Zander Milan’s life is just as he likes it. He has his Harley, his bar, and more women than he can shake a cocktail at—until she drives into his alley in a ridiculous van with a load of attitude and enough problems to start a small war. She disturbs his equilibrium and shatters his boundaries, yet it’s her fiery appeal he can’t stop thinking about.Still reeling from the betrayal of a backstabbing … backstabbing friend who stole her singing gig and her boyfriend, Terra Miller isn’t inclined to take any man seriously—especially one who exudes pheromones and looks as good as Zander in a motorcycle jacket and a pair of ripped jeans. But a debt owed to the Russian mob compels her to change her mind.
As Terra’s dilemma forces Zander to confront his ghosts and reconcile his past, his reluctance to share his secret life could threaten their new relationship by tearing it completely apart.
This book is a standalone with a happy ever after ending, and can be read on it’s own, however it is book two of a series. For the best reading experience, I’d recommend reading them in order.

Loved this thrilling romantic suspense story!
Starting with a hilarious meet-cute, this story goes deep into the interconnected history of both Terra and Zander. Their physical connection is red-hot and intense which leads to some very steamy love scenes, but their emotional connection is even hotter as they both figure out that this relationship is unlike any they’ve ever experienced before.
I was hooked right from the start, and loved the way the story never let up on the action or suspense. There’s a lot going on that is slowly revealed throughout the story, leading to a satisfying resolution and HEA. These are terrific characters, especially some of the secondary players who I hope the author will focus on in future books. As with the first book, the emphasis on family is meant to put the mafia connections in the proper context that still allows for good to triumph over evil.
I read this in one sitting, even though it’s a rather long book, because I just couldn’t put it down. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
I was eager to read, this book after finishing the first in the series – The Marker. As i mentioned before, the author had created a great world in a fashionable exciting but slightly dangerous San Francisco.
This story revolves around a music club and a talented musician. She’s strong and independent but the ‘weak link’ in her chain is her heroine addict mother and the russian gangsters who exploit her.
The only person who can help – even is she doesn’t want to accept his contribution is the reformed bad boy and off-the-chart-sexy club owner. There is touch of tragedy in both their pasts and a lot of gripping romance. Ann Howes really know how to catch and hold a reader’s attention.

Terra and Zander have amazing chemistry, physically and emotionally which makes for a really great fun read. Terra needs help and doesn’t want Zander to help her, but he does what all alpha’s do and ignores her and helps her anyway! Lots of action and drama and easy to read in one go.

I loved this book and found it to be better than the first book. This is a standalone book. Terra and Zander have a story that is full of personal drama and baggage, but come together in a beautiful way.
I am giving my honest opinion in exchange for an advanced copy
Ann Howes certainly know how to tell a story, in book one of this series, we met lots of characters that turn up in this book, this is Zander and Terra’s story a lot of little stories circle the big story, which makes it so intense to the point I just couldn’t out it down, definitely worth more then Give stars to me.

Wow! Zander is off the chart hotness. Great story, characters and just the right amount of heat. Terra is in trouble with the Russians because of her drug addict mom and Zander is taking them on to help whether she wants it or not. Everything isn’t as it seems and the story just drags you in. The Debt was even better than the first book.
