Unbeloved (Undeniable) (Volume 4)

CRAP - I feel hung over after reading this book. It was soooo good, but in an intense, almost depressing with happy edges kind of way.
Real Quick - 10 Things ( BE WARNED - A WEE BIT of SPOILERS)
**********SPOILERS********************************
SERIOUSLY***************

First off - don't read this series out of order.
Second - don't read this thinking Dorothy is finally going to catch a break. I mean, I guess technically, for Dorothy, things were better, but to us readers...d*mn it sucks to be her.
Third- I LOVE Hawk. I wish, just WISH we could have spent more time with Hawk.
Fourth - I LOVE Jase - but in a completely different way. In a F***ed up way, probably much like Dorothy. I wish for him, that he could have brought Dorothy a HEA, but I wish nothing for Dorothy but Hawk. See? F***ed up.
Fifth - Deuce!!!!!!!! - 'nuff said
Sixth - REALLY COX!???!!!
Seventh - WHAT THE F, ZZ??!?!?!?!?
Eighth - WHYYYYYY HAWK, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, LIFE IS NOT FAIR!
Ninth - NOOOOOO PREACHER! NOOOOOOOOOOOO
and tenth - Seriously this was f***ed up, but wouldn't have it any other way.

Life is not a Disney movie, or all bubblegum and Unicorn farts. It's real, its raw...and for some of us, we have to wrestle it, bend it and break it to get what FINALLY is owed.
Totally recommend

I liked this book, however I was disappointed that we didn't get to find out what happened to the other male (trying not to write spoilers here) I hope that we will find out what happens to him in the next couple of books.

I Found the book as a whole ok, but definitely not my favourite of this series thus far,however I would recommend it to others who have read the other 3 books that are before this one.

I laughed and cried so much reading this book. Let me say I love Cox. He's a doggone fool with his comic relief. The story was touching and heartfelt. I loved seeing growth in the characters. I also love how we see fully developed characters warts and all. I only wish Dirty a and Ellie were mentioned more. Can't wait for the next one.

.

I debated writing this review, but felt I wanted to try to share with the author an honest review, to encourage her to write what she knows best. I don't know how to nicely say it, but, I could barely finish this book, as I was bored to death. It was a mix of not really caring about the characters she wrote about, or just the bland story that was told. I can't even compare this to her first novel, it was that different. The spark of her writing was gone. At first, I thought the story had potential to get exciting (the Russian mafia angle) but it just fell flat on its face. I know the author was a little upset at some of the low reviews given, as she has stated she wrote the bland story on purpose, and it wasn't meant to be like the other books. Okay, fair enough, the writer is entitled to write what she wants, but, that doesn't change my opinion. It was still boring, and I could have skipped it to tell you the truth. I agree with some of the reviewers it lacked excitement, it lacked the darkness and evil that Undeniable had. That is what Ms. Sheehan did best. While I thought Undeniable was the best of the series ( Books 2 and Books 3 were okay) I hope she instead of perceiving the lower reviews as a criticism, she realizes that she had a winning formula with her first book. I liked Danny and Ripper's story, liked Cage and Teagen less (she is just annoying period), and I am looking forward to reading about Preacher (and his family, loved it!) and ZZ. Now on a positive note, I LOVED the Epilogue to ZZ's story. Now that is what this club is about. Reading how ZZ was aiming his gun at the supposed woman he loved is the dark and gritty of these stories we have grown to love. Not some sappy love drama....I truly hope the author realizes her strengths in storytelling, and get back to it. If the last installments are written like this one, I will be passing, because I honestly just couldn't care enough to keep reading it. Again, in all fairness, maybe it's because I just didn't care for Dorothy or Hawk, or Jase, or just the story was all over the place. The dark grit was missing. Sorry, I just like darker or more twisted tales. I'm glad many seemed to enjoy it being faithful fans of Madeline....but I can't give this one the thumbs up. I hope she realizes this as she writes the last 2 books, because it would be real disappointing if she continued to tone down the stories in her last installments. The 5 stars for this book was way over rated out of loyalty to the author in my opinion. I don't easily give 5 stars to anything.

This wasn't my favorite of the Undeniable series, but Madeline can do little wrong in my eyes. I would still recommend this story to others because it wasn't bad it just wasn't my favorite. I feel like Madeline could have added a bit more to the plot of this book in particular and I didn't care for Dorothy much.

This book had a different feel for me with having read all the previous books from this series. It wasn't as gritty and raw as scenes at the club have been in the past. It felt more emotional in the telling of the story between Jase, Hawk, and the woman caught between, Dorothy. I really enjoyed this book. It was a nice change of pace but I still enjoy the grit *wink* 4 solid stars!!!!

