 Prologue
 
 Lincoln
 
 “Nice of you to finally show up,” Deacon says.
 
 Grabbing the pitcher of beer from the center of the table, he raises his eyebrow at me. When I nod, he pours me one.
 
 “Family shit.” I accept the mug and take a drink. I’m usually not a big drinker, but tonight it feels like I’ve earned it.
 
 “Your dad?” Tucker asks.
 
 “Always.”
 
 Deacon wraps his hands around his mug. “How is he?”
 
 “Same shit, different day.”
 
 “Still sober?”
 
 I shake my head. “Fell off the wagon again.”
 
 “Damn.” Tucker grips my shoulder and frowns. “Maybe next time. I’m sorry, dude.”
 
 “Don’t be,” I say, shrugging him off because I’m grumpy—the same way I always am when I leave Dad’s house.
 
 “You okay?” he asks.
 
 Fuck, no. I’m working my ass into the ground and taking care of a man who used to beat the livin’ shit out of me.
 
 “Hell no, I’m not okay. I’m exhausted.” Taking my hat off, I run my hand through my hair and then put it ba
 
 ck on.
 
 “You know what you need?” Deacon asks.
 
 Lifting my mug, I take another drink. “Something stronger?”
 
 “Nah, man. You don’t want to get into the same shit your dad got into.”
 
 My stomach sours at the thought, and I push my beer to the center of the table. The last thing I need is to turn into my father.
