With adrenaline surfing wildly through his veins, he can’t get to her side fast enough—only to be devastated at what he learned once there. The club has dealt its hand to those involved, but is it too little and too late for the future of Ace and Tess? New relationships and expanding families surround them, but will this ultimately help or hurt them and the future that was once within reach? She desperately wants what she thought she never would.
