Merry is hiking through Scotland, in part to try and reconnect with her mother, who just recently passed away, and also to find some new focus in her life. Always having been on the heavier side, Merry is still getting used to her new body, after having lost a large amount of weight, and not everyone seems to appreciate the change. A three week vacation roughing it in the Scottish Highlands will hopefully allow her to learn a bit more about herself. But when Merry is only a few days' hike away from her destination, she falls ill and knows she is in a lot of trouble if she doesn't get help soon.

He lives a very basic existence by choice. Rob has isolated himself in the Scottish Highlands in a very spartan cottage, with a mangy dog as his only companion. He has been there for two years, ever since he completely ran his life off the rails, avoiding human contact as much for their protection as for his own. But when the injured woman turns up at his door, he can hardly turn her away, and reluctantly, while her nurses her back to health, he discovers part of him is actually enjoying her upbeat personality.

When she had suggested her employer, Jackson Cole company, sponsor pro surfer, Dylan Schell, Brooke Lowry never expected him to fly off the rails completely. And least of all that she would be sent to Tahiti to break up his current fascination with drinking, drugs and debauchery, and haul his ass back home to try and salvage what was left of his image. The directives from her sleazy boss were clear; get him home, clean him up, or look for another job.

Dylan was getting back on his game after his accident last year. Sure, he had a bit of a rough go for a while there, and his head really hadn't been on straight, made a few bad calls, but now that his body was back on track and he was starting to gain his way up in the standings again, things weren't as bad. All he did now was occasionally blow off some steam......enough volunteers to help him with that!

So when a buttoned-up assistant manager from his biggest sponsor walked in on two lovely girls helping him unwind a little, of course he invited her to join them....

Withstanding Me is the second book in the Breakneck Series and although each book has an individual focus, the general red thread is the ongoing life within the world of the MC Breakneck. It is almost impossible to read these books as stand alone novels and I would highly recommend reading them in order. The firsts book to read would be Seize Me.

*********

After a few months of unrest, mayhem and some significant losses, it was quiet for a little while in the Breakneck compound, but in this life that never lasts long. The new club has been opened and Storm, one of the rescued girls from a rival's 'stable' is now managing the place, while Braxxon and Winter are making other big plans for the future of the MC.

ZZ grew up in the compound, he knows no other life than that of a biker. At thirteen he found out he was a father when and older girl ended up dropping his daughter off at the clubhouse. Tatiana has been his ever since. Now eighteen herself, she is out of control, making his life a living hell. She has her eye on new member Shadow who is trying hard to keep his distance, not wanting to piss off his brother. Rival MC president Travis has taken a shine to Tatiana and that has her Breakneck family bedding over backwards to keep her safe. All the more reason for contrary Tatiana to drive especially her father nuts by slipping out from under her protection, ever chance she gets, and running into trouble.
