection, yeah he's attracted to her briefly but would he go to such lengths for a woman there is nothing with? it just doesnt ring true. i just kept asking myself why would he go to all this trouble. its not like there was love at first sight and he had a burning need to have the h. she would have just been killed and that was it. so i can understand duke's reaction though not the rest of the mc who again just blindly accept her. no remotely mc biker at all.
the whole storyline based on this was silly, didnt ring true and as such there was no substance to the story, it was weak and unconvincing.
also the characters were one dimensional and i especially had absolutely no connection with the very very weak and annoying fmc.
nope not for me. totally unrealistic - mediocre at best
This is a new series set in the Daurian chapter of Back Down Devil MC to which Trev is now President. There were many situations dealt out in this story. We even get to meet some members of what is essentially the Irish Mafia.
Trent meets Harlee when she is being forced to kill his fellow MC brother, Duke. As she is about to poison Duke, Trent is forced to save her. Neither realize the twists and turns that are coming.
I truly did enjoy this first book in this series. I loved the characters and she really did paint a great picture. Now I'm hooked and have to go and read the being. Ha I love finding a great writer!
London Casey is the best damn MC writer of all times. I have read many MC books and I have yet to come across anybody who can touch her writing of the badass Back Down Devils MC. This book only proves that London Casey is an artist in her right. She takes a charter of the Frelen Back Down Devil MC and writes the first book with AWESOME cunningness. After reading Relentless the last book in the Frelen Charter I didn’t think she could do it again, but damn if she didn’t. “An Outlaw Monster” will make you laugh, cry, scream, holler, and definitely you will want to help them KICK ASS!!!! That is a sign of a good author/writer and I look for this in a book. Can I feel any emotions as I read? The story line takes you on one hell of ride with Trev and Harlee and the Back Down Devil MC Daurian Charter. London knows how to get in there and make her characters the bad ass biker boys and their woman just as strong and bad ass!!! I totally recommend this book to mature readers 18 years of age or older because of the explicit sex, violence, and dirty mouths. If my mother was in these books she would wash their mouths out with SOAP!!! While reading this book play close attention to the character, Cash!!! He is Hilarious as hell. I loved him.
This book of the Daurian Charter of the Back Down Devils MC begins just after Trev was voted in as President of the charter. Sit back and enjoy, because you are in for a hell of a ride!
Trent is the muscle man for the Daurian Charter of the Back Down Devils MC, or also known as the enforcer. Most people call him the monster because he is the one the go to when someone needs to die, be interrogated, scared/roughed up and he would never bat an eye. He also was responsible for keeping the VP and Prez alive when out of the club. The club found out that a rival club wanted a brother, Duke murdered and were sending someone to do the job. The BDD MC just didn’t know who. Trent’s job was to follow Duke scope the bar and watch for any suspects that could have been sent to kill Duke and then take them out. That was until he came face to face with the assassin. He could not believe they sent a woman to do the job. Nor could he get over how her body made his body react. He knew right off that she hot headed and had luscious curves that just wouldn’t quit. Even though he stops her before she actually gives Duke the poison, he knows he can’t let her, nor would he kill her. In order to save her and his club he knew he would have to be drastic about his actions. There is a big deal going down and the BDD MC had to make sure that everything they did was right on the spot. They had no room for error. Can Trent keep Harlee safe? Can Trent keep his club safe? Will Trent be able to trust Harlee?
Harlee is not exactly a member of the Night Soul MC, but she worked for them as a waitress for the Night Souls waiting on the bikers and the business men in a bikini. She then had to clean up the gratuity. Somehow she wound up at the club house and then started to spend too much time with Daxton, a patched in member of the Night Souls MC. She didn’t even like him because he was ruthless and vile. On the day she intended to leave, the Night Soul Prez took Harlee into the meeting room and show her pictures of the Back Down Devils MC and showed her one picture in particular and told he she was kill him. The night she went to the bar where she would poison Duke, was the same night she met “The Monster.” Just as she was trying to decide if she could kill a human being who fought for our country, “The Monster” stepped in to stop her. She knew then that her life was never going to be the same. After Duke started a fight and some other thugs came in with machine guns Duke and Trent took her out the back with them and they got the motorcycles and left. The club wanted her dead, Trent wanted her alive. Who will the battle of whether or not Harlee can be trusted?
No Spoilers. ARC free book given for an honest review.
How can this be? You would think that the Back Down Devil MC has already run through all of the hot, badass guys and their women. Well, you thought wrong! Trev had moved to the Daurian chapter of the BDD MC to take over the presidency and that’s where we run into another group of bikers that I know we won’t get enough of.
