Exquisite Danger

For the first time, the narrator feels fully accepted by a man who loves her as she is, including her quirks as a high-functioning autistic woman. Her boyfriend, Smoke, is a biker whom many people consider dangerous, someone who will go after anyone who threatens what belongs to him. The narrator agrees that he can be frightening, but she sees far more in him: a protector trying, with fierce devotion, to shield her from a world that seems determined to kill her or worse.

The two are traveling to the Denver, Colorado chapter of the Iron Horse MC in pursuit of the narrator's mother, a narcissistic addict who stole from dangerous men and left her daughters to face the consequences. The narrator's twin sister, Sarah, is the old lady of the club president and is also searching for their mother, but she has gone off on her own with no one watching her back, which frightens the narrator. Traitors inside the club are working with the mother, helping her escape while passing every move the narrator makes to her enemies.

The odds are against her, but the narrator is determined to protect the people she loves. With Smoke beside her, she hopes she might survive the mess she is in.
