Being Lost (Satan's Devils MC San Diego #1) - Mellett, Manda

. .

Résumé :
Lost All my life, it seems, I've made mistakes. Once, I lost everything. Failure seems to follow me around. I didn't spot what a snake Snake was-he had planned a mutiny right under my nose. Yeah, he did well when he appointed me as his VP. I followed him blindly, never suspecting a thing. Now Snake is dead and I'm the prez. I still spend my days doubting myself, but I've got the whole MC depending on me. If I get it wrong, it won't just be me who goes down. Then I meet her, a woman who needs me to keep her safe. I should warn her to stay far away, tell her I'm not a man she should lean on. I'm not a person to trust when I don't have faith in myself. Patsy Choices, always choices. I thought I did right when I left everything behind to make a new life, choosing which of my two adult children now needed me the most. We should have been safe in our new life-nobody knew who we were. But we've been found. Luckily, before danger strikes, the Satan's Devils ride up to our door. I'm no spring chicken. I'm not looking for a man in my life. But I need protection, I need help. It's time to make a stand and not run anymore. There's only one man I can depend on to keep us safe. The trouble is, he's Lost.

Biographie:
Manda's life's always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she's still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman? There isn't enough space to list everything that's happened to Manda, or what she's learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she's met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected. Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area's claim to fame being the Wilkin's Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter. Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.
