Bad Bastards
Falling in love might just be the dumbest move Patton has ever made.
Patty Dawson is beautiful – tall, with most of her length in her legs – and Patton has fallen head over heels. Patty is also Bobby Hodge’s daughter and that means she’s off-limits to guys like Patton.
Bobby runs the Bad Bastards Motorcycle Club with an iron fist – he runs his family the same way - and when he finds out about Patton and his only daughter it was only ever going to go one way, badly.
Beaten to a pulp and under threat of death, Patton is determined to find a way to be with the girl he loves no matter what the cost, but as the stakes get higher he has to decide just how far he’s willing to go in the name of love.

Paul Heatley
It’s hard to shake the grit of a Paul Heatley novel once you’ve stepped into his world. Stark, unsentimental, and laced with the raw nerve of noir, his stories don’t just depict violence and desperation—they breathe them. Hailing from the northeast of England, Heatley writes like a man who knows what it means to stare down hard truths. His fiction doesn’t flinch, and neither do his characters.
While he’s not a household name, Heatley has carved out a loyal following among crime fiction purists and noir aficionados—readers who crave the dark, the dirty, and the deeply human. His breakout work, The Motel Whore, set the tone early: stripped-down prose, seedy settings, and people clawing for survival. Since then, he’s built a body of work that reads like a bruised knuckle—sharp, direct, and unapologetically raw.
