story of Rafael and Omari
This is a boss x employee to more dark romance, featuring Rafael and Omari, and is book three in the Devil’s Mayhem MC series.

Rafael is the President of the Devil’s Mayhem MC. He ends up being the guardian to his six month old nephew named Rafael but he has no idea how to look after a child.

Omari is unemployed and crashing with his sister. He applies for nanny position but he gets there, he meets Rafael and realises they have history together. Rafael remembers Omari but he is desperate enough to hire him.

This book started off with a bang, I will state before you jump in to read the CW. We got to see Rafael’s childhood and it was not good. Then fast forward, there is another loss. Which I was a little shocked and cried a little.

This is fast paced. Big Raf and Omari are instantly attracted to each other. Raf has a bi awakening early on and rolls with it, after getting over the fact Omari is his nanny, goes for what he wants. Raf gives off major Papi vibes, but Omari doesn’t take his crap and also doesn’t see him like everyone else does.

Omari is a baby whisperer, he falls for Big Raf and Little Raf quickly, and doesn’t hide his feelings. Omari is soft where Rafael is all hard edges, they make a great pair. There is drama with his ex BFF and his boyfriend, but Raf eventually sorts it out. They get their HEA, and it’s pretty swoony. Yay!

We get to see cameos from previous books in this series and also get introduced to some new characters. Loved Omari’s sister!

Boss x employee to more
Single guardian x Nanny

This was really good. It had all the feels and the progression of the story was perfect. It didn't drag or didn't feel rushed. I've enjoyed the other books in this series as well.

I thought this book was fantastic and it put me into a book slump. I loved the way Prez took charge of his sexuality and also took care of his nephew and Omari. I knew something bad happened to him, and we learn of that unfortunate back story. We also learned about other members lives and I can’t wait to see what the next book is

I loved the found family aspect that developed between Big Rafe, Little Rafe, and Omari after Big Rafe gained custody of his nephew. It was heartwarming to see how Omari wasn’t intimidated by Rafe and stood his ground during the nanny interview. Watching this big, intimidating biker slowly fall in love with both his nephew and his nephew’s nanny was such a sweet journey. I especially appreciated how Rafe was vulnerable with Omari—you could really feel his inner struggles and his fears of being a failure in certain situations. It was powerful to see him work through those feelings and come to terms with the fact that some things were simply beyond his control.

The other bikers brought great personality to the story and really helped build out the found family theme. I truly enjoyed this book—it was such a comforting, heartfelt read.
