Kane's Christmas Claim - A Steel Wolves MC Holiday Romance (Steel Wolves MC Book 1) #1012302

He walked out of prison on December 1st and went straight to her diner. A man in a gray suit had his hand around her wrist. That was his first mistake.

Wren Atwater came home to Gull's Reach, Oregon, to run her late father's harbor diner. Now a developer holds the note on the building, and $86,000 comes due at noon on Christmas Eve. His fixer comes in every Tuesday, orders pie he never eats, and makes threats he never says out loud.

Kane Ballard is the president of the Steel Wolves MC. He has nine loyal men, a club running out of money, and a parole officer who would love an excuse. He also has a letter from Wren's father, written days before he died: Look after my girl. Don't tell her I asked.

Wren doesn't want a bodyguard. She definitely doesn't want to be anybody's promise. But when her window is smashed, her father's Christmas sign is burned on the step, and a hidden ledger points to a whole town being bought one building at a time, the grumpy biker who never stops watching her might be the only man she can trust.

Twenty-four days. One diner. A club that will ride through fire for her. And a secret in Kane's pocket that could break her heart.
