 Now live! 

A woman who seems to have it all, a shy construction worker who prefers to keep in the shadows, and news that will blow their worlds wide open. Join bestselling author ML Nystrom in the Dragon Runners MC spin-off following the much-loved MacAteer brothers.

Party girl Melanie Miser has it all: looks, brains, and money. She goes through men with a distinct lack of commitment, never getting too close and never letting them get close to her.

Not even her best friend knows why.

After a lifetime of being mocked for his speech impediment, burly giant Owen rarely talks to anyone outside his family circle. He has wanted Melanie for a long time, but fears he would be just another notch in her bedpost. As their friendship strengthens, Owen still yearns for Melanie to see him as more.

Then life throws a major curveball and Melanie faces irrevocable changes. More than ever, she needs Owen to help her process the hardship of her past and the challenges of the future.

If you like heat and tension, you'll love ML Nystrom's friends-to-lovers romance.

Rating: 4.5*

School teacher Melanie seems to have it all: a great condo, a job she loves, financial freedom, a sporty car. This comes at cost, with a family that despises her and will do anything to put her down and exclude her from their lives where possible. Melanie is confident and not afraid to speak her mind.

Owen is one of the MacAteer brothers who are excellent with their hands. Owen is the quietest of the brothers, having grown up being made fun of the way he speaks so he says very little. Owen happens to be around when Melanie needs someone to catch her and support her at a challenging time in her life. 

Melanie and Owen couldn't be more different but they ground the other. There is no judgement from either about the other's lives and choices. Having a really quiet and stoic character like Owen is not the easiest to write but ML Nystrom knocked this one out of the park.

I've had stories in my head since I was a child.  All sorts of stories of fantasy, romance, mystery and anything else that captured my interest.  I'm a voracious reader, and have spent many hours in my life devouring books, therefore it's only fitting I should write a few myself!  

I've spent most of my life as a performing musician and band instrument repair technician, but that doesn't mean I'm pigeon-holed into one mold.  I've been a university professor, belly dancer, craftsperson, soap maker, singer, rock band artist, jewelry maker, lifeguard, swim coach, and whatever else I feel like exploring.  As one of my students said to me once, "Life's too short to ignore the opportunities."   I have no intention of ever stopping so welcome to my story world.  I hope you enjoy it!