Trent is the enforcer for the BDD Daurian chapter and has earned the name “Monster”. His years growing up with(out) the parents he had helped form the monster that no one was able to handle. NOBODY messed with Trent…until Harlee. Trent met Harlee as she was being forced by rival biker mc, Night Soul, trying to poison one of Trent’s brothers, Duke. What would you normally do with someone trying to kill one of your brothers? Kill them of course. Trent took Harlee and made her tell him her story as to why she would do this and just what did she know about Night Soul especially after finding out she was an old lady to Night Soul’s, Daxton. After gathering the intel you would think that was the time for the monster to come out and take care of club business…nope, not then neither. There was something about Harlee that had Trent protecting her. For now anyway. He knew eventually that the order was going to come down from Trev to handle business and get rid of Harlee. But would he actually be able to do this especially since they were spending more and more time together? He had one hell of a time trying to protect her from the guy she was supposed to poison, Duke.
Duke had no problem killing Harlee so more than once Duke and Trent went to battle with each other with of course the monster winning out each time because that was what Trent did best. No attachments, no feelings; that’s how you were able to deal out the mc’s justice. So, beside the chemistry between Trent and Harlee, which Trent was trying to fight, what finally brought him to his knees (literally), what was it that made Trent offer a ring to Harlee when everyone least expected it? Was this just a ploy in order to keep Harlee around for a bit or did Trent really want to make Harlee his and his alone? Would a monster outlaw like Trent be able to reign himself in and actually commit to a relationship even when that someone tried killing one of his brothers or was this a set up by the Night Soul to take down the BDD MC?
This is one hot and dirty biker read that Ms. James has come up with again. I have to say that there isn’t one of her biker books that weren’t great so if you haven’t made yourself acquainted with the bad boys of the Back Down Devil MC do yourself a favor and pick them up and get reading!

•Family I can never get enough of their stories!! The Back Down Devil MC just keeps growing and as we see more into it, we see how the inside of an MC is TRUELY ran! It's all about FAMILY!! They may me rough and tough on the outside, but for the most part they're teddy bears on the inside. They'll protect & take a bullet for not only their Prez, but their family. Most people only see the outlaw part of an MC, because that's what they want to show outward to protect what's closest to the cut, their hearts-their family, and they'll take their last breath to do it! This is Trent and Harlee's story. Harlee is trying to figure out a way to get away from the Night Soul MC she's found herself embedded with. She wanted to be safe and have a chance to make some money and survive, but the second they got their teeth into her, she was screwed. They make her take one of their own to the hospital after he'd been shot by one of the Back Down Devil's their rival MC. Night Soul's VP Gunner has told her she's going to kill who he tells her to kill, or he's going to kill her. Harlee has to kill one of Back Down Devil MC, their rivalry by poisoning him. Trent is Back Down Devil MC's muscle, the enforcer, they call him the monster because of the way he takes care of business. Night Soul MC has put a hit out on Duke, when or how will they strike? It's Trent's job to protect Duke, he's outside the club where Duke plays poker, waiting to see if he can see what their plan is. While looking through his binoculars he spots Harlee standing outside the club, he hears Rocco and Gunner of Night Soul ride up, they hand her a vial and then ride away. Trent now knows she's there to poison Duke, but he can tell Harlee isn't a trained killer. He's not the type that makes plans he just acts. This time he's not sure how to act, he's also distracted because the monster in his pants wants a piece of the action as well. Will Harlee slip the poison into Duke's drink while Trent is fantasizing about her or will he kill her like he's supposed to? Trent attempts to get inside information about Night Soul from Harlee, will this save her life, or will his Prez still make the call that she has to go. Will he be able to do it? There's a whole lot more going on than just the hit out on Duke, this book is filled with lots of surprises, action- in and out of the bedroom, love, hate and friendship. You get to see a few members of the Frelan chapter as well as an awesome start of Back Down Devil's Daurian chapter. I cannot wait to see who's story is next! Due to sexual content this novel is recommended for readers 18 and older. I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review!
This is the first book in this series I've read and I'm definitely going to go back and read the others now. The writing of this book reminds me of Nicole Snow's Deadly Pistols MC Series--an MC full of alpha males that don't care what you may think about their foul language or their fast and hard way of life. For them downtime involves whiskey and women and lots of it.
I knew this book was for a new charter of the Back Down Devil MC which is probably the only reason I agreed to read something 10 books in. It did not disappoint! Trent is the enforcer in this charter and they are cleaning up the mess left behind by their former president. A mess that includes bad dealings with a rival MC, Night Soul. Night Soul is an even rougher MC in that they don't care how their women get treated--enter Harlee. She took a job as waitress and somehow ended up deep in with the Night Souls. Now they are trying to use her to take out a member of Back Down; only thing is, Back Down finds out about the hit and are ready for it. The only thing they weren't ready for was for it to be executed by the beautiful Harlee.
As Trent goes to intercept Harlee, things go down that throw everyone's plans right out the window. Harlee knows who Trent is, and is more than willing to offer him anything if he can get her away from the Night Souls. But can Trent really trust the person that was sent to take one of his brothers out?
