Jessie Bonesaw, the second of the Bonesaw brothers, runs the family business now, and boy, does it feel good to be king. Even if he has to break a few kneecaps…but who doesn’t? At Bare Bones Cars & Repairs, with his right-hand bugbear-slash-roommate, Nikolai, at his side, he is finally making a name for himself.
Until succubus Katarina Hurley is towed into their lot with a kid on her hip and tear-stained cheeks.

She’s in need of a place to crash that isn’t Gill’s house, and the boys offer up their humble abode. A comfy bed, pancakes in the morning, and a cherished, stuffed platypus for the kiddo? It’s the most freedom she’s felt in a long time, but that freedom comes with an infinite to-do list and a ticking time clock. She has 30 days till her cruel ex-husband gets out. It doesn’t help that Katarina’s also starving…and a girl’s gotta eat, right? So why not both?

But something sinister is slinking around in the underbelly of King’s Fall. Reports to the Enforcers, rats that squeal in the ears of powerful men, and people purposely not paying their debts, someone means to make a mess of Jessie’s business. And they’ll happily destroy anyone in their path. Nikolai’s tough, but can he keep Katarina, Isabella, and the man he’s been in love with since he was a teen safe? Has Katarina just jumped out of the pan and directly into the fire? Can Jessie actually handle the family business?

He won’t go down without a fight and he’ll use everything his father taught him to come out on top.
