Book 1 of the Hellhounds MC Series Camilla Aguado would never tell you she had an easy life. Her mother never wanted her, her father was an alcoholic who owned a bar... the irony was not lost on her. She really only had one family, The Hellhounds MC. The only cliche about her life was that she was in love with her best friend's brother, Roman. He was her protector, the one who helped her when she had no where else to go. Of course, he never knew she loved him. Once she had the chance she left Desert Creek, Nevada, hoping to never come back. Roman Santiago never thought much of little Camilla. With her being a year younger than him, and his sister's best friend, he never saw her as anything more than someone who needed protecting. Once she left, he moved on to other opportunities. Now, almost a decade later, he runs The Hellhounds MC. He never thought he'd see Camilla again, that is until a weird twist of fate pulls her right back into his orbit. WARNING: Mature Content

But it wasn't without its struggle. Tatum Hartley. Biology student, aspiring doctor, and current assistant to the physical therapist for the Holloway Falcons. She adored her job, except for the fact that her most time-consuming patient was the one who wanted to be there the least. But given his knee was smashed in, she couldn't say the attitude was unexpected. Not to mention, the investigation into who almost ended Brady's career was still ongoing. Nobody seemed to know exactly what happened that night- or rather, they just weren't willing to say. Sticks and stones may break their bones, but their secrets are what will cast the final blow. ●・○・♥︎・○・● Approximately 93.4k words Complete

Since he left the love of his life to take over the mafia his brother turned down. He's the shell of the person he used to be, he feels he's lost himself forever. 🌹✨🌺 "You're so beautiful." He grins leaning down to peck my lips. "You're glowing with happiness. You have no idea how honored I feel to be able to put that smile on your face." I feel my cheeks heat at the compliment as I melt into the mattress. "Your smile was the first thing I fell in love with. Then it was your eyes and your laugh." Him staring down at me with such intensity has my heart beating wildly against my rib cage. His hands gently cup my face, "I never fell out of love you with you, Violet, but everyday I can't help but fall all over again." 🌹✨🌺 "Baby talk to me." Aless snaps me out of my thoughts as he slowly inches closer to me. His arms hesitantly grab my face and wipe away my tears. "Bad dream." I whisper sniffling. "He had me." My heart breaks just thinking about it. "And he hurt them." The way his eyes darken with rage show me he knows who I'm taking about. He looks down to my stomach, his eyes soften as he lays two kisses in the middle. "I'm going to kill him." His words should scare me, instead they make me feel protected.
