Axel As the President of the Raging Barons MC, I was used to being the boss until she came along. Making Mia my old lady was done solely for her protection, but our time together made my heart long for something it never had. Was it possible I found the one that was mine, after all?
Mia Serving time for a crime I didn’t commit was never part of my plan. Now, my willingness to trust was diminished. Then he came along, proving my innocence and offering his protection. Making me his old lady gave me everything I longed for; a place to belong, and a chosen family, but can my heart ever learn to love again?
This is not a hard-core read. Each of the books in the series covers one of the MC characters. They can be read as standalone but are best read in order. No cliff-hanger, HEA The content is for mature audiences only 18+. Please do not read if sexual situations, violence, and explicit language offend you.
I loved this one. It was amazing. I can't wait to read the next book. Poor Mia didn't deserve any of that shit but she got her happy ever after in the end.
I feel a bit torn after finishing this book. Don’t get me wrong—the story was amazing. It’s a slow burn, but still incredibly engaging. That said, I found myself slightly disappointed. I think I just enjoyed the pace of the prequel more? Maybe it resonated with me differently. Either way, it's a great read—I just connected more with the earlier one.
Ok. I expected so much more after the big deal about a prequel. I thought this book was going to be about Axel and Mia. Not them and hammer and target and chaos, and everyone else. There were too many points of view for a book supposed to be about a developing relationship. I felt ZERO chemistry between Axel and Mia. None. The sex scene that come at the end fizzled. Completely awkward. MC extra lite, no romance that I could tell. Read like someone that was just telling you what was going on, it definitely didn’t make me feel like I was experiencing anything, didn’t draw me in at all. I won’t be finishing this series.
It was nice to see Mia and Axel grow their relationship. In the last book, you could see that there was a spark there and they took the time to get to know each other in this one before crossing the physical line, which I think they needed, Mia especially. Liked how things ended for the couple.
I liked how Axel let Mia have an impact on the club, let her take her ideas and help make it better and used her as a resource to help spot problems and back her up when she started to take care of problems. It was fun to see Mia win over the rest of the club too, where they all had her back too. I could have done with out the drama, but at least now the threat is taken care of once and for all.
I also really liked Mia's friend who came to see her. Shar was a hoot and fit right in.
This is a follow up to the prequel, which I recommend you read first to understand Mia's struggles. Trust me it's worth it. This is the type of MC romance I like. They don't treat their women like crap, the cherrish them and respect them. I love J.E. Daelman writing and this new series so far has not disappointed. Axel shows patience with Mia as she works through her demons in this story. She struggles with trust and Axel understands that and doesn't push. Mia is a strong h who has been through hell and I love that she doesn't hide away. It's great seeing a H who truly stands by his woman. You get interaction with all the brothers in the MC and I look forward to their stories as well.
Axel claimed Mia as his old lady but he knows he still has to earn her trust. After being falsely imprisoned for a crime she did not commit, Mia is finding her footing and although the charges have dropped she is reluctant to trust. Axel though is proving he is the man he is promising to be, can Mia find her happily ever after and what happens when an old danger comes lurking?
I almost gave this a 3 star because Mia's back story is not really revealed. I did not realize there was a book #0 before it so now I am reading that and the pieces have all fallen together. I thing overall good series, has a couple of things that are head scratchers but the overall concept of the story is good.
So good. I really like that it's not just about the main couple falling in love (i do love all the love tho of course) its slow going with them but no less beautiful when it happens, It's about the whole club coming together to build up the club, supporting each other, and it's true family feels. I'm looking forward to the next one 😀
The romance and the suspense parts are thin and dull but the day to day in this series is fun. I've burst out laughing more than once and I'm on Fox's book. It's more of a "slice of life" kind of series with a bit of romance, and a bit of suspense mixed in.
