Sh¡t hit the fan for Broken Deeds. I was on my toes, with this one. But then also I was miffed. Not sure why but I was more annoyed, then worried about the villain. Such a dramatic little b¡tch, thinking his the king or something of this world. I'm so looking forward for Broken Deeds to wipe the floor with him.
Oh, I'm happy, that I read right the vibe with Vachs and Hadley in first book. Cookie for me. Lol. But seriously, this couple is perfect. The way Vachs always had her back... Insert dreamy sigh here.

Such a sweet, sweet story with a perfect amount of action to keep it interesting. Of course we had all the heat and instalove that Esther Schmidt does best.
I felt a bit protective of Hadley we met her as a precious little girl and learned to love her right along side her Daddy. Now she's all grown up.
I cried with tears running down my cheeks at a beautiful and touching scene.
Loved this story hard!

Loved it!

I feel that I write “Loved it” for every Esther Schmidt book I read.

While I enjoyed this one immensely, there were moments where it got a little to “sappy, preachy” for me. And since I’m reading it on Valentine’s Day weekend, I am on an overload of love crap😂 so it was a bit much.

Another thing about the book that felt off was that Hadley grew up in the MC and through the entire book, she had no friends. None of the other first generation had girl’s that she bonded with?? No girls night out, no conversations with her girls to discuss her new man..nothing. While she explained why she stopped dating and all, I couldn’t help but think “if you had some friends, you could have worked through that shit”. Oh well.

Finally, we took on the freaking cartel and there was no more info provided after we saved Ellory. Howwas a box left and no one saw who left it. Didn’t we have lookouts and such?? Maybe it will be in the next book, but I was surprised that we had a wedding while we were still in “somewhat” lockdown. I was a little perplexed by that, but obviously there’s more to come.

This story was still good and I loved it. It had all of the elements that Esther’s MC books have, with the exception of more sex (don’t judge).😄

This is the second book in the second generation of the Broken Deeds MC. Vachs was a nomad who was drawn to settling with the Broken Deeds MC. What they do calls to him and gives him purpose. But he is still restless. Then a trip to get a tattoo changes his life. Hadley loves tattooing and lives above the club’s tattoo parlor. When someone drives through the front of the shop and Vachs saves Hadley it changes everything for the both of them. Vachs finds his steady with Hadley and she finds someone who would do anything for her. More importantly to her she feels safe with him and he doesn’t treat her differently because she is deaf. Hadley doesn’t date or let men near her. So, when she lets Vachs close they draw everyone’s attention. Has the instant love bug bit both of them? I loved this book so much. I love Hadley. She is so amazing. Her being dear doesn’t stop her at all. Vachs is amazing. He lets Hadley be part of the club not just someone’s daughter. I am loving these books involving the second generation. Reading about the continuation of the club is fantastic. I can’t say enough about this book and the series. Fantastic job Esther.

First things first; I really like the cover of this book!
This book is the second book in the broken deeds second generation series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters loveable and the storyline entertaining. Vachs is a wandering soul with a permanent case of itchy feet. When he settles down and goes from nomad to a member of the broken deeds he tries his best. Hadley is a tattoo artist that keeps herself to herself. When Vachs and Hadley meet, sparks fly.
The chemistry between Vachs and Hadley is clear to see and I loved them together. I thought they were perfect for one another. I loved how Vachs put in the effort to learn to communicate with Hadley.
I really liked Hadley’s bond with Hank.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I cannot wait for more books from this series.

This book was everything! The love between Vachs and Hadley is a love you can on,y dream of. This book had action but for me the relationship between these two was so consuming. It was love at first sight well tap on the shoulder! Vachs was a nomad and never felt grounded until Hadley came into his life. And even though Hadley gave up men she knew the first time she saw Vachs that he was it and same for him. I loved how even Depay and Arrow knew! Vachs did not see Hadley having a disability but treated her like she always wanted to be treat. I loved how he reached out for help to learn right away how to communicated with her. This book made me feel the love pouring from the pages. I cannot wait for the next book especially the tease that was given during the wedding!

