One two three four five six

Peace Corps
volunteer June Shellmound returns to Arizona to care for her dying mother. At the clubhouse of The Bare Bones motorcycle
club, June is swept into the drama when half-breed Lytton Driving Hawk barges
in and demands recognition as president Ford Illuminati’s half-brother.
Hot enough to melt
steel, Lytton has forged a life apart from the reservation as a brilliant
chemist, living the high times at his pot farm in the mountains. Lytton is no fortunate son, though, and the
mortal secrets Ford’s been hiding about their father drive the last nail into
their brotherly coffin.
Lytton turns his
back on The Bare Bones and sweet bleeding heart June. Blinded by vengeance, Lytton becomes ruled by
his own demons, raising hell alongside Ford’s mortal enemies, The Cutlasses. Alliances are torn apart within the club,

EXCERPT
Putting
his hands under my arms, he lifted me onto the library table where his
chemistry textbooks were. I leaned back
on a book that was open to some hydraulic engineering tables, spreading my
thighs wide. I had no shame. I knew that
if I wanted to win and keep Lytton’s attention, I couldn’t be the prim and
proper mathlete or the crusading Peace Corps worker. I had to be the hard-as-nails, worldly biker
chick who was as comfortable on his Softail’s pussy pad as I was in his bed.
He
pressed his forehead to mine. The crotch
of his jeans was packed with his straining erection, but unlike most men, he
proved he could ignore that for a few seconds.
“I want you to be my old lady.
Weaver forced my hand, June. I
want to put your best interests first in my dominance of you. Here.”
Without
tearing his eyes from mine, he swiped an object from a taller dresser. I didn’t want to break his gaze either, and I
felt more than saw him wrap a wide leather cuff around my wrist. He was serious now, his eyes brimming with
unexpressed emotion, and I had the distinct feeling he didn’t do this sort of
ceremonial thing every day.
“Your
happiness, your health, your contentment are in my care now, June
Shellmound. I offer this cuff to you to
guide you in your journey through life.”
He grinned and added in a less stiff tone, “I’ll get you a better collar
when I get down to P & E. This just
happened to be here. Go with me on
this.”
I
finally looked down and saw he’d snapped a plain brown leather wristband around
my arm. The contentment Lytton wished
for me flooded through me instantly, and I found myself saying, “I want to
belong to you and go wherever you want to bring me. I trust in you, Lytton. I submit to your guidance because I know you
want what’s best for me.” I have no idea
where I pulled that from, but it worked.
I did submit to his
guidance—in almost everything.
I
probably would’ve said the dreaded “L word,” but he silenced me with a
kiss. Now he leaned into me, pressing
his hard-on against my very core, making my inner channel flutter with
anticipation. The shudder seemed to
resonate through my uterus and ovaries, sending a surge of estrogen through
me. I angled my hips toward him, locking
the heel of one shoe in his back jeans pocket.
Love swept through me because he’d made me his old lady.
It was
almost as though he felt that love.
Suddenly some intense and frantic libido took hold of him. Bending at the knees, he scooped my ass into
his palms and carried me to the bed. He
tossed me like a load of laundry and I bounced, my arms splayed above my head,
wide open for him. I knew I was smiling
when he stripped that wifebeater from his sculpted torso. I could have easily stayed there for a
century watching him lift his arms over his head, the stylized eagle rippling
as it wrapped around his shoulder.
But
Lytton didn’t have all the time in the world.
Last time I’d been with him, he’d been a generous, sensitive lover,
putting my orgasm first. He hadn’t even
seemed to care about whipping his cock out and finding release. Now, though, he was all about unbuckling his
belt in a flash and finding satisfaction.
I wasn’t
prepared—I didn’t exactly wander around Arizona with old expired condoms in my
wallet—but I knew it was the safe time of month. At the moment, to be honest, safety wasn’t
first on my mind. When Lytton shoved his
jeans around his thighs and his long, fat cock leaped free, I was his willing
receptacle.
I knew
Lytton wouldn’t make me pay for my meal, or bring his fishing pole on a
romantic vacation, or measure the spice in the curry jar. He’d never had his retainer tossed onto the
school’s roof—for better or worse, he’d been the bully giving the swirlies and purple nurples to the nerds. Lytton was a larger than life renegade, a
survivor of an impoverished upbringing.
He was tough and courageous, with a fiery spirit that could not be kept
down, and right now he was sinking himself balls-deep in me while I cried out
with a soul-splitting wail, begging to be filled.
Publisher’s Note: This is Book #2 in the Bare Bones MC series. This book is a stand-alone and can be read out of order. However, it is advised to read THE BARE BONES first to get a complete picture of the club’s background, storylines, and setting.
