There are three ways you become a Monarch
1. Born to it
2. Marry into the family
3. Take it

They stole it

And I had a choice: 
Fall into line, serve our new King, or fight.

My new motto?

It’s only treason if you lose.

Excerpt

Location: Afghanistan

The afternoon sun shimmered against the horizon, heavy and ominous. Sunglasses cut through most of the glare, as sweat slid down the bridge of my nose. The heat of the day coupled with the lack of breeze had the marketplace stinking of rotten food.
Heartbeat elevated, stomach clenched, eyes narrowed—I was watchful. I kept reminding myself the monarch would only be in Afghanistan for less than forty-eight hours.
A lot could go wrong in forty-eight hours.
A car idling near the escort caught my attention. We were waiting for the monarch to finish his meeting with the newly elected president. I didn't like the position of the car.
"ALPHA One to CHARLIE Four, can you guys shift the white Toyota?"
"Roger, ALPHA One."
One minute. Two. No movement of the vehicle. My gut clenched. Something wasn't right.
The radio crackled. "ALPHA One, looks like a flat."
"Fuck." My eyes met Jack's before he looked back over at the car. I shifted my piece, using my free hand to click the radio. "CHARLIE, is it legit? What's the cargo?"
"Seems so. Just a bunch of fruit." Grover's voice was sarcastic in reply. I gritted my teeth. I couldn't wait till that little gnat went home.
My eyes flicked around the busy city centre, assessing. "CHARLIE, I need that vehicle moved in the next five. BETA team, start prepping secondary exit." I dropped my hand, turning to Jack. "This doesn't feel right."
"No." His face was grim as he watched the heaving mass of the market. "Something smells off." His smile was immediate. "Pun unintended."
I ignored him. "I'm going to raise the threat level." I raised my hand again to my equipment.
A voice crackled through the radio, halting my move. "Rose on the move."
 I hit the call button. "All teams be alert. Threat raised to Amber."
Jack fell into step beside me. "Secondary exit?"
I nodded, deciding it was a go. "I don’t like this."
I saw The Rose hit the exit, bodyguards flanking him. He had personal protection from Katura and some of our best on him, including Colonel Foster. There was no reason to feel this anxious.
I met the colonel's gaze as we started towards the entourage, my hand raising to signal our change of plans. He nodded, turning towards The Rose.
The red dot hovered for a brief moment on the king's chest.
"Get down!"
"Incoming!"

Since that day, long ago, Araneae McCrie has been mine. 

 She just didn’t know.

Cold Cole Heart

by K Webster 
Date: November 14, 2018 
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Dark Romance


I once was a hero. 
Until she kept me as her captive, tortured me, and killed my brothers. 
She bred a monster. 
Nothing could stop me from seeking revenge. 
But it was over so quickly—her easy death a mercy she didn’t deserve. 

 For a decade, the burning rage of what she did has transformed into something uncontrollable. 
Something I want to feed. 
Something I crave to unleash. 

 I want to make her pay. 
Over and over and over again. 

 Finding the evil, spoiled women sates my ravenous, vengeful soul. 
I hunt. 
I capture. 
I destroy. 
Slowly. So slowly. 
One, two, three, four, five… 
And now six. 

 I’m wicked and sadistic. 
I am Cold Cole Heart. 
My mission is death and their payment to me has come due. 

 Number six thinks she is different. 
Yet when I look at her, I see them. 
She will pay.
They always do.

{Blog Tour} Heath by K Webster and Nikki Ash

Heath

by K Webster and Nikki Ash 
Publication Date: October 25, 2018 
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Read for FREE in KindleUnlimited: 
Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon CA

A modern telling of a classic tale... This isn’t a typical love story. This is a story of what happens when love is so powerful and all-consuming that it has the ability to destroy everyone involved. It’s definitely not pretty and it’s certainly not a fairytale, but it’s their story and it couldn’t be told any other way.



Review

“This brutal cage of a body imprisons my soul

– a dark, heavy soul who only wants his other half.”
K Webster and Nikki Ash take readers on a wild ride, a roller coaster of emotions with Heath, a modern retelling of one of my favorite classics. Not a fairytale and definitely in no way a happily ever after, Heath is a complex book that will have your emotions all twisted around. One minute you will love a character, the next you will despise them. 

