Vivian Gray - 2018
He’s a crime king with a hit list a mile long. She’s just a poor waitress unlucky enough to see him spilling blood. But he owns her now. All of her: Her body. Her heart. And then… her womb.
MARIN
I thought he was joking when he told me to strip naked. He was my boss, after all. Wasn’t he crossing the line? But he wasn’t kidding. Not even a little bit. Because, as it turns out, the rumors are true. Jasper is far more than a businessman. He’s everything that my fellow working girls whisper he is: A biker king. An outlaw. A cold-blooded killer. And now, to my sheer terror… He’s also the father of my baby.
JASPER
She should’ve been dead. If it had been anyone else who’d stumbled across a murder that I’d ordered, I would’ve had them suffer the same fate. After all, there’s no time in my line of work – my real line of work – for mercy. Only the truly ruthless can take the reins as president of an outlaw motorcycle club. And I’m the definition of unforgiving. But just this once, I made an exception. I’ll give Marin a second chance at life. But only on my terms. I have my men bring the girl to my penthouse. And then I tell her how it’s going to be: If she wants to survive, she is going to do exactly as I say. And tonight, that means taking off her clothes and bending over my bed. The look on her face when I laid out my demands was priceless. Almost as good as the way her jaw dropped when I told her I was going to put my baby in her belly. JASPER is a full-length, standalone, super steamy, bad boy motorcycle club romance novel from bestselling author VIVIAN GRAY. This suspenseful, action-packed MC romance is intended for mature audiences, due to violence, strong language, dark themes and elements, and explicit intimate scenes.
