Rebel's Reckoning

She swung a baseball bat at two men twice her size. He put them both down with a crowbar. Now the drug lord who wants her shop has to go through an entire motorcycle club to get to her.

Tess Brennan built Second Chance from other people's discards — four years of estate sales and dawn-to-close days proving the girl who fled Arkansas with nothing could make something that lasted. When a heroin boss decides her thrift shop would make the perfect laundering front, she tells him no. Twice.

Then the men come at midnight.

The one who saves her doesn't wear a badge. He's Rebel, the fastest fist in the Memphis Marauders MC — a man who's spent his whole life running from where he came from. He's decided Tess Brennan is his to protect. Not because she asked. Because he's done watching the world take from people who refuse to quit.

Doyle has thirty-five men and nothing left to lose.

Rebel has a brotherhood, a crowbar, and a woman worth standing still for.

Some men run. Some men stay. And some burn it all down for what's theirs.
