Riot — Marteeka Karland

Violet Harrington has a haunted look about her that pulls at my protective instincts like nothing has in a long time.Violet -- In my world, girls aren't deemed useful for much other than to be married off, creating a tie to a rival family. I did my job. I married the man my family chose, and I got pregnant right away. Now my life is a nightmare, wondering if this is the day someone will kill me, or worse, take my son. When Caleb witnesses the abuse I live with, he gives me an ultimatum. Leave his father, or Caleb will kill the man himself. That's when my lawyer introduces me to Quinn Devereaux, the man known as Riot. He asks me a question I've never heard before. What do you need, Violet?Riot -- I was gone the first moment I laid eyes on the tiny woman with the suspicious twelve-year-old guarding her like a pit bull. She's my service requirement assignment -- to protect her and her kid from her husband and father. Domestic abuse is never pretty, but her story hits way too close to home. I'll watch over them, and in the end, I'll do whatever it takes to prevent history from repeating itself. Even if it means I risk going back to prison.Warning: Riot (Kiss of Death MC 4) deals with issues of domestic abuse that may be triggers for some readers.
