Sweet/Loving/Amazing

This book was amazing. You get to see that the members of the Soulless Ryders are not the same. After Crazy Bill we get Sweet Walt. He was a very respectful man. He was loved by everyone. He was there to help when ever you needed him. He loved Imogen so much he respected her and was very loving.

It was amazing to see a man on the MC that was so put together so sweet and he knew how to play his cards. Even when he knew some people were doing things at his back he gaves them a second chance.

With him we get a different side of the story. Walt is a family man he loved the kids and he always had his arms open to give love. He was amazing with Sergio and Diego.

Walt was an amazing Husband, Father and Grandpa. He was an amazing person. He was so good that I wanted him and Imogen to be my parents. They were amazing with Joyce and the kids.

I loved this book so much. Is was refreshing to see his side of the story. Also it was amazing to see the kids that we already know in other books. It was interesting to see how the kids were around each other since we already know how thing play out but we don't know how they get to that point. I'm very intrigued to see how everything is going to come full circle.

Ugh that ending broke me.. it felt so real.. I can't wait to read more..

This is a biker read but what made this a great read for me was the how family was top priority for Walt. He may be the current President of Soulless Ryders but he makes sure family (blood or not) is taken care of. To watch his interaction with his wife, his grandkids and all of the other secondary characters was heart warming. There are a few characters in this book that I didn't like so well but that is what makes a good read.

I had many emotions while reading this book and there certainly was plenty of angst and then Ms. Matthews hits you with the ending. Yes an ending that had me re-reading because I was like no that did not just happen. I did not see that coming.

A must read for a character that you won't forget.

Soulless Ryders book two is another great book to add to the origins collection. The story of Walt as the second prez of this MC is phenomenal. Walt is so family oriented by blood or by choice, which ever it shall be. Walt and Imogen were a fantastic match. Was delighted that got to see glimpses of characters from Twisted series. Rayne Matthews was able to bring a character that was loved and respected by his people and still run a MC. This book is a must read. After that ending though, I am impatiently waiting for more. Would so give this more than 5 stars if I could.
I voluntarily reviewed this book after receiving an arc copy for an honest review.

Absolutely freaking AMAZING! So glad I picked this one up and started reading, I was so blown away. I already love a good MC Romance but this really topped the cake for me. The characters just popped off the pages at me and I couldn't help but feel like I was a part of the story myself. Rayne Matthews has once again written a masterpiece and am certainly looking forward to the next book in this series. I think if I had to find something that I was disappointed about it would be that the book had to end. Really wanted to keep reading and was sad when I had to put my kindle down. Can't wait to pick it back up and do a re-read!

Book 2 of the start of the Soulless Ryders. Another great origins book. We get to see the second president of the Soulless Ryders as he struggles to get the respect he deserves without stepping on too many toes. Keeping in contact with Bill for advice, avoiding George and his craziness, and trying to be a great family man have their limits. Walt is just starting to get a handle on running the Ryders and respect from Bill and his fellow Ryders when the ending leaves you in absolute shock and wanting more!!

Book 2 in the origin series did not disappoint. We get to see what happens after Bill goes to prison and Walt takes over as president. Can I say how much I loved him and Imogen they are definitely relationship goals. We learn more about the club and how much we hate George....okay I hate him. We get to see our favorites from the twisted series as they grow up. And can I talk about my man Serge as a kid....🥰🥰🥰. This is a definite must read . Rayne Matthews you never freaking disappoint.

I have been a huge fan of this author from book one and now we get the insight to Walt and how sweet and loving he was to family by blood or not even though he was that 2nd prez to the soulless ryders he tried to follow bills rules and run the club the way bill wanted Walt sucks you right in all the way to the end it’s heart worming and brutal all at once and the ending oh wow didn’t expect that.

Walt isn't like your typical biker, let alone pres, he's a family man, who loves his wife and kids and his MC brothers even when he knows not to trust them all. This is a breath of fresh air air an MC series, but what an emotional roller coaster ride! And that ending!! Just rips your heart out and more. Well written, loving, action packed, suspense filled and more.

This was Book 2 of the Ryder Origins Series, Walt’s Book. What a ride this one was. I won’t lie, I cried at the ending. We see a lot of relationship(many different types) form and break in this one. We see what the Ryders can start to become or how it could all end.

It’s a must read if after Crazy Bill you said, I need more! I can’t wait to get into Book 3…All about our Georgie….

I was given a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

I have been a big fan of Rayne Matthew's, Author, since I was first introduced to her books. Her books just reel you in and always leave you wanting more. To read about Walt brings you closer to the character and let's you see who he is as a person. I fell in love with Walt and you will too. You must get the book! Phenomenal!

Dynamic MC Series

Walt's reign in the Soulless Ryders is am epic journey. The way he takes care of his family, Bill and the club is what an MC club is all about. Rayne writing pulls you into their world in such a dramatic fashion. I am excited about the journey of this series!!!!!!!!!!

Wow 😩 I was not expecting that ending, it came out of nowhere.

Walt’s story was heartwarming and full of angst. Seeing how he interacted and loved his wife and family was everything I didn’t know I needed. Walt had so much love for his grandkids and their family, blood or not. He was a great president for the Soulless Ryders, and he expanding the club so much.

I can’t wait to read the next story and watch the kids, and character from the Twisted Road series grow up. Loving this series so hard.
