Scout's Shadow

She uncovered terrorism financing and discovered some secrets are worth dying to protect. When financial analyst Ember Janney follows suspicious money trails through San Diego's port operations, she expects to find simple corporate fraud. Instead, she uncovers a sophisticated terrorism financing network that makes her a target for professional elimination. But when armed operatives corner her in a parking garage, salvation comes from an unexpected source: Scout, surveillance specialist for the Shadow Legion MC. He's everything she should avoid—lethal, territorial, and operating in the shadows between law and justice. She's everything he shouldn't claim—a brilliant analyst who demands partnership instead of protection and refuses to hide while terrorists threaten innocent lives. But when the enemy escalates to coordinated assault on Shadow Legion territory, sometimes intelligence requires permanent solutions. Ember has spent years trusting systems that betrayed her professional loyalty. Scout's brotherhood eliminates threats with military precision while protecting what they claim as theirs. Together, they'll learn that some investigations lead to deadly consequences—and some claiming is worth risking everything for. One financial discovery. Multiple terrorist cells. An operation that thinks analysts are expendable. The Shadow Legion doesn't negotiate with terrorists. They eliminate threats permanently.
