Birch's Battle

She told him to bus tables or get off her counter. He was wearing a Gravediggers patch and bleeding from the knuckles.

Deborah has run the night kitchen at the Millhaven truck stop for four years — alone, stubborn as the granite this country's cut from, and answering to nobody. When a fencing outfit decides her back lot is the perfect transfer hub for their hijacked freight, they expect her to hand over the keys and keep her mouth shut. They don't expect her to say no to a man twice her size. And they sure as hell don't expect the youngest patched brother at the Gravediggers' table to come off his counter stool like the building's on fire.

Birch earned his patch three weeks ago and he's been trying to prove he deserves it every minute since. He rides the interior highway, watches the empty roads, and keeps his mouth shut at the table until he's got something worth saying. He never planned on a blunt-mouthed truck-stop cook becoming the thing he'd kill for. He never planned on her handing him a bus tub and putting him to work.

Now a cargo boss is burning through the interior, and the only thing standing between his operation and the highway he needs is a woman who won't close her kitchen and the MC brother who's done pretending he only comes in for the coffee.

She's not club. She's not asking to be saved. But she's behind his counter and in his blood, and nobody puts hands on what's his.

Birch's Battle is a full-length standalone MC romance. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed. This is book 10 in the Backwoods Gravediggers MC series.
