Houston Defiance MC

I couldn't walk away. It's not who I am. The moment I saw Rayne broken and bloodied, I knew I wasn't leaving without her. As the president of the Houston Defiance MC, my job is to protect. And there's no taming the rage building inside my body, screaming at me to shield her from the husband who's beating her day in and day out. Taking her was never in my plans, but plans change. I don't care if she's married. Or that her husband's a cop. Our connection is explosive, it's dangerous, it's intoxicating. And I'm fast being swept up in her storm. It's something I can't ignore. I thought the enemy was clear, and I was ready to fight. But maybe there's a threat we didn't see coming? Maybe there's someone closer to us than we ever could have imagined. Someone who could be the destruction of us both. Contains mature themes.

My past was destructive. It haunts my dreams. The moment I embraced my addiction, I knew my life would change dramatically. As the VP of the Houston Defiance MC, my job is to stand tall. Contain the demons clawing from the inside, begging to escape from within. But when I embrace my bloodlust, nothing can tame my wrath. Zero took me in as part of his family-a bond unbreakable. I should care about the no-touch rules. And the fact they are in place on his sister. But the draw to Prinie is addictive, destructive, exhilarating. And I am all too aware that I'm dangerous. She needs to see that too. Her brother loathes the idea of us. Honestly, I put up a fight too. But maybe fighting my addiction to her is impossible? When chaos strikes the club, we'll turn to each other. But chaos can just as easily rip us both to shreds. Contains mature themes.

The club took me in. Even though I was a cop. The moment I handed in my badge, I knew becoming an outlaw would change my life forever. As an ex-cop turned biker, my job is to stay loyal. To the club and my brothers. That is my sole purpose. Even though the reason I joined is no longer with us. Losing love is hard, but life must go on. Especially for my kids. Even if they're just out of reach. Now I'm a fugitive, an outlaw, a ghost. But I've run into someone I didn't see coming. A ray of pure sunshine. Just when I'd given up on family, now I'm ready to stand and fight. But perhaps the battle is not where I think it lies. Maybe my ray of sunshine will warm my life. Or maybe the darkness surrounding her will freeze me to my very soul. Contains mature themes.

Oakley captured my attention. From the very first second. The moment she sassed me, even though I was wearing my club cut, I knew she had fire in her soul. As the tech man for the Houston Defiance MC, it's my job to know everything. To always be ahead of the game. To outwit, outmatch, and outmaneuver our enemies at every turn. They may be smart, but I'm smarter. Finding out this firecracker has ties to a rival MC catches me off guard. And my first instinct is to protect her. Damn the consequences. Taking her under my wing is impulsive, reckless, electrifying. And I'm more than aware of the repercussions. But what if she is not who she says she is? Those close to me loathe the idea of us, and they're becoming more of an issue. But things are not always as they seem. With new threats comes chaos and danger at every turn. But perhaps the war lies closer to home than even we realize. Contains mature themes.

I always felt different. Like I never quite fit. The moment I found the club, it felt like home, even though it was 1600 miles from Jersey. As the joint SAA for the Houston Defiance MC, my job is to be protective. Keep my brothers at the club safe-be the first line of defense against those who seek to do us harm. But what happens when those who defend suddenly need protection? She upholds the law-the club lives by their own. Never a good mix. The pull to her is volcanic, seismic, earthshattering. But there's darkness surrounding her. An evil lurking in the shadows. With an already high enemy count, more mount up every day. But maybe we can't see the danger rumbling just below the surface. When it erupts, all hope might be lost. When all else fails, will Defiance rise through the ash? Contains mature themes.

She is a mystery. A force of nature. The moment Billie ran into us, seeking help from her attacker, I knew I was done for. As a brother fresh out of prospecting for the Houston Defiance MC, it's my job to sit back and follow the rules. Do as I'm told. Fight when I'm needed. And I do it without question-every single time. But Billie brings something out in me that makes me want to fight for her-to break the rules for her. Protecting her from her attacker is my duty, even if my brothers are suspicious of the circumstances. Someone, though, is being deceptive, reckless, a traitor. Leaking information about the club. A most heinous act. An old enemy is rearing his ugly head, right as Billie and I are getting close. But things are not always so black and white. When you're faced with rage, how can you possibly survive? Especially when deception comes from someone you never expected . . . Contains mature themes.

They see me as weak. Just a scared kid. The moment my big sister took me away from the club, it sealed my fate as a burden. As the son of a president for the Houston Defiance MC, I was born into power. I'm destined to lead. My father and older brother before me, I should follow in their footsteps. But they don't see me that way. The only path to keep me safe is to ship me off. To live a life they have chosen for me. Doesn't matter what I want. Behind the ivy-covered walls of Stonewall are mysteries, lies, deception. I want to uncover it all. The sting of secrets is to be revealed. One thing I wasn't counting on was Thayleah, a fellow student who takes my breath away the second I see her. But she's tied to another club. When enemies come in all forms, you need to keep your eyes open. But I didn't see this coming! Contains mature themes.

We started a war. One we thought we could win. The moment the club tried to outsmart the Militia, the battle lines had been drawn. As the brotherhood of the Houston Defiance MC, our job is to be loyal. To show respect when it's due. There are ranks in place for a reason. Prospects will fight the system. Those we love will fall. Chaos will rule the streets of Houston. Can the club survive,thrive, evolve? Change is on the horizon. The dawn of a new age. Romances will flourish, the enduring relationships will prosper. But not everything is smooth sailing. Everyone will be tested. But in the end, will Houston Defiance Survive? Contains mature themes.
