It’s too late to go back and change the past. Diplomacy is out of the question. The only way forward is through the death and destruction The Devil leaves in her path.
As the daughter of a police lieutenant, Felicia’s black-and-white worldview is shaken to the core when she’s pulled into the criminal underground with only one hope of safety.
Hopping on the back of some tatted guy’s bike.
The longer Felicia spends with his crew, Dead Man’s Metal, the more her views fade to gray and the deeper she finds herself falling for the last person she should want.
With failing health and a need for justice, Jagger rides with his crew on the wrong side of the law, in the middle of an all-out war, and finds himself desperate for a connection that’s impossible.
With her.
In trying to loosen Diablo’s grip on Felicia, Jagger and his crew effectively seal their fate. With the growing bond between Jagger and Felicia, and Diablo’s increasingly lethal tactics, the men of Dead Man’s Metal will have only one choice:
Protect those they hold dear or die trying.
Unlikely allies form, a war breaks out, and lives change forever in this dark romantic suspense that follows the first of the Dead Man’s Metal crew.

Dead Man’s Curse is the first in this spicy, vigilante thriller / romantic suspense series packed with wild thrills, a crew of morally gray men, and scorching spice that leaves you begging for more.

With Diablo weakened in the aftermath of an alliance strike, especially with Eva missing, Diablo has no apparent offense. However, a seed was planted long ago that has now come to fruition.
Jackson's cousin, Trevor, is a fighter in search of the one event that can make his career take off. When his sister, Sydney, comes with him to what turns out to be an underground fight, though, he can't win. Life moves fast, Sydney's nursing training kicks in, and Skidz arrives to assist her in an impromptu mission.
While Skidz isn't trained in field work and fights a health battle of his own, he refuses to let Sydney or her brother down. He left his job as a mechanic to drive for the crew for his friend, Jagger, but he now tackles operations for her life. Putting his own needs aside, Skidz pushes to join missions just to protect Sydney.
When Sydney realizes her family will never be safe until Diablo is dismantled, she agrees to do whatever it will take to gather information. Even if it means going back to her workplace. Not knowing how much time he has, Skidz endures being a patient to put himself between Sydney and Diablo.
A connection grows between them, first an attraction and then a friendship. They may both want more, but with his medical test results looming and enough baggage to make things messy for both of them, will they be able to set aside their doubts and find happiness together?