On the edge of my seat. Leaves with a cliffhanger. I hat that. Hope the author doesn't continue with the cliffhangers. Now I have to play the wait game. Just as the previous books in this series, I love them. Love the character. They are all so different personalities. Makes the book good. Can't wait for the next books in series.

Ms. Sheehan, Brava, Brava, Brava, for Un beloved truly worth the wait. I have to say that I was feeling sorry for ZZ, however not anymore. LOL. UMM I was left a little wanting not knowing how Jase was doing 7 years later, but the book overall was great. This MC series is still my favorite. I can't wait for ZZ and Preacher's story.

I absolutely loved this book and if anyone deserved a happy ending it was Hawk and D.
The twists and turns kept me turning the pages and a few unexpected surprises. I was caught off guard completely, I never saw some of the story line coming which was a great thing.
Although you left me hanging saying some explicit words to you...... It was a great read and well worth it.
Bravo on another great story.

I absolutely love this series! This book was so much more than I thought it would be. Not only do you get to see what happens between Dorothy, Hawk and Jason, but you also get a glimpse at what is and/or has happened with all our favorite MC members. This book will not disappoint. I can't wait to read ZZ and Preacher's stories.

Another stellar book from Madeline Sheehan! I loved Dorothy, Hawk and Jase's story and am so happy with how things turned out. There was a lot of growth for these characters in this book, even if that growth was hard. Things turned out exactly how they should have! Can't wait for more of the Hell's Horsemen!

WOW...JUST FREAKING WOW!!! Damnit I don't even know where to start but this book was freaking Awesome and my fave so far in this series!! I..um...shat I'm going to have to come back later to try and finish my review sheese! SMDH in awe! Madeline Sheehan you freaking rock hard and definitely looking forward to Preacher and crazy ass ZZ's story eeeeek!

Best.MC.series.period!
I love these books.
I usually do not write reviews but after reading the series for the fourth time I decided to.
I think these stories are amazing along with the author.
I can't wait for the next two, Preacher and ZZ.
Hopefully we'll read about the next generation, Ivy and Devin and updates on all the past ones we have loved!

Synopsis
The fourth book in the Undeniable series focuses on the saga of Jase, Hawk and Dorothy. This isn’t a standalone book, so I really can’t give their history without spoiling what happens in earlier books. Suffice it to say, all have made mistakes and it’s a gigantic fakakta biker soap opera all by itself.

The Good and the Not So Good
I abhor cheating and it usually turns me right off a story. There are select instances where I can still enjoy it - if the cheating serves to bring the H/h together (I cannot stand when the hero cheats on the heroine) AND if they suffer painful consequences for that cheating. This is definitely the case here. Jase, Hawk and Dorothy have to own up to their actions that have lead to much wasted time. Much like in real life, there’s regret and recriminations, and they are no quick fixes. It gives a depth to this series that I really enjoy.

This series tends to have one couple coming together at the center of it all, but really it’s an ongoing soap and there are threads of storylines from previous books that continue from book to book. I enjoy that type of storytelling and Ms. Sheehan’s work has been phenomenal in this series. It started as a car wreck I couldn’t look away from, and now as the characters have grown and matured (or in many cases imploded through their own mistakes), I’ve grown to care about alot of them and want to see what’s next in their angst-filled lives.

The only real issue I have with this book is that the love triangle at the heart of it has already played out in previous books as a secondary storyline. There’s a feeling of conclusion rather than discovery, and that just made me feel like not really exploring anything new, just tying up their tale, so that we can move onto the next chapter, which is the next generation of bikers and their old ladies. I enjoyed it but I don’t know if Jase/Hawk and Dorothy’s conclusion couldn’t have played out just as well as part of another book, rather than as the star attraction.

If you haven’t read any of the previous books, you couldn’t jump in on this one and really make sense of it all. If you want a clean end to a book, that’s not the case here - the cliffhanger (which doesn’t affect the ultimate HEA here) is a doozy and really intrigues me - trying to figure out how Ms. Sheehan’s going to make THAT love story work is crazy.

The Bottom Line
This is still an excellent MC series that I’d recommend if you’re into angsty, raw storytelling, just don’t jump in on this book, start at the beginning with Undeniable.

I just love Madeline and her Undeniable series. I always hate the wait for the next book but its worth when it finally goes live. These are must reads for sure. Her first 3 books I have read twice and will add this book to that list and will read for a 4th, 5th and 6th time their that good

This book surpassed my expectations.

