Wanted: someone to hand feed me Doritos so my hands don’t get orange. No weirdos.
Belle Pena was an editor. Not a writer.
When her brothers challenge her to create a dating profile, she makes up the most random biography she can think of. She never, not ever, thought she’d find anybody to respond. But she was sorely mistaken.
Sadly, she finds that she has way more interest than she ever could’ve imagined.
But only one profile catches her eye.
Bruno never meant to take the dating app seriously. Being the last single man in his band of misfits, he’s happy being the odd man out. Women spelled trouble, and he had enough trouble in his life to last him through the next decade.
Only his newfound family doesn’t feel the same. One innocent ‘sure’ has the women of the Souls Chapel Revenants MC creating him a dating profile that is too spot on to be comfortable. And just when he decides to delete the app entirely, a particular face catches his eye.
One innocent question of ‘Belle is that you? Do you remember punching me in the throat in high school?’ has him stepping into trouble neck deep, and he doesn’t even realize it until it’s too late.
Shakedown is the final book in the Soul’s Chapel series and I am sad! I love these guys so much! We finally get Bruno’s story and Belle’s HEA as well. I loved learning about Belle as her siblings got their stories and I think Bruno is a perfect match for her.
Overall, Shakedown continues the child kidnapping story arc. But, the danger is amped up for sure. Assassins everywhere, determined to get to Bruno. I really loved how unique both characters are, and how they were happy being independent and would have been happy, but realize that they each bring things to the relationship that compliment the other person. Belle certainly wouldn’t be in a relationship with just anybody-she would chose to be alone. But Bruno complements her and understands her and vice versa. It is a really balanced relationship.
I am sad to see the series end because I love the Soul’s Chapel MC and their mission, but when one series ends, another begins so I have that to look forward to as well! Shakedown was just pure enjoyment!
