Aria Vega’s life will end in twenty-four hours. 

 

Her uncle’s debts are too high, and the men he owes have decided she’s the price. So when her best friend presses a stack of cash into her hands and tells her to run, she doesn’t hesitate. But five hundred miles away, the money runs out. Broke, alone, and desperate, Aria makes a decision that may cost her freedom…and her life.

 

Sav never wanted to be President of the Royal Bastards MC: El Paso Chapter. But when the former president dies during a run gone wrong, the patch lands on his cut whether he’s ready or not. Now he’s trying to prove himself worthy of leading brothers who question him at every turn. 

 

Then Aria walks into The Last Stop. 

 

The moment he sees her, he knows she’ll be nothing but trouble. But there’s something about her—maybe the secrets in her eyes or the desperation in her voice, that makes him hesitate. 

 

He should turn her away.


 

He should protect his club.


 

He should do anything but offer her a job…and a place to stay. 

 

With Aria’s past catching up to her and Sav’s authority being tested, the last thing either of them expects is to fall for each other. But when the men hunting Aria finally find her and drag her back to Phoenix, Sav is forced to make a choice. 

 

Follow the club’s code and protect his brothers… Or break every rule he swore to uphold to save the woman who stole his heart.
