Soulless Bastards MC So Cal Chapter Boxset

Rate this book

Book 1: (Smokey) When they took the only things I cared about, I vowed to seek revenge. When I took Bray, I thought that would be the end of what I was feeling. I was wrong. When it's time to send her back, broken, I find myself torn. What's right? What's wrong?

Book 2:(Draven) I knew there was a rat in our club. The obvious choice was the new girl. So I do what I do. I made it hard for her to live in my presence. I forced her until she broke. When her past comes out, I find myself on edge. She wasn't what I expected but she is what I want. Even though I have to let her go. 

Book 3:(Ruger) They all know I'm sick in the head. Or maybe this is just me. When my sister is taken, I will do anything and I do mean anything to get her back. My Prez thinks he's helping when he tosses a woman into the mix. So what she lived a past that resembles my sister's future? She's never dealt with a man like me. Not that it matters. She tests my patience but when she falls into the hands of the enemy? I will whatever I have to make sure I save them both.

Book 4:(Crow) I was lost in a world that I never wanted to be in. I was tired and at the end of my rope. When I met Lyric, we were both at our lowest. She gave me the love I needed and I gave her the love she deserved. We found comfort in each other but that isn't enough. I know where I belong and it isn't on this earth. Now I just have to make the choice. Stay with her? Or go on my way?

I am a wife, mother, child chauffeur and author. I love being able to create different characters and spin a web that makes them come together in the end. My books do not stick to just one genre, they span many.

I write about things that are real life situations and fairy tales are not always smooth sailing. My MC books are hard and gritty and they have struggles just like you would in life.

I also have books that are not so in your face. There are several that are good love stories that are fraught with issues that the characters have to deal with.

The Soulless Bastard MC box set by Erin Trejo included the first four books in the Soulless Bastard MC No Cal series.

Book One: Declan: 4 Stars

Declan was the VP of the MC. He was gorgeous, fierce, mean and one not to be messed with. He was born and raised in the club. It was his life. Brooke was running her uncle’s floundering strip club. She was gorgeous, tough as nails, and fiercely independent.

I enjoyed the storyline and the characters. There was an underlying suspenseful plot within the MC as well as the strip club. They were separate plots that ultimately merged together when Declan and Brooke met. In the end, Trejo provided a well written, well developed, entertaining read while setting the stage for the series well. The characters were intriguing and full of promise for a great series.

Book Two: Mayhem: 3 Stars

Mayhem was the Enforcer in the MC as well a son of the President. He was the crazy and fun brother, always creating “mayhem” but he was also a man who grieved the loss of his old lady going on four years.

Taylor was the mayor’s daughter. She lost her mom to cancer when she was seven and had a horrible relationship with her father. He sent her away to Rome when she was eight. Twelve years later, she was called back home.

I was looking forward to Mayhem’s story as he was one of my favorites in the first book, Declan. However, I didn’t really like the characters in this storyline. Taylor was weak and meek, while Mayhem was a dick. I had a difficult time following them. And for those wanting safe, yea, this was so far from it, it would never pass for my safe friends. The story was well written and well developed, I just wasn’t fond of the direction.

Book Three: Tic: 3 Stars

Tic was a son to the MC President. He was the quieter and calmer son. He was also a single father to an adorable five year old, Jameson.

Ashley. We met Ashley in book one as Brooke’s best friend. She was beautiful, sassy and independent. She lost her parents when she was young and she’s been on her own for awhile. She quit her job unexpectedly and was around when Tic needed a sitter for Jameson; thus the plot started.

At this point, I can’t go further with the review without spoilers. And I really disliked the direction of the storyline. For the ending that came to be, it needed more development. I’ll leave it at that.

Book Four: Prospect: 3 Stars

We met the Prospect, Nuts, in book one, Declan. I was looking forward to his story since I’ve followed him from his first day as a prospect. I felt his strength and determination from day one.

Cherry was a Club girl. She was born and raised in the club. They treated her well but she knew her place and she never wanted more because it would mean revealing secrets that she wanted kept in the dark.

I enjoyed the story’s foundation of hope for a better life and its fulfillment. True to Trejo’s style, it was a dark theme and difficult to see at times.

All in all, Prospect was a short read that concluded the series. It was action packed, brought closure to the club challenges and set the stage for the Soulless Bastards MC So Cal series.

Series Summary: Overall: 3 Stars

All in all, it was a quick, dark and action packed series. There could be triggers for some regarding abuse. Throughout the series, Trejo tackled some tough storylines that weren’t necessarily the direction the masses would want. Although I wasn’t happy at times, it was refreshing to see something other than the norm. Unfortunately there were quite a few editing errors throughout the entire series which became distracting at times; which was why I rated most books a 3 star.

