VENGEANCE.
Hiding deep within the shadows of human nature, it smolders…
Simmers…
Waits.
Only, for me, it was no longer a hibernating beast.
The day I discovered the wrongs committed against me, vengeance clawed its way right through me. The beast had emerged from its lair with a burning need to destroy the man who tore my marriage apart.
And now?
Now, it was my lifeline.
My dark lover.
My. Whole. Purpose.

REVENGE.
They say it’s sweet in the end, and I believed them. I could almost taste that honey on my tongue, like a balm I needed to quell the bitterness.
But it was all a lie.
I was blindsided.
And not once did I think about who I might hurt along the way. I never considered the casualties that may fall across my path of destruction.
No…
Revenge is not sweet. Retaliation does not end in reward.
Vengeance is not justice.
The promises whispered by that beast within?
They’re all hollow.
All it ever wanted was to be set free.
In the end, I never expected things to be worse than when it all began.
I never expected the wreckage left in my wake.

I
never
expected
her.

REVIEWS ☆☆☆☆☆

"Revengeful, toxic, and so very raw—this love story sinks its thorns into your heart and makes you feel every emotional twist and fall. Unforgettably beautiful." — Pam Godwin, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestselling Author

"The writing from these two authors was sublime, slowly building and drawing us in, until we were thoroughly caught in an intricate web of lies and deception, which in the right light shimmered with love, passion, soul-searching, forgiveness, and understanding. Evan's POV was one of the most intense and well-written passionate and emotional male POV’s we’ve read in a while. It struck us straight in the heart." — Totally Booked Blog

"A beautifully written and well plotted book which played havoc on my heart, wringing so many emotions out of me. As readers, all we ask of authors is that they give us something unique which we can sink our teeth into, and these two went above and beyond, giving us that and more on a silver platter. You cannot compare this to anything. — KAT, Kitty Kats Crazy About Books

"The intensity of emotions, the depth of passions, sucked me under with such a death like grip, I had to stop periodically to breathe through my tears. The poetic justices meted out by the authors becomes entirely overwhelming towards the end. The ironies of role reversals are truly poignant to read. I could ramble all night long about this magnificent book but I urge you, beseech you, to pickup this book on release day and devour it like I did non-stop." — BookBistroBlog

"It will shock you. It will rock you to the core. The angst will break you beautifully. And trust me, the tears and the pain are all worth it. It will push your boundaries and make you feel all the raw, gritty, complex and confusing feels. If you survive it without wanting to kill the authors, you will win." — PP's Bookshelf

"There are books that are awesome, you enjoy reading them, & you give them 5 stars. Then there are books like this that are forever engraved into your heart, mind, & soul. I was not prepared for this & you probably won’t be either. Holy WOW! This was a brilliant, soul-changing masterpiece by Jennifer & Chelley. It flowed so incredibly well that I couldn’t tell who wrote what. I’m so grateful to them for giving us a part of themselves that we get to keep forever. What an impact & legacy!" — Samantha, Goodreads Reviewer
