As Vice President of the Lost Kings Motorcycle Club, I’ve spent a lot of years as a hit-it-and-quit-it player, only seeking a good time. Willing women are never in short supply. More than one night? No thanks. Until I met her. My perfect woman. Like a damn mermaid, she was beautiful, smart, sexy, and slippery as fuck.

Then out of nowhere, my mythical woman resurfaces. She forgot to mention one little thing before she vanished. One small secret growing up into a big lie. It’s a betrayal too deep to overcome.