In the end, I enjoyed the series with the first book, Declan, as my favorite. Trejo used the series to set the stage for her next series, Soulless Bastards MC So Cal. Based on the teasers, if I thought this series was dark, the next one looks even darker.

So here's the breakdown of what I thought for each book:

Smokey - at first glance, this VP was a mean, twisted son of a something. After having his family taken from him, he was determined to exact his own brand of revenge. Step one: kidnap the woman. Step two: break her. Step three: throw her back. You know what they say about the best laid plans, right? The more he tortured her, the deeper he was getting, the more she enjoyed it, and then finally feelings... those blasted emotions... started getting involved. Utter chaos ensues and he does get a chance at a life with Bray and it was an entertaining ride. I loved that Smokey was just as twisted in the end as he was in the beginning.

Draven - he was just as twisted as his brother, Smokey. He liked getting his hands dirty and had a suspicious nature that saved the club more times than he could count. They've found that a rat has infiltrated the ranks and Draven believes it may have a lot to do with the new girl, Lia. She's feisty and stubborn, traits that Draven can't get enough of, and he decides that he's going to get answers from her, whether she's willing to give them up or not. The rat was obvious but I didn't expect the depth I found with these characters.

Ruger - I think he was the dirtiest of the bunch. He was outrageous and had no shame. If a man didn't give him answers willingly, he would take the fight right out of them with a bit of 'fun'. I was honestly surprised by what he did despite reading hints in the previous books, but it only made him more callous in my mind. This man just didn't care! Anyhoo, his sister has been taken by a slave ring and he's desperate to get her back. His Prez brings in a girl who lived through the horrors his sister is facing and she wants to help, whether he wants her help or not. Kira was fragile and broken but she had a grit to her that wouldn't allow her to give up. She wanted to take down the bad guys and she wasn't going to let a bit of damage hold her back. It was easy to admire her for that and Ruger couldn't deny his attraction. Their story was the nastiest and made for such amusing entertainment.

Crow - his story happened to be my favorite, although it was the saddest. Crow was haunted by his past and the blame he placed on himself for events he had no control over. He lived with a huge loss and the certainty that he would kill himself one day to be at peace. One day, when he was at his lowest, gun nearby and a steady hand, he found a girl whose pain mirrored his own. They shared a connection and Lyric became the bright spot in what Crow viewed as a bleak life. He fell in love with her (and she him) and he did everything he could to heal her, to piece together her broken pieces, to make her see how beautiful she was. This was a heartbreaking read and I found myself enjoying the downward spiral.

I'm always up for a raw and gritty MC romance and Erin Trejo delivered! These heroes were ruthless, cunning, and dark. These plots were unique from each other but shared a common thread - family. And these stories satisfied the twisted cravings I was having.

Smokey:
This is not your typical biker romance. It’s hard core and raw. This book is about Smokey, the VP of the So Cal Soulless Bastards. He’s only got one thing on his mind… REVENGE! It’s full of torture and pain that will have you on an emotional roller coaster. The dark drama and suspense will have you sitting at the edge of your seat. Braylynn, daughter of the rival club’s president, is being forced to pay for sins of her father and his club. Will Smokey get his revenge? Will Braylynn survive the darkness that surrounds her life?

Draven:
Erin Trejo keeps the momentum going with Draven: Soulless Bastards MC So Cal. Draven is a hard core heartless biker. Lia is shy and puts off a vibe that Draven can feel but can’t explain. This book is full of deception, danger and some hot steamy sex. We continue to learn about all the other Soulless Bastards on this wild ride in So Cal.

Ruger:
This book was more twisted and deranged than I anticipated. It is raw, primal, dark…….. I absolutely loved it!!!
“My body is loose and ready. I twirl the blade in between my fingers, my need for blood swelling inside of me.”
Ruger is definitely not in his right mind. He is disturbing in a dark and meticulous way.
“The one about the man in his right mind, I’ve not been in my right mind for a long time, baby.”
Ruger can handle death, killing and hurting people but feelings, not so much. Kira was the perfect match for Ruger. She is a very strong heroine that doesn’t hold back and challenges him in every way.
“There’s a lot of thing I don’t have the right to do but I do them anyway”

Crow
Erin I need for you to take a step back and take a bow as I give you a standing ovation!!! That was one of the best book you have written to date!! The raw emotions left me feeling powerless. The turmoil caused my heart to ache.
“Four minutes. Four painstaking minutes of my life. It sounds like nothing. To some, it may be, but for me four minutes was all it took to ruin my life. That’s all it took to steal the breath from my body.”
I literally took in each and every detail written.
“Maybe he’s right. Maybe I have more in me, but if that’s true, I’m not sure how. I’ve given about all I have to give. I’m still me though. I’m still Crow, the mother-f**king Soulless Bastard.”
Simply put, this was a brilliantly written and powerful book!!

