Roughneck's Gamble

She was documenting the criminals in her building when they threw her down the stairs. The prospect who'd noticed her shaking hands was on his bike before anyone finished talking.

Willa Beaumont has been managing alone since she aged out of foster care at eighteen. When an illegal racing operation moves into her apartment complex, she does what she always does—documents everything and refuses to back down. Even when they break her ribs and leave her bleeding on the landing.

Roughneck wasn't looking for anyone. He's spent two years running from the grief of losing his brother on a Texas oil rig, carrying a dead man's hard hat in his saddlebag because he can't figure out how to put it down. But when he sees a building manager with shaking hands and steel in her spine, something in him shifts.

She's his.

Now Willa's under his protection whether she wants it or not. She's sleeping in his cabin, wearing his patch, and making him want things he stopped believing he deserved.

But the man running the racing circuit won't stop until she's silenced. And when war comes to the compound gates, Willa will have to decide: hide behind the walls—or stand beside the prospect who's claimed her heart.

ROUGHNECK'S GAMBLE is book 25 in the Ozark Outlaws MC series. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed.
