    About this ebook

    Reckless Kiss is book 2 of the Shattered Hearts MC trilogy. Book 3, Burning Kiss, is available everywhere now!

    I took her unprotected just to keep her safe.

    I'm holding her here under the president's orders.
    But the fiery mystery that drove Meghan into my arms has hidden layers I never expected.
    She doesn't want my help, but she's getting it anyways.
    We'll find the answers she wants. Then I'll pin her down and take what I want, too.

    DIRK

    When your MC president gives you a job, you do it.
    No questions. No dallying.
    Just get the sh!t done.

    But when the job turns out to be snatching up his baby sister and keeping her under my eye, things get a little more interesting.

    It doesn't hurt that Meghan is a stone cold fox, with the temper to match.
    She's feisty. I like that in a woman.

    It makes it all the more fun when I break them.

    But what was supposed to be a simple bodyguard job turned into exile and war as we run from the men who seem to want her dead.

    Protecting your mark is never easy, but it's even harder when I'm dying inside to get my hands on her curvy little frame.
    Every time she smiles at me, I feel emotions bubbling to the surface.
    Things I haven't felt in years.
    Things that make me want to break all the rules to make her mine.

    F**k it all.
    I've decided I want her in my arms.
    And I don't care what I have to do to keep her there.

    MEGHAN

    I left behind everything to make a life for myself.
    The biker world has long since receded in my rearview mirror.
    Now, all I want is piece in my little corner of the city.
    No war, no choppers, no dead bodies.
    Just quiet. Calm. Gratitude.

    But I soon learn that it's not so easy to escape the outlaw lifestyle.
    My brother – the one who refused to give up his biker ways when I left – calls me out of the blue.
    His voice is different than I remember.
    Darker. Deeper. More haunted and cruel.

    He tells me I'm in danger.
    Whether I like it or not, he's pulling me back into the world of the Shattered Hearts MC.

    He says it's for my own good.
    But the man he sends to collect me doesn't seem good at all.
    In fact, he's the definition of a bad boy.

    Dirk Dvorak is everything I ran away from.
    Massive, muscled, tatted, and terrifying.

    But he keeps making me react to his presence in ways I never anticipated.
    He takes what he wants.
    And gives me only what I beg for.

    I'm forced to watch from within the MC clubhouse as my little store goes up in flames.
    No one seems to give a d*mn about finding out who wanted to hurt me so bad.
    Not even my dear brother.
    No one, that is – except for Dirk.

    And the longer I spend on the hunt for answers with the biker bad boy by my side, the more I find out about the man he truly is.
    And the more I fall deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole I tried so desperately to claw my way out of.

      Chapter 1

      Meghan

      Iclutch onto Dirk and lay my head against his jacket, wishing I could fling myself off the bike without causing harm. I remember the clubhouse. I remember what it’s like there, with the partying and the club girls and the bullshit macho displays. As Dirk races forward, my mind races back, throwing me into the past, to the day I learned that there’s nothing special about being a club girl.

      I USED TO LOOK UP TO the club girls when I was about fifteen years old. They weren’t much older: eighteen, nineteen, sometimes twenty. But back then they seemed much, much older. They were giantesses who could own a man’s attention just by flashing the right pieces of their body, just by saying the right words. These big powerful men were made powerless when they worked their magic on them.

      I was staying in the clubhouse, in a room at the back I shared with a girl called Maxine. She was called Maxine, really, on her driver’s license, but in the clubhouse she was called Starlet. Every morning she’d wake up and paint stars around her left eye, gold and flaring, little flecks of glitter cascading down her face to show that the stars were real; they were hot.

      You have to be careful with this life, doll, she’d say, sitting in what we called the makeup chair and transforming her face. It can hurt you if you let it, but you’ve got to lock those feelings away. Just find a box and lock them up and—poof—then everything is easy. You’re free to enjoy yourself, to enjoy your life. Because why worry, you know? Why pay it any mind?

      But would you do anything they asked you? I was a virgin and infinitely fascinated in that aspect of her life. I saw the other part: the charming at parties and the attention. But the other thing, the private, dark thing, I never saw.

      You don’t want to hear about this. You’re just a kid.

      I’m sixteen in seven months! I protested.

      She scoffed, dusted the last pieces of makeup, and then folded up her box. Like I said, just a kid. Come on. If you really want to be a woman, let me show you how.

      So I sat nervously in the makeup chair and let Maxine transform me, too. She turned me from a soft-faced, acne-laced teenager into a woman with an unblemished complexion. What do you think? she said, putting her arm around me. Are you ready for a man?

      It was wrong of her to ask me that. I think she knew it was wrong, deep down, but Maxine was really messed up. I later learned, through an associate at the store, that she had been addicted to cocaine the whole time I was there, and that she had once had a baby but it had died in its crib. Maxine was a figure of tragedy, a heroine without a hero, but I did not know that at the time. She was just the cool older girl with