Heath, himself... Well, this is his story. His obsessive, revengeful love story. And Heath will stay with you long after you've read the last page. A truly memorable character. 

Filled with angst, drama and all the feels, Heath is epic. A dark romance full of obsession, insanity and sacrifice. 

Even days after finishing Heath I'm still wondering what in the world I read.. Webster and Ash blew my mind. Seriously.

{Blog Tour} Death by the River by Alexandrea Weis & Lucas Astor


Death by the River
Alexandrea Weis & Lucas Astor
Published by: Vesuvian Books
Publication date: October 2nd 2018
Genres: Horror, Young Adult

A high school “American Psycho.”

SOME TRUTHS ARE BETTER KEPT SECRET.
SOME SECRETS ARE BETTER OFF DEAD.

Along the banks of the Bogue Falaya River, sits the abandoned St. Francis Seminary. Beneath a canopy of oaks, blocked from prying eyes, the teens of St. Benedict High gather here on Fridays. The rest of the week belongs to school and family—but weekends belong to the river.
And the river belongs to Beau Devereaux.
    The only child of a powerful family, Beau can do no wrong. Handsome. Charming. Intelligent. The star quarterback of the football team. The “prince” of St. Benedict is the ultimate catch.
    He is also a psychopath.
    A dirty family secret buried for years, Beau’s evil grows unchecked. In the shadows of the ruined St. Francis Abbey, he commits unspeakable acts on his victims and ensures their silence with threats and intimidation. Senior year, Beau sets his sights on his girlfriend’s headstrong twin sister, Leslie, who hates him.        Everything he wants but cannot have, she will be his ultimate prize.
 As the victim toll mounts, it becomes crystal clear that someone has to stop Beau Devereaux.
 And that someone will pay with their life.

Review:
   As soon as I read the blurb for Death by the River I was intrigued. I wasn't sure what to entirely expect going in because both of these authors are new to me... But WOW! This writing duo blew my mind in unimaginable ways.
   Beau Devereaux is a psycho, but not someone you would imagine to be. He's Mister Popularity. The star of the football team, the son of a well known and powerful family, Beau has the looks and charms to succeed. Deep inside him though, his soul is black and there's this sinister evil lurking inside of him. His own parents can see it inside of him. When Beau is turned down by his girlfriend's sister, he sets out to get his revenge - and it's quite brutal. 
    Death by the River is told in alternate points of view that are structured and written well. The story itself had some surprising twists that I didn't see coming and THAT ending.. Well, I can't give it away, but it blew me away!! Twisted and dark, Death by the River is the perfect book to read if you want a psychological thriller that has grit, suspense and darkness. Heart-pounding and mind-blowing, this book was my favorite this Halloween season!!

Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Military, Romantic Suspense

This elite group of U.S. Marines are the last to leave a fight…or the women who steal their hearts. She’s trying to take back her life… Peyton Rhodes has lost everything. Three years ago, her family was violently murdered while she narrowly escaped. Now, she’s conquered her fears and is determined to wipe the slate clean. Her new beginning may be over before it starts when she is the only witness to a gruesome murder. He may as well be dead… Former U.S. Marine Ford Collier is back in the states after a perilous deployment without his team, his career, or the respect of his country. Secluded in the mountains of North Carolina, Ford doesn’t want anything to do with the murder in his backyard–or the pretty blonde artist who gets under his skin.

As dangerous complications arise–and passion heats up–it will take learning to trust again for Ford and Peyton to make it out alive.


Review

Traitor started off a bit slow for me and at one point I was thinking about putting it down,  but something told me to stick with it and I did. And I ended up loving it. Once I got into the book, it picked up becoming more fast paced and intriguing. 

Peyton and Ford are both broken souls, damaged in different ways but when they come together they each begin the healing process and while doing so begin to fall in love with one another. 

With so many twists and turns, Traitor is a hard book to put down - and I can't believe that I almost did! The ending came as a total surprise to me which is hard to do.

Angsty, suspenseful, and intriguing Traitor has it all.