Low 3. I wish the like intro book would’ve just been their story and been done with it. They didn’t have any growth in their relationship, I don’t think they had a single emotional conversation but what they have sex and alls well? You can have a relationship without having sex immediately but it seemed like they didn’t even really have a relationship before the sex. It was stupid. I think the bad guys were a stupid storyline too. Cara’s uncle that she didn’t talk to is mad she’s dead? I mean fair enough but why is he wanting to kill Mia, and would Gunner go see him instead of telling Axel and them where he was. I also hate how the other club kept apologizing, it’s not gonna change anything and she still doesn’t like them no matter what they say. I want to like the serious and be attached to the other people to read their stories but the writing also just wasn’t good that I think the whole series will be lacking. Kinda sad bc I was looking forward to getting into another mc series.

This new series is AWESOME! The story continues from our introduction in Truth and Lies. Axel takes Mia as his Old Lady to protect her. He wants her heart will he get it? She had been with another MC and was betrayed by those close to her. Can she trust again? When she came out of jail, she caught Axel's eye while working in a diner. She is laying low, trying to go unnoticed by those that betrayed her. Raging Bulls MC knows something wasn't right with Mia's situation and sets out to help her make things right, some of the guys in her old MC also know they let things go that they should of questioned. As everyone sets out to make things right for Mia, she needs to learn to trust and let her walls down so she can have what her heart wants. Can't wait to see where this series goes this is a great start! So many twists, turns, and laughter mixed into one story.
To protect Mia, Axel made her his ol' Lady, but can he get her heart? Having been betrayed by those closest and having spent time in jail for a crime she never did, even now with the truth having been revealed, Mia still can't trust easily. But with Axel by her side and a club willing to listen and support her can she learn to open up again, and maybe even love? But troubles still brewing, for the club and Mia, will it ever settle? Axel and Mia are just perfect for each other and the Raging Barons are another bunch you cant not love! I cant wait to see where this series takes us! With suspense, twists, teasing desires, action, humour, drama and more. The story holds your attention and the characters make you want to stay!
This is sort of the continuation of Mia and Axel’s story, and it’s got lots of stuff going on. I don’t want to talk about the story details, but I do want to say that there were very small moments that made this story good. The emotions did it.
The characters are really good. Yes, this is MC-lite, but there was plenty of 1 percenter stuff going on. Disposal was definitely necessary. The MC guys were totally cool, the skanks were lazy and entitled, and Mia and her friend Shar were cool.
KU read, highly recommended. There are grammar and spelling mistakes, along with missing words, but you can usually figure it out. I liked it enough to give it 4 stars.
Definitely read the prequel first, but this book definitely won't let you down! This is the continuation of the story of Axel and Maria.. First he saved her, and now they are trying to learn how to save each other. I loved that they didn't just jump right into the middle of a relationship, but showed them both working for it; and I loved getting to see more of the MC members. I love the new prospects, and the way that the whole MC has claimed Maria and Shar as their own. This is hot, fun, witty, action packed and will leave you waiting for more.
I was looking forward to reading this book after reading the prequel to get the background on this book and it certainly didn’t disappoint. I really enjoyed it and found it to be addictive. Although this is a romance book, themes of family feature heavily which I really liked. I loved Mia and Axel and although their romance was slow burn it was sweet to watch it build up. I also liked that there were chapters told from other brother’s perspectives. I would recommend giving this book a read.
Yay so very glad that Mia finally got what she deserves and Axel is not only a great President of the club, but a wonderful and loving man for Mia. Target and Chaos were great also. Sad for Mr Jenkins but very happy that he left his business to Axel. I totally adored Shar. Very glad that Brandy and Bubbles are gone as well. Totally lazy and useless individuals. Happy reading.
Wow just wow. Everybook by J.E. Daelman just blows me away. This book is the first in this new series and I love the Brothers in this book and the antics they are to are awesome. Axel and Mia are awesome together. Mia is still trying to wrap her head around everything that happened to do with his baby momma and Mia. Mia is such a strong caring woman. I absolutely love the banter between the brothers. I so can’t wait to see what is in store for this series!!!!
