Black Dahlia

Violet Gallei has survived cancer – but surviving was only the beginning. At twenty-six, she's officially in remission and eager to reclaim her life. But freedom doesn’t come easy when the past refuses to stay buried. Her marriage has turned violent. When her husband vanishes after a brutal attack, Violet dares to hope that she’s finally free. But then the messages start. The feeling of being watched. The creeping fear that her husband might not be gone at all. At first, she tries to rationalize it — trauma, anxiety, paranoia. But when her best friend is nearly killed and her sister narrowly escapes the same fate, denial is no longer an option. Someone is hunting her. And they’re getting closer. As Violet digs deeper into the web of shadows surrounding her, she finds herself drawn to Eric – the sarcastic, unreadable doctor who helped save her life. He’s calm, controlled — and possibly more dangerous than she realizes. With no one else to trust, Violet begins to rely on him even when her inner voice screams she might be stepping into another trap. Fear turns to fury. And Violet is done running. With the people she loves under attack, she’ll do whatever it takes to protect them – even if it means becoming something more dark and twisted than whatever’s chasing her. This is the first book in The Violent Violets series. It shows the journey and devastation that leads to female rage, and ends on a cliffhanger.

After the attack, Violet Gallei wakes under the watch of a man she thought she knew. A man too good at stepping into her life as if he’d always belonged there. He says he’s protecting her. Violet isn’t sure if she’s being protected... or claimed. Her instincts whisper danger. Her heart whispers something worse. And the closer she gets to the truth behind his crooked grin, the more she realizes she may be in love with the very thing she should fear. But he isn’t the only one watching. And she isn’t the only one being hunted. When darkness comes, Violet understands one thing: Some monsters don’t want you dead. They want you broken.
