Jim “Liar” Huntley’s loyalty to the Riot MC brotherhood is unquestionable. Especially since before becoming a fully-patched member, he killed a man to protect a brother. When a favor to another brother forces him to meet Andrea Paglia, he knows she’s out of his league. Making matters worse, she is off-limits because she’s old friends with the President’s old lady. Weeks later, Liar notices his brothers ogling Andrea at a club party, and he cannot restrain his anger.
Andrea falls in lust with Liar the moment he walks into her massage studio. She senses Liar restraining himself around her, but she’s determined to go after the man she wants. For once, she grabs what she wants from life. Conflict arises when former co-workers implore her to lend them a hand during the holidays. Forced to tell Liar about her past, she uncovers another facet to her alpha biker.
Little does Andrea know, she’s being used as a pawn in a larger scheme to bring down the Riot MC. Liar believes Andrea deceived him and will not be betrayed twice. The perceived deception tears Liar and Andrea apart while also forcing a rift between the Riot MC brothers.
Liar discovers he was wrong, and struggles between guarding his heart and asserting his love for her. Will he be able to claim her as his own?
“Keep lookin’ at me like that, and I’ll haul you to my bike and give you something you can really drool over.”
My eyes narrowed, and I snapped, “Thanks for supporting my wishes. I’m sure I could have attained the same result with organic oil and not have used an aerosol can while I was at it either.”
“Don’t know. But you wouldn’t have attained the same result without herniating a disk or pulling a muscle at the very least.”
“Whatever. Don’t see how that should matter to you.”
A sinister smile crossed his lips. “Matters to me because you’re gonna be in my bed.”
So audacious, this guy!
“Well, that flies in the face of what you said when you followed me out here.”
He considered me briefly. “That’s because Natasha wasn’t the only one who was wrong. I was wrong too.”
“About what?”
“You.”
“Me?”
“Yep.”
I was supremely confused. “So, you didn’t or don’t like me?”
“You just fishin’ for another kiss? Or did you really not get the message the first time?”
“I got the message, but I also heard you say me bein’ in your bed was not gonna happen.”
“And that’s what I was wrong about.”
Seriously, the audacity. “Oh no. You had it quite right. I’m not gonna be in your bed.”
“Yeah. You are. See, what I was most wrong about was that you’re out of my league. You hangin’ with my brothers. Blatantly flirting with Beast− which pissed me off when you got here−but it also gave me a hint, I misjudged you. That kiss though sealed the deal. You’re a fuckin’ dream come true, and I’m comin’ after you.”