I can honestly say that Jan Daelman has a real talent for writing a story that makes you want to be there in their world. This story of Axel and Mia was so fantasic that it made me want more. I loved this story. Axel an alpha male with a soft side and wanting to right a wrong and Mia a strong woman who has been hurt and betrayed in a way that makes you want to hug her. READ READ Ms. Daelman books you cant go wrong.
Wow, another great read! You will have a lot of laughs in this one. But on a serious note, who is after Mia. Things start to become so concerning a couple hits out on her and the club is upset. Who is behind all this and will Mia ever be able to overcome the hardship of loosing 5 years of her life. Will Zara be ok? And how will Target and Chaos be involved with the club. So without further ado grab your copy and enjoy the ride.
Yesterday was hard for everyone. A small town always feels the loss of someone like Jenkins. He was popular with everyone. The older ones loved to talk to him, reminisce and know he was listening, the families stayed with him as he never charged more than he needed to and the younger ones went to him for advice and to keep their first vehicles running as long as possible.
This book is so good. Mia and Shar are a trip together. Both feisty and fearless. It's good Mia has her bff by her side with all the MC testosterone. Axel is patient, kind and saw a future with Mia. The two together make a great team. They worked hard to get the HEA they deserved. This book is packed with suspense and so much humor. With a strong brotherhood they have become a family. This is worth reading.
It was nice to read Axel and Mias story the rest of the way. As far as MCs go, they kill a bunch of people but its told and you dont see too much, do mi ki d on the violence. I like Mias BFF and wonder if shell be Hammers or Chaos girl. Best part, they tossed the skanks out on their butts. I downgraded a star as the writing style lacked a smooth flow. Transitions between scenes were rough or non-existant and it needed another editing sweep. Small issues though.
An entertaining read with a variety of secondary characters who are members of the M. C. As it is a continuation, you really need to read book 1 in order to understand the reasons Mia is being targeted, although I think they are undeveloped and shallow.
In my opinion, there has been no comprehensive explanation written by the author as to why Mia was relentlessly hounded and unsupported by her former M.C. That is the main reason I did not give more stars.
Definitely read the prequel first so you won't have any confusion with what is happening. This is the second part of Axels and Mia's story. It had a strong H but an even stronger h with loyalty, sweet heat, drama, danger, betrayal. It just pulled me in right from the start and kept me there. I just absolutely loved it and can't wait to read the next one! A definite must read
For anyone who loves J.E. Daelman books this new series won't let you down. It was funny, witty, hot, fast packed and lots of sexy bikers and strong women. The story takes you on a journey from page 1 and doesn't stop till the end. So much potential for a fanbloodytastic new MC. The Raging Barons.
I loved reading this book and finding more out about Axel and Mia. honestly you can get thru this book as a stand alone but it does help to get a bit more context to some things if you read the prequel in the series. besides that, it was hot, i loved it, and can't wait for more. I have Fallen in love with J.E. Daelman's MCs and can't patiently wait for the next!
Mia was railroaded and convicted of a crime she didn’t commit, while she was trying to protect those she loved. After she is released she starts to get her life on track when she keeps finding herself surrounded by motorcycles and people wanting to talk to her. the relationship between Mia and Axel was such a beautiful one to watch finally unfold.
Daelman has a great series in Raging Barons. The characters are relatable and likeable. It is sweet to watch Axel and Mia's relationship develop into love and how Mia's energy and personality change the atmosphere in the clubhouse. The brothers work together to stop illegal activities in their town and you will end up falling in love with the club.
I have read the first 2 books I think there are 2 more to go. I really like reading this brotherhood as I have read others that are totally sexual - with no real thoughts on anything but get laid. (BOWERMAN) Axel & Mia will be so caring and loving to enlarge this group of mis placed warriors and they are all so ready to help like a family. Now to find good women for them to care and protect.
