Sable remembers her stepfather’s last instruction the moment dangerous men start circling her farm: If you’re ever in trouble, find my brother. He owes me.
That brother is Boulder, Vice President of the North Carolina Thunder Bastards.
Older, dangerous, and carrying twenty years of guilt, he’s ready to pay what he owes.
Protecting his brother’s stepdaughter should be penance. Nothing more. She’s too young, too vulnerable, too easy to want.
But the men who hounded Wade for his barn aren’t finished. Telling them no for two weeks straight is what put him in the ground, and Sable’s the only one left standing between them and what they really want.
When danger comes for her, Boulder forgets she’s supposed to be off-limits.
He stops paying for his past and starts choosing something for himself.
Sable came to him because of a debt.
He’ll keep her because she’s his.
