“Wait! Shouldn’t you wait for the police?” Consuelo asked.

“We need to go,” he said as he looked around. He nodded at the camera behind Consuelo’s head. “That will tell the cops everything they need to know.”

“But… but…” Consuelo stammered.

“Come on,” he said, taking Tina by the hand and leading her out.

“Wait!” Consuelo cried as she burst through the door behind them. She ran to Tina and gave her a hug. “Thank you! Thank you so much!”

“It’s okay. If they move, just kick them in the nuts again.”

“Tina! Come on!” Jack called from his bike.

She hurried to her ride, put on her helmet and sunglasses, and thumbed the bike to life before she followed Jack out of gas station. She could stop and strap down her helmet later down the road.

They had met a county Sheriff's car, blue lights flashing, as it hauled ass in the direction they came. Jack had tensed up until it became clear the car wasn’t going to turn around. After a quick stop to get themselves set for the remainder of the ride into Albuquerque, he had been unable to wipe the smile off his face as they thundered across the New Mexico desert. While Tina reminded him of Colette in so many ways, there was one clear difference between them. Colette had tried to pretend she was a badass chick, but Tina… she
was
a badass chick, able to take care of herself in almost any situation.

As they approached the outskirts of Albuquerque he realized that what had been bothering him, what was holding him back with Tina, was the fear that she would end up like Colette. But after her performance in Vaughn he finally realized that Tina
wasn’t
Colette, and she shouldn’t be forced to live in the shadow of a ghost from his past. 

He twisted the throttle open on his hog and pulled up beside her, then slowed until she looked in his direction. He smiled, blew her a kiss, then opened the taps again as he pulled in front to lead her to Marshall’s house. Colette would always be special to him… but he was finally ready to leave his past behind him and embrace the future.

Be on the lookout for the thrilling conclusion of the
Desert Sons MC
trilogy:

KING OF DIAMONDS

He's more than a second chance.

Tina Harris is in love. Jack Carter has been nothing but honest with her and she can't turn her back on him even if she tried. When he comes to her with one final plan, one final heist, she knows that she'd agree to it and that she'd follow him anywhere in a heartbeat.

She's not someone he ever has to be worried about.

The realization that Tina Harris isn't a little girl out trying to impress him leaves Jack Carter more at ease about the thief that stole his heart. Slowly but surely, he finds himself finally comfortable with giving her his love--completely and unconditionally--and dares to think about a future together with her.

One last heist, one last ride, and one chance to leave their past behind.

Jack will need Tina's nimble fingers more than ever if they want to pull off this final heist. And once they do, it'll be time for them to be together for good, to finally put their pasts and all the ghosts that haunt them behind.

Should be simple, right?
