From The Publisher:
They took too much.
Left too little.
I had nothing to lose...until him.
*****************
~Lana~
I didn't expect him.
I didn't want to fall in love.
But I can't let him go.
Logan Bennett makes the world a safer place.
He's brilliant.
He's a hero.
He locks away the sick and depraved.
But while he's saving lives, I'm taking them. Collecting the debts that are owed to me.
Ten years ago, they took from me. They left me for dead.
They should have made sure I stayed dead.
Now I'm taking from them.
One name at a time.
I've trained for too long.
I've been patient.
I can't stop now.
Revenge is best served cold...
They never see me coming, until I paint their walls red.
Logan doesn't know how they hurt me. He doesn't know about the screams they ignored. He doesn't know how twisted that town really is.
He just knows people are dying.
He doesn't know he's in love with their killer.
No one suspects a dead girl.
And Logan doesn't suspect the girl in his bed.
They're looking for a monster.
Not a girl who loves red.
Not a girl in love.
I'm a faceless nightmare.
At least until I tell them the story they've pretended never happened.
But in the end, will Logan choose them? Or will we watch them burn together?

SYNOPSIS:

MY THOUGHTS
I have been reading rave reviews about this series, and I can’t wait to read the remaining 4.
Books are all free on Kindle Unlimited.
Book is short. Ended on a cliffhanger, so I am ready to start book 2.
Wish these books has different covers because I almost didn’t read when I saw the cover art.
Love the theme of a strong woman taking revenge on a group of men who did unthinkable things to her
TL;DR: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Short, fast-paced suspense. Book 1 of 5 in series. Free on kindle unlimited. Ends on cliffhanger & pulls you in!
It was a fun ride, not my usual cup of tea but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I like how morally grey Lana is, it gave me food for thought and I loved discussing it with my boyfriend.
Strong female lead, escalating suspense, hot romance
A melhor protagonista feminina! Que livro! Amei.
