Hatchet's Fury

She built a gallery and survived alone. He's the prospect who decided she's worth earning his patch for. Beth Carver spent three years turning Driftwood Gallery from storage room survival to legitimate business—proof she could escape her abusive ex and build beauty from nothing. Then Ryan Fletcher finds her with his uncle Vincent's drug money backing him, stalking through vandalism and threats while cops won't help until he actually hurts you. She's about to lose everything to obsession the system won't stop. She's about to learn that sometimes safety requires men who operate outside the law. And some prospects earn their patch through absolute protection. Hatchet lost his brother to pills the system abandoned. Four months with Salt Water Souls proving he can channel his demolition knowledge into protection instead of guilt. When he walks into a gallery and recognizes that particular fear—the kind his brother's girlfriend carried—Beth becomes his mission. His woman. Worth earning his patch for. Worth killing stalkers for. Worth proving he's the man who protects instead of the one haunted by failure. She never needed saving. Until she met a man worth fighting beside. Beth doesn't do victim. When Ryan's crew attacks, she fights with improvised weapons until Hatchet crashes through with explosive violence. When Vincent's enforcers assault the compound, she corners his lieutenant with a welding torch that earns brotherhood recognition. Partnership forged through coordinated combat. The kind that makes a prospect realize protecting what's precious requires being the defender, not carrying trauma. In Salt Water Souls territory, some abusers demand permanent elimination. Ryan Fletcher just terrorized his last woman. Lethal men. Explosive chemistry. Justice delivered through brutal precision. HATCHET'S FURY is book 15 in the Salt Water Souls MC Series. No cheating. No cliffhangers. HEA guaranteed.
