She had smoke in her clothes and steel in her spine. The biker who bought her honey decided she was his. Harper Ellison built her apiary from nothing-forty hives, thirteen years of patience, and a grandmother's legacy worth dying for. When a stolen-equipment operation decides her land is in their way, she refuses to run. Even when they burn her hives. Even when they promise worse. Cinder didn't plan to claim her.
As the newest patched member of the Ozark Outlaws MC, he's still carrying guilt from the man he couldn't save. But when he watches her stand in a farmers' market with ash under her fingernails and fire in her eyes, something inside him snaps. She's his. Now Harper's under his protection whether she wants it or not. She's riding on his bike, sleeping in his cabin, and making his brothers wonder if the quiet welder has finally lost his mind.
But the man hunting her has fifteen soldiers and thirty years of never getting caught. And when the war comes to their doorstep, Harper will have to decide: hide while others fight her battles-or ride beside the outlaw who's claimed her heart.
