Blurb:
A life for a life … will kill the both of us in the end.
Clover
I know nothing of the Sickness at Eastpoint University. I know only the backroads that slip past the southern beaches and the gators that make their way onto the swamps shores. Until him. Until the killer known as Braxton Smalls finds his way into my stilted trailer on the coast of Port Charlotte.
He came looking for Ace, but he found me instead…
Braxton
I’m a monster. Always have been. Always will be. The only people I’ve ever given a shit about are my boys and their girls. No one hurts my family, and knowing that someone has … and that they’ve gotten away with it plagues me.
Ace Volkov will pay for what he put Avalon through and if I have to use his most precious weakness to draw him out, I will.
She thinks she can bargain for his life with her own, but I mean to show her that there’s nothing I won’t do to see my vengeance through to the end.
Bloody Cruel Monster August 26, 2022 🤞
Bloody Cruel Psycho is the fifth book in the Sick Boys series and the first book of Braxton's story. Yes, you read that right. Braxton is such a handful that he needed two books to get all his yummy goodness out. You don't HAVE to read the first books to follow along but I definitely suggest it. It gives you the backstory of why Braxton is doing the things he is. And they are freaking amazing books. This whole series has just been a work of art by Lucy.
All my life I have waded through rivers of blood. Kill or be killed. Betray or be betrayed.
If you have read the other books in this series then you already know that Brax is damaged. All of the sick boys are. Brax takes the cake in the darkness though. Probably why he is my favorite. I love an emotionally damaged bad boy. Also if you've read the rest, you will know that Brax is on the hunt for Ace. For revenge. He needs it. It's consumed him. When Ace disappears and the trail has gone cold, Brax finds another stone to overturn. A way to bring Ace out of hiding. Clover.
I was hoping he'd want what no one else ever has. Me.
Clover. Oh Clover. The leaves of a four leaf clover are said to stand for faith, hope, love and luck. Clover hasn't had very much luck in her life and not a lot of love either. Maybe that's why the few that she does love, she will do anything to protect. Like Ace. When Braxton tracks her down looking for Ace, Clover sacrifices herself instead. She has faith in Braxton that he will take her, use her and end his hunt for Ace. She has hope to one day be more than a means to an end. Little Clover has her own darkness inside though. A side so dark she tries to separate herself from it. Hide it away. Keep the promise she made.
Braxton and Clover together are explosive. These two are so twisted up inside I don't know how they make it through some days. Their stories individually are sad, dark and demented. Their interactions are harsh, cruel at times. Their story together though, it's one of beauty. We only have half the story here and already you can see how they are going to be able to heal each other. The chemistry and connection is undeniable. Holy hell the chemistry. When these two get together sexually, hell it literally had me bouncing in my seat. Lucy Smoke has a way of making you want things you never knew you needed in your life.
No one can hide from the monsters that lurk in the dark, and I have never been more grateful to be the monster they should fear.
I will end them.
Then we have that ending. Ahhh that ending. I'm dying here. I need to know all the things and I need to know them now. I just can't even tell you guys how much I love this book.