MC Lovers Dream Boxset

As a summary this is an excellent MC series you don’t want to miss. The men are sexy dirty bikers that have strong women that come into their lives. The Soulless Bastards MC No Cal brothers are everything you can hope for in one fantastic boxset which you can sit down and read without wanting to put it down. Just have that fan ready ladies because these are some pretty hot stories!!


Declan
5+++ If you love die-hard sexy as hell bikers, a strong female and chemistry that is off the charts you have to make this a top priority. Declan is the VP of the Soulless Bastards and lives every part the life of a hardcore biker. Brooke is one tough and feisty woman who has been trying to live her life after losing her mother at a young age and seeing her father shot when she was seven. Brooke is not one to pass up a dare so when her friends dare her to go down the street to get a beer from the local MC she doesn’t think twice. This is when Declan and Brooke have both met their match. Declan can’t get over the way Brooke isn’t afraid of him or the club and is shocked when Brooke allows Declan to do something most women would never think of.

They can’t seem to stay away from each other because the sex is hard, hot and dirty and they both can’t get enough. She is the type of woman any biker would be proud to have. Brooke is a fighter. Literally. Even with men she can go toe to toe. All that practice at the gym is paying off. Brooke is new to the lifestyle of a MC and has much to learn but Declan is worth it. There are secrets from the past that come out which no one was expecting. Will the secrets ruin what Declan and Brooke have found and is Declan willing to bring Brooke into the fold which could mean danger for her. I definitely recommend this book for any MC lover.

Mayhem
Can the Soulless Bastards MC NoCal men get any hotter?! First there was Declan and now we have Mayhem’s story and oh, what a story it is. Mayhem is the enforcer of the club with his dad being the Prez. Mayhem just had a job handed to him and that was to pull security on the mayor’s daughter, Taylor. There’s a problem though; Taylor looks just like the love of his life that died four years ago and left Mayhem a broken man. Does Taylor even have a chance at pulling Mayhem out of the nightmare his life has become and does Taylor want to take a chance on a man who kills and doesn’t bat an eye in doing his job? Both of them have issues with the way they grew up so is there even a chance for Taylor and Mayhem?

Be ready for a book you can’t put down. It will pull at your heartstrings all the while it will have you fanning yourself. Who could ask for anything more from a great MC read!

Tic
Wow! This book was one that gave me one h*ll of a surprise. Right when you have this flow going and you think you knew what was coming this author gave me one of those surprises that had me thinking that “no way that could happen” I had to re-read that portion again just to make sure what I read was actually what it was.

I don’t want to give spoilers but I can tell you that Tic is that bad*ss sexy biker with a son that will melt your heart. So grab some tissues, sit back and be ready for a story that will take you on one crazy rollercoaster ride.

Prospect
Nuts is the prospect who even though he has come from much he didn’t want anything unless he earned it. To many of his brothers in the Soulless Bastards he has already earned his full patch by taking bullets for his brothers. Nuts has found his true family within the Bastards and willingly would do anything for them.

Cherry is the club whore who has many secrets to hide one of which she fears will lose her the family she has found within the club. She was accepted into the club at a young age finding a safe haven within. It was her choice to become the club whore but she held the respect of the members of the Soulless Bastards.

Nuts wants to make Cherry his no matter what her past is and he has told her time and again that he will earn her trust and her heart. Cherry tries to keep her distance because of the secret she hides but that secret is about to come to life and Nuts will put everything on the line to save Cherry. This story is full of danger, tragedies, realizations and an intense feeling of love and respect. Quite the combination, I know but believe me this is a story you don’t want to miss.

I actually didn't finish this set. The first two books, Declan and Mayhem were decent and ok reads. Tic's story was a whole lot different and upsetting to me. While I don't want to post spoilers and ruin it for other readers, I will just say that in my opinion, romances, no matter what category should end with a happy ever after. And what this author did with her main characters didn't do justice to her story or the series. I stopped read this after Chapter 33, couldn't take it anymore.

Wow, if you haven’t read about the guys who make up the Soulless Bastards NO CAL MC, this box set it s must. These guys are Hot, Sexy, Tough guys that live and breathe the brotherhood of MC life and love like there is no tomorrow.The series is full of intrigue, intensity and of course some hot sexy scenes. The author give us tough guys with a softer side, granted it’s often hidden from the world, but not to their brothers and especially not the women in their lives. These tough guys also have real-life problems that Ms. Trejo portrays in a unique and compassionate fashion. Personally I think that’s why her storylines seem to come to life to the point you feel like you are riding right along with them.

