Crash's Grind

He drives into danger like it's a homecoming and fights like a man with nothing left to lose. She's been grinding the barrel racing circuit for ten years. When a criminal empire marks her for death, only an outlaw who lives for chaos can deliver the justice the law won't touch. Tammy Raines built her barrel racing career from broken bones and stubborn determination. Ten years on the regional circuit taught her to trust her horse and her rifle equally. When she tells the son of Alabama's most dangerous racing promoter to go to hell, she stumbles into Earl Vaughn's criminal empire—and gets her trailer tires slashed with a promise: pay fifteen percent or lose everything. Tammy doesn't scare easy. But four-on-one odds at her own barn change everything. Caleb "e;Crash"e; Wright is the Crimson Kings' most reckless weapon—former demolition derby driver who handles vehicles and violence with equal enthusiasm. He's been waiting for a chance to destroy men like Earl Vaughn ever since watching his brother burn alive in a rigged crash while promoters counted their money. When the Vaughns push into club territory, Crash volunteers for the war. One look at Tammy fighting four armed men with nothing but courage and a rifle, and Crash knows—she's his. But claiming the barrel racer means war with Alabama's most ruthless racing syndicate—thirty years of fixed races, disappeared drivers, and enforcers who've made problems vanish into red clay. Crash doesn't care. He'll bury every one of them before letting anyone touch his woman. Tammy never wanted an outlaw's protection. But when Crash's possessive claiming makes her feel powerful instead of caged, when his brutal violence eliminates the men who threatened her horse and her dreams, when she fights beside his brotherhood and he loves her fiercer for it—she chooses the dangerous driver over standing alone. Together they'll defend the compound against a small army, hunt a criminal kingpin to his fortress, and prove that some threats should never have targeted a woman with too much spine and nothing left to lose. He'll crash through her enemies with explosive violence and desperate devotion. She'll stand beside him and fight. Some claiming is forged in gunfire and sealed in blood.
