Until now, Olivia has survived by sticking to two simple rules: love 'em then leave 'em, and live out loud. But her odds--which were pretty good--change when Cliff walks out of prison and into her life. With his long dark hair, gentle eyes, and secrets, she's dying to unlock him.

Cliff is a survivor, too, and he needs Olivia's help learning how to live again. But his past catches up with him when he joins the local biker club, the River Reapers. A lifetime membership comes with its own baggage.

Olivia should stay far, far away from him. She shouldn't get skin to skin with him in the back of someone else's car, but she does. She definitely shouldn't get to know the man behind the mugshot, but for the first time in a long parade of one-night stands, she wants to. And she shouldn't fall for him, but she does. Except their entwined pasts may doom their love before it even begins.
