I came home expecting ghosts. I didn’t expect another woman to be sitting in my place.
Three years ago, I walked away from Halloway Bay, the motorcycle club that raised me, and Thane Rourke—the man I loved enough to destroy myself over.
I never planned to come back.
Then my father’s heart attack leaves me no choice.
Thane is still there.
Older.
Harder.
President of the club now.
And looking at me like the three years between us never happened.
But I’m not the only woman at his table anymore.
Ravinia is sitting in my chair.
She’s beautiful. Composed. Already woven into the club I once called family.
And she’s the woman Thane is supposed to marry.
I should leave before old feelings become new mistakes.
Instead, every day pulls me deeper into the life I abandoned.
Every look from Thane reminds me of what we were.
Every moment beside him makes it harder to remember why staying away once felt necessary.
And the worst part?
I’m starting to wonder if I ever stopped belonging to him at all.
But wanting Thane back means facing the guilt that drove me away, the woman standing between us, and three years of truths neither of us was brave enough to say.
I already walked away from him once.
This time, I may have to decide whether the life I thought I’d lost was waiting for me all along.
