Apple "Core" Drew needs the Uncertain Saints MC like he needs air. He is barely making it through the day, and each one that goes by takes him closer and closer to hell. Literally, not figuratively. He's a half breath away from killing himself-maybe not by taking his own life, but he's not against making someone else do it for him.



Then he meets her, the sister of a club member, and his whole outlook on life changes. And not for the better. Just as surely as he ruined his life, he ruins her life, too. One lapse in judgment on his part, and his one night of happiness turns into the worst nine months of his life.



She never saw it coming . . .



It was the beard. The beard made her do it. That's a good excuse for having sex with a man she barely knows, isn't it?



Yeah, who was she kidding? It wasn't the beard. It was the way he looked so dejected and solemn. The sad look in his eyes pulls her in, and the way his rough hands touch her makes her stay.



One day is all she gets, and he's not willing to give her more. Until she dies, that is. Then it's too late.



Contains mature themes.