I expected it to be like the other 3 previous books and it wasn't.
It is a coming home. A story of 3 people who made choices to get them where they are today.
A love story, a story of healing, of moving on no matter what has happened in the past.

I love this series. It has been such an enjoyable experience to see these characters grow into who they are. But the ending...Talk about heart wrenching cliff hanger. I am so sad to have to wait to see what happens. And how can Preacher have a story when we all ready know the ending. At least with the other books in the series there was some mystery as to what was going to occur. I love the story of Hawk and Dorothy. It was good to see her finally come out on top even though it seems like her life was a real roller coaster. I couldn't imagine a life like that and could only hope for a love that would last that many years and that many trials. Hats off to you Madeline Sheehan for your amazing look into the love life of MCs.

I love this series and Madeline Sheehan, but I did not like this book. I felt that it did not have depth to it. It seemed to drag considerably. It was still a great read, I just felt like it was not as great as the other books in the series.

Book 4 in this series, can an author really sustain the heights of the previous 3 books?

YES... and actually surpass..that's right SURPASS!

First as always toss your preconceived notions and expectations out the window.

This goes back to the beginning .. the beginning of Dorothy and Jase, the beginning of Dorothy and Hawk. We have had 3 books to build up to their story, and now that it is here it does NOT disappoint.

This is NOT a rehash of the first 3 books, this is the collision of 3 lives, the choices they make and the fallout of those choices.

If you have paid any attention in the first 3 books, you won't be disappointed with the flow and the feel of this story.

IF you are looking for cookie cutter, a respin or similar variation of the first 3 books, you WILL be disappointed..

Madeline Sheehan is a premier storyteller and deserves so much more than a 5!

HOLY HELL HORSEMEN! I was waiting on pins and needles for this book and what a freaking ride it was. I can't even begin to express in words how much I adore this series and the characters, each one has a patch on my heart. Every single one of them has a purpose and a special place in this story but my god the writing is brilliant. I read this straight through and only slept 4 hrs but I swear my heart never stopped racing. The build up with all the twists and turns left me breathless as I kept turning pages gasping for more. One you get in the saddle with this book you will ride, sally ride all the way to the motherf***in end ya feel me? Babe..yeah The characters are so well written they breathe life into the pages. I laughed, I cried and went through every damn emotion with these characters as they experienced it. Such an amazing journey to watch Dorothy finally see her self worth and fight for what she wants or better yet who she wants. I knew this book was gonna be amazing I've loved every single one in this series so far but I was grinning like a school girl when I finished this but I NEED more of THIS in my life and cannot wait for the next one. Madeline is a damn genius with her writing talent. The banter is freaking hilarious and I love how we get a piece of all the characters in the books. But Hawk a man with little words but makes damn well sure every word counts. But is that enough? Then there's Jase who she's pined for for years and always left wondering will she ever be good enough and yet they each have a piece of her heart. It's redemption. It's a struggle. A struggle of regrets, fears, choices and mistakes but most of all a struggle to find love, home and family. After all isn't that what life is all about. Take it for a ride and I promise it will be a ride you'll never forget =)

This is going to be really hard to review without revealing any spoilers.

First, I never really had any feeling toward Dorothy in the previous books, not that I didn't like her, but I just waiting on her story to make a judgement. After reading the first page I had compassion for this woman. This is very rare for me, to almost immediately feel something for a heroine right off the bat, especially when I've met them in other books. So kudo's to you Madeline for the stellar opening!

Okay, so here goes, I wouldn't really classify this as a love triangle and I kinda wanted her to end up with the one she didn't end up with. I know, I know, I'm not the majority vote, but I was still holding out hope. However, I will say with the way she wrote the story I absolutely ended up falling in love with the couple and I believe she did justice in telling their story. My only gripe would be is that I didn't feel like I had the closure I should of with the other person.

Unbeloved, I would say is the tamest of the four books in this series, but even so it packs a punch and leaves you wanting more. Without a doubt Ms. Sheehan is one of the best of the MC genre and knows how to formulate a story that will leave you captivated.

Next, we get Preacher's story, it's a back in time story and I can't wait for it. However, I will need some booze and meds to get through it cause it's for sure gonna be a tear-jerker!

After Preachers book we will finally get to see ZZ's story, and well I have mixed emotions about this because in Madeline's books we can expect the timeline to be drawn out over a few decades and well I'm wondering what will happen to all of our old timers. I'm not sure I can fathom reading something like that, but I'm sure the queen B can pull it off!

4.5 stars!!

Wow just wow!!! Have read each one in this series, excellent each and every one. But this one rocked them all, true grit, get down love! Had to stop reading at one point the tears were flowing so much.

