Beauty & Balls — Jennifer Ann

*This is the first installment of a serial and is not novel length. Not intended for readers under 17.*

After escaping a bad marriage, Kyla Amado discovers a different kind of freedom on a newly purchased motorcycle, giving her another shot at happiness. Only her ex, Joey, a powerful man with deep connections and the worst kind of temper, isn't ready to let her go. When Joey approaches her outside of a bar with yet another threat of violence, Kyla isn't expecting an intense biker to step in as her savior. She never dreamed she'd be so affected by someone like Ranger, a sexy-as-hell man covered in tattoos who wears a bun and dresses in leather. Yet after their fateful meeting, she can't get him out of her head.

As a former Marine turned vice president of the Inferno Glory MC, Ranger Lewis has seen it all. With a dark past that caused him immeasurable amounts of pain, he's fiercely protective of everyone he cares about -- including the gorgeous brunette he saved from her abusive ex. And if he has anything to say about it, his ex-lover Harley will let Kyla into the newly formed Jawa's Angels MC.

When Joey makes it clear he won't leave Kyla alone, she accepts Ranger's offer to keep her safe, inadvertently starting a war between Joey and the two motorcycle clubs. But Ranger has never been the type to back down from anything and he's ready to do whatever it takes to keep Kayla safe, even if it means putting his own life on the line.
