Mike Dufrane fled a traumatic youth, hard years haunted by an abusive biker father, poverty and degradation, by escaping into the military. There he found only more savage violence. Then a chance encounter with an animal rescue group showed him another way. On an Indian reservation in the southwest, he finds a place to make a difference. Rez Dogs Rescue Shelter will be his route to build a positive life. Then a handsome Native American rides up on a Harley and throws Mike’s plans for a loop.<br><br>Adam was not there when his kid brother needed guidance and a firm hand. Back from two tours with Special Forces, he starts a youth center on the Rez to try to atone for his error but he cannot give up his Harley or his image as one bad ass biker. When an outsider starts a shelter for abused and neglected dogs, Adam initially finds it ludicrous but then recognizes a purpose similar to his own. However, the stranger seems to fear or hate bikers and is reluctant to begin a friendship. When crime and danger threaten both their projects, they have to join forces to prevail and suppressed attraction bursts into flame.

Rez Dogs and Scooter Trash

The first place he’d go was the abandoned shack down along the Kaibito Wash. He’d heard rumors gang members used the area for some of their activities, maybe met there, held initiations for new members or used drugs and drank. It was out of town just far enough no one was likely to see or hear anything unless they made a special effort to do so. The cops probably knew about it, but without a reason, why would they go there?


Wishing he had his motorcycle instead of the truck, he headed out the dusty road. When he got there, though, the place was quiet as a tomb. Nothing going on here now.After scouting the area, he got back in the truck. Now what?


Just then, his phone rang. He answered it at once. His mobile number was not unknown, but he didn’t give it out to just anyone. The staff at the center had it and probably some of the kids. The voice sounded muffled, as if the caller was trying to disguise it or limit the sound.
