Chapter One

Amy Baker rushed around her shop, offering delightful baked goods to anyone who passed. She loved doing this charity event. Not only did it help raise money for children but it also put her on the map. She didn’t want to use anyone to help her expand, but in business, she had to grab every single opportunity presented to her.

She loved being a baker. Sweet Treats was her baby that she’d granted herself after her divorce five years ago. All of her love and passion she’d pushed into her business in order to expand and constantly grow in a market that was only interested in the latest fad diets, and everything was online. She loved baking and cooking for others, and seeing as she was good at it, as she’d been told so by many people, she’d decided to invest in herself for a change.

Now after five years, being at a festival was one of the many highlights of the year for her. It was where she got to advertise herself to the market, and smile a great deal. She loved it. The MC festival was not her scene, and unlike all of the other markets, she stuck out like a sore thumb. Her pink mixed in with all the … metal, bikes, motor oil, and food trucks. She was like cotton candy in hell or something like that.

She’d been sent the invitation by two MC Prezs. At first, she’d talked herself out of coming, then back in, then out. She didn’t mingle with MCs. She knew there were several around, and she lived in the center of town, where on the outsides, there were two main MCs, and all three towns came together to host the annual biking festival. It helped to bring tourism.

Handing out the cookies, she offered a smile. Some of the kids held onto the table, staring at the yummy goodies on display, and, seeing their wonder, she couldn’t help but hand them a treat without payment.

She loved kids.

She didn’t have any of her own though. Her ex-husband hated kids and refused to have any with her. Their breakup wasn’t a curse; she’d welcomed it. They hadn’t been compatible, and by the end of their relationship, she’d not liked him, not even a little bit. He’d also had a great deal of criticism for her as well.

They had both moved on. He lived in the city, and she lived in the small town, with her own business.

“That’s no way to earn money,” Killian said, coming to stand beside her.

She touched her chest, letting out a yelp. “You scared me. I didn’t even see you.”

“It’s because you’re spending too much time giving kids free stuff.”

“They deserve it. They’re kids.”

Killian was one of the men who’d invited her stall to the event. He was also president of the Devils MC. She believed it was called that, but again, she didn’t keep up with MCs. Her life had become all about her work.

With a hand on her hip, she offered him a smile. “What would you like?”

“What is good?”

Killian was a cookie man. Looking over her selection, which was dwindling fast, she picked his favorite, chocolate chip, but it was a classic.

She watched as he took a bite. His eyes closed, and he moaned. “As always, delicious.”

“You don’t get to hog the best woman in town,” Diego said.

To her right, she turned, and there was Diego, president of the Rogues MC, and the other man who’d invited her.

“Someone has to stop her from giving food to all the kids for free,” Killian said.

“Would you like a muffin?” she asked.

Killian was all for the cookies, while Diego loved his muffins. Both men were … wow. On a scale of hotness, she had no idea ink could be so sexy, or MC jackets, or motorbikes.

It took great restraint not to fan herself. Both men were sex on legs. In fact, sexy couldn’t even begin to describe each man. But it didn’t matter how hot they were. She couldn’t be with them.

She was single—but there was no way to choose between either man.

Both had asked her out, and she had turned down both. They had started coming into her shop a year ago. At first, it was once every couple of weeks, but then it had gone to once a week. Now she saw them both multiple times a week, and she took food orders to deliver to each clubhouse.

They were making it hard for her to want to move on.

She hadn’t been with a man since her husband, and well, she wasn’t a cheater. There was no way she’d date two men.

“You know me, sweetheart. I will always have a muffin from you.”

His favorite was the double chocolate muffins, and she handed him one with a smile.