"My weakness, my choices, and my decisions-the ones I made and the ones I didn't- all took me down a rocky road filled with retreat, heartbreak, and pain. And eventually, they nearly killed me."

Madeline is the QUEEN of MC books!!!

It feels like I have been waiting forever for this book to come out and it was WORTH the wait!!! The Undeniable series will always be my favorite MC series ever. Unbeloved is a 5 star book that you need to one-click.

Dorothy and Hawk both love each other but we all know from the events in the other books that things are complicated for them. Unbeloved takes place seven years after Dorothy was shot. She has moved away from the club and only has minimal interaction with them when she has to.

It takes a terrible event to set everything in motion for Hawk and Dorothy to be together. Just like the other books in the series their love is a real one and as we all know love is not always easy. I love this series and I will impatiently be waiting for the next book in the series to come out.

PS: I almost cried at parts in this book so be prepared!!

Happy Reading
XOXO R

Emotional overload I think I cried through this whole book. 69% really got me but 86% was a full blown ugly cry. I had to set my Kindle down take of my glasses put my face in my hands and sobbed for about 5 minutes. Just too much!
I was just deeply saddened for all involved. Hawk I don’t know what to say except *sigh* I love him soooo much. I want to say more but don’t want to spoil. I have never liked Jase but even my heart broke for him a little and I felt for him. I still didn’t understand his choices and I still think he was incredibly selfish. Dorothy… my heart broke for her and I understood her a little. I wanted to shake her a few times but so glad when she started to discover herself. Wow a woman’s insecurities can really mess you up. But with age comes wisdom and I really liked the growth her and Jase both went through. Just so much time lost by all of the choices they all made. I just kept thinking how sad to lose so much time.
As for the epilogue all I can say is I KNEW IT!! I see a lot of people had a WTF moment in the epilogue. I have had two theories on whom ZZ will end up with since Unattainable. Assuming this is the direction Madeline is going I got one right. I was so excited and then I started laughing. ZZ’s story is going to be a f****** roller coaster. I can’t wait!!

This talented lady continues to deliver an intelligently constructed story line that sucks you in and leaves you wanting more. This book tops the ranks of any MC books that others attempt to publish.

Another amazing read from The Goddess of MC Books.. than should be her official title. I laughed, I cried and I could barely put it down so I could live a bit of life here in the real world. Thank you MS for writing, don't stop. You inspire me.

Another great book in the series! I really like this series of books as well as the characters in it. Finally, we have Jase, Dorothy and Hawk's story..... I really enjoyed reading on how Dorothy came to her position in the club and then later in her life as well as what lead her to find Jase and then Hawk. I laughed at parts, cried at others and had hope throughout. Their story held me captive and I could not put it down.

Also, I really enjoyed the flow of the book. It was nice to have all the points of view that are both directly and indirectly related to this story and they were easy to follow. Those different POV's helped to give a better angle on the characters.

ZZ's story will be tough... I felt for him throughout the other books but this one had me rethinking my "like" for him. Can't wait to read more in this series.

Long awaited story did NOT disappoint! Of the four, this one had me in tears as the author takes you on an emotional journey through the mind and hearts of Dorothy, Hawk and Jace, each from their own perspective. Powerful read.

I enjoyed this book, probably my second favorite next to the first in the series. I literally burst out laughing at some parts in the book. I liked the characters. Looking forward to the next few in the series. Great job Madeline

This might be my favorite of the series . . . maybe. It is hard to pick.

There is back story, there is current . . . and then there is the usual, yet awesome suspense!

I was so happy with the ending :)

I wasn't really looking forward to reading this book. Don't get me wrong, I was always going to read it just because I love the series but I thought it would just be like filler- something to read until the real story picked back up. I felt like it was going to be about secondary characters that didn't really matter. I can honestly say that I was pleasantly surprised at how much I really liked this book. They all turned out to be people I cared about and I wanted things to work out for them. It's actually a love story. It's about all different kinds of love: between a man and woman, the love of brotherhood, the love of family and friendship. One thing I always have trouble with is the aging of my favorite characters. I guess I fear that they'll be replaced with people I don't know and don't really care about but Madeline Sheehan did an awesome job of maturing the characters and introducing the new ones so that you care about them. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I think it's one of the best in the series.

Each book from this series has been extremely good. Although the characters are intermingled from book to book, the situations are all different & interesting. They're well written and easy to fall right into. 5 Stars

Full of unexpected emotion, I could not put this one down. I laughed out loud at some the antics on this book and I cried on a couple of occasions. You will not be disappointed at all. Totally worth every single cent!
