Bones: Book 10 in the Rebel Wayfarers MC saga Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 184 ratings

Raised in a hellhole echoing with the sounds of conflict, Bones most profound childhood memory is of the day he died. Decades later, he has built an empire where he is king. His brothers have his back, and life is good. So good, he doesn’t realize what’s missing until he meets her. Ester seems to be the one woman capable of looking beyond his mask and seeing … him.

Full description:
Salvador Ramos’ world was upended the day before he turned twelve. The stick-thin son of a small-time drug king, his demand for justice fell on deaf ears, and the identity of his sister’s killer remained a mystery. From that day forwards, Sal vowed he would never forget how it felt to be powerless.

Now he’s ready to make good on that promise. Positioned as one of the dominant outlaws in Chicago, he deals from a place of strength and power, leveraging fear as a weapon. He is a leader among men, having honed loyalty through harsh lessons, and earned trusted friendships until none can stand against him. He is Bones.

Bones. A man who looks like a monster. Covered in tattoos, black and grey, with hardly any inch of skin left bare. A hundred different sigils and symbols on each arm, ink crawled up his neck like the collar of a closely fitted shirt. Black and colored ropes of pictures disappeared underneath his shirt. Strong hands, with muscles that danced beneath the images as he moved. Bones wore his skin like a shield, a barrier to hold at bay those who wouldn’t put in the time to know who he is. Who didn’t care enough to learn about the man behind the bars written on his skin. The ink as isolating as any jail cell unless you held the key.

Ester has been on her own since she was ten. She spent much of that time on the run from her own fears, failing to escape from the demons in her mind. Her life on the fringe of society has given her a unique perspective on humanity, and a cautious but abiding curiosity about the nature of people. She sees pain and terror everywhere, except when she looks at him. Bones alone helps relieve the piercing agony of her thoughts.

He should be frightening to a woman like her. But he wasn’t. He isn’t.

18+ due to explicit content.

    ML deMora is such a wonderful wordsmith. This book is absolutely fantastic. I can't gush about it more. I have wanted to know Bones' story since I read Slate for the first time and I was not disappointed. He and Ester are such phenomenally complex characters. I love reading ML because she gives you the life of her characters and not just a glimpse into a small portion of their life. You will fall in love with Bones and Ester just as I have. And the suspense aspect does not disappoint. You are left anxiously panting for the next in the series to be released. I know I am.
    This is book 10 in her Rebel Wayfarers series. I highly recommend you read them all and in order to get the full Rebel experience. Be forwarned that these books are a continuation of one another and are interwoven with the other books in the series.

    I had preordered this book the end of January and was very excited to win an ARC from MLD and it arrived on Valentine's Day!!! I am a RWMC addict, addicted since book one. Book 10, Bones, oh my, this was definitely worth the wait!!!!! Bones and Ester both have pasts and neither believe in relationships. I really loved how their relationship evolved and how they completed each other. I promise you won't put it down till the end. Another great addition to this series. Now waiting on Fury's story.

    I am so in love with Bones and Ester`s story! MariaLisa is extremely talented, she has me so hooked on this series! I can't even imagine being in her head when she writes lol. Her books are a new genre for me and I'm so glad I went and started from the beginning. Hard Bones and a soft Ester, makes a powerful and beautiful combo. I laughed and yes I cried with this one. Her characters are very loud and in charge, and I highly recommend this one and all the books in this series! Huge kudos.

    I've been hooked on this series since book #1 (Mica) and have eagerly pounced on each release as it becomes available (or have pre-ordered it) and what I have thoroughly loved is that each character that shows up in subsequent books stays true to his/her character, while you get more layers added to their characters (like Mason, as an example).

    In this book, we have Bones, a man who has disguised who he is with a roadmap of tats and piercings. Only, a homeless waif, Ester, tells him that she "sees him". Over the course of several meetings, some chance and some not-so-chance, he sees the beauty that is hers and claims her as his long before he brings her into the fold. Dealing with club business that spans coast to coast and brings old enemies out in the open has the Rebels running (and flying and riding) to and fro but he NEVER forgets to make sure that his "beauty" is safe.

    I loved Ester's quirks and how Bones loved her wholly and how he was mindful of what she endured as a child, always gentle and kind, even though that's not the man he is to the rest of the world. And I loved how another "connection" was made with one of the main characters who does a lot to ensure the Rebels stay safe in this crazy electronic age. He may never get a full story of his own, but his character has grown over the past ten books.

    At times poignant, others sad, still others funny or steamy, Bones is an installment that any fan of the Rebel Wayfarers does not want to pass up.

    This book was a little hard to follow in the beginning, but I had read the other books in this series and loved them, so I stuck with it. And it turned out to be just as amazing as the others. I really liked that the author brought characters from the other books in this series to give you incite as to where everyone fell into place making the entire story line complete, like Myron finding his sister. Glad Bones found love and happiness. Hopefully there will be more books to this fabulous series of the Rebel Wayarers MC

    This series just keeps getting better while building anticipation on what’s to happen next in the RWMC. Our beloved Mason continues to arrange people and situations to his and the Rebel’s benefit while the reader experiences just how much effort it takes to do the job of a national president. As Bones weaves himself through the years, first as a Skeptic then a Rebel, he also weaves himself into a cautious relationship throughout the seasons with his Beauty, Ester who wants doings not things. As they dance around each other Bones finds his heart and finally understands Ester’s strange way of looking at the world. Neither of them had an easy start to life but Bones who covers himself in tattoos to mark his journey and keep others at bay is surprised to learn that Ester truly sees him beneath the markings. Ester and Bones are strong characters in their own right and are surrounded by secondary characters we have met before making this story more. There are twists and turns to the dealings and conflicts from before and new surprises that pop up. The next book can’t come fast enough!

    5.0 out of 5 stars More DeMora Magic
    Reviewed in Australia on March 6, 2017
    I've always thought of the Rebels and their families as an extension of my personal circle of friends. With each book I've got to know them a little better, sharing a part of their lives, and loves, in a way that’s changed my world for the better.
    In this 10th novel of this awesome series, this remains true. But this time MariaLisa DeMora has presented her female lead via the first person POV, giving us an even deeper insight into the workings of Ester's mind. Bones' description of her as "beautiful and fey, gentle and kind-hearted" is enriched by the perspective we get through the quirky inner ramblings of this tortured soul. And thus with Ester, and equally with Bones, our fictional friendship is developed through the gradual unravelling of personality and heart, the intricate layering of characters for which I so admire this author.
    And then there is the way she weaves their stories together, melding her protagonists’ hearts only after embroiling us in their separate tales and the wider tapestry of the Rebel Wayfarers MC. There is a distinct rhythm in this writer’s work, a heartbeat that accelerates with the adrenaline charged action, then shifts to 2 heartbeats when love is found, and drops to a steady calm pace once peace is found. Perfection. That’s how I think of this woman’s writing throughout this series. And it just keeps getting better.

    Bones finds his one in the unlikeliest of places. With Esther having a childhood as horrific as she did, she was like an innocent breath of fresh air. Through their love story is more of the RW's problems being sorted and some new ones added. Loving this series more with each book x
