Primer's Protection

She wouldn't sell him her skills. So he sent his men to take them.

Valerie Nash has spent two years running Desert Arms on grit and gunpowder—selling firearms, rebuilding weapons other gunsmiths write off, and keeping her father alive in a care facility she can barely afford. She doesn't need complications, doesn't want trouble, and definitely doesn't have time for the scarred biker who picks up parts orders and watches her with hands too steady and eyes too sharp.

Then an illegal weapons dealer decides her shop is the perfect front for his operation—and when she reports him to the ATF, he sends his men to teach her what happens to women who can't be bought.

Primer has maintained the Death Valley Demons' arsenal for six years with the same precision that kept him alive through twelve years of mining demolitions. He walks into Desert Arms to pick up a parts order and finds the best gunsmith in two counties guarding cracked ribs behind a plywood-covered counter—and two of the men who broke her pulling into the parking lot.

He racks a shotgun. They leave. She tells him it's not his problem.

He doesn't listen.

Now Valerie's locked inside a compound full of outlaws, rebuilding their armory with hands that won't stop shaking from rage, falling for a man who claims her with every weapon he fires and every body he drops. She should run from what he is. Instead, she's building a life inside the only place that's ever felt like home.

In Death Valley, the desert kills the weak and the strong take what's left. But Valerie Nash isn't weak—and Primer will detonate anyone who tries to take what's his.

Primer's Protection is Book 7 in the Death Valley Demons MC series. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed.
