ABOUT THE BOOK
Lakey
The past never stays buried. From childhood, it was clear that my body was never my own. My mind kept me safe, shielding me from things better left in the dark. I don’t remember life before Cam Axley and I’m not sure I want to. Cam holds the key to whatever is left of my heart. Every piece of me was forged by those who saw me as nothing more than something to use-except him. He calls me his beautiful little psycho. But now, with the truth clawing its way to the surface, I’m forced to confront the monster I was made to be. I’m not just a weapon they bred. I am the darkness that was programmed into me. And if I’m going to survive this wicked game, I’ll have to face my past, even if it means burning the last pieces of light in my soul.
Cam
I am the monster I was created to be. The rage is all that’s left of me, the only thing that keeps the demons at bay. I am the wildcard, the monster hiding in the dark. Lakey Aldrich… she’s the only one who still sees me—really sees me—and maybe that’s why I’m still here. Together, we’ve made it this far, holding each other through this hell. We are bound by the fire that tried to destroy us. There once was a time where we tried for a normal life. But the more I remember, the more I realize there’s no escape from the person I’ve become. The past isn’t something I can redeem. It’s the thing that defines me, and it’s coming for me, piece by piece. We’ll be waiting. Our love isn’t soft or gentle. It’s fire and blood. And it’s the screams of everyone who gets in our way.
