Ares Rhyne has worn a leather cut with a patch before, but the pain that came from having it taken away almost killed him, so he has no desire to accept the patch that Back Down Devil MC keeps offering. Living as a prospect allows him time to heal his wounds and the quiet chance of survival.

On a mission to break up an underground gambling ring, Ares gets caught in a bloody and deadly shootout. When he escapes, he doesn't expect to have a passenger on the back of his ride...

Desperate to finally escape the hell she has been living in, Brooke Danyers was supposed to put the gun to the sexy, tough biker's stomach and pull the trigger. Instead, she froze... and then left with him.

There's revenge to be had, but when Ares discovers who is behind it all - and that his fate with Back Down Devil is on the line - will his steamy romance with beautiful Brooke finally destroy his ties to the club forever?
