Switchback's Edge. Battle Born MC, #13

She knew how to fall. He hadn't learned the difference between brave and reckless. Carmen Gregson rebuilt herself one eight-count at a time. A dancer whose career ended with a blown knee at twenty-five, she opened Elevation Dance Academy and spent five years proving broken things still move. When a gun runner's enforcers walk into her children's ballet class and demand her lease, she sends the kids home and tells three armed men to get out of her studio. Switchback is the youngest brother in Battle Born MC and the most likely to get himself killed proving it.
Fresh out of the 10th Mountain Division with a dead squad leader's ghost on his shoulder, the prospect doesn't know the difference between courage and a death wish. When he's sent to protect a dance studio owner, he meets a woman who knows what controlled falling looks like-and why the landing matters more than the leap. Carmen doesn't need a bodyguard who charges through every door first. She needs someone willing to learn that discipline isn't weakness.
And Switchback has never slowed down long enough to let anyone teach him. But the men who want her studio won't stop at broken windows. Her brother is already in the hospital. And Switchback won't stop until the supply chain that tried to weaponize a ballet studio is dismantled on the mountain roads. Switchback's Edge is a standalone MC romance in the Battle Born MC series, with a reckless alpha hero earning his patch, a heroine with a dancer's steel, and a guaranteed HEA.
Contains mature themes and violence.
