Dire

<p><em>She was his— whether she knew it or not she always had been.</em></p><p> </p><p><strong>Callahan "Dire" O'Shea</strong></p><p>Carrigan Adair is more than just an Emerald Isle MC princess. She's also my absolute best friend . . . and I've been in love with her for years.</p><p> </p><p>Nothing has ever happened between us though not even so much as a kiss and I doubt it ever will. The last thing I want to do is take any chance that might ruin my friendship with her. She's my solace my center. No matter what happens with my life or the club I know I can come back to Carrigan and everything calms down.</p><p> </p><p>I always thought I'd be okay when she finally got into a serious relationship that I'd be happy for her. But jealousy is something I'm not used to and it turns me into a force to be reckoned with.</p><p> </p><p>When Carrigan is around she seems happy with her new relationship until the night she comes in with bruises and a busted face. Turns out she's been hiding a hell of a lot from me and now it's time she fesses up.</p><p> </p><p>Her boyfriend may think he's untouchable because his crime family has his back. Yeah well he hasn't seen what family can do out of revenge . . . but he's about to.</p><p> </p><p>I don't care how hard he tries to run and hide I'm taking Carrigan back and making her mine and then I'm taking his life for putting a hand on her.</p>
