Alyssa Roebach was excited to stand by her best friend, Brynne, as she took on her new role as the head of the Bianchi family. However, Alyssa didn’t expect to encounter a dark-haired mafia enforcer who immediately tried to break down her defenses. As a child of divorce, Alyssa has always avoided commitment. She’s determined not to fall for a man who could hurt her or get involved in anything resembling a relationship to the outside eye. But it seems like she won’t have a choice in the matter.

Dante Ricci, a man of strength and resilience, is instantly captivated by Alyssa. He’s prepared to embark on the most demanding mission of his life: to win her heart. Having experienced the pain of loss firsthand, Dante lives each day to its fullest. However, his pursuit of Alyssa proves to be more challenging than he initially anticipated. Yet, he remains steadfast in his belief that he’s the right man for the task and refuses to give up. As resolute as Alyssa is in her attempts to repel him, Dante is equally determined to make her his.

Brynne:

I'm in debt up to my eyeballs. School has drained everything, including part of my soul. Now that I've graduated, the economy has turned and there aren't enough jobs available. I have to figure something out before I drown. My friend Alyssa may have been joking about going on television for a fast cash infusion, but it's starting to look like a viable option. A new season of Stranded is looking for next season's contestants and the pay is more than fair, even if I don't make it to the end. Sending my submission off will be easy. I probably won't be chosen because I've never so much as camped in my life, but my father was a survivalist. There must be some of his tenacity in my veins, right?

Slate:

I'm so off-grid even my past can't find me. That's the way I plan to remain. Until the end. No more high-brow, heavily guarded lunches, meetings that drone on into the wee hours of the morning or dealing with people. That was, until today. I stumbled upon a brunette bombshell practically in my backyard. A backyard I paid a fortune to keep empty. Winter has only just begun. As I watch her, I assess that she's not going to make it. She knows nothing. She's going to die out here. For some damned reason, I can't let her.Captor and captive begin a battle of wills during one of the worst winters on record in the Pacific Northwest.

Someone's killing in Crows Hollow again. And it's not Neo Wade nor his deranged, stupid girl, Lyla Morris.

Both have been called back, lured by the scent of blood to the town where it all began for them nearly two years prior. And while they don't know who is killing blonde women fresh from prison sentences, they're determined to find out.

Because not only has the copycat deviated from the Bombshell Butcher's M.O., but they've made a mockery of the hard work Neo did all those years ago as he cleaned scum from the streets of Crows Hollow.

Immerse yourself back into the unhinged world of Neo and Lyla as they go undercover to figure out who is dropping bodies in their old stomping grounds. But heed my warning, it's not what you think.

It never is with the insane, in any case.

Miles: Taking over Dad's spot had been easy enough, but I was raised amongst the snakes. I was taught to survive and hold my own. Always doing what's right. I am the son of Sebastian Barot, Quiver leader, and alpha to a pack so vile that we operate in utter darkness. Where the law can't touch us. Taking down elitist scum like Carter Williams is what we do in our sleep while our venom regenerates. That is when we're all behaving and focused.

Brax: I was told to watch him. This ensures we have time to execute the plan to take down the company he runs. The one that haphazardly killed our father and leader. It's all hands on deck with this job, but that was until I saw her. Miles is pissed. But it's already done. But from how he's eyeing her from across the pool, I'd say he feels the same way I do. Which is about to come to a fucking head. And two Cobras shouldn't square off.

Aella: My name means whirlwind or tempest, but I'm far from it. I've been promised to my fiancé, Carter, since middle school. Our families are both prominent, and we must carry on the bloodlines. I adore him, don't get me wrong. But something is lacking. Something I don't think I'll ever get to touch in my time on this earth. But I'm wrong. Fire comes into my life in the form of two brothers, one so dangerous I might as well let it burn itself out.

Lyla and Neo have reached a critical point in their relationship and in dealing with their shared trauma. Neo is struggling due to a case that hits too close to home, while Lyla is beginning to find some of the sanity she had before Neo Wade turned her world upside down. They share a strong bond through blood and a common desire for revenge, but will their connection endure the challenges of murder and marriage? Discover the answers in the thrilling final installment of the Butcher of Crows Hollow Series.
