Viper's Vow

He saw two men watching children dance through a window. He stopped grinning. He started planning.

Valentina Reyes built her dance studio from nothing — five years of waitressing tips and the stubborn belief that West Side kids deserve something beautiful. Her grandmother fed the neighborhood from a kitchen table. Valentina feeds it through music and movement.

Then Ray Ochoa decides he wants her space.

Stolen equipment. Fake complaints. Men walking into her children's class and watching, making sure she understands what they can reach. Ochoa's been running illegal gambling across the West Side for a decade, and a dance instructor who says no is just another problem to crush.

Viper is the Ghosts of the Alamo MC's enforcer — a Golden Gloves boxer with scarred knuckles and a grin that disappears the second someone threatens what's his. He grew up on these blocks. Valentina's grandmother fed him when his family couldn't. When he sees Ochoa's men outside her studio, the boy who was raised by this neighborhood becomes the man who's going to burn Ochoa's operation to the ground.

Valentina doesn't want to be rescued. She wants her studio back and her students safe. What she gets is a fighter who watches her dance like she's the only music he's ever heard.

When Ochoa's crew threatens her students by name, Viper and the Ghosts will answer with fists, fury, and the full weight of a brotherhood that protects what's sacred. And the woman who taught a compound full of bikers to dance will prove she's got more West Side steel than any of them expected.

Viper's Vow is Book 9 in the Ghosts of the Alamo MC series. Full-length MC romance. Complete standalone with a guaranteed HEA.
