This book is really good, and I'm hoping that she continues the series, and we get the rest of the main characters that showed up in the previous books I loved that she and rex finally got there Happily ever after and know that they have their two kids, and she Wasn't so afraid the second time around.

It feels nice to have a bit of conclusion to this series, even if there are still a lot of irons in the fire for future installments of the next generation.
I enjoyed the moments of just Rachel and Rex being featured, I wanted more of the deep emotional connection between them, especially when the pregnancy featured (in three books now) ended up being very anticlimactic. I was super disappointed when Rachel didn’t have her bonding moment with the baby, especially when there was such a build up to her becoming a mother during a more stable time in her life, and felt this was a missed opportunity to further endear her to the reader.
I guess my main complaint with this entire series is that a lot of the women seem one dimensional, as all of the women are depicted as tough, no nonsense people who don’t really like children, or anything traditional and are ALL victims of SA and abuse.
There’s no diversity,while the men have super defining characteristics afforded them. I was invested in the stories due to there being a lot of moving parts and characters, but I’m kinda relieved now that it’s concluded, and was getting depressed while reading several thousand pages of assault victim recollections. It's nice to have commonality in a series, but with so many books in this one, diversity in background and less shared experiences would've made it more interesting.

The final chapter of the Satan's Sinners in West Orange. It was emotional because we're closing the book, in a way, on this chapter of bikers and that is sad for me! But, I loved Rachel. This book was great in closing this part of the world. Rachel was a much less angsty book than I thought it would be. I was ok with that honestly because I just REALLLLY wanted Rex and Rachel to get the happily ever after that they deserved. Rex. Ugh, Rex. He is swoon worthy. Not because he's the dirtiest. Not because he's the prez of the mc. To me, he's swoon worthy because of his devotion to Rachel no matter the years, no matter the distance, no matter the iciness she built up and gave to everyone. I LOVE that his love for her was unwavering. Even when it hurt him so much. Even when SHE hurt him. He knew that she was it for him and that she was the way she was for a reason. He was willing to wait for her to be ready for him. I just really really loved that about him. I actually really loved Rachel too. I felt so emotional for her after everything she had endured over her lifetime. It made why she acted the way she acted and why she secluded herself make so much more sense. We wanna believe that she's just this rude, closed off, bitter woman. But there's a reason she makes us feel that way about her. It's a defense mechanism for her and I totally get that. It makes her feel like she's not vulnerable and that no one can see the vulnerabilities she has. I will say that we were so Wynter heavy in Rex that I was sad that we didn't get as much of her in this book! I really like Wynter and I can't wait to see her in the future! At the end of the day, I love that the angst was so low because I was just so dang happy that Rex and Rachel got the life they should have always had together. With their happy and healthy kids. With the brothers. With the Posse. I LOVE the dynamic between an mc. The found family is my favorite. So that ending though!! I love that we get a glimpse of the mother chapter 30 years from now. It makes them seem so much more real when I can picture them in their 60's! I love picturing everyone with kids and grandkids. I was kind of surprised to see Digger and MaryCat's son on the spectrum as well as Rex and Rachel's. I hope we get to see more of that in future books! I know it leaves Sweet Lips Old Lady unnamed but I REALLY want it to be who I think it is. It would make my romantic heart beat so fast because it would be so cute! I AM OBSESSED with Priest. Obsessed with him. I knew from the moment he showed up that he would be someone I would come to love. I and shipping Priest and Wynter so hard. I need that to happen! Sweet Rain. I can't wait to see how he's changed after enlisting. I really can't. I think he's going to come back a whole different person. Will he join the police force? Will he join The Sinner's?! Who knows?! I know we'll find out though! This series was so good! The interconnection with The Five Points is literally so great. I love how you get bits and pieces of so many series characters in every book! If you're on the fence about reading this series, don't be! It's worth every minute!

Rachel was the second book in the Last Bachelor Duet. This book really brought together so many things from the past to the present.
We have Rachel finally realizing that she's not just the Mc's lawyer but also family. She is accepted as a member of the Posse and the interactions between her and Giulia are priceless. She also is able to start to put her past behind her and stand at Rex's side as his First Lady.
Rex is able to once again rule as the Prez and make some new decisions and rules for the MC. There is a beautiful send off for Bear and some very emotional times.
We get a glimpse of what the future may look like and what may come for the next generation for this chapter of the MC. We also got to see some faces from the Valentini’s, Feckers and of couse our favorite bikers from previous books.
I don't want to say goodbye to these characters, but I hope to see them again when we see the next generation. I can definitely say that it was well worth the wait for Rex and Rachel to get their happily-ever-after.

I say this with my whole heart…If I could give a book infinity stars, it would be this one.
Rachel did not come to play. She knew what she had to do and she did that and more. Also, Rex is truly King because he mad my heart SING so many times. I love their love so much & seeing the growth was so so beautiful. I wish I could experience it all for the first time again.
From the relationship the posse has together to the love the brothers have for each other and their families, to appearances from some Feckers, Hunter & the Valentinis, and introductions to new characters. AHHHHHH I LOVED IT.
Rachel as Rex’s First Lady is badass & when Rex gets into Prez mode

This conclusion to Rex and Rachel's story was awesome! This couple has had so many struggles and catastrophes in their lives, it's a wonder they survived at all, never mind whole, intact and together! And my heart broke for Wynter, and what she was put through. It was devastating to think a parent can do that to a child.
I love how Serena expertly wove the characters from her other series into this book, including the five pointers, Lodestar, and more!
Serena always gives the reader such deep and dirty stories to keep them coming back for more!

I'm so emotional to have journeyed to the end of this series. I ran the gauntlet of feelings. Everyone of these men have a place inside my heart.
Rex and Rachel were a long time coming and the love and pain to get there was overwhelming, but worth it. I can't begin to do this series justice with my words, so you just need to trust me and read it.
If you are a lover of a sophisticated, entwined MC world, then this is a not to be missed series. There was so much packed between the pages. Dark and Dirty Sinners rule!

Regarding Rex and Rachel as a duet:
I feel like Rex and Rachel could have been combined into one book. Or, at the very least, condensed quite a bit. I also didn't love how it felt like another set up for a new series in a way that didn't make the end of this series feel settled, epilogue, notwithstanding.
