The evil of the world was pretty cut and dry. I did my best to do good, be good, and make a positive mark on the world.
The emotions that Thatcher stirred inside me couldnt be labeled good. Now that I knew how exciting, tempting, and addicting the darkness could be, I wasnt sure I would have the strength to stay away.
Thatcher
There wasnt a moment in my life that I didnt feel detached. My earliest memory is that of my mother looking at me as if I was something to fear. Id never had a relationship with her. The ones I did have were forged from loyalty. Love was a concept that was used to explain a broad range of emotions that one felt. I had very few of those, so I didnt require labels. When a situation presented itself that required a reaction, I thought it outmade my decision. Even if those closest to me believed my actions werent something I could control. I let them think it because their misconception gave me power. I was the master of my impulse.
Except once- when wide, terrified gray eyes locked on mine. Shed been in trouble, and my questionable sanity snapped.
That day, I realized my twisted soul wasnt the only thing buried deep inside me. Perhaps it was what my mother had seen in my eyes as a child that kept her from caring for me like she did my brother. The evil that seemed to dwell but not stir had been provoked. The sweet little ministers daughter had no idea the demons shed awaken.
Capri
Just when I get a chance of a lifetime to ride for Shepherd Ranch and make a mark in the horse racing world, everything else in my life seems to take a downward spiral. Im terrible with flirting, and I cant seem to keep a guy interested long enough for any real relationship. I spend most nights alone, and my imagination is starting to get the best of me. Ive almost convinced myself there is something in the shadows watching me. I shouldnt have stopped praying. Now, my list of sins has gotten out of hand in Gods tally book. I doubted he had enough saving grace to wipe all Id done clean.
What to expect:
Mafia Romance
Revenge
He's been watching her
Unhinged/Man Obsessed
Morally Grey Hero
Will burn the world down for her
Genre: Romance
