Choosing His Forever: A Single Mom Biker Romance (Steel Hearts MC #3)

She needed a fake boyfriend to win her custody battle. He needed a reason to finally let someone in. Neither expected forever.

Hope Brightwell has spent twelve years proving the world wrong. Teen mom at seventeen? She built a thriving bakery from nothing. Abandoned by her daughter's father? She raised the most brilliant twelve-year-old alone.

But now her ex is back—not for their daughter, but for the two-million-dollar trust fund she's about to inherit.

Enter the Steel Hearts MC enforcer who's been watching Hope from across the bakery counter for months. Dangerous, tattooed, and completely off-limits. He's also the only person offering to help when Hope's lawyer suggests a "stable relationship" would win her case.

One fake boyfriend. A few staged dates. No real feelings.

Except Ghost has spent thirty-two years in foster care learning that attachment leads to pain. And Hope has spent twelve years building walls so thick, even she can't see over them anymore.

Phoenix, Hope's fierce pre-teen daughter, sees right through their arrangement—and she's not making this easy for either of them.

As the custody battle intensifies and pretending becomes all too real, Ghost faces an impossible run like he's always done, or fight for the family he never thought he deserved.

Can a commitment-phobe learn that some promises are worth keeping? Or will the fake relationship end before they discover what real love actually means?
