(available in KU)

Ever Rose is a small town that holds many dark secrets that lay hidden in the shadows.

BRAYDON

My eighteenth birthday was the night everything ended. Under a full moon, truths were exposed, lies were unraveled, and I ran. I left behind the only home I’d ever known and the girl I loved—now forbidden to me. I swore I’d never return to Ever Rose, convinced the past was better left buried.

Eight years later, my father is dying, and I’m the only one who can save him. I came back with a plan: do what needs to be done and leave for good. Then I saw her. Kyler Ridge—the girl I never stopped loving. Staying away is one of the most difficult things I can do, but I have to do it for her sake. Especially when she has no idea how much danger she’s in.

KYLER

The last time I saw Braydon James, I thought he was dying. Then he disappeared without a word, leaving me shattered. I picked up the pieces and put myself back together because I had no other choice.

Eight years later, he returns like a ghost in the night. I know I should stay away, but I keep getting pulled toward him. I want answers he refuses to give. How can I forgive him when I don’t know the truth? And am I ready to uncover why he really left—and the dark secrets Ever Rose has been hiding all along?

Release Blitz: Captain's Obsession by Maria Vickers

He has been waiting for her, not even the gods themselves will steal her away again.

CAPTAIN’S OBSESSION 

RBMC: St. Louis Chapter

Author: Maria Vickers

Release Date: February 24, 2026

Genres: MC, Suspense, PNR

Leo Byrne—known to his brothers in the RBMC as Captain Pink—has worn more faces than most men have memories. Across centuries, across continents, he has slipped into new identities as easily as a shadow at dusk. The son of a goddess, he was raised by strangers who feared him when they realized he was different. His brothers kept him sane, and that was enough.

Until her.

She reached for the man and tamed the storm inside him. And Fate hated them for it. Again and again, it tore her from his arms. Different lifetimes. Different places and circumstances. Same tragic ending. Eight times he has held her as the light faded from her eyes. Eight times he has failed to save the only woman he has ever loved. There will not be a ninth.

Not when he has his brothers—men as ruthless and loyal as he is. This time, he will burn the world before he lets it take her again. Gods, demons, destiny itself—let them come. He is done mourning. Now he wages war.

Deni Hart felt it the second she laid eyes on the dark, brooding biker with the dangerous eyes. A pull. Primal. Inevitable. Like gravity bending toward something unstoppable. But desire is never simple.

There’s something sinful about him. And the closer she gets, the more she feels the storm gathering around them both.

Is he her protector…or her destruction? She doesn’t know, and she isn’t sure she can trust him.

Unfortunately for her, Leo doesn’t intend to give her the option.

When he steals her from her apartment, she finds herself surrounded by leather-clad warriors and secrets older than time. As darkness closes in and unseen enemies stir, Deni must decide whether to fight the man who claims her…or surrender to the only love that has followed her across lifetimes.

My skin itched. Something was happening. Something I could not control, and I didn’t like it one bit. Pinky had gone radio silent and so had his brother. I’d tried calling Rye every hour for the last five hours, and nothing.

Then there was Enrique’s mood. He said something about losing a pair of eyes, but I had no idea what he meant by that. On one hand, I wanted to chalk it up to crazy ramblings, which was something he often did, but on the other, even crazy people spoke the truth. It didn’t sit well with me. None of it did. It felt like I was waiting for the other shoe to drop.

And my gut told me Siam was about to find herself in the middle of a war zone. Dark Leopards versus Enrique. I would do whatever it took to keep her safe and protect her. I would not allow anyone to sink their claws into her. At the same time, I felt like I was fighting an enemy with blinders on. I couldn’t see my foe coming, and I didn’t know which direction they were coming from. All I could do was jump in with both feet and hope we both survived this.

“Fang!” I had to control the urge to jump when I heard Enrique bellow.

“Yes, sir?” I answered quickly. With the mood he’d been in, I did not want to poke the beast. Not right now. My time would come, but for now, I would wait.

SNOW

As a young boy, abandoned by my parents and ripped apart from my twin sister, I learned early on that the world was full of evil and hate. I survived by living between the light and darkness, using my shifter abilities to stay alive…until one mistake should have cost me my life. Instead, it became my salvation and gave me a family and band of brothers who had my back no matter what. The Dark Leopards MC was not a gang to be trifled with, and many gave us a wide birth, and as the Sergeant At Arms, I ensured that’s the way it stayed. But someone was trying to encroach on our territory and begin a war.

I suspect the woman I saved, the woman whom I discover is my mate, is tied to it all somehow. I just have to figure out the puzzle before it’s too late.

VERITY

I was only trying to help a friend. The last thing I ever thought is that my friend would try to kidnap me, but thankfully someone or something saved me. Rushing to meet my roommate, Siam, I got another shock when the gang responsible for my brother’s death are her friends. I didn’t care if her brother had mesmerizing eyes or if I had a hard time not thinking about him. He was the enemy!

But even as my enemy, he may be my only chance to stay alive and learn the truth. And if Snow is the one protecting me in and out of bed, I wouldn’t complain too much.
