Sometimes the heart wants what it can't have.

That's the motto Silas Mackenzie, the president of The Dixie Wardens MC, has lived by since he was a young man.

Now he's well on the way to middle age, has three grown children, and he's lusting after a woman he should definitely stay away from.

Especially one that his ex-girlfriend had given birth to, and happened to be only twenty seven years old.

Sawyer isn't a young girl at heart, though.

She's seen the inside of a jail cell for eight long years, and every one of them she spent paying for a crime she didn't commit.

Silas Mackenzie knows as soon as he sees her that the girl has sacrificed enough.

And maybe . . . just maybe . . . so has Silas.

It's time for Silas Mackenzie to get what he deserves, and put a little bit of happy back into Sawyer's world, one rough, bearded kiss at a time.

Contains mature themes.