Ms. Trejo will take you on one amazingly wild ride with the No Cal MC that you don’t want to miss out on. In this series you will meet Declan, Mayhem, Tic and Prospect. I usually review books in a box series as a whole but these are just too amazing to do that. So here are my brief thoughts on each of the phenomenal books in this series:

Declan: The storyline starts out when Declan is a young boy and he’s forced by his father, the Soulless Bastards MC Prez at the time, to kill the cop that took Declan’s mother's life right in front of the boy’s eyes. Declan has no regrets about killing the cop but he was forced to do so in front of the man’s two young daughters. To some it was an eye for an eye but to Declan he remembers the pain in the young girl’s eyes and that incident shaped him into the man he is today.

The story fasts forward to Declan as a man. His uncle is now the Prez and he is the club’s VP. Declan is as tough as they come and lives for the club. We also meet Brooke. She is one tough young lady. She lives down the road from the club and during a game of truth or dare with her friends, she is dared to go to the club and ask for a beer. Of course Brooke takes the dare and that is when she meets Declan. Dec is called to the gate and ends up giving her heck and dishing out nothing but trouble. But trust me when I say Brooke gives as much as she gets when it comes to Declan. Dec ends up walking her home and taking advantage of the situation, something he soon regrets. The trouble is, Brooke keeps coming back to him asking for more of the same. Declan knows Brooke is something special and not like most of the women he hangs around.

When Brooke’s uncle is killed and things start falling apart around Brooke, can she trust Dec and the club to help her? When secrets of her past come to light will she stay the strong tough woman Dec has come to know or will she finally crumble? The storyline is sexy, flirty, fast paced and action packed.

Mayhem: Mayhem is the clubs enforcer. He is a hard man that been through a lot in his life. He blames himself for a lot of things that honestly were out of his control. But his past seems to fuel the fire that burns within him, which on some days is a good thing and others not so much. When the Mayor starts getting threats, due to his personal shady deals, he wants the club to guard his daughter, Taylor. But when his father Blu, the club’s prez, puts Mayhem on the guard detail, his life gets turned inside out. Watching how this one tiny blonde, blue eyed, sexy woman, who has a sassy mouth and just wants to be noticed for once in her life, brings this alpha hardcore biker to his knees makes for one heck of a read.

Tic: What a rollercoaster ride from start to finish with Tic’s story! May I start by saying the author has written an amazing storyline, even if I did want to scream at her a time or two. The storyline is full of action, drama, romance and suspense all dealing around Tic and his son, Jameson.

Tic has been raising his son alone since Jameson was a month old and his mother left them. He’s a great kid that will have you grinning from ear to ear as you read along. As for Tic, he’s a rough, tough biker with a chip on his shoulder but one thing is for sure he is totally devoted to one two things: his son and the MC/brotherhood.

I refuse to spoil this book. All I can say is it is Totally a MUST READ. The twists, turns and surprises will have you on the edge of your seat and your emotions will definitely take a wild ride but the book is so worth it.

Prospect: The club is still dealing with their rival the Viral Dead and the recent death of their Prez, Blu. Declan, the new Prez is trying to take the club in a new, better direction. A direction that Nuts, is determined to be a part of. He is currently a prospect and loving every minute of it. Even all the “Shitty” jobs that are thrown his way. Because nothing means more to him than earning the things the wants out of life; and right now that’s two things: his club patch and claiming Cherry as his.

Cherry is a club “girl”. She grew up with the soulless bastards mc. Blu, the former Prez took her in at a young age and was like a father to her (she never knew who her real father was), while her mother was strung out on drugs and bounced from clubhouse to clubhouse and man to man. Even though she “earned” her keep, similar to the way her mom did, Cherry was loved and cared for by the guys, especially by Nuts. But Cherry also has a dark past with secrets, so letting Nuts close is not an option, no matter how determined he is to earn her trust and love.

But when her past shows up again and things get really bad, will she break down and let him in? Nuts and Cherry are both strong willed and determined. Will they find their way and earn what they want out of life?

I can’t recommend The No Cal MC series enough. If I could give it more stars I definitely would, 5 just doesn’t seem enough. So how about 20 stars, 5 for each of the 4 books in the series. 2 Thumbs Up for a phenomenal read and Kudos to Ms. Trejo for a job extremely well done.

