Satan's Devils MC: Colorado Chapter Series by Manda Mellett

I was nineteen when I became Jayden’s knight in shining armour, her Paladin. At only fourteen, she developed a teenage crush on me, the man who rescued her. I gave her time to grow, waiting for her feelings to mature. As years, when I was forbidden to touch her, passed, I never doubted she was mine. I just wasn’t allowed to show it. Circumstances send us to Colorado, away from the restrictions and over-protective brothers. At last we have a chance to be together... moreI was nineteen when I became Jayden’s knight in shining armour, her Paladin. At only fourteen, she developed a teenage crush on me, the man who rescued her. I gave her time to grow, waiting for her feelings to mature. As years, when I was forbidden to touch her, passed, I never doubted she was mine. I just wasn’t allowed to show it. Circumstances send us to Colorado, away from the restrictions and over-protective brothers. At last we have a chance to be together. What could be better? What could be worse? A new club. A new life. Out of my depth, I don’t fit in. A different president and his old lady who’ve been married thirty-six years. That their marriage is on shaky ground spills over into how they treat us. For some reason, Hellfire and Moira want to force Jayden and I apart. Jay and I are just beginning. Or, is it the end? After all this time, will we make it work? Or have the years I’ve spent waiting been wasted? less

Demon Before Nathan died, Violet had been the annoying child who’d followed us around everywhere. As a teenager, she’d developed an annoying crush on me. My promise to my best friend had been to watch over his little sister, a debt I considered paid when she was grown and settled out of state. Ten years later she’s back in my town, this time with a baby in tow. Now twenty-five, she’s the one who’s got me twisted up in knots. But she’s Nathan’s sister... moreDemon Before Nathan died, Violet had been the annoying child who’d followed us around everywhere. As a teenager, she’d developed an annoying crush on me.

Ten years later she’s back in my town, this time with a baby in tow. Now twenty-five, she’s the one who’s got me twisted up in knots. But she’s Nathan’s sister. She needs help, I can give it—as a replacement big brother of course. She’d be horrified if she knew what I’d really like to do to her. Violet It’s embarrassing to remember last time I’d seen Demon I’d been an incorrigible flirt. When we meet again, I realise my feelings have matured, but not changed over the years. I still want him. He doesn’t see me that way, treating me just like he would a sister. Stepping into Nathan’s shoes to help me out of trouble. I do need someone’s help. But it hurts that he’s only offering to keep a promise made to my dead brother. I’ve become involved in a war. Now, because of the debt Demon thinks he owes, I’m dragging the Satan’s Devils into it with me. But having to deal with unreciprocated feelings is nothing compared with keeping my son safe and out of the clutches of his real father. less

InkThe almost-as-tall as me girl with the blue hair intrigued me. As is my normal practice, I’d give her one night, but that’s all. Except, I found, it wasn’t enough. I should have kept to my own rules, but I didn’t. I went back. It’s not forever, I’m not that kind of man. She’s not for me, she’s a citizen and not someone to be pulled into our underworld. Except as I found out, I didn’t need to pull her in, she was already there.Now I’m sitting in a jail cell when it should be her here, not me... moreInkThe almost-as-tall as me girl with the blue hair intrigued me.
