Reading order is: Black Rose, Femme Fatale (Black Rose #2)
I stopped killing as soon as I married, wanting to give my wife and her son the illusion of normalcy. Now, I'll be waking the monster within, who's lied dormant but ever-present for all these years. I've ached for the feel of a blade in my bloodstained hands. I've missed the mental aspects of cornering a victim with my deceit. I love to watch his eyes widen in disbelief, quickly followed by terror, as the realization dawns that he's met the master of his demise.
Love impelled me to stop killing, and now love is launching me back into the career of death I've so desperately missed. Many of the media outlets had surmised The Black Rose must have died or been arrested; after all, serial killers don't just quit killing. Statistically, nothing stops them except death or incarceration. However, I beat those odds, and I controlled my darker urges for the sake of my family. Now, I will unleash that part of me that hungers for blood at the request of a family member--my wife. Oh, the irony life sometimes throws our way! It's almost like fate is playing a sadistic joke on us just because she's in a mood that day, fickle bi%&$ that she is.
Genre: Mystery