Amazing series! Each book is filled with love, danger, action, excitement, and HEA’s to go around. The motorcycle club life has always fascinated me and Erin Trejo takes you in that journey and also shows you that every tough guy has his soft side too.
Let’s not forget the incredibly strong women that are a part of this group of men! They really hold the home front down and the men when needed.

~~~~~~~~~~Tracy's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review~~~~~~~~~~

This has to be one of the best boxsets ever. I loved almost every book in this set and I have to give it a five star rating. Love this author and can't wait for more of this series!!! MUST READ boxset!!!

Declan ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Declan is the VP of the Soulless Bastards MC NoCal and he was born into this life. Then Brooke walks up to his club on his dare and she turns his world upside down. Add in some men who want what Brooke has and will do anything to get it. When their pasts collide with their present it puts their future in jeopardy. This author knows how to write a great MC book, she pulls you in and wraps her stories around you. I loved this story and Brooke is so strong and balls to the wall. The story had so many twists and turns. I can't wait to read Mayhem's story next and see who turns his world upside down. Great story, even better characters and can't wait for more. Highly Recommended!!!

Mayhem ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I loved this story, Mayhem is one kick a$$ biker who doesn't bow down to anyone, his only problem is the loss he suffered and still has yet to get over and forgive himself. Then he gets to protection job of protecting the mayor's daughter Taylor and they are like oil and water. Taylor has been hurt by her father emotionally most of her life and was blamed for something she couldn't control. Now she is back in town and trying to find her way but it seems every direction there is a roadblock and the biggest one's name is Mayhem. So when she truly starts to see the real man behind the mask he puts on for others she finds that there is more to this biker than meets the eye. I loved Taylor and Mayhem they both had issues from their pasts that they are struggling to overcome. This is one series that I am just loving so much. I have fallen in love with these characters so much that their pain feels like mine. Amazing story and I can't wait for more.

Tic ⭐⭐½

I loved Ashley, Tic and Jameson so much. Ashley is just floating in life and she finally finds the love and family she desired when she happens upon this beautiful little boy named Jameson in the Soulless Bastards MC, after quitting her job she falls into the role of his babysitter. Tic knows she is something different when she offers to care for his son and together they begin to build a life by taking a chance on each other. Then Dana, Tic's ex, comes back in the picture and wants her family back and she won't stop no matter who she hurts to get it. This is where everything in this story changed for me. I am not going to give anything away as in spoilers but I didn't like where this book went. The story just lost me and I had no connection or feelings with how it ended. I felt let down as a reader. This won't deter me from reading more of this series and I know it is up to the author to tell her story but for me it fell flat. The first 32 chapters I give 5+++ Stars, but the rest just fell flat for me. For others you may love this story and I hope you do, but this is my opinion on what I read.

Prospect ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐+++++++

I have to say out of all the books in this series, this has by far been my favorite. I love Nuts and how big his heart is and the fact he will do anything for the club and his brothers. He loves hard and that includes Cherry, the club whore who has a past that is ripping apart her future. Cherry's life has never been easy and more secrets are exposed that could destroy everything including the club.

Wow! What an amazing book! I can't say enough good about this book. I fell in love with Nuts and he unfailing love, dedication, devotion and loyalty. Cherry's story was so hard to read but I am glad I did because it moved me in ways I never expected. I actually re-read this book again because I missed the characters so much. This is one book that should not be missed. I highly recommend this author, book and series.

I have read each one of these stories and have been floored by them all. These aren't your sweet weekend bikers, these brothers are hard core and not afraid to throw down. This author does it to me like no other. Her MC books are straight madness and wonderful reads. Her MC's are broken and battered and foul mouthed and foul tempered. Their attitudes do sometimes make a change for the better, well when they find their "Old Lady". But when they find an old lady that can take the guys down and turn around and give them hell, like Brooke, well she just melts their hearts. This time though there is trouble. And when the past comes back full force it just might be the thing that breaks her and Dex for good.
The guys are rough and rowdy, cursing and screw anything with 2 legs and a hole so what is there to like. If you like men that are broken and hiding their hearts behind the rough tough biker image. Or men that will protect as fiercely as they love. Or how about the women that love them. They are fierce and strong. Even if they come to the club in pieces they always seem able to dig deep and find their strength.
With Taylor and Mayhem we get all of it. These two broken by their past. Caste aside like garbage by those that were supposed to love and protect them. This author makes us feel every punch as they come to terms with their own personal stuff and find each other. It helps that their biker family and yeah they are truly a family, they are there to support, to love, to cry, to protect. I bawl like a baby and come unglued when I read about them. Somehow some way each read becomes personal. Their pain becomes mine and I crumble and share it, can't help it.
