Fight For Her (Devil's Right Hand MC #2) by Mack_2024

Brenna Miller goes by many different names: Shorty, Brenna, and most importantly, Mommy. She fights every day for her daughter, sometimes forgetting herself in the process. In her opinion, life is good. She has her brother, her daughter, a stable job, and a side gig that pays very well. Things are good. She would rather go through life alone, anyway, as that means nobody can hurt her or her daughter. That plan worked until she meets an arrogant man with bright blue eyes and a curiosity for her neither of them understands. Now, she must decide if loneliness is safer, or maybe, just maybe, he is. ------ Driver Roberson is the ruthless Vice President of the Devil's Right Hand MC. His entire life, he was trained to be a fighter, to only think as far as the next fight. Even after he retired his boxing gloves, he followed this motto, one foot in front of the other, one fight at a time. He never wanted anything more than the life he had, owning a popular gym, hosting underground fights, being a part of DRH, and having a different girl in his bed every night. In his mind, life is good. Then how can one girl knock his entire world off its axis? Why does he feel so drawn to her, especially when she constantly pushes him away? Maybe it's fate. Maybe it's lust. Maybe it's true love. But Drive will have to fight for her. ------- Disclaimer: This technically is a sequel to Facing My Demons (Devil's Right Hand MC #1) as it follows all of the same characters. I highly encourage you to read that book first. However, this book can be read as a stand-alone!
