They told me not to get involved with him because he had a bad reputation. I didn’t listen. Why? Maybe it was those eyes. Most probably it was his body. Or maybe it was his quick wit, easy charm, and the way he made me feel so at ease - like I was perfect just the way I am, flaws and all. I realize now that he wanted me to feel that way, so I’d accept him, just the way he was. He wanted to have his cake and eat it too. He wanted a game, so I gave him one. Checkmate.

Some women might find it flattering, being asked out over and over again by a man determined to have you. But not me. Not that the man in question isn’t sexy as sin, funny as hell, and charming as they get. Because he is. But sometimes you just can’t allow yourself to be interested in someone for other reasons, other variables. This is one of those times. Saxon Tate is my best friend’s ex-boyfriend. He cheated on her. He could possibly cheat again. That's three strikes.

Finally, I had a fresh start. I knew no one. I could be anyone, or so I thought. I wanted to be invisible, to blend into the background. But it turned out keeping my secret wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. Enter Grayson Mills. When Grayson noticed me, so did everyone else. He wanted me - bad. And what Grayson wanted, he usually got.

As a high-ranking member of the Devils MC, I’m a marked man. It’s why I push Corey away. But once I taste her, keeping her at arm’s length isn’t an option. It doesn’t matter that she’s ten years younger, or that my name will move to the top of her brother’s hit list. She’s mine. I’m going to keep her—whatever it takes.

Bad boys have never been my thing. I’ve seen firsthand the kind of devastation they can cause. That’s why I go for safe. Predictable. Guys who will take whatever I’m willing to give. That way, I always have the upper hand, ensuring that my heart remains unscathed. There is only one problem. None of those men have ever made my heart beat faster, or made me feel out of control. That is, until him.