Tic is stealing hearts and taking prisoners. This time he's trying to finally stop messing with has sitters so they don't run off again leaving him in a lurch. Jameson is adorable and easily wins the heart of Ashley. But as in most of this authors book it can't be nearly this easy. Don't do like I did and forget who is writing this story. I was right. Before it's all said and done there will be deaths (of course), rape and beatings (once again it's a guarantee), the loss will be staggering (isn't it always). But when the dust settles our guys will have made it through another day in the MC's. . . but things will never be the same.
Cherry was the club whore. Her mother was one before her and with the life she has led it was all she felt she deserved. Secrets, lies and betrayal, abuse, rape her life wasn't one of luxury. Prospect on the other hand came from a life of luxury but wanted to earn his own way. He didn't complain but did whatever was asked without feedback. The club was his family. He wanted Cherry but he wasn't the only one. Of course this whole thing can't be pretty or easy and yes there are twist and things you don't expect well, you know what I mean. I love this author and love her characters and all of the emotion that pours from her pages. Prospect stole Cherry's heart and he will steal yours as well.

This is a box set you don't want to miss out on. All four man in this set are absolutely amazing lovable and treat their woman right. Erin did an amazing job with all four of these books.
Declan:
Absolutely loved this book. Declan has become a favorite for me. There is just something about him that has you wanting more. I absolutely love these two together. Brooke goes through something terrible when she is a kid. She has grown up to be strong and her own person. All she wants to do is get her uncle's club back up and running. But one dare leads to a whole new adventure for her. Brooke and Declan together are just extremely hot. I love how she becomes his world even after she finds out the truth. Erin wrote a great book. Highly recommend . I am so hoping there is going to be more from these boys.
Mayhem:Loved this one. I absolutely love Mayhem. He is suffering after 4 years from something that was out of his hands. Then he ends up having to babysit protect a girl who changes everything for him. I loved him and Taylor together. Hot steamy enjoyable chemistry. This was a well written story line from beginning to end. Highly recommend.
Tic: Oh my God I absolutely loved Tic. This one made me fall in love break than fall in love again. You will need tissues with this one. An absolute must because you will cry. Fair warning. But holy did I love this one. Tic is my favorite now. Not only is he yummy but an amazing dad to a cute little boy that you can easily fall in love with. I loved this storyline and how things happened for everyone. Fate brought them together at just the right time and changed their lives. Highly recommend this one.
Prospect:
What can I say about this one besides it was absolutely amazing just like the other ones in this series. I loved the Prospect. Lets start with the yummy cover. Then move on to the amazing story line. All of the books in this series have an amazing storyline. But there was just something about this one that had me wanting more and more with every page I turned. I absolutely loved Nathanial otherwise known as Nuts. He is someone that keeps to himself and will do everything and everything for the club. He finds someone that he wants but Cherry is not someone that gives in so easily. She believes that she should live a certain life style and Nuts doesn't felt into that . But nothing will stop Nuts from getting her to change her mind about things. She is a typical club whore but he sees past that and sees so much more. But will he be able to get her to see that she is so much more? Just an amazing chemistry between these two. I absolutely loved their love story and how they are perfect for each other. I absolutely hate what she goes through but love how strong she tries to stay. Just a great book and a great addition to this series. Highly recommend reading this one.
Highly recommend each one of these books. Loved every single one of them.

This is a great boxed set of MC romances It tells the stories of the Soulless Bastards and the women that tame them It is a set of four books These books handle some dark issues with plenty of triggers so they may not be for everyone. The four book set consists of
DECLAN
Brook never backs down under any circumstances and when she is dared to get a drink from the local MC bar she doesn't hesitate Declan is the VP of the Soulless Bastards most women are scared of him and his club when Brooke doesn't back down he may have finally met his match Be prepared for some extremely raunchy scenes between these two
MAYHEM
Mayhem isn't only the son of the club president he is also their main enforcer he doesn't take a backward step from anyone after all he doesn't care wether he lives or does after losing the love of his life four years ago. When he is tasked with protecting the mayor's daughter he gets more than he bargained she is the spitting image of his lost love. This is a heartbreaking story with plenty of violence will they get a HEA
TIC
Tic is a single dad who will do whatever he needs to for his family he is also the presidents sin and Mayhen's brother When he needs a babysitter Brooks friend steps into help Will this give him another chance at love. Be prepared for a huge surprise in this story and keep the tissue handy
PROSPECT
WE met Nuts the prospect in the earlier book and now we learn of his romance with Cherry a woman that grew up in the club. But she has secrets that she wants to keep will she give him the chance to get close or will she send him on his way.

