Royal Bastards MC: Ponce, PR Chapter Books in Order

Rae B Lake's Ponce chapter of the Royal Bastards MC brings a different backdrop to her biker fiction. Puerto Rico gives the books a vivid sense of place, but the title Death & Paradise tells you exactly how the series wants to use that setting. Beauty and violence live side by side, and nobody in the club gets to forget it for long.

The first books, Death & Paradise and Chaos & Paradise, set that tone well. In one, a club man is ordered to make a woman disappear and learns the job is far messier than expected. In the next, a man comes out of prison carrying grief, guilt, and the burden of becoming chapter president after losing the woman he loved. The series keeps the tropical setting visible, but it never lets the reader mistake that beauty for safety.

That contrast is the draw. Paradise is real, but so is the blood in the sand. The chapter has its own internal rules, responsibilities, and language, and Lake uses those details to make the books feel rooted rather than generic. You are not just in another biker town with a different name slapped on it. This branch has its own history and pressure points.

The grief runs deep here.

So does the loyalty. These books are still about love, but the romance has to fight its way through club business, revenge, and the damage left behind by past failure. Readers who like MC romance with strong atmosphere, wounded heroes, and a setting that feels genuinely tied to the story should have a good time here.

Start with Death & Paradise, then move into Chaos & Paradise. Reading in order helps the chapter dynamics and emotional fallout land the way they should.
