Ride Until Forgiven

She chose truth over family. Now she's riding toward redemption-and straight into his heart. Maren Caldwell did the unthinkable: she testified against her own father, a corrupt District Attorney whose crimes she could no longer ignore. The verdict was guilty, but the cost was everything-her family, her career, her identity. Now she's running from the wreckage of her life on a vintage motorcycle, searching for forgiveness she's not sure she deserves.
When her bike breaks down on Highway 50-the Loneliest Road in America-she's stranded in the Nevada desert with no money, no plan, and nowhere left to run. Ryder Hayes knows all about running from the past. Five years ago, he fled his own demons and found refuge in the tiny town of Silver Ridge, rebuilding his life one repaired engine at a time. He's learned to live with his guilt, to find peace in solitude.
The last thing he needs is a beautiful, broken woman who reminds him what it feels like to want something-someone-more than safety. But when he pulls over to help a stranded stranger, Ryder can't walk away. Not from her fierce green eyes. Not from the pain she's trying so hard to hide. Not from the undeniable pull between them. In Silver Ridge, miracles grow in the desert. As Maren settles into small-town life, she discovers that healing doesn't mean forgetting-and that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stop running.
With Ryder by her side and a community that refuses to let her face her demons alone, she begins to rebuild not just her life, but her heart. But forgiveness is a long road, and the past has a way of catching up. When her family reaches out, Maren must decide: Can she forgive herself for the choices that cost her everything? Can she accept that love doesn't require perfection-only courage?And can she finally believe she deserves the happiness waiting just ahead?A sweeping romance about second chances, the cost of integrity, and finding home in the most unexpected places.
