Float's Focus (Ozark Ridgerunners MC #17)

He never stops moving. She’s the reason he finally stands still.

Delaney Cross traded classified operations for golden hour.

After four years as an Army photographer documenting things that didn’t officially exist, she built Ozark Light to prove she could capture beauty instead of corpses.

She doesn’t need a protector. Doesn’t need complications.

And she definitely doesn’t need the restless prospect who shows up at her studio door like he’s already decided she belongs to him.

Then a man smashes her camera and promises next time it won’t be equipment.

They picked the wrong photographer to threaten.

Float handles river logistics for the Ridgerunners—the routes nobody else knows, the deliveries that can’t be traced.

A former outfitter who lost everything when a partner robbed him blind, he keeps hustling because standing still means getting burned.

He’s never let anyone close enough to see what he looks like when he stops running.

But when he finds a woman with fire in her eyes and a target on her back, something shifts in a man who swore he’d never trust again.

She documented the wrong people. That makes her his to protect.

What starts as club business becomes something far more dangerous.

Every touch is a claim. Every look is a warning to anyone watching.

And as Delaney is pulled deeper into the Ridgerunners’ world—into Float’s bed, into his life, into the brutal war against a surveillance empire that wants her silenced—she realizes she’s not just falling for a man who drowns his enemies in Ozark water.

She’s becoming the reason he finally stops running.

His old lady. His stillness. His everything.

But the voyeur with cameras and money isn’t finished. He’s watching from the shadows, sending men to burn her studio and hunt her down. To survive, Delaney will have to stop hiding behind her lens and start fighting back.

A woman who sees the man beneath the hustle—and the most dangerous thing he’s ever wanted to keep.
