Ruthless Sinner is a murder mystery romance novel that might be a
Hallmark title if it were set in a bakery but my Spirit is a stripper
and Coop runs a drug lab, that's not likely to happen.
Talking about the universal ethic, taking care of loved ones.
My heroine, Spirit, is a classy lady, and she deserves a fairy-tale
ending.
Two mins only, what I love about bringing back previous characters and
my fave bit in Dark Hunter where Chloe, Solitaire and Nats arrive. No

Nietzsche
was interested in morality, particularly in truth, good and evil. The abyss theme
is one of his most famous.
I'm interested in monsters too, and so I created Rip Marston, a perfect
monster.
When we meet Rip, he's a day shy of his 18th birthday. Just weeks before, Rip
was an actor, just a kid, taking on his first stage role, but on a path to a
happy life on the boards - except, a criminal gang killed his family in a
robbery.
Because of this, Rip is consumed by pain. In chapter one, he stalks and kills
Greasy Sykes, just as he stalked and skilled Greasy's mates, because revenge is
his only relief.
When Rip kills, the pain is replaced by power - aka his monster.
Nietzsche believed that unbridled hate, fear or righteousness feeds our inner
shadow. So those who are consumed by fighting evil, become evil themselves.
I think he's right. So, in this zeta cartel novel, I take the classic setup.
Unbridled hate, righteousness and monster slaying dominate the start of Dark
Hunter.
In the first chapter, we don't just see Rip kill a monster, Greasy; we're
witnessing the death of a talented young man. Rip dives headfirst into the
abyss. By the time midnight strikes, Rip is 18 and no longer human. The monster
has consumed him.
By the time we see him again, ten years have passed. The monster is in complete
control. So much so that Rip is no longer capable of passing for human. The Mafia,
the Camora, the Bratva, and the Zetas see right through him. They're violent as
it's part of their business. Rip is different and they know it. Their
horror and revulsion are instinctive.
So, can Rip be saved? When Morgan is thrown in his lap, coughed up from the
depths of a dark river, will she be able to salvage him? Or will he kill her?
It's a cartel romance, but it's also dark romance. So I'm not hinting at the
ending here.
See what happens and tell me if you think Rip was saved or not?
Here's me talking
about Natalia, the heroine of Dirty Dealings, and gabbing about how reserving
justice for 'the deserving' leads to the undeserving taking a deep dive into serious
crime 😊

It's a dark
romance trope that the heroine is broken, but Solitaire, the heroine in Songbird,
is nothing of the kind. A few words about how I created her, and why I love
her. Tell me what you think. No spoilers, so you can watch safely.
