The Outlaw's Runaway Waitress

The waitress scrubs the counter, jaw tight, eyes lowered.

It wasn't a promise. It was a fact, the way he said it, and it went through me warm.

I hated that. I wiped the counter so I'd have something to do with my hands.

Synopsis

Dahlia Brooks ran from a man who taught her that trust is a trap. She blames herself for the sister she lost, so she keeps her head down, works cash-only, and answers to a fake name. At Opal's Roadhouse, she is just Dana, a waitress with no past. Then Riggs Calloway walks in. He is president of the Crow Creek motorcycle club, and he owns the roadhouse, the lot, and every favor in town. He sees the fake ID. He sees her flinch when a man raises his voice. He asks questions she cannot answer. Dahlia refuses to be owned again, even by a man whose attention feels like shelter. Riggs can shield her from the ex who is hunting her, but his club is at war with the Jackals, and his suspicion may expose her first.
