She pulled up with a smashed van. He pulled a knife for her. Tessa Rawlins has spent three years building a mobile dog grooming business from nothing-no shop, no lease, no backup plan. Just a converted cargo van, a set of clippers she bought with her own money, and a client list she earned one referral at a time. When a crew of ex-cons starts taking over her parking lots and smashing her rig, she drives to the only place she can think of-a motorcycle club compound where she once groomed a brother's dog. He didn't offer charity.
He offered war. Razor hasn't let anyone past his guard since the fight that put him in county at eighteen. The club gave him a second chance and a blade, and he's never needed anything else. But when Tessa rolls through the compound gate with duct tape holding her van together and a spine that won't bend, something locks into place. She's his. And the men who touched her rig are already dead-they just don't know it yet. Her route was stolen.
His territory was violated. Derek Poole built a robbery empire across Raider territory without asking permission. Now his crew is hunting the woman who knows every back road and parking lot on the corridor-and the enforcer who's already put a blade to her name. As the Raiders tear Poole's operation apart piece by piece, Tessa discovers that the most dangerous thing on the Florida coast isn't the men trying to destroy her business. It's the one man who'd burn it all down to keep her.
