Carson ‘Jinx’ BuschI’ve waited my entire life for one girl. Yes, I’ve been out with a ton of girls over the years and everyone has simply made assumptions about what I have, and haven’t, done with those girls. No one knows the truth except for one person and he’ll take my secret to the grave with him. The main problem standing in the way of having the girl I want more than anything else is her dad.

Most guys are.Growing up in the club, I’ve always felt as if I had to be someone I’m truly not. Not because of my parents or close friends, but because of the way we’re viewed by our classmates. So, I’ve tried to live up to that demand and be someone I don’t like. All for people who truly don’t matter in my life. Maybe it’s fear holding me back, I really don’t know. All I know for sure is that I’m ready to shed this version of myself and find out who I truly am away from those I grew up with.Hope LongGrowing up in the Phantom Bastards MC, I was always treated differently by classmates and others the second they found out I had ties to the club. The girls were all treated if it was a given that we would have sex with any guy we came in contact with, and the boys I grew up with were put on some kind of pedestal. At least that’s how things felt to me. Maybe my sister and the other girls felt different, but I know what was said to me and how the guys in my class talked and acted.I wanted to save myself for one guy. A guy I’ve crushed on for longer than normal. Someone I fell in love with years ago because of who he is beneath the person he shows everyone else. I’m one of the few lucky enough to see who this guy truly wants to be and he’s amazing. Still, he’s never even looked in my direction as anything other than a friend and I know that’s all I’ll ever be to him. So, I try to move on with my life and it’s the worst mistake I could ever make when it all goes wrong and leads my family down a dangerous path. less

Especially once we find our person. The girl we want to share and keep as our ol’ lady.Dylan ‘Devil’ BuschGrowing up in the shadow of my dad and grandpa, I knew there was only one path in life for me—joining the Phantom Bastards MC. Instead of wanting to lead the club like them and my twin, I found a role that suits me much better. So, I trained with Killer to become the best Enforcer for the club. The entire time, I keep a secret to myself. Something so big that could cost me everything I’ve ever loved. If I do share, I could lose my family and the men who have taught me everything I know. Keeping the secret to myself for much longer could cost me my best friend in the world. Raptor doesn’t agree with me and has made it known on a regular basis. It takes one woman to show me that things aren’t necessarily going to happen the way I feel they will. Her strength and determination are awe inspiring and the only reason I finally decide to come clean no matter what the outcome is.Genesis CamdenGrowing up alone in the world, I’ve come to rely on no one but myself. Everyone I’ve ever been around has let me down and proven they only care about themselves. It didn’t take me long at all to realize I’m the only person I can truly count on. My foster sister further proves that when she drops her son in my lap with nothing more than the clothes on his back. I give up the thought of having a life of my own in order to protect him at all costs and everything I do is for the sweet baby I’m now raising. When trouble finds me, I’m not sure if I can truly trust the men who take me into their home and vow to protect the baby and me. Especially with another woman telling me to stay away from them. less

My plan was to have it all and live my life the way I truly want—free and by my own rules. Instead, my plans got completely derailed in a split second. I almost lose everything in the blink of an eye and the demons follow me down the very long road I have in front of me.

However, things take another turn down the wrong path when a woman I quickly find myself falling for learns not everything is as it seems with me. Our relationship might have started out in a horrible way, but my feelings are genuine. I just have to convince her she’s the one for me and that I wasn’t lying to her.Brynn JohnsAll of my life I’ve been picked on and teased. All because I’m the youngest kid in my family and one who wasn’t planned. My sister and brother tease me relentlessly to the point that everyone else joins in and I lose all faith in every adult in my life. I keep my secrets to myself and suffer in silence. The second I’m able to, I choose to move away from the only home I’ve ever known and my family to start my life on my own without the constant teasing and holding everything in. That’s when my life truly takes a turn and I don’t want to confide in the people who are supposed to love and protect me above anyone else. Instead, my savior comes in the form of a man I was falling for. One who lied to me and didn’t tell me everything from the very beginning. less