Alltogether four geeat books that where reasonable fast reads They do handle some sensitive dark material so may not be for everyone

I could strangle Erin for book 3 Ugh!!!

Want to start with saying loved that it was a box set and price was great. Would have loved to have given a higher rating but I fought between 2 and 3 star.

Book 1 Declan and Brook. I absolutely loved Brook. She didn't take any Sh&t and she kicked arse! Loved the Truth or Dare game!

Book 2: Was Mayhem and Taylor's story. Mayhem I could have strangled that cheating ass! If he has to go to another chapter to "clear his mind as well as getting his knob polished, then he doesn't care enough about Taylor. (Please note I don't mind cheating on books as long as other person is not a pushover like Taylor was).

I'm just glad the Mayor got what was coming to him.

Book 3 Starts out Tic & Ashley they fall in love quick. But that goes to Sh$t when Dana drugs Tic and takes his son Jameson.

Now here is where I got real pissed. While rescuing Jameson both Ashley and Blu get shot and killed. SERIOUSLY! WHY?

At this point I'm so mad I am spitting nails. Then to find out that he seems to just replace her with Kenderly the one his dad Blu liked. Again he falls in love and thinks she will make a great mother for his son, the same way he felt about Ash. Feels like he replaced her to quick.

JUST NO!!!! It did not work for me. At this point I give up.

Book 4: Nuts and Cherrys book, however I only skimmed it quick. Maybe at one point I will go back and read it more thoroughly. I just can't at this time without throwing my kindle.

Looking forward to reading her next box set I bought.

Declan: I loved how fate brought Declan and Brooke together. This was a fabulous read. It had it all…. Declan is a sexy biker, Brooke is a firecracker to say the least and a group of hardcore bikers that will steal your heart.

Mayhem: Mayhem is just that mayhem…. violent. He lives the hard life not taking any crap from anyone. Taylor is secluded and the polar opposite of Mayhem. Their two worlds collide. Action, chemistry and broken hearts fill the pages.

TIC: Erin Trejo you just broke my heart with this one!!!! The more I read in this series the better it gets. This book is filled with love, lust, passion, tragedy and total devastation. This book took a turn I wasn’t expecting. You pulled several emotions from me. I didn’t know if I wanted to hit or hug you!

Prospect: This is Nuts story. No, his name is not as it appears to be. He is pure alpha male wanting to prove and earn his way through life. His actions and feelings towards a club whore will just melt your heart!!! Cherry has demons that she wants to leave in her past however they keep finding their way back in her life. Will she be strong enough to face them and will Nuts be strong enough to fight them?

Thank you for this amazing boxset!!! This is a must read!!

Declan- This author is on FIRE!! I love how she isn't afraid to follow where her characters take her!
Declan and Brooke's story is so hot - like burning hot, heartbreaking at times, and I love the sass of Brooke! She is so sassy and will not be told what to do....ever! Well that is until she meets Declan. No one tells Declan no....
When the ghosts of the past come knocking at their door, will the truth of how interwoven their past is destroy them or make them stronger?
Mayhem-So I thought Declan- book One in the Soulless Bastards No Cal series was HOT!!! Apparently I was wrong! There is just something about Mayhem that grabs at your heart while your brain is screaming "oh hell NO" You can't help but fall for a broken man, a man who takes rather than give. Well that is until he meets his match Taylor! Damn that girl doesn't know when to give up! So much sass and attitude- it may just be what the doctor ordered for Mayhem. I loved this book and truly couldn't put it down!
Tic- What I love most about this author's work, is the fact that she doesn't shy away from the rawness of human emotions. She drags you kicking and screaming through every heartache, every joyful moment, every dark vengeful feeling, every lustful fantasy, and then smacks you up the side of the head and rips your heart out of your chest!
I cannot get enough of this series!
Prospect-One thing I love about these characters is that when they fall they fall hard! No ifs, no buts, no maybes ....just completely and totally devoted to their chosen. Nuts in one of those guys- he has a code he lives by and he works for everything he has and wants, including Cherry.
Cherry has a code too, no one can know her past and attachments aren't for her- attachments are dangerous...... Nuts is everything she has ever wanted but can't have, shouldn't have...
When Cherry's secret rears its ugly head, Nuts will do everything he can to prove to her that she is more than her past and worthy of a future...

Declan
5 stars
This is a great mc book. I loved the characters and the dynamic between them all. So much going on it keep me engaged throughout. Brooke was a bad ass I loved her firey nature and Declan was a caveman biker wanting to protect his girl.

Mayhem
Stars 5
Mayhem is hilarious he's as his names same choas on a sexy stick when he becomes security for the mayor's daughter he and Taylor don't see eye to eye. Taylor just wants to feel wanted, her father blaming her for everything in his life. Running to mayhem was all she wanted but his past haunted him, it almost breaks them. Great read loved the characters.

Tic
5 stars
I loved this story tic and Ashley come together over his son, but fight their feelings to protect not only the boy but themselves. When tic's past comes back to haunt him all he'll breaks lose with an ending you don't see coming. I found it hard to accept the twist in the tale at first but the end chapter had me in tears, amazing end to this book.

Prospect-
- 5 stars
