Unexpected Detours

"I press my back to the door and drink in his ruggedly handsome form. His dark hair and blue eyes. His chin stubble. His forearms and biceps that flex with each movement."

Ambitious real estate agent Jade Forrester has built a successful career by sacrificing personal connections for professional advancement, leaving little time for her young daughter and even less for romance. When her car breaks down in a rough part of town, the last person she expects to come to her rescue is Ryker—a ruggedly handsome biker whose leather-clad exterior and raw masculinity represent everything her carefully controlled life lacks. Their chance encounter ignites a primal attraction that neither can deny.

As Jade finds herself drawn into Ryker's world to help his motorcycle club secure a new property, their forbidden passion blazes hotter with each stolen moment together. By day, she maintains her polished professional image, but by night, she surrenders to desires she never knew existed, discovering a side of herself that both terrifies and thrills her. The line between her structured life and his free-spirited world begins to blur, challenging everything she thought she wanted.

But when a career-defining opportunity threatens to pull Jade back into her old life of constant work and absence from those who need her most, she must decide what truly matters—the security of success or the unpredictable joy of following her heart. Can she find the courage to veer from her carefully planned route and embrace the unexpected detours that might lead to happiness, or will she retreat to the safety of the path she's always known?
