Bikers, brawls, and broken hearts…

With the rat taken care of and the new rivals seemingly disbanded, Destiny’s Enforcers Motorcycle Club is back to business as usual. But when Rooster and some of the brothers head north to handle a favor before their run, the normally quiet biker is stunned to run into his long-lost love, and to find the rivals aren’t gone.

Kristie’s been bitter for years after her summer fling, the one she thought was her forever love, abandoned her without a word. After losing her job and her research, she drags her cousin out for drinks, only to come face to face with the biker that broke her heart.

Even though Kristie has mixed emotions seeing him again, she and her cousin take off with Rooster and his club after they rescue them from a group of unruly bikers. When learning who the other bikers really are, she’s thankful for the help but struggles with what her heart wants.

When Rooster’s ordered to leave her with strangers and handle club business, he remembers why he left her to begin with but isn’t sure he can do it a second time.

Can a little forced proximity and chaos give their love a second chance, or will their differences and history keep them apart forever?
