Description

Michael Levine is backed into a corner. He started tearing apart cars for the local mob with the best of intentions—to save up money to pay for his mechanic certifications and impress his crush and mentor, Ben. But Michael soon finds himself in way over his head. He knows stealing is wrong, but it's only cars, and the insurance will pay to replace them, right? What started out as a small job to make some extra bucks soon turns into a nightmare he's not sure he'll ever be able to find his way out of. Ben Jelen isn't sure where his life is going. On the surface everything looks fine. He has a successful business, he's raising his niece into a strong person, and he has a boyfriend most guys only dream of--sexy and rich. But nothing feels right. The only things that really keep Ben's attention anymore are his classic Road Runner, his niece, and Michael—his Meeko. Ben took him under his wing forever ago, and their love of old cars and fast driving has forged a strong bond. Ben's days don't feel right if he doesn't get to see Meeko at least once. But something seems drastically wrong in Meeko's life, and Ben hopes he can put the pieces together to help him before it's too late. **This book was previously released by NineStar Press in August of 2018. It has never before been in Kindle Unlimited.**
