Series: Devil's Bonyard MC #10
Publication date: December 24th, 2021
Synopsis:
Charisma -- My mother died when I was a teen. My dad had never been in the picture, and I ended up in the system. When the high school quarterback took advantage, no one believed me. Then I landed in true hell... my foster mom was a monster who preyed on the children in her home. When I aged out of the system, I stayed in the hopes I could save the boys who were assigned to live with her. She let me, as long as I paid in blood. The never-ending cycle of abuse sickened me and wore me down. I felt powerless. Until he showed up.
Phantom -- My mission was simple. Find the woman preying on young boys and end her. I didn't count on the bewitching young woman, little girl, and two boys living with the monster. Now they're mine. My family. When their demons come searching for them, I'll do whatever it takes to keep them safe. Even call in reinforcements from other clubs. Someone should have warned me I needed to protect myself as well. I never counted on Charisma's dad showing up, nor could I have ever guessed who he was. Things just got complicated.
WARNING: Phantom contains darker subjects that may trigger some readers as well as bad language, violence, and adult situations. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed Happily-Ever-After.

Excerpt
I faced the little group, making sure Charisma would be able to watch my lips and not miss anything I had to say. Claiming this was my family had been a gamble. Thankfully, none of the kids had said anything, and they'd not looked surprised. If anything, little Nova and the youngest boy had seemed excited.
"I checked us in as a family." I watched Charisma. "I told them you're my wife and kids."
"You don't seem old enough to have three kids," the oldest boy said.
I smiled. "I'm older than you think. I could be Charisma's dad and your grandpa. Guess I could have gone that route instead."
Little Nova's eyes went wide, and she looked at her mom before coming closer. She wrapped her arms around my waist, and I hugged her to me.
"I like you being my dad better," she said. "Then Mom wouldn't be alone. And then I'd have brothers for real."
"We are your brothers," the oldest boy said. "We've also decided we do want new names. We want you to pick them. Dad."
I hugged Nova even tighter as my emotions got the better of me. The only thing I'd ever wanted and been unable to have was a family. Until now. The boys clearly wanted to stay with me. I just hoped I could convince Charisma and Nova to stick around too. I didn't like the idea of the two of them leaving.

When Harley's writing, her motto is the hotter the better -- off the charts sex, commanding men, and the women who can't deny them. If you want men who talk dirty, are sexy as hell, and take what they want, then you've come to the right place. She doesn't shy away from the dangers and nastiness in the world, bringing those realities to the pages of her books, but always gives her characters a happily-ever-after and makes sure the bad guys get what they deserve.
The times Harley isn't writing, she's thinking up naughty things to do to her husband, drinking copious amounts of Starbucks, and reading. She loves to read and devours a book a day, sometimes more. She's also fond of TV shows and movies from the 1980's, as well as paranormal shows from the 1990's to today, even though she'd much rather be reading or writing.
