Full Throttle Heart

Three years. That's how long Chelsea Miller has been outrunning the shadow of her ex, Keith. She didn't change her name, and she didn't hide in a hole. She moved to Florida, reunited with her college best friends Jackson and Sloane, and started building a life for her daughter, Maddie. She isn't looking for a savior; she's looking for a future.

Isiah Thorne was never part of the plan. The President of Thorne Custom Cycles is a man of heavy iron and even heavier silence. He's spent a decade buried behind a mask of cold detachment, a shield he built after his ex-girlfriend, Tiffany, destroyed his capacity for trust. He doesn't do "forever," and he certainly doesn't do domesticity.

But the moment he sees Chelsea, the air in the room changes. It isn't pity that draws him in-it's the way she stands her ground even when her world is shaking. He falls for her the only way a man like Isiah can: hard, fast, and without a safety net.

The Past Never Stays Buried. When Keith finally tracks her down to a neon-lit motel, Isiah steps into the line of fire. But the external threat is only half the battle. A night of vengeful weakness with Tiffany shatters the fragile trust Chelsea was starting to give him, leaving Isiah to realize that protecting her body is easy-it's proving he's worthy of her soul that might destroy him.

From the grease-stained floors of the shop to the raw, dominant reclamation of their connection, Full Throttle Heart is a dark, erotic journey of survival, the weight of the past, and a love that refuses to play it safe.
