Wolf's Forbidden Girl
(2026)(The third book in the Copper Ridge Kings MC series)
A Story by Tessa Knox
I promised her father I'd look after her.
I made that promise in a hospital room, with his hand in mine, and I meant it the way I've meant every word I've ever given him — completely, and for the rest of my life.
Then I buried him. And I looked up.
She was standing at the back of the church. Nine years gone, all grown up, wearing her grief like a coat that didn't fit.
I'm forty-one. I've counted this club's money for eleven years and never once put a foot wrong.
She's twenty-six, and she's furious, and she is the only thing I've ever wanted that I have no right to.
Every day she asks me to stay. Every day I say yes, and every night I sit in my truck outside a dead man's house, doing sums that never come out clean.
He asked me to look after her.
What happens when that stops being enough?
Forbidden age gap. Best friend's daughter. Grumpy, quiet alpha biker. Small-town forced proximity. Slow burn to steamy. He falls first, and he falls hardest. Guaranteed HEA, no cheating, no cliffhanger.
Genre: Romance
