Crow loved the open road. He was not the settling down type. However, five years ago, a young girl ran right into him with fear in her eyes.
Kelley Rade was trying to escape. Her mother had sold her to some traffickers who were intent to sell her because she had her virginity intact. They were hot on her tail. Until, she bumped into a very angry looking biker.
He didn’t like bullies, and killing the men was easy. Now, he had to take responsibility for her. Seeing as the club he was with had decided to settle down, he put Kelley in her own home, and made sure the guys looked out for her.
For the last five years, he’d been checking in on her. Kelley was no longer a little kid. She was all woman.
She had fallen in love with Crow five years ago, and she didn’t know what she could do to get him to notice her.
Until one night, he finally did.
He was drawn to the open road, but it had started to lose its appeal. He no longer wanted the cold hard loneliness of freedom. He wanted his woman. He wanted somewhere warm and a place to finally call his own.
Would he take the chance this Christmas with a woman that had worked her way into his heart?
Excerpt:
After a good ten minutes, his thick cock hadn’t subsided, so he knew nothing was going to stop his arousal. It was like his dick had a mind of its own and knew what it wanted. Fucking thing. He ignored it, climbed out of the shower, and made his way toward his bedroom, but stopped when he heard noise coming from downstairs.
Kelley’s bedroom door was wide open, and he knew she was downstairs. The sane thing to do was leave it, just go to his room, get some sleep, and deal with his erection in the morning. He was a fucking idiot, because wearing only a towel, he did the dumbest thing and made his way downstairs.
He found Kelley in the kitchen, carton of ice cream in hand, and her mouth open as he stepped into the kitchen. Putting his hands on his hips, he looked at her and waited.
“Hey,” he said.
“You came back,” she said.
“Yeah, I didn’t plan to stay out long. Went to the bar, had a beer, then rode my bike until I came home.”
“You didn’t go find some other woman you wanted to be with?” she asked. There was no animosity in her gaze. It was a statement of fact.
“No, there’s no other woman, Kelley.”
She dipped her spoon back into her ice cream. Her gaze kept moving toward him, traveling up the length of his body, and then averting his gaze. He didn’t want her to look away. He wanted her to look at him, and only him.
“You’re … naked.”
“No, I’m wearing a towel.”
He looked at her, and the truth was, Kelley had stopped being a kid a long time ago. Even before he’d met her, he had a feeling she hadn’t enjoyed a childhood for long.
Taking hold of the knot, he eased it open and allowed his towel to drop to the floor. “Now, I’m naked.”
The spoon she had in her hand clattered to the floor. Her mouth opened, but she had swallowed that lump of ice cream. She looked at him, and there was shock in her eyes, which he was more than happy to see.
“What’s the matter, beautiful?” he asked.
“You’re naked.”
“That I am.” He smirked, and then walked into the kitchen. “And how about you get naked with me?”
