He never touched her. He just gave her everything else.

Lane Kincaid can weld a frame straighter than any man in her husband's club, and for twelve years that was enough. Knox loved three things — Anvil Creek, motorcycles, and her — and she never asked too hard about the order.

Then at Founders' Night, in front of two hundred people, Knox announces a family center to be built in her dead father's bay. Planned for months. With another woman.

Tessa Vale is the widow of Knox's best friend, and she isn't sleeping with Lane's husband. Everybody keeps saying that, like it settles something. She's just the one he leaves dinner for. The one who knows which of his hands is bad in the cold. And four months ago, without telling his wife, Knox signed a document naming Lane's house as where Tessa's son would go if his mother died.

Lane signs the separation clause on Monday. She files in the spring. And she does not get quiet about it — not with the club, not with the widow, and not with the man who spent a year building somebody else a family out of the pieces of hers.

Knox Kincaid is going to learn the difference between being needed and being loved. It is going to take him nine months, a divorce, and a thirteen-year-old boy telling him the truth to his face.

What comes after that is not the marriage they had. It's better, and it costs more.

A slow-burn second chance romance about an emotional affair, an ugly separation, and two people who rebuild something worth having.

ANVIL CREEK MC, Book One. A complete standalone with a guaranteed happy ending. Dual point of view.

Reader notes: This is a low-heat book — one love scene, late, and no physical infidelity at any point. Strong language throughout. Contains grief and the on-page death of a friend in a motorcycle accident, divorce, an emotional affair, and a bereaved child.
