Adam Payback’s a bitch — or it would be for Elle. Fifteen years ago, my sister was kidnapped. For months, she’d endured hell. Somehow, she’d survived it. Someway, she’d escaped her captors. But it hadn’t mattered. In fact, it had been like losing her twice, because six weeks after she came home, she was dead, and the man responsible was alive and well, oblivious to her fate, ignorant to what he had coming. Fifteen years I’d been waiting for this moment, all that time, planning, preparing, readying to put things into motion. To finally make the SOB pay for what he’d done. Killing him was too easy. Too quick. No. There was a much better way to exact revenge. Take what he loved best. Break it. Break her. I just didn’t realize that in the process of destroying the girl, I’d destroy myself.
Elle “I only want your pain.” I hadn’t understood what those words meant, not really. Not until he made me understand. I noticed Adam the very first day he moved into my building. He was a badass on a bike in a thousand-dollar suit. When he looked at me, it was with a hunger just this side of obscene. Our meetings were strange, accidental. Too coincidental. There was something about Adam. Something I couldn’t put my finger on. Something I couldn’t resist. He told me I didn’t know him. He warned me to run as far from him as I could. He was moody. Dark. I’d found it romantic. I didn’t know and wouldn’t realize until it was too late that he’d meant for me to heed his warnings. That some part of him had hoped I would run, that I would escape him. For too many years, vengeance had fueled him. It had taught him hate. The object of that hate? My father. And me? I was the means to my father’s end. Adam would destroy my father by destroying me. I accused him of being a monster, of being no different than those who took his sister, but even in the harshest moments, all I could see in his eyes was pain. And like a fool, all I wanted was to touch that darkness. To make it light.
Retribution is a full-length, stand-alone Dark Romantic Suspense novel. NO Cliffhanger. Intended for mature readers.
Adam "Smith" is a man on a mission. He will destroy the man he holds responsible for his sister's death. It has taken him fifteen years to be in a position to enact his retribution. Death is not enough he must destroy what the man loves most. He doesn't realize the effect that it will have on him.
Elle Vega is a spoiled rich girl. She tries to play down the benefit of her father's money by working as a photographer. She would rather take "real" photos, like she does in her spare time. Elle knows there are those who are struggling to make any sort of life, and has an idea how to help them. She doesn't know the half of it.
This book takes us on a very emotional journey. Our hero is tortured by his memories and encouraged by others to get the job done. Our heroine is an innocent caught in a nightmare. All she wants is to help. A book that will keep you on the edge, and make you think, hard, about those you think you know.
