Forbidden desire amid rising danger

A motorcycle club vice president is tasked with protecting his best friend’s younger sister, placing duty and attraction in direct conflict. The danger extends beyond the club’s prohibition on their relationship: someone is watching and threatening her, while he keeps a secret that could put both their lives at risk. The setup brings together a close-protection romance, a forbidden relationship, and an external threat, with the central tension shaped by the clash between keeping her safe and crossing a line that carries severe consequences.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary romance built around a forbidden relationship.
  • Readers who enjoy romance plots involving motorcycle clubs and protective roles.
  • Readers looking for romantic suspense involving threats and a hidden secret.

It was a terrible idea to agree to move in with my best friend's little sister...

She's everything I've ever wanted and the one woman I can never touch. As our motorcycle club's Vice President, I'm responsible for keeping her safe. Crossing that line isn't just forbidden. It's punishable by death.
When she demands the chance to spread her wings, it's my duty to go with her. I knew staying with her would be excruciating. Listening to her in her room--hearing her in the shower. Every day tests my resolve.

But when she asks me to crawl into bed with her so she won't feel so alone, there's nothing I can do. One brush of her hand and I'm crumbling. One crook of those fingers and I'm trapped. One reckless night and there's no going back.

Except desire is the least of our problems. Someone is watching her. Threatening her. Hunting her. Now I'm racing to stop an enemy closing in while hiding a secret that could cost us both our lives.
But I promised her everything, and I'm willing to offer the greatest sacrifice.
