Lucien Rossi grew up on the streets of Santa Cruz, California. He had
little to nothing to call his own, and ran with a rough crowd.
He only had two things he cherished in his life, the most important
was Luz Ramirez. When he met her he knew she was someone he would die
to protect. Years later and now a president of the Saint’s
Mercy Motorcycle Club, he’s about to find out that Luz is still a
grenade to his best intentions.

When her mother passed away, Luz Ramirez was given a second chance at a
happy life with her foster mother. What she didn’t count on
was that she would meet the dangerous but magnetic Lucien. Even
after forcing herself to move away rather than become like her
mother, it only takes a few days back for this bail bondswoman to
recognize who her heart belongs to.

forward he pressed his forehead against hers with a smile he couldn’t hold
back. "As to the state of my purity, don't ask questions you don't want
the answers to. You live in a world of black and white where the guilty are
punished and the innocent live happily-ever-after, but my world is and has
always been full of shades of gray."
Luz's
eyes darkened to that near black as she looked into his. "I've not yet
found a happily-ever-after, and I'm far from innocent. I don't need your
charity, your pity, or your protection."
Lucien
saw the look of hurt flash over her face before she once again hid behind that
blank mask she so often slipped on when she dealt with the outside world. He'd
be damned if she'd use it on him, though. Before he could stop and think
rationally about his next move he was kneeling on the floor in front of her.
"I've never pitied you, and your acquaintance to me has been anything but
charitable for you. My protection you will get, whether you like it or not,
Luzzy. Even when I'm not there, I'll be damned if someone gets anywhere near
you to hurt you."
Luz
opened her mouth, and before she could get a word out, Lucien’s impulse and
need collided, resulting with his hands speared into her curls, and his mouth
eating hungrily at hers. Her muffled shriek of surprise was quickly turned into
a moan against his tongue as he took no time in plunging it between her lips
when they opened. He knew this was the worst possible thing he could have done,
as they'd always been like gas and fire when angry, but he couldn't deny
himself.
When
her head snapped back he was certain she was going to slap him, or worse.
Instead, she gasped for air briefly, then grabbed his ears and pulled him back
in for another meeting of lips, teeth, and tongue. He'd never known Luz this
way, not for lack of wishing, and he was quickly regretting that he'd not tried
this sooner. The sound of persistent banging was the only thing that had him
breaking the kiss and backing away from her.
