Six years ago, I thought I could escape the devil.

I was dead wrong.

Kreos Zokrov has found me, and this time, running from him isn’t an option. New York’s most feared mafia boss swears I’ve stolen from him, and to spare my family, he demands the one thing I swore I’d never give.

My freedom.

I’ve spent my life fighting and clawing my way through the streets to protect my siblings. I was so close to a new life, until Kreos dragged me back into his world of power and mayhem. But the worst part isn’t the constant danger…it’s that I feel safer with the monster than anywhere else.

He doesn’t just love. He possesses.

He doesn’t just protect. He destroys.

And when he says I belong to him, he means forever.

But with enemies closing in, and the past refusing to stay buried, the war between us threatens to burn everything to the ground.

If I want to survive this time, I’ll have to make a choice…

Embrace his darkness or be consumed by it.

I ran from him once.

He’ll never let me do it again.

FROM WALL STREET JOURNAL AND USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR, NICOLE JAMES COMES A STEAMY, AGE GAP, MC ROMANCE.

The MC President and the innocent girl who brought him to his knees. A tale of obsession, revenge and redemption.

Las Cruces, New Mexico…

The sun rises over the rugged mountains to the east and sets over the muddy Rio Grande River to the west.

An hour from the Tex/Mex border, it was a quiet town until the rumble of our motorcycles rolled in and we took control.

Now the Saint’s Outlaws run this town and everything in it.

No one does business without the MC’s okay.

We take a cut of everything, and in exchange, we offer protection.

If you need something, you come to us.

We own the law, we own the mayor, and if you come to our town, we’ll own you, too.

Rio—

As enforcer of the Saint’s Outlaws' Mother Chapter, I was sent to Las Cruces, NM to set up a drug connection with the Mexican cartel.

When the deal went south, and the drugs and money were stolen, I made sure our chapter got its money back.

The personal cost to me was high, and I spent ten long years in prison for my MC.

Now I’m going back to the town that convicted me and sent me away.

With the blessing of our Saints Outlaws mother chapter and with those brothers brave enough to join me,

I’m going to set up my own chapter, take the town over and make it ours.

Revenge will be mine, and it will be sweet.

Las Cruces, I'm coming for you.

And then I’m coming for the sweet angel who testified against me.

#BookTour: Doing Good & Doing Well by @MikeKaufman_ @RABTBookTours

 

Nonfiction / Leadership

Date Published: 12/24/23

 

 

INSPIRING HELPING PROFESSIONALS TO BECOME LEADERS IN THEIR ORGANIZATIONS

 

This book is the product of a 30-year career (and counting!) focused on doing good in the world, spent on trying to improve the quality of life of self and others, and dedicated to fulfilling the needs of those most in need.

In it, Michael shares his personal experiences with organizational leadership and his insights on what makes a good leader in the helping professions, incorporating anecdotes, case studies, and current cultural profiles to illustrate his points and arguments.

Though not a memoir, each chapter of this narrated guidebook reflects the author’s viewpoints on the essential and extolled roles helpers hold in the workplace and why their particular contributions and talents have never been needed more and should be valued like never before.

People who do good in the world can also do well—more than that, they deserve to do well on the basis of their altruism and commitment. If you’re looking to advance your helping professional career while simultaneously advancing the human condition for the people you serve and for society at large, you’ll find much in these pages that speaks to you … and hopefully inspires you to make even more of a difference than you already are.
