The Biker Who Crawled Back - A Gritty MC Biker Cheating, Betrayal & Second-Chance Grovel Romance

One drunk night wasn't the betrayal. Choosing, sober, every single morning for a year not to tell her — that was the betrayal. Three hundred and sixty-five times. Wren Ashby built Ashby Salvage from her dead father's scrap, one crane and two years of beans at a time. The yard is the one thing that never let her down. Rhys — road name "Ghost" — is the Rust Valley MC's quiet fixer, the most honest man in the club, and the partner she nursed through what she thought was grief. What she didn't know: the night after they buried a club elder, he got drunk for the first time in nine years and slept with a stranger forty miles down the valley. Then he took her comfort while hiding it, and let her build her whole life on a floor he knew was rotten. Nobody caught him. He's confessing because the lie is eating him eleven pounds thin — and because he's finally understood that "fixing things quietly" is the same disease as the lie. So his amends is radical, uncontrolled honesty: he shows up empty-handed and tells her the whole ugly machine of the year, volunteering truths that can only cost him. He confesses to the entire club, defies the code that says you eat it quiet, and cuts his own colors off at the table in front of the men who raised him. Wren forgives too fast and too cheap — it's cost her everything. Not this time. If she takes him back, it will be slow, expensive, and eyes open — and she'll re-sew his surrendered cut by hand, crooked and honest, into something they made together. A gritty, confessional rust-belt grovel romance about the difference between a bad night and the slow rot of hiding it.
