He can’t change the scars on her body…
but fate will give him a second chance to mend the scars he put on her heart.

Riley Sullivan and the Ex Ops Team are headed to Miami undercover… as bikers. Following up a lead, the men will perform their investigation acting as members of the Regulators Motorcycle Club with the club’s permission. Surrounded by hardcore bikers and investigating missing strippers, Riley finds the last person he ever expected to see again—his ex-wife.

Kara Sullivan left the man she loved after a tragic accident cost them their unborn son. After years of therapy, she’s come to grips with the loss and has re-emerged from the pain a brand new person. That doesn’t mean she’s ready to face the man who inadvertently broke her heart, and who she’s hurt in return.

Riley has never stopped loving her and he never will. He’s ready to fix their marriage and move on with their lives, however Kara’s reluctance to renew their relationship isn’t their only problem. Danger lurks just around the corner… and there’s a chance she could disappear permanently.

Excerpt

I was so focused on her, so oblivious to everything else, a bomb could have gone off right next to me, and I would never even have known to kiss my ass goodbye.
This had happened only one other time in my life.
The first time I’d laid eyes on Kara.
I didn’t know who the fuck this woman was, but I knew what she was about to become.
Mine.
All fucking mine.
A sick, twisted part of me mocked how much she looked like my Kara: same tanned skin with that subtle red undertone, same dark brown hair color and molten chocolate eyes. Did it really fucking matter, though?
Mission or no mission, I would make this woman mine in every way that counted while I was here. I could figure out the future later. Fate didn’t hand you moments in life like this so youcould fucking ignore them.
She must have felt my eyes on her because, all of a sudden, she got this adorable little furrow between her brows and shifted her gaze to see the room behind her in the mirror. That’s when her eyes locked with my own and she gasped, dropping her lipstick. Twirling around on her high heels, one of her hands reached up to cover the area of chest over her heart, and a
strangled sound left her throat. 
Taken aback by her reaction, I was about to apologize for obviously scaring her when I hadn’t meant to, but Lucas’s voice rang out from down the hall before I could open my mouth.
“Yo! Sullivan! Bring your ass down here and stop checking the girls out.”
I turned my head in Lucas’s direction as I flipped him the bird, but I was again cut off by a voice before I could tell him he could shove it up his as s. Only, this time, the voice that interrupted me was soft, feminine, and one I heard every night in my dreams.
“Riley?”
Motherfucker.
That scantily clad stripper was my goddamn wife!

Stripping Her Defenses’ Dream Cast

Riley Before 1

nikki_reed_Kara
 Riley is your all-American guy, but with a few alpha man tendencies. I have to admit, Chelsea Camaron helped me pick out this dream cast because according to her, Riley Sullivan is her book husband. Who she game me though, oh boy… he was a pretty close fit for how I saw Riley in my head. She also happened to pick an actor who starred in one of my favorite movies, Starship Trooper. Casper Van Dien. *swoons* He’s so handsome that I sort of want to steal him from Chelsea Camaron. ;D
For Kara, I would cast Nikki Reed. She comes across as both a subtle exotic beauty from her mixed ethnic heritage, with a touch of the girl next door. For me, she fit Kara perfectly except I imaged Kara a good bit curvier. That aside, she’s a fabulous representation of my good little Navy SEAL wife turned stripper!

She’s an investment banker.
He’s an outlaw biker.
A little bit of heaven is about to meet a whole lot of hell.

Morgan Powell was raised to be perfect, to set an example for her sisters to follow. Her life has been dedicated to making something of her career, so she wouldn’t know what to do with a man even if you gave her an instruction manual.

Brett ‘Ice’ Grady spends his days trying to keep up with his teenage daughter, his nights consumed in Regulators’ MC business. He has no time for anything more than a casual hookup.

Two worlds collide when the dangers of his life crash into the calm of hers.

Can she go beyond her own boundaries and chip her way through to the man known to be as cold as ice?
