What doesn't kill me had better start running... Life as I knew it ended with a bullet. It stole my brother from me and destroyed my family. From the ashes, I rose stronger and meaner, to exact the kind of revenge best served bloody and cold. I took out every single person I held responsible. Except one. He's a phantom but his days are numbered. Because I won't stop until I'm done. Then she shows up. The forbidden fruit. A light to my darkness. I should resist her because what I touch, I destroy. And my feisty wildflower deserves more. More than this. More than me. But there is a monster lurking in the shadows. A psychopath. Watching her. Watching us. His threats torment her. And they make my black heart burn. But he should know. You don't ever mess with me, or the people I love.
