Beautiful, Violent
Part 1 of the Beautiful, Violent series
I’m out for vengeance, and I won’t stop until King’s blood is on my hands.
Don’t let my beauty fool you. I’m a killer.
And I’ve been trained by my best friend Rigger to find and kill King—the leader of a child sex trafficking ring and the man responsible for murdering my mother, killing my innocence, and obliterating my faith in men.
I’m this close to finding him too, when one of my kills drops a name.
Benjamin Figueiredo.
He works with King, knows exactly where I can find him and slip a knife into his throat.
So I do everything I can to cozy up to Benjamin.
No matter how much I hate him.
No matter how badly I don’t want to need him.
No matter how hard I might fall for him.
Or how fast it drives a wedge between me and Rigger.
Nothing will stop me. I’m out for vengeance.
I’ll put myself and my heart in harm’s way to track and murder the bastard.
But the closer I get to King, the more I realize …
Being in harm’s way doesn’t matter when your world is about to shatter once again.
