Hatchet

She refused to throw her runs. So they hamstrung her horse while she watched. Then the warlord of the Black Hills Renegades stepped out of the shadows with a grin that meant someone was about to pay. Tess Archer has been chasing a nationals entry for thirteen years. She doesn't need a motorcycle club fighting her battles — or a grinning tactician who calls her "my woman" before he knows her last name. Hatchet doesn't do quiet. And he doesn't let anyone touch what's his. When a gambling boss running a rodeo fixing operation targets Tess for refusing to throw her qualifying runs, Hatchet puts the full weight of the Renegades behind dismantling the empire — one enforcer at a time. But Tess isn't the kind of woman who waits at the compound. She's the kind who grabs a Winchester and holds the door herself. Now he's fighting a war on three fronts: a criminal operation with enough muscle to burn the circuit to the ground, a woman who matches his intensity and calls him on every bluff, and the terrifying discovery that the loudest man in the Hills goes quiet for only one person. As the body count rises and the rodeo circuit burns, they'll have to decide what they're willing to fight for — and whether a warlord who plans everything can survive the one thing he didn't see coming. Hatchet is a full-length MC romance in the Black Hills MC series, featuring a possessive alpha hero, a heroine with backbone for days, explosive action, and steamy scenes. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed.