Lots of suspense in this book that's for sure! You've got the two rival MCs going at each other, add in some Irish and Russian mobsters and what more do you want? But of course you've got some hot, hot, hot scenes with Harlee and Trent that will definitely keep you turning the pages. Loved the characters and loved the action. Couldn't wait to see how it would all play out in the end. Great read!!
**I was given an ARC in exchange for an honest review**
I received this for a honest review. The author did a wonderful job. I just love MC books and I have to say Trent made the perfect bad boy.
Trent was an enforcer. He was know as the monster. He would lay down his life for his brothers. He had no fear and when he fought and when he fought he did it well. The last thing Trent wanted was to be tied down to a woman. He believed in loving them and leaving them. Well we know how that has worked so far fro the Back Down Devil MC.
Alexa was way in over her head. It all started where she needed money. She got in with the wrong guy and now she was sinking fast. She hated that she stooped so low as to get with Daxton. He was mean and he was cruel. He truly did not care about her. He just love the fact that she was one more thing he could control.
When Alexa got involved with the Night Souls she never dreamed she would asked to be a killer. The Night Soul were the scum of the earth and they were trying to kill off the Back Down Devil MC members one by one.
I have to say though this book was about Trent and Alexa I feel in love with Daniel. As you are reading the book and learning about each member trust me when I say you will see parts of Daniel that girls would fall in love with, hum looking forward to a future book on him. Crossing my fingers here.
There is danger all around. Trent is doing everything to keep Alexa safe. The Back Down Devil MC want her dead and Daxton wants her dead. Trent will find that he is having feelings that he thought he would never have for another woman ever again and it scared him.
There is so much that happens in the book and you will stay on the edge of your seat. There is even a few hot and steamy parts, okay more then a few..LOL Totally loved the story.
My journey with the BDDMC series started completely by curiosity. I read 2 to 3 books a week,all different genres. I had previously read some MC books. Some I enjoyed,others I found boring,with no attachment to the characters I was reading about. Then I read the first BDDMC book and I was hooked. I completely devoured the whole series. I, like many thought that Viper's Kiss was the last book,but then came Ruthless Hold and it held me once again to BDDMC. I'm now connected to Casey on Facebook and newsletter,yeah have to know when that next book is coming. Now about An Outlaw Monster.. where can I get one? All I can say is Trent is my kind of monster. The club enforcer,all alpha male(with a good heart when it comes to the woman he loves),fierce,scary and will take you out if you go against his brothers or will do it to protect his brothers. He was the perfect mix. Harlee,caught up somewhere she didn't want to be but life had dealt her that hand. She accepted her fate,was strong,a little scared but hey when you're caught in the middle of 2 MC's who wouldn't be. She could throw back out what was thrown at her. Would the monster eat her or keep her? You have to read to see because I don't do spoilers. Another win for Casey in this book. I couldn't swipe my kindle fast enough because the action,suspense and war in the MC was all there. I will patiently wait for the next BDDMC(hurry up,lol) because when I read these books I feel like I'm right there in the MC world. Also great that some members from the previous BDDMC appeared in this book. Missing out if you pass up this book.
I was so excited to hear that Casey was continuing her BDD MC series with the men of the Daurian charter. For a refresher, The Daurian charter, is the Charter sexy Trev took over as Prez. As Trev settles in as the new Position of course the danger just follows. We wouldn't have it any other way, who doesn't want to read about a Sexy Biker saving the fiesty h. This is Trent The Enforcer aka Monster of BDD MC and the lovely Harlee's story and it's a juicy one. London holds no punches. Harlee is set up by BDD MC 's rival the Night Soul MC to kill Duke a table member of BDD. Well Harlee never ends up taking Duke out she does end up at the Sexy Alpha Enforcers house so he can keep her safe, keep his brothers safe and get her story. Trent pulls the truth out of Harlee and she pulls every emotion he wasnt capable of showing . This story takes us on a journey with two beautiful souls trying to find those missing pieces of themselves. Will Trent and Harlee find their HEA?? Does Trent unleash the "Monster" on Harlee and The Night Souls? hmm.... No spoilers This story will take you though every emotion and still keep the smile on your face. I loved Trent's character even though he could be two different people he was amazing with Harlee. Harlee is one tough chickie, she keeps her cool but she also is just trying to stay alive. I highly recommend this series AND if you missed out of the boys of previous books no worries start at An Outlaw Monster and then go back and meet the sexy bad boys from the "Mother"charter. Happy Reading. I received this book as an ARC for an honest review.
This is one of those books where you probably need to read the books in the series that precedes it, although the reviews say it's a stand alone. I had to read the first 3 chapters a few times just to keep all of the characters straight!
