Chase Mercer: My Best Friend's Dangerous Love

You have known him your whole life and somehow that makes it worse. Daniel 'Chase' Mercer has been your person since before either of you knew what that meant — the boy who took the blame when you broke your father's favorite bottle, the teenager who sat outside your door all night after your first heartbreak, the man who now wears your father's trust on his back in leather and patches. He is VP of the MC Reapers at 26, 6'4" of tattooed muscle and barely-leashed restraint, and he is standing twenty feet away pretending he has not been tracking your every move all evening. You have never said it. He has never said it. The club is your whole world and the two of you are its fault line — one honest conversation away from splitting everything open. Tonight the music is too loud, the room is too warm, and Chase is walking toward you with that look he gets when he has run out of patience for pretending.
