He whispers over my shoulder, hands inviting themselves to grip the railing in front of me so I become a prisoner between his inked arms. I swallow.

His head shot up and his tearful eyes met mine "How much what?" he whispered back. I shrugged and held my arms around my body, almost to comfort myself "How much was the bet for?" His eyes widened and he let out an exasperated sigh "W-W-hat?" "Well I want to know how much I'm worth." It pained me to ask this question but I wanted to be strong. He shook his head and hesitated a few times before finally speaking "It doesn't matter Emma, your priceless to me. You mean everything -" I held up my hand to cut him off "So you were willing to risk something that meant everything to you for something that means absolutely nothing? Please tell me what you risked me for?!" He sighed and looked at the floor, clearly in shame.

#First book in the Queen series# Kylie Jones, daughter of Robert Jones President of the Hells Dragons MC. Her story is a little different. She was once the shy princess of the MC hanging around the clubhouse waiting to be claimed by her knight in shining armor. Her fifteenth birthday was supposed to be a grand celebration, but turned out to be a dreadful nightmare. Abducted by her father's enemies, she disappeared without a trace. Ten years later, she's back. Out on a mission to kill the man who sold her out. The quiet little girl was long gone. In her place stood a stunningly beautiful independent woman. Outspoken, bold and dangerous, even slightly unhinged. The ten years had been nothing like a walk in the park. It had been a constant fight for survival. The woman who returned was cold as ice, known to the world as The Queen of Assassins. Damon Miller. VP of the Hells Dragons MC. He lost the light of his life ten years ago. The shy little girl was supposed to be his Old Lady when she came of age, not to disappear without a trace. What happens when she comes strutting back into their lives on the day of her supposed burial? Will the power of love reconnect them? Or will she stick to her mission, getting herself and her family into more danger?

Ashley Martin has been through more grief than a person experiences in their entire life and carries baggage that no kid should ever entail. Tyler Miller is the school's scandalous bad boy who acts on impulse, blinded rage and will single-handedly destroy anybody who stands in his way. Then all of a sudden, they're thrown together and despite their destructive past, they're forced to overcome their differences. It's time for Ashley to stop running away from his death glares, blank stares and that spine-chilling scowl that reminds her just how little he cares. Driven by a whirlwind of secrets, a class assignment and midnight walks into the past, things should start working out. But then fate kicks in; hard-hitting and soul-crushing. It's a fight-or-flight situation, a reincarnation of her past, a chance for him to right the wrongs he did by her. A second chance is like giving someone an extra bullet for their gun after they missed you the first time round. So here's Tyler's gun. Here's Ashley's heart. And here's to their second chance, however hopeless it may seem.
