Cruz

Anabelle Ruiz has six tow trucks, a father in a knee brace, and a murderous grudge against the Cobalt Vipers. So when a midnight dispatch sends her to a man bleeding in a ditch, and that man turns out to be the Vipers' road captain, she almost leaves him there. Almost. Cruz Ochoa owes her. But owing isn't the same as wanting, and wanting isn't the same as the way he looks at her when he thinks she isn't watching. He's the enemy. He's also the only man in Bakersfield tall enough to hold the truth she's been carrying for five years. When the Vipers' president turns out to be the man who destroyed her family, Cruz has one choice: the patch, or her. He chose her before she even asked.
