Ridden by the Biker Daddy

Priz Nakamura owns one torque wrench, one ancient pickup, and a reputation for being the best diesel mechanic in three counties. When a motorcycle club rolls its whole fleet into her shop, she expects to get talked over. She doesn't expect Whit Bollinger to listen. He's fifty, president of the Maricopa Wardens, and the only man in the place who asks her what she thinks before he asks how much it costs. Six weeks of late nights and she's gone. Then his wife comes back from Sedona. Marguerite is beautiful, boardroom-tough, and has already consulted a lawyer. She doesn't yell at Priz. She offers her a check — and when the check doesn't work, she starts taking the club apart to prove a point. And Whit, who has spent six weeks making Priz feel seen, says nothing. So Priz does the only thing she's ever been good at. She leaves, she signs a lease, and she builds something that's hers. Ninety days later, Whit shows up at her bay door with nothing but a duffel bag and a job application.
