Breathless by K E Osborn

Two years of patience. One night that changes everything.
As a prospect of Las Vegas Defiance MC, I’ve spent two years doing what I do best—waiting, watching, and keeping my feelings locked down tight. I’ve worked too damn hard to let one woman unravel everything I’ve built.
Then she calls me in the dark with intruders on her property, and fear she refuses to show. Millie McClane. A soft-hearted baker and miner’s daughter, who carries her dying father’s secrets with a quiet, unshakeable strength built from years of holding the world together on her own.
I should keep my distance.
Protect her from the shadows closing in, and walk away with my patch intact.
But she’s warmth and stubbornness wrapped in a heart so big it terrifies me, and when her father’s enemies come for everything she loves, I can’t stay on the sofa and call it professional. One night turns into a mission, a mission into something I can’t name, and suddenly I’m sleeping twelve feet from her door and lying to myself about why.
Except I’ve never been good at lying.
One wrong move and I lose the patch I’ve waited two years for.
One right move and I might lose myself to her instead.
Some loyalties are worth everything.
Some loves are worth the risk.
But with Millie, I’m fighting for both.
