Claimed and Protected
I wear a fake engagement ring to keep the handsy truckers away.
But it doesn't fool the dangerous ex-con biker who orders black coffee at booth seven every morning.
Tank sees right through my cubic zirconia lie.
He's got ten years and a lifetime of mistakes on me—six-foot-four of reformed menace. The skull tattoo on his neck tells our small town he's trouble. The way he watches me says I'm already his.
When a drunk trucker gets grabby and won't take no for an answer, Tank steps in. My fake engagement doesn’t work—he wants to teach me real self-defense.
Just us two. Alone in his gym after hours.
His hands guiding mine. His hard body pressed against me on the mats. The way he growls "good girl" when I nail a move.
He's dangerous, with a past that could get us both killed. I shouldn't let him touch me. Shouldn't let him kiss me. But the way my body responds means I don't want to say no.
And when he looks at me like I'm something worth protecting . . . like I could be part of the family he's built . . . maybe I want to be claimed for real.
Claimed and Protected is a steamy instalove novella featuring a vulnerable waitress and the reformed bad boy who'd burn down their small town to keep her safe.
Age gap, found family, and all the protective alpha goodness you crave.
