Furnace

She was selling whiskey from a truck with a dislocated shoulder and fire in her eyes. He took one look and knew she was his. Colleen Bryce has been distilling whiskey on sixty acres of family land for eight years. She doesn't need a motorcycle club fighting her battles — or a scarred enforcer who looks at her like she's already been claimed. Furnace doesn't rush. And he doesn't let anyone touch what's his. When a ruthless developer burns Colleen's aging barn and sends men to break her at her own still, Furnace puts her under Renegade protection — and moves her operation into the compound garage next to his forge. But Colleen isn't the kind of woman who hides behind a man. She's the kind who maps the enemy's entire operation and holds a door with a copper pipe. Now he's fighting a war on two fronts: a developer with enough money and muscle to burn every holdout in the Black Hills off their land, and a woman whose patience and backbone are making him feel something he hasn't felt since the foundry closed and took everything with it. As the bodies stack up and the developer gets desperate, they'll have to decide what's worth fighting for — her land, his brotherhood, and a love that runs as deep and slow as whiskey aging in oak. Furnace is a full-length, standalone MC romance with a possessive alpha hero, a heroine with backbone for days, explosive action, and steamy scenes. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed.
