VALERIE When Gabe left all those years ago without saying goodbye, losing him nearly destroyed me. He was my protector. My confidant.
And completely off-limits.
When my so-called friends humiliate me in front of most of the town on my birthday, who shows up to comfort me? None other than my long-lost stepbrother, Gabe.
I’d say he hasn’t changed a bit, but that would be a lie. I can’t deny the attraction I have for him, how I touch myself to the thought of him. But how can I forgive him for abandoning me after my father’s passing?
When my old friend circle starts dropping dead, people begin to talk. There might be a serial killer on the loose. But the question is, are they on my side?
Or am I next?
GABE After my stint in Hollywood, I returned to my old life in New York—only to stumble upon my former stepsister crying on the side of the road.
I see the pain in Val’s eyes, a testament to the cruelty inflicted by those she once called friends. I vowed to protect her—and I will become the monster that preys upon them instead, so she never has to fear again.
They have no idea how far I’ll go to keep her safe.
Acting in b-horror movies doesn’t exactly pay the bills, so I had gotten involved with the mob. Started working as a hitman. I didn’t care who I killed as long as it paid well. And unfortunately for Val’s old friends, I’m good at what I do.
Because this town will pay for what they did.
No one will ever harm my Butterfly again.
This is a dark romance intended for an adult audience. Please see the author's website for a comprehensive list of CWs.
