Butch was sent to Vegas as a punishment many years ago. For the sins of his past, he must repay in kind. By being close to Ned Walker, he’s found a life for himself and his wife, Cheryl.
However, with the impending birth of their first child, tensions rise. After several failed pregnancies, the fear is there with every day that passes.
For Cheryl, she sees not only that fear for their child, but also the demons that haunt Butch. He’s constantly filled with regret for what he’s done, but she doesn’t know if he wishes to go back to Fort Wills or if he’s ready to stay in Vegas.
He was the child of a Prez. Leading is in his blood. Can he go back to being a club brother, or is it time for him to forge his own path?
Butch must continue to go forward, and to do that, he wants to take The Skulls in a new direction. He wants to help Lash expand them.
Does Butch have what it takes to be Prez? Or will he be stripped of his cut, and finally pushed out for good?
Excerpt:
They could only handle so much grief before it completely tore them apart.
“Last time I checked, you had a wife,” Ned said.
Butch didn’t stop punching the bag in front of him.
After a few seconds, Ned grabbed the bag, holding it firmly. Again, he didn’t have a clue what the guy’s age was, but he held that bag as if it didn’t have any weight in it.
As Butch hit it several times, Ned tutted.
“So, this is what you do all day and you wonder why your marriage is in trouble.”
“You’ve never been married, so you don’t get to tell me how to deal with my problems.”
Ned held his hands up. “Clearly, what you’re doing right now is working.”
“What do you want from me, old man? Seriously.”
“I think the biggest question here, Butch, is what do you want?”
Silence fell between them.
Ned chuckled.
“You see, in this world there are two kinds of people. There are those people that do everything, and then there are those that sit around blaming everyone else for how shit their life is.”
Butch rolled his eyes. “I don’t have time for this.”
“You have all the time in the world. You spend a lot of time here already, nothing wrong with taking a few more minutes to listen to some advice.”
“Who the fuck do you think you are? My dad?”
“Nah, if I was your dad I’d have put you over my knee when you were a snot-nosed kid.” Ned pointed a finger in his face. “You have everything at your fingertips. Your entire life ahead of you and you’re wasting it for what? Why the fuck are you here?”
“Because I fucked up! Is that what you want me to say? To be honest with you. I fucked up, which is why I landed myself here with you.” He glared at Ned. “I had to take my punishment, and not only that, I dragged Cheryl down with me.”
“Down? Where the fuck are you down? I don’t see anything down about your situation. You’ve got a wife that thinks the world of you. A baby on the way. Life’s been tough, but here’s a newsflash, no one owes you shit. You want what you want, and you take it. Simple as that.”
Butch shook his head and started to walk away.
“Here’s a question for you, Butch, you think you could go back?”
This made him pause.
“What?”
“To Fort Wills. You think you could sit at the table in your fancy church meeting, listening to Lash?”
“What the hell does this have to do with anything?” Butch asked.
Ned stared at him. “You’ve been on your own for a long time now, Butch. Longer than a lot of men are away from their clubs unless they’re part of the Nomad chapter. You’re your own boss. You make the rules here. What makes you think you could go back to taking orders? You look around you and you see this as a punishment? This is fucking freedom right here. The only problem right now is you’ve not got the balls to take what you want.”
With that, Butch walked right up to him and, old man or not, landed a blow to the bastard’s face. Ned didn’t go down.
Butch has spent years paying for his sins of the past. Now he is restless because he cannot go to being one of the pack but sees no life without the Skulls.
Cheryl is afraid for the life of her unborn child and the struggle of her husband to forgive himself and move into the future. His burden is hers too because she is unsure if their life will be here or in the past.
Butch is the descendant of a prez and fears he could never go back to being a follower. The stress of not touching his wife has him on the edge but he will do anything to keep her safe. He sees no future in the past but he fears the future he deserves can never be. Will Butch and Cheryl turn to each other or let life tear them apart?
Ms. Crescent is an amazing writer. She has an incredible talent of weaving characters together so tightly there is no pulling them apart. She writes of men who and women who have each other’s back no matter what comes their way. Butch is a character fans of the series know is one who risked it all to keep the club safe. Cheryl is a fitting character for Butch and rounds out his rough edges and helps him to see that you do not always have to go back to move forward. I enjoyed reading another fitting chapter in The Skulls saga and look forward to what the future will bring within the MC.

Love Butch and Cheryl
Written by Rhonda on 9th Dec 2018
I loved this story because I've wanted to know how Butch and Cheryl were doing! How Ned was doing and how Cheryl and Alex's son was doing! Butch has been through a lot and is still punishing himself for mistakes in the past. Cheryl is pregnant with their baby and is wishing that Butch would stop hating himself for his actions. Can they get their acts together before the baby comes? I loved seeing Ned more and getting a little deeper in his mindset. This is a book that every Skulls fan will want to read!!

BUTCH
Written by Neringa on 9th Dec 2018
It was nice to meet Butch again. I really wanted to know how he's doing because I always thought that his punishment was too harsh. But reading this book, I realized that maybe it was for the better. He found something, he wouldn't had if he stayed in Fort Wills with the club. That he isn't a follower, he's a leader. He found himself and his true path.

Butch made it!!

Loved hearing how Butch and Cheryl was doing. Sad to hear their troubles having children. They got a girl and everything seems to be going their way now. Hope we hear more about this new club house. Nice work giving them a happy ending.
