He's guarded, unpredictable, and carries a past that threatens to consume him. Yet, against all logic, she finds herself drawn to him. Jay doesn't do attachments. His past made sure of that. But Lydia is different-she sees through his defenses, past the walls he's spent years perfecting. She's light where he's darkness, order where he's chaos. And no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she keeps finding her way back. But love isn't always enough. With secrets lurking in the shadows and emotions running deeper than either of them expected, Lydia and Jay are about to learn that the greatest battles aren't always fought on the outside-but within.

12 parts Complete Mature
Chloe has always believed that she can only rely on herself, especially when everyone else always leaves. Relationships mean letting someone in and she's not willing to open herself up to that kind of pain, not without some kind of proof that it will last. When the Dark Shadows MC offers her protection from the danger stalking her, Chloe finds herself stuck with the gruff Road Captain, Hawk. He's silent, rude, uncompromising, and she's positive that he can't stand her...but Chloe also can't deny the way her heart races when he sets his steely gaze on her. Hawk learned early not to trust those who were supposed to care for him, finding solace and family among the brothers of the MC who saved him when he was a teen. Watching over Chloe is just supposed to be another way to repay that debt to the club, or so he keeps telling himself. But as the danger surrounding Chloe escalates and the lines blur between them, Hawk faces a choice between remaining guarded and alone, or letting Chloe in. In a world where trust is a rare commodity and danger lurks in every shadow, Chloe and Hawk must confront their deepest fears and decide if love is worth the risk.
