Elle Burrow goes on a road trip that will change her life forever. Her intention was to meet her estranged father, but what she finds instead is danger and devastation. Elle wants so badly to release the pain, the memory of it all. Can she become the powerful woman that would someday stand beside the leader of the club? Will she be the person who could take another life if needed? She was a college grad in business and a photographer, not a killer. Her one shining light in it all was the man who would not only take over the club but also her heart. Benelli Neroni wasn't ready to take over the reins of being the Unfortunate Souls president, but in tragedy, you do what it takes. Will he be able to rise and make the Unfortunate Souls MC what he's envisioned it could be? The club, started by soldiers, back home from a tour overseas. They wanted to keep that brotherhood, that bond alive, along with the love of the ride. Can he make it more? Can he save those that cannot save themselves, especially from the Vengeful Demons MC? Follow the story of Benelli and Elle as they take on all that life throws their way, together.

Benelli and Elle

This is my first time reading this author and she did an amazing job with this story. This is a page turner and you can't wait to see what happens next. This story covers a lot of territory and there are some trigger issues for some people, but it wasn't really extreme. This club is about family, friends and love, but especially getting rid of evil scum and protecting the innocent. You'll love all of the characters and especially Brenna, because she is just a doll and quite sassy and smart to be five years old. Happy reading.

Elle is in search of a father she never met. Her mom is supporting the decision to seek him out, that being said the reunion is short lived when another MC is knee deep in sex trafficking. Elle becomes close to Benelli from the beginning, she finds herself falling hard for the man who is quickly capturing her heart.

Very good new series to me. I am anxious to see where the series goes. Had a few twists I was not expecting that added to the overall story.

Benelli's Elle is book 1 in the Unfortunate Souls MC series by Debbie Mitchell and Leslie Staffey. It has gritty action, some violent scenes, hot bikers included and its a story of two individuals finding love in the world of the MC. It had several epilogues that I love. I truly enjoyed the book. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Wow, just wow

Great read. Benelli is hot and just gets hotter as the book progressed! From becoming a dad to a lost little girl to moving the club into rescuing girls from traffickers. So protective of his “girls” always trying to meet their needs and happiness. Can’t wait to read the rest of the series and see them all find their HEA. No cheating

Oh wow

So I think I have a new MC writing pair for my shelf. These two have a style all their own and it's awesome. The double epilogue approach is well, unique and wonderful. A stunning beginning to something amazing you definitely should invest in these books and their authors.

This book was very different then most mc romance books. It was Beneli's and Elle's story but it also had other characters stories as well. Love it. Can't wait for more in this series.

Loved this book! Any story that has someone overcoming tragedy is a win from me. The sense of family and the humor involved makes it even better. Just read it!

I enjoyed getting to know Elle, Benelli and the other characters. The book gave me a good ending to Elle and Benelli's story but at the same time, captured my interest that I want to know more about some of the secondary characters.

A really good read!

This book deals with some situations that can be triggers for some people, but they are important to the story.
I found the topics (r#*e, human trafficking, and violence) were not quite as difficult to read as I thought they might be. The author did a good job of addressing them without getting overly graphic.
The storyline was quite good and the growth of the characters, especially the female protagonist was nicely done.

Awesome love story between Elle and Benelli. Elle is searching for her father, who happens to be apart of an MC but in trying to locate him she trusts to easily and gets into trouble. Benelli finds Elle and helps her through the tough times she endured and convinces her to stay and heal. In doing so they fall for each other but more trouble comes there way, but sticking together and with the MC family that provides strength and love they come out on top. Hoping for more in this series.

Amaaaaazing

It’s an amazing book. It jumps right in, no long prologues. It’s so well written that you really feel for the poor girl who had to endure so much. I got kinda scared when everything evolved as fast as it did, wondering what else could possibly happen, until an other turn of events. Your attention is kept within the story the whole time. It’s one of those book, you say to yourself ‘just 1 more chapter and I go to sleep’.
I can’t wait to start the next book.

Amazing!

This is a first time read from this author for me and I’m very glad I found it. Benelli and Elle’s story is filled with love, family, unimaginable sadness and in the end, it’s an amazing story about overcoming obstacles while creating connections that last a lifetime. I am looking forward to getting the rest of the stories. And the extended peeks into the future - SWOON.

Benelli's Elle is my first read by these authors and it won't be my last. This book has a great storyline and great H and h. Benelli's patience with Elle and his helping her to overcome her trauma is simply beautiful. Things didn't quite work out the way she hoped it would when she went seeking her father and the Unfortunate Souls MC, but she did find her place in spite of it all.

Grabs you from the first chapter

I received this book as ARC for my honest review. This book catches your attention from the first chapter. Elle and Benelli were made for each other. They completed each other, Benelli supporting Elle through the trauma and finding love. I loved all the characters in this book. One of the best MC books I have read in a long time!!

Benelli & Elle

This is the first book I’ve read by these authors and the first in the Unfortunate Souls MC series. It’s got great potential but reads a bit choppy, probably because it seems like it’s a first novel for the authors. I’m definitely going to read the next book to see what happens.

Good deeds

Elle and Benelli meet under the worst way. Elle went to met her father after 22 yrs. To end up raped and watching her father die . Benelli knew she was his but had to be patient.
Their journey together led them in a direction not only for them but for the MC.
Beautiful written

First time reading any of their books and was in love. I loved the chemistry between the two main characters. I love how he stood up for her and became what she needed. They captured every character made you feel like you were in the book.

Benelli was truly a fantastic and, he is careful of elles feelings by not trying to push her or scare her off but show her that she is strong enough to fight and beat her demons on her own or with him by her side. I would definitely recommend this book and it is a great start to the MC

An amazing story that will hit you in the feels. There's lots to be revealed, things happening and a lot of decisions to be made. It all comes together nicely with an ending that leaves it open for more about this MC. Definitely loved it and I would recommend reading. It didn't disappoint.