Ms Schmidt’s books never disappoint. Once again she has given us an action packed suspense MC read with a bit of humor and lots of feels thrown in. This is Vach and Hadley’s story. If you’ve kept up with the original series you know Hadley is Delay’s daughter (Arrow’s sister) and Vach’s is a nomad looking to settle with the Broken Deeds MC.

The storyline touched my heart while it kept me on my toes. The club is involved with a couple investigations that end up bringing troubles to the clubs door as well as to Hadley tattoo shop. Vach and Hadleys connection was amazing to watch unfold amid the chaos.

I highly recommend grabbing this one up ASAP, you won’t regret it, and this reader can’t wait to see what happens next with the Broken Deeds MC 2nd generation.

2 Thumbs Up and 5 Stars!!!

Gah editors do your job. Hadley is the oldest second generation so she's at LEAST 32 (older because of the twins and timelines). There's NO WAY Depay is only nearing 50. While the author doesn't ever seem to give ages (I'm only going on the fact this is 28 years after North), she does mention things like being in the military. So Depay has to be 50 or older since he wasn't a teen dad. THESE are the things (along with too much repetitiveness) that keep me from giving any of her books 5 stars.

"That’s another thing this MC is known for; respect our rules or get the fuck out of our way. This goes for everyone, but for the women who want to have a fun time, there’s an extra set of restrictions; you have to respect the old ladies and the bikers who claimed them."


Except Cora. She was allowed to shit all over Bee and flirt with the Prez and nothing happened to her.

Wow wow wow! Right from the first page I was in and invested, full of excitement and waiting to see what would get thrown at these characters, as always I wasn't disappointed. The sparks and love between these two just bounced off the pages, had my heart racing and that's just the human side, Hank had me itching to cuddle him and give him lots of love. Powerful story with Hadley's deafness but the way the MC and Vach look after her and make sure she never feels left out of conversations is wonderful and the other ways he makes sure she knows how much he cherishes her just had me melting. Gosh I just wanted it to never end. Started 4/2/21 finished 5/2/21

This was a great addition to the series. Esther E. Schmidt did a wonderful job on the story, the plot and characters were strong, the story was packed with action, suspense and more. I couldn't put the book down.
From the moment Vachs and Hadley met, they had an instant attraction, they were drawn to each other. They were well matched, the connection they had was strong, the chemistry between was even stronger, it was sizzling hot. Hadley and Vachs were great together, they would have done anything for each other. Vachs was very protective been it came to his woman, she was his world.
This was a great story. Thank you, Esther E. Schmidt. Great work :)

Broken Deeds MC: Second Generation, this is book 2 in the second generation, written by the amazing and talented author Esther E. Schmidt. This is Vach's and Hadley's story. This story catches your attention from the first page and keeps you glued to it until the very end. Their intimate moments are so sexy. The plot is full of drama, action, danger, suspense and a beautiful romance. Loved that we get to see old characters from both MC.. Love Hank!!! I'm completely head over hills for this series. Esther writing skills are phenomenal. Can't wait for more!!

Book 2 in the second generation of Broken Deeds MC has you gripped and held hostage to the story right from the start. Vachs and Hadley have a chemistry that lights up the pages and has you feeling the connection with these characters soul deep. Their story might be action packed and gritty but it also touches your heart and soul with the sweetness and passion that this two ooze. As you ride hard with the Broken Deeds again you will be pulled into the words with an emotional journey that has you enchanted by this touching and heartfelt story.

Love Vachs & Hadley (& Hank)! This is one of my favorite series, because I love the sense of family. And I'm highly enjoying the 2nd Gen stories because the 1st Gen guys & gals are still a part of everything. They've got their eyes on everyone w/o stepping on the new guys' toes.

Vachs & Hadley's story has a bit of action going on as well as the insta-love & steam. I love how he makes an effort right away to learn sign, knowing that even though they can communicate w/o it, it's an important part of her.