Prospect was all about nuts as he earnt his way up the ranks to claim his patch and the girl he loved. Cherry a club whore raised by a club whore felt she had nothing to offer in life but her body. Nuts saw the real her, this story is tragic in her past and present colliding but nuts will do anything to earn the girl too great end to this series.

Book 1 - Declan - I absolutely loved Declan & Brooke! Loved how they first met and all that came after it! What a great story and loved the rosary part.

Book 2 - Mayhem

I absolutely loved Mayhem & Taylor! I thought Declan Book 1 was awesome but somehow Erin managed to top it! I loved how they’re relationship grew and the ups and downs. I love Minnie! What another great read!

Book 3 - Tic

This was a great read! I’ve read a few books similar to this type of scenario but never cared for them until this one.

I loved all the main characters so much. This is definitely an emotional roller coaster that has a few surprises along the way for Tic. Tic, Ashley, Kinderly & Jameson love y’all!!!

Book 4 - Prospect

Cherry & Nuts were a fantastic couple with a lot of unexpected twists & turns

Absolutely loved this series!!!

Book 1) Declan~When you find the person you have been waiting for you whole life only to then start to worry that your secret that you dont want any one to know about my come back to bite you in the butt...makes you do some crazy things. Good first book to a new series that I am drawn to.

Book 2) Mayham~Another great story to a great series that while draw you in and not let you go till the last page. I cant wait to get my hands on the next book in this series.

Book 3) Tic~I think this one is my favorite book so far. I loved how Tic was able to be a good dad and give his kid the best he could with what life had been dealt. It was really a loving story that I couldnt put down.

Book 4) Prospect~ I liked that Erin tied two characters stories together in one book and gave us a little glimpses into the characters we met in the first three books. In this book we get to know more about Nuts and Cherry.
Nuts would do anything for the club, down to even taking a bullet for them, he calls them his family. He wants Cherry to be his old lady but she's just a club whore, in her mind, but to Nuts she is so much more. They both have secrets that muse be dealt with so the truth for truth I thought was a nice way for both of them to get things out in the open. I cant wait to get my hands on more of Erin Trejo's work.

Amazing Series🔥❤🔥❤

First off, AMAZING SERIES OF COURSE! These Soulless Bastards Boys are Hot and not to mentioned their loves of their lives are Sassy, Strong Minded Women. They go through good times and bad times, but most of all they stand strong together. I've enjoyed this SERIES very much and reading the Boxset makes it more enjoyable. I've been a HUGE FAN OF Miss Erin for a long time, and she's just getting better and better. Erin is one these authors that's unapologetic about her characters, she writes what her characters are telling her to write, if it's not a Happy Ending in a story then that's what you get, she doesn't have to modify it to her way of thinking. This author will give you The Bad, The Ugly, The Crying, The Sadness, The Emotions, The Hardships, The Feels but overall she gives you the best of the best, she basically doesn't sugarcoat it for you and I absolutely love it! This Boxset is a definite recommendation, does it deserves 5 stars? Absolutely Not! In My opinion it deserves much more than that😊

A gritty and realistic look at motorcycle clubs

This boxed set provides a gritty and realistic look at motorcycle clubs. Telling the tale of four members: Declan, Mayhem, Tic and Nuts and the women they fall for. Erin Trejo put a lot of emotion, nastiness, danger and a good amount of surprises in each of the four stories. I can't wait to read more from her. Reader discretion is advised due to dark subject matter and/or possible triggers.

I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not.

Fight for Love

Each book is based on a different No Cal member. They are a MC who back each other as family. Blood or not they stick together through thick and thin and welcome each woman the guys meet whether claimed or new to the club. If you can find the right woman who is willing to accept your lifestyle, grab on and don't let her go. It can be gritty or sweet but it is how they live! Loved this series and look forward to reading about their So Cal brothers!

This MC has the usual, sex, murder, drugs and abuse. All the guys are trying to make the club better than it was in years past when the 3 boys father was the Prez. Each one has their own story to tell and how they met their old ladies. Stuff like this happens in the real world, so if this isn't something you don't want to read about, don't, but these are just stories. I had already read the 1st 3 books individually, so it didn't take long to get through this box set.

As a friend of mine would say “ oh mylanta”, how in the world have I missed reading these books?! I am a fan of Erin Trejo and have read quite a few of her books, but I totally missed out on these! Each book was different, as all the characters have their own unique personalities, but they all were exciting, super sexy and quite often painful to read, but you couldn’t stop...impossible! Great job Ms. Trejo, I’m ready for the So Cal guys now. Really hope you give Ruger a story, that is one twisted sucker! Oh, and does it make me weird if Mayhem is my favorite?

The Soulless Bastards MC Box set is clearly a true masterpiece written by Erin Trejo a fantastic storyteller. The chemistry between the characters is so hot and the story-lines so well-written in this collection that I had a very difficult time putting this set down. Each book drags you into a world of dangerous life-threatening situations, heart wrenching romance and sizzling sexual tension. I was totally captivated throughout this addictive page turner. I can't wait to read more of the Soulless Bastards MC No Cal series.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
