For those who love a long-overdue grovel... Tellie... Sixteen years ago, I ran from the life I loved dearly. I'm the daughter of the founding president of the Martyrs in Mayhem MC, but growing up in the club never prepared me for the danger that found me. When I needed him the most, the man I loved wasn't there to protect me or our unborn child. Neither was the club, so I ran. Now my husband is dead, and I've returned home with my sixteen year old daughter. Coming back means facing the life I left behind, my first love, and a secret that could change everything. A secret that has the same eyes and fierce personality as the VP of one of the most notorious MC's in the country. Kian... 16 years ago, I lost the love of my life after I thought she would be waiting for me after a five-year bid. I thought keeping her in the dark would keep us both safe. Instead, she threw it all away and never looked back. Since then, I've buried myself in the Martyrs in Mayhem and women, and done enough prison time to earn my road name ten times over. Now I'm out again just as a war is brewing with a past rival club. As VP, it's my job to protect and lead my brothers. It should have been simple: Take down the Sons. But everything changed when I saw the curly blonde hair that won't leave my dreams. Taking down an enemy? Easy. Earning a second chance with the only woman I've ever loved? Not so much. Especially when she's hiding a secret that could change everything we know about the club.
