Shadowed Heart

2021

Murder. Payback. Chaos. If you’re looking for a story about unicorns and rainbows, this ain’t it. Now, if you’re in the mood for something a little psychotic and a whole lot crazy, then you’re in the right place. I’m Lola Harding. My parents used to call me their angel, but they’re dead now. For the last few years, I’ve made a name for myself—the Night Slayer. I stalk the clubs and make sure anyone with greedy hands and stupid ideas is permanently taken off the streets. One night I happen to kill the son of a crime lord, and then everything changes. They’re going to kill me, I know, but until they do, I’m to be their pet, wear their leash, and do whatever they say. The Lucianos are a family full of psychos and hatred… and I just might fit in better than I ever did anywhere else. And as a bonus? The other sons are the handsome and dangerous type, and even though they despise me for what I did to their brother, even though there might not be any light left for me at the end of this tunnel… I plan to enjoy the ride. Buckle up, b\*tches, because it’s about to get wild. \\Shadowed Heart is the first in a planned trilogy. It is an RH/Why Choose series, meaning there are multiple love interests, steamy scenes, and some things you might find triggering: violence, mentions of abuse, etc.\\

Crooked Heart

2021

Blood. Death. Control. A girl with a crooked, vengeful heart like me wasn’t made for a happy ending. It’s me again. Lola Harding, the Night Slayer, the girl who f\*cked up and killed a crime lord’s son. The Lucianos are using me however they like, and that’s fine. It’s kind of fun to never know when you’re going to breathe your last breath. But… now they know the truth. My truth. My past and how ugly it is. The things that turn girls into their worst nightmares. I’ve seen the devil and smiled. I’m not afraid. Not of the DeLucas, the blood enemies of the Lucianos. Not of the scheming or the plotting. Put me on a stage and tell me to sing, and I’ll give you the best damn show you’ve ever seen. I do not fear death. I’ve been waiting for it my entire life. But Maddox, Sylvester, and Viper make my heart feel things it never has before. Cliched? You f\*cking bet, but life has a way of laughing at you, giving you the things you never knew you wanted before stealing the rug out from under you. We’re all on the same wild ride here, and we’re heading towards disaster. And this time? This time it’ll be my fault. \\Crooked Heart is the second in a planned trilogy. It is an RH/Why Choose series, meaning there are multiple love interests, steamy scenes, and some things you might find triggering: violence, mentions of abuse, etc.\\

Violent Heart

2021

Revenge. Torture. Hate. No good men live in this city. Only bad men and worse—and those who are worse will get what’s coming to them, even if I have to die trying. You know my name by now. I never was an angel, and I plan on proving that again before death catches up with me. I’ve killed countless, and before this thing is over, I’ll kill more. I’ll destroy them all. The Bloody Princess wants me to kill the remaining Luciano sons, but what she doesn’t know is they have my heart, as violent as it is. Maddox, Sylvester, even Viper—I will become their instrument of vengeance. No one will touch them. I will burn this city down if I have to, even if it means I’ll be caught in the blaze. I never feared death. I’ve searched for it all my life. The Night Slayer is about to go head-to-head with the new head of the DeLuca family. I wish I could say she’s a worthy opponent… but that b\*tch has no idea just how brutal and crazy I can be. No one threatens me or my guys.

Hey. Hey you. It's me. Lola Harding, AKA the Night Slayer, the serial killer offing the men who think they can take advantage of gals like us. I used to be an angel, but now I'm nothing but the devil, delivering a bloody justice anywhere I go. I'm not afraid of death. Bring it on, I say.

Tit for tat, but instead of killing me right away, they decide to have some fun with little ol' me. Use me up. Make me their pet serial killer. Who knows? Might be fun. One last ring-a-ding before the fat lady sings. I've been waiting for my final curtain call, and maybe these drop-dead gorgeous Lucianos are exactly what I need. Blood. Vengeance. Chaos. We'll have it all and more by the time this thing's over. \Contains: Shadowed Heart, Crooked Heart, and Violent Heart, along with a bonus scene never seen anywhere else. This is a steamy RH/Why Choose series, meaning multiple love interests and no choosing. TW: violence, swearing, mentions of abuse, along with others.\

Hey guys! I'm a writer, an office worker, a wife, a mother to two dogs and two cats, and half of a strange pair of young adults who flip the houses they're living in with the goal of having no mortgage (so that I can eventually focus on my writing career!). Needless to say, I'm busy. Still, I somehow find time to write, to read, and to enjoy life. Wish there were more hours in the day, really! If you're active on Goodreads and have similar interests, friend me. I don't bite. Or if you'd rather follow my reviews, you can do that, too. Happy reading!
