Some say I'm a psychopath, others say sociopath. Deranged, demonic, unhinged. And I am, unashamedly, all of those things and so, so many more. I'm the lone daughter of The Swallow Family crime syndicate. A bloodied, violent queen reigning from a throne of bone and ash, hands and soul bathed in crimson. The one thing I'm not, though? Crazy. Or so I thought... But when I start receiving threats, start 'seeing' people that only I see and get forced to take time out, I start to wonder if they might be right about me after all. Just a crazy girl made up of twisted, shattered pieces, a half dead organ decaying inside her wounded chest and a tendency for violence. I'm Kyla-Rose Swallow and this is the beginning of my downfall. So, welcome to Southbrook, the city where Swallows rule and psychos raise hell. This is a dark, contemporary reverse harem romance, meaning the female main character will have three or more love interests and will not have to choose. The harem grows throughout the series, meaning there is not an established harem in book 1. It is a medium/fast burn romance. This is a VERY dark book, it contains heavy violence/torture scenes. If you are even a mildly sensitve reader this is probably not the book for you. The characters in this series all deal with trauma and problems differently, the resolutions and methods they use are not always traditional and therefore may not be for everyone. This is book 1 of a planned trilogy and DOES end on a cliffhanger. The series will end with a HEA.

Regret, remorse, repent. With the ghost of my past unexpectedly crashing back into my life, his presence threatening to tear through everything I’ve built, I’m quickly losing grip on my sanity. Voices start to whisper, infecting me with their poison as I struggle to battle against them. Mentally forced down into the deepest pits of hell, phantom hands trying to bury me in the fiery decay. Removed from my throne, my kingdom crumbling at my feet, my tarnished soul fractured and bleeding. I can’t see a way out of the darkness alone. But with the help of my fearless onyx-eyed demon and protective golden-eyed beast, I don’t have to anymore. My bones waging war with my flesh, my insides churning with uncertainty. I face my fears. Stalking my way through the shadows, twisting the descending fog into a weapon I can wield, I ready myself to stand-off against those that threaten to hurt me. Wait. You can see them too... right?

Betrayal. Chaos. Destruction. Love cuts deep, its sting violent. Harsh and tragic and devastating. It weakens and pollutes, tainting even the purest of souls until nothing remains but char and ash. Intentions are muddied, thoughts and feelings unclear. Disjointed ideas and fragmented ideals. Confusion rife and minds warped. Armies surviving in the shadows, using the cover of darkness to try and rebuild. Swallows are forever. But the blood of the covenant always was thicker than the water of the womb… \This is book 3, the FINAL book for Kyla-Rose and her boys in the Swallows and Psychos series. You must read all books in order to enjoy this very dark story.\ Book 1 - Purgatory Book 2 - Penance Book 3 - Persecution
