Synopsis:
Gypsy had lost faith in his fellow man and was drifting through life when he found the Rebel Wayfarers MC. Having forever been a stranger to love, he was stunned when it beckoned to him from a darkened room in faraway Oz. The route to hold the woman of his dreams might be turbulent, but now that he’s found her, he’s determined to keep her…no matter the cost.
Full description:
Douglas Tatum was a decorated police officer and considered himself a community servant loyal to the shield … back before he lost the faith. Betrayed by a man he considered a brother, he cut all ties with his past existence, drifting until he found a home with the Rebel Wayfarers MC, and their president, Mason. With renewed purpose, Gypsy, as he’s now known, threw himself into building a new life, earning his way into a trusted position in the club.
Dispatched overseas to help fulfill a club debt, Gypsy didn't expect to find his destiny under an unfamiliar canopy of stars. It took just a single trembling glance for the dark-haired, blue-eyed beauty to own his heart.
Kelsey had spent months in captivity, serving men’s sadistic whims. Endless days of living moment to moment, in darkness and pain, she had given up hope of escape until Gypsy walked through the door. With one word from him, her heart settled in her chest, and she knew she was safe. From that moment he had taken control, dispatching her enemies and her nightmares, giving her a chance to be fearless for the first time she could remember.
Now fate has thrown them another curve, and they’ll have to partner with an unlikely crew to help save another girl. In the series timeline, this story sits alongside 'Fury' (book #11).

Excerpt:
From Chapter 13 in Gypsy’s Lady, book #11.5 in the Rebel Wayfarers MC book series
Gypsy
“No girl, no cash. You think because I’m American I’m stupid, Baxter?” Gypsy shook his head in counterfeit distress, pushing to his feet from the low couch. Everything about the room screamed Baxter’s need to put himself in a superior position, and that only echoed the self-important details about the kidnapper’s compound far in the country. His men were strolling the grounds with visible weapons, but Gypsy could read the men’s unease with having so much firepower. If it came down to a fight, they wouldn’t be anything near a match for the Hawks. Now he had to talk Baxter into bringing him the girl so he could communicate the plan. Stoke and Talon both swore she had a steady head on her shoulders, and they were confident if he could tell her what was going down, she’d find a way to help. Fuck, I hope they’re right.
“I’ve got the girl. No worries.” Baxter leaned against the wall, managing to look prissy doing even that. “I want to see the cash.”
“You’ve already seen it.” Gypsy had opened the case at the gate as instructed and aimed it to where a camera could see. They’d already known about the camera, but it was validation for Myron’s info. The Hawks were able to hear everything he did, thanks to some tech the Hawks’ member Beast had handed over. They’d claimed it was undetectable, and so far, they’d been proven right, as Baxter’s man had run a wand over Gypsy, coming up with nothing. “No need to play show and tell again. You want a deal? Then I want. To see. The
girl.”
Baxter gestured towards the door and ordered, “Malcolm, go get her.”
No one spoke while they waited for the man to return, Gypsy’s gaze never leaving Baxter’s face. Filth, he thought, I’m in the presence of filth. He didn’t know if he’d ever had to fight such a strong an urge to kill a man. Here sat a wealthy beast, someone who appeared to be any businessman you’d meet on the street, but his trade was flesh. And not willing flesh, either. Other than Nary, which was personal, he seemed to specialize in women who wouldn’t be missed, preying on vulnerable girls for his own, vast profit. Dickweed needs to die.
The door opened, and it was all Gypsy could do to stay seated on the couch. The woman, scarcely more than a girl, walked in. She cringed away at the forced proximity to one of her jailers. Clearly, the man had put his hands on her in a damaging way, and Gypsy casually marked him for death. Her face was bruised and scabbed, and she carried a hell of a scar there that thankfully appeared to predate her abduction. She looked at Gypsy and her chin
lifted even as her eyes blinked rapidly, forcing back tears. A fighter, just like her father had said.
It was the work of moments to maneuver the girl near enough for him to lean in, his voice audible only to her as he spoke quickly. Once the Hawks knew he had her within reach, they’d begin executing the plan for extraction, and he didn’t have long to prep her. For an instant, he wasn’t certain his words had registered, but when he pulled back, making another crass remark to keep the illusion of the callous high-dollar purchase going, in her
eyes was a glint that told him she wasn’t done fighting. Good girl.
Counting down the seconds, he found his trust in the Hawks was well placed when Talon, Dodge, Stoke, and Vicious came through the door, exactly on time. His focus was on Nary as she was his primary objective, at least until she was back in her father’s arms.
Everything was going perfectly, until she told him there was another woman.

Author Bio:
Raised in the south, MariaLisa learned about the magic of books at an early age. Every summer, she would spend hours in the local library, devouring books of every genre. Self-described as a book-a-holic, she says “I’ve always loved to read, but then I discovered writing, and found I adored that, too. For reading … if nothing else is available, I’ve been known to read the back of the cereal box.”
A hockey fan, hiker, gamer, and single mom of a special needs son, she embraces her inner geek and has been working in the tech field for a publishing company for a couple decades.
Music is a driving passion, and she says, “I love music of nearly any genre — jazz, country, rock, alt rock, metal, classical, bluegrass, rap, hip hop … you name it, I listen to it. I can often be seen dancing through the house in the early mornings. But I really, REALLY love live music. My favorite thing with music is seeing bands in small, dive bars [read: small, intimate venues]. If said bar [venue] has a good selection of premium tequila, then that’s a plus!”
