It’s time to reconcile with my past. But the cocky, hot-as-hell stranger I meet by the side of the road turns out to be the last person I should be looking at that way. Ryker Stone is fire, and I‘m praying like hell I don’t get burned. From best-selling author Daphne Loveling... a steamy standalone novel you won’t be able to put down ! Here’s what readers are saying about THROTTLE : “I've read tons of biker books and even more stepbrother books, so when I saw a book that combined them both I had to read it! From the first page the tension between Ryker and Hadley was insanely hot, and the plot kept me wanting to read more and more. Definitely going to be checking out more from this author!” “This was a gritty and sexy romance that you can't put down. Ryker is the sexy as sin biker with enough swagger to take your breath.
