Playboy’s Purgatory

LARA
For the first time in my life, I’m putting down roots. I came to Dogwood Ridge hoping to witness my sister grow up and taking responsibility for her life, but instead I found a place to call home. I’ve finally opened my bakery and am thriving. But I should have learned from the past and expected the drama that always comes with Lola.
Playboy catches my eye, but a hot biker isn’t what my life needs. When I find out he’s a jerk who has been listening to the snake hissing in his ear, I’m not surprised. Lola has a way about her. While my sister proves her worth to the Saint’s Outlaws MC on her back, I raise her daughter as my own. Playboy can’t see my sister for what she is or recognize her lies, which means he hasn’t earned my secrets.
But my secrets aren’t destined to stay hidden in the shadows forever. When the truth comes out, Playboy realizes his mistake, but I’m sure it’s too late for everything between us to be washed away. He owes me more than an apology and penance must be made. When he truly sets out to claim me, I don’t stand a chance. But can we survive the turmoil my sister loves to stir up, or will Playboy be just another man who lets me down?

JETTSON “PLAYBOY”
My road name isn’t some ironic turn of phrase; I earned my name honestly and I’m proud of it. I learned early on that women can’t be relied on. The only people who will always have your back are your brothers. And I have the best brothers; we’re bound by blood, leather, and our loyalty to the Saint’s Outlaws MC.
The new baker in town is too pretty for my own good, but there’s someone whispering in my ear about all the things Lara would rather hide. As I learn about Lara, I can’t help but dislike the woman. She doesn’t deserve the little girl who worships her because it’s at the expense of the truth.
Turns out, one woman was spewing lies while the other was living life the best way she knows how—by baking and singing at the top of her lungs with the little girl who calls her mommy. Now I need to make it right because she was always real, which means what I feel for her just might be real too. I’m claiming my woman and getting a family I never thought I wanted. I’ll survive purgatory to have it; then I’ll never let go.

**18+ If you like alpha heroes and an insta-love story that is sweet and spicy but isn’t necessarily simple, then this is for you. No cheating with a guaranteed HEA. This is the third book in the Saint’s Outlaw MC: Dogwood Ridge series. Dogwood Ridge is mentioned in my Sweetwater Valley Series. The SOMC is a multi-author series with each author writing about their own chapter location for this 1% MC. The men of the SOMC don’t always operate within the law. This series may be darker, grittier, and contain OW (other women) drama.**

Dogwood Ridge is a small town on the wrong side of the tracks, at least when compared to Sweetwater Valley just over the ridge. Having the Saint’s Outlaws MC call Dogwood Ridge home doesn’t help. The men who ride with SOMC cuts on their backs will do anything for their brothers, families, and town. While the code they live by, written in blood and violence, isn’t for everyone, they stand by it with everything they are. Some of the men of the SOMC: DR are looking for love and others are running from it, but either way when they find their one, they’ll never let her go.