I did enjoy the book but I did have to hang in there to figure it out, I think I was about 20% into the book before I really understood enough about what was going on to enjoy it. This is a story about an outlaw MC member, Trent, he is the enforcer in his club and is known as "the Monster". The heroine is a young woman named Harlee, who gets roped into killing a member of Trent's MC bumpy a rival MC. She doesn't succeed and that results in both the Back Down Devils and their enemies looking to "erase" Harlee. Trent ends up trying to protect her by suggesting she become his old lady, which means the club has to protect her. There are lots of potential obstacles to this plan while they are trying to figure out their relationship, plus deal with external threats to the club from a multitude of sources.
Sometimes it's hard to follow who the bad guys are and what they have against the Back Down Devil MC, again it would probably help if you read the other books by the author first. But I liked the book bc the hero and heroine were really different. At times the book was funny, scary and it definitely had juicy sex scenes,,although towards the end of the book I thought there were too many sex scenes.
While I ordered the book that precedes this one, I doubt that I will go further back in the series than that. Enjoyable but you have to work hard to get the plot and keep the characters straight while reading.
An Outlaw Monster is the first book that I've read in the Back Down Devil MC series and I can tell you right now that it will not be my last! It had all the good parts that I love having in my MC romances: a bada*s alpha hero, a strong, kicka*s heroine, action, and a whole lot of heat. It was a fantastic read and I really enjoyed it!
Man, Trent is one HOT hero! He's rough and tough and dirty. He doesn't lie or sugarcoat things and he doesn't feel ashamed or apologize for who he is - what you see is what you get with him. Trent is a total protective, possessive alpha and even though he's the muscle for the club, it doesn't mean that he's not smart. Oh no, Trent is as sharp as a tack, ruthless when it comes to protecting his MC family and Harlee, and he's just as fierce as his heroine.
I liked Harlee pretty much from the moment I met her and I loved her the more I saw of her! She's that strong, kicka*s type of heroine that I love. Harlee is fierce, fiesty, and she doesn't back down from Trent when she wants something. I just got such a kick out of some of the things that she did - she was beyond awesome and I adored her!
An Outlaw Monster was sexy, dirty, and hoooot! It's full of passion, danger, fighting, and heart. It's a true, gritty MC romance and did not disappoint. I loved reading this excellent book and I can't wait to read the next in the series!
An Outlaw Monster is a standalone in the Back Down Devil MC series, it's told from Trent and Harlee's POV, and they do get their happily-ever-after.
O.M.G! I'm still reeling days after I finished reading this wild ride of a story! Harlee fell into a brutal MC, Night Soul, when she needed protection, and now she can't get protection against them nor escape. When she's told that she is to poison a member of a rival MC, she has absolutely no choice in the matter, or she's dead. Trent 'The Monster', is the enforcer for Black Down Devil MC, and is sent to take out the person trying to kill one of his brothers. Instead, he finds himself lying to his brothers in order to protect Harlee. At first, the relationship is fake, but real feelings are growing quickly. They're both in danger from the rival MC that she ran away from, so will Trent be able to balance everything to keep everybody safe?
HOLY WILD RIDE BATMAN! There was no warm up to the action, it started at high velocity of excitement, and never slowed down. The character development is fantastic, with a highly entertaining and colorful cast of secondaries. An intense, action packed, and very well written storyline flowed effortlessly. The flammable chemistry should have had a caution sign, and it finally exploded into fiery flames of sexy scene goodness. London Casey's brilliant writing style had my heart racing cover to cover, and her diabolical twists and turns had me screaming out loud at the OMG moments that never seem to quit. An Outlaw Monster is so addictive, that I read it in one sitting during the NBA Playoffs. I CANNOT WAIT to read about these rough alpha bikers, and cannot HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND this story enough!
*** Received a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review *** This story covers the residue from the mess Ripper lefted after the BDD killed him for his lies, treachous dealings with the Night Soul MC and The deadly O'Nuall family as president of the club but it revolves around Trent( the monster, enforcer) and Harlee. Harlee is a soft, sweet spirit young lady, and to make ends meet she obtained a job as a server in a bar. The Night Soul MC frequently visited this particular bar where Daxton notice her and offer her a job. While in the Night Soul clubhouse, her eyes was open to the escalating dirty dealings, abusive treatment of the other servers and her gallant attempt to leave only piques Daxton specter. Because of the vindictive desires toward the BDD MC past president (Ripper), Rocco, president of the Night Soul MC decided to utilize Harlee to kill one of the BDD team member (Duke). Harlee struggles with herself in what she should do and who to believe because of the awkward position. The attraction between Trent and Harlee was very intense but the monster held on till the end! I was in a state of suspense and excitement of what would happen next and anxious to turn the page and see how it is going to all work out. When the ending came I thought it was well played out and happy to see the couple obtain their HEA. I'm very interested in Duke's history and hope to read about it.
