  Here’s a sneak peek at DIRTY DEALS: A Devil Kings MC Story (book 2)

  Rusty—

  I’m standing at the gun counter of the local sporting goods store, wishing I were anywhere else. Reno dragged me in here with him to get a birthday present for his ol’ lady, Kara. I had no idea he meant a pistol. He’s got a little Sig Sauer P238 in his hand, pink camo, no less.

  “She’s left-handed,” he tells the sales guy.

  “No problem. We can order her the external thumb safety conversion kit.”

  Reno nods. “I’ll need that.”

  “It’s a good little gun. Light weight, no recoil, and the slide’s easy,” the guy says.

  “She’ll love it,” I agree, grinning. “All chicks want a gun.”

  “Don’t be a dick. I want her to be safe,” he snaps.

  I can’t help giving him hell. Butterfly’s kept him on his toes for months. The boy is head-over-heels lovesick. I can’t help but feel a little jealous.

  The clerk moves off to order the conversion kit and another clerk waits on someone farther down the long glass case that extends about twenty feet across the back wall of the store.

  “What can I help you with, ma’am?”

  I’m leaning on the glass with an elbow, facing Reno, my back to them, when I hear the woman respond.

  “I’m looking for a small handgun, please.”

  I recognize the voice straight off. It’s the beauty I encountered on the side of the road last week. I straighten, my eyes swiveling over my shoulder. It’s her, all right. I can’t believe my luck. What the hell is she doing in here, buying a gun, no less? I abandon Reno and walk closer to overhear the conversation, but I hang back near a display, pretending a sudden interest in duck calls. The old man waiting on her shows her the features and benefits of a small Ruger.

  She tries it in her hand. With hardly more consideration that she’d take picking out a pack of gum, she hands it back. “I’ll take one. Can you put it in a case for me?”

  “Ma’am, I’m sorry, but there’s a waiting period. You won’t be able to take it with you today. I’ll need to fill out some paperwork first, and you’ll have to come back to pick it up.”

  “Oh.” Her body deflates at the news, and she swallows. “All right.”

  The old man goes off to get the necessary forms, and I move in.

  Almost immediately she feels my presence, and her head jerks up. Her eyes widen. “Oh, it’s you.”

  “How are you?”

  “Fine, and you?”

  I frown down at her. She seems nervous. I lift my chin at the Ruger sitting in the glass case. “Please tell me I’m not the reason you’re buying that gun, darlin’.”

  Look for DIRTY DEALS summer 2020!

  SLY: The Kings of Carnage (Book 6)

  Kitten, you’re in way over your head—

  SLY—

  As treasurer of the Kings of Carnage MC, I collect protection payments from local businesses in our small Georgia town, and one business is behind on payments. When I show up at Mooney’s Pub to collect, I find her—the gorgeous new manager with hair the color of pale fire and a body made for sin. I’m instantly attracted, and when she turns that sassy Irish mouth on me, I’m damn near obsessed. She’s not what I expected, to say the least, but when it comes to club business, I’ll deal with her same as any man. She will bend to my will, one way or another.

  Because one thing is law in our town: anyone who wants to do business here is either owned by the club, partners with the club, or protected by the club—for a price. In this town, no one rides for free.

  Michaela—

  At twenty-two, the last place I expect to find myself is back home, running my father’s bar, Mooney’s Pub. But when he dies suddenly and suspiciously, I’m determined to find out why more than the accounting books don’t add up. I swear I’ll find his killer.

  Seems my father has secrets he’s been hiding; the mortgage is in arrears, and now the bank is breathing down my neck, ready to foreclose. All that’s holding my family together is my sheer determination and stubborn Irish grit.

  Then he walks in—a badass biker, demanding payments my father owes the club. I’m beginning to realize where all the money’s been going.

  Oh, hell no!

  Determined to hang on to my family’s business, I wonder just how far I’ll go when I’m beyond desperate.
