Piper: The one constant lesson in my life is to fight. Fight for survival, fight for my family, fight for those who can’t fight for themselves. What happens when family stops fighting for you? What do you do when they just give you away, handing you over to the devil himself? I guess this is where all that training takes hold. This is where the test begins. I was born and bred to win. There is no other option in my mind. Sometimes, though, you have to know when to stand and fight and when to lie low and bide your time. Lying low wasn’t easy, but in doing so, I found something else, something new. Someone else worth fighting for. Now the fight of my life is not only for me but for the man I’ve fallen for. Some people are worth the risk of losing it all. Swift: Being the President of a motorcycle club isn’t easy. I knew that going in, but knowing every one of my brothers is counting on me, trusting me, that’s a weight on my shoulders I’ve become too comfortable with. When someone finds a weakness in MY security, sneaks into MY compound, and fools MY men, I know this is a job I need to handle personally. I will take on hell itself to keep my brothers safe. Hell, however, comes in the form of a small, blonde wildcat with claws as thick and long as her thighs. She knocks me off my feet, keeps me reeling, and never backs down. She’s knocked my world off its axis and stolen my heart. And she’s done it all with her fist held high, and feet firmly planted in the future I want us to build. Together.

Izzy: Growing up as part of one of the most ruthless families in the world was bad enough. Being blind is worse. Especially when my family sees it as a weakness and wants nothing more than to torture me for things I can’t control. That’s okay, though. I was getting away as fast and as far as I could. I just had to find a way out of my evil brother’s clutches. When I hear a noise coming from a secret room, everything changes. After finding the door in the house I was born and raised in, and realizing just how sick and demented my brother is, I know my only option is to do my best to help. I didn’t count on my brother catching me, tossing me in a cell, and throwing away the key. There is no one to save me. No one to care if I live or die… or so I thought. Hitter: Watching my best friend and Club Prez fall in love should have me balking at the thought of the same happening to me. Especially after the hell Piper and Swift went through to end up together. Instead, though, I crave that connection with someone. I crave the love and affection they share, but with my lifestyle, I ain’t holding my breath. Then I see her, an Angel, my Angel. Dirty and broken down, locked in a cellar, and I know she’s mine. Mine to save, mine to protect, and mine to cherish for the rest of our lives. Now my only goal is to find the one who needs to pay for clipping her wings.

Loki: They call me crazy, psycho, insane. Like I care. The only people's opinions I actually give a rip about are my brothers. Hell, they know me better than anyone and there is no doubt I’m all those things and more. The difference is, they know that even if everything I do seems crazy, it's always for the good of my club and my family. I would do anything to protect my brothers, my club. That’s all I ever needed, until I walk in on the most perfect sight out of my deepest darkest fantasies while out on a job. A little sprite of a thing cutting open some d-bag on her dining room table. One look, one glimpse of that silver blade creating my kind of art and that was it. I found my reason for the insanity… And she looked back at me with the same beautiful, insane, glint in her eyes that I know so well. Halle: Why do men think they can come into your life, hit on you and then try and take what you aren't willing to give? I will never understand… and unfortunately for this mofo, he clearly never saw me coming. He saw a small woman with bright blonde hair and thought it would be easy to take everything from me. But now I can take great pleasure in demonstrating just how wrong he was. This sorry excuse of a dungbejtle burst into my house and ambushed me. The only polite thing to do was to give him a warm welcome, right? What I didn’t expect was another man bursting in through my front door as I was having my fun. I never would have thought I could fall head over heels for anyone… but there is no mistaking when this mystery man’s eyes meet mine over the glued down family jewels of my unfortunate prisoner… this one? He’s mine. Note From Author: This title is 18+ and contains topics some might find distressing, please see the beginning of the book for a listing of potential triggers. Do not try this at home!

Comp: “Don’t let the scars of your past define who you are in the future.” Yeah, I’ve heard that all before. But what they don’t tell you is how impossible that is when you look in the mirror and see those same scars every day of your life, right there on your face. Yeah, not so easy to get over. Then she comes running into my life, a ray of sunshine followed by a wildflower… and I fall hard. The last thing I want to do is tie her down to a beast like me. The only question is, will I be able to hold the beast back from his soulmate? Sunny: Being on the run from a crazy ex trying to take my daughter is bad enough. Running into a motorcycle club and falling for a broken biker might be even worse. Comps determined to push me away, and I won’t beg any man for anything, ever. But when he’s kidnapped, and it’s all my fault, I can’t help but wonder if I’m the one that’s broken, that’s damaged? I know we belong together, and I will do anything in my power to make him realize it. That is, if he can get over his past scars, and I can outrun mine.

Grim: Losing loved ones is nothing new to me. Life is short and seems even shorter for the people I love the most. I refuse to lose anyone else. I have dedicated my life to saving people in need. My brothers will always come first, though. Until I see her bruised and beaten on the side of the road. I vow right then and there to heal her and protect her. After one night with her under me, I know I want this woman in my life forever. Unfortunately, when I wake to find her gone, I worry she doesn’t feel the same. That will not stop me, though. I’ll find her and prove I can be whatever she needs, and maybe, just maybe, she can be the one who heals me. Jade: Men… why do we need them in our damn lives, anyway? They think they can take take take with no consequences. I only trusted one man in my life; now he’s gone and I’m left missing my dad every day. Against my better judgment, I let someone badger me into dating again. One silly little date quickly turns into one of the scariest moments of my life. Then I’m stuck racing through the woods, down a country back road, with ripped clothing and no hope of getting back home. Or so I thought. When I hear a motorcycle in the distance, I run faster, harder. Not another man, not now. But when he pulls over and gives me soft but concerned eyes, I melt just a little. It doesn’t take me long to fall for his charms, but sexy rough bikers don’t go for women like me. So once again, I ran the next morning. I didn’t realize I was leaving such a big part of my heart with him.. Or that I was taking a very big part of him with me.

Halle and Loki are a match made in hell doing their damndest to build their own little slice of heaven together. But life isn't always in our corner, is it? We’ve seen them crazy, them reckless, but it's time to see them vulnerable.
