Thunder's Rumble

A white supremacist burned her business. Now a Marine artillery specialist will eliminate him with overwhelming firepower.

Vanessa Tikotin spent six years building Semper Ink—creating memorial tattoos for Marines. But when she kicked Derek Hoffman's white supremacist crew out of her shop and refused to ink their hatred, the three-generation hate organization burned her business and marked her for death by extremist enforcers who think corrupted cops make them untouchable.

Thunder called artillery strikes for thirteen years with devastating precision—trying to quiet the blast-damaged thunder inside his skull that makes him fear losing control when brothers need him most. But when he finds Vanessa refusing to bend to organized hate despite watching her life's work burn, every protective instinct roars to life.

She's his to defend. Anyone who threatens her dies.

Vanessa fights beside his brotherhood when Hoffman's extremist soldiers assault their compound. Proves she's warrior enough to handle his violent world. Makes him want something beyond managing trauma for the first time since leaving the Corps.

But Hoffman escalates with coordinated assaults, professional enforcers, and three generations of old-money influence that makes him believe he's untouchable.

He's about to learn what happens when you threaten a Marine artillery specialist's woman.

Thunder will eliminate every threat with the same lethal precision he used in combat. Vanessa's not just under his protection—she's his to claim, his to keep, his to defend with overwhelming firepower and blood until the only thing left standing is their future together.

Semper Fi means forever. So does his claiming.