Great book

The author has done it again, brought together a story that will draw you in and keep your interest right from the first pages all the way to the end. This Brotherhood of bikers is an interesting lot, filled with hot alpha males and strong independent women, add in a corrupt politician, the Cartel, and a girl who turns what some might think as a disadvantage into a truly beautiful gift, add in a cute pup and a previously wandering biker, instant attraction, romance,and action and you have one fantastic story.

I can't get enough of this series. Will, I can say that to every one of Esther's series..lol. Vachs and Hadley's story was just amazing and heartwarming. Why can every mam be like the men in the Broken Deeds MC. The dedication these men show their women is just swoon worthy. Theres been a lot of action going on in this series and it'll have you on the edge of your set and impatiently waiting for the next book.

I adore main characters with disabilities and this author did a phenomenal job. I didn't want to put it down for a second. Hadley is strong and sweet, she couldn't have been a better leading lady. Vachs is the strong and silent type but he is an open book for Hadley. This is now my favorite Esther E. Schmidt book, ever! Vachs and Hadley are perfection!! I cried, I swooned over the chemistry between them, it was sheer magic! Ten stars!

Vach & Hadley

Vach & Hadley's story warmed my heart. From the very start he protected and defended her even against his own brothers. I loved how these two completed each other. Their story was action packed and kept kept me on the edge of my seat. When Bach approached Baton my heart was in my throat I loved how he handled the who situation. I cried like a baby during the wedding. I can't wait to read Baton's story and see what happens next.

So good

Esther sure knows how to write an MC story and this one is no different.

I loved Hadley as a child and hoped she'd get her happy ending when we were told about the next gen series. Vach certainly is what she needs and he's just the right amount of alpha for her.

My heart stopped with the Dupey twist. Don't ever do that again!!! The storyline throughout was fantastic, and I can't wait to read the others so we can see what happens.

Bring on the rest.

She swore of relationships, he has a restless mind. One meeting and their worlds change. Will they be able to figure out who is after the MC?

Absolutely loved these two! I loved the fact that he saw who she really was and not what her disability was. I loved how she adapted to things around her and the strength she showed even when others questioned her. Excellent read, cannot wait for more!

I love the original club and reading about the kids are even better. Really loved Hadley when she was little and her dad, Depay finally got custody of her. So to read her and Vach's story was a treat for me. There is plenty of danger, heat and a scary moment for her dad. But loved the book. HEA.

4.5* Vachs and his one, Hadley

Vachs sees Hadley at the tattoo parlor and he has met his destiny. He's at the parlor just in time to keep her safe. A car has crashed in through the front window almost hitting Hadley.

This is a great read from beginning to end!

I enjoyed this read.

Best MC book ever

This is how I have wanted MC's to be written! They are not criminals, but investigate crimes and respect their wives and girlfriends. Love love love Bach's and Hadley's story. Love that everyone learned ASL around her. Great story, fast paced, and now I want a show based on this MC.

Vach’s and Hadley stole my heart

She may have been born deaf but she’s a normal amazing woman to this wanderer. Front m the moment they met and he saved her they knew they were meant for each other.

The MC is protective of her while recognizing her worth. I loved them together. The danger loyalty the clubs reason for being make for a great read

This is a MC Romantic Suspense, and this is the second book of the Broken Deeds MC: Second Generation. I have read the first book in this series before I picked this book up. I really loved this book, and I loved Hadley's character from the time her character showed up as a kid in the first generation series. I loved this book so much.

Vachs and Hadley

A tender, protective, and quietly powerful tale of two people who certainly needed to find one each other. Vachs and Hadley are absolutely adorable together. With all of the chaos surrounding them, they found their safe harbor in one another. I enjoyed every second of this exciting adventure.

I love Vach & Hadley! This book grabbed me from the beginning. I love how protective he is over her from the beginning. He never backs down and this is my kind of hero.... he never makes her feel different no matter what’s going on. It’s going to be hard to beat Vach!
