The Roots That Bleed

Danger.

There are dangerous things happening in Silverbrook. I can feel them in my bones. I can see them on the faces of my brother’s crew when they march out onto the streets with tension etched into their shoulders. I can hear them in their voices when they tell me not to worry.

As the sister of the leader of the local street gang, I'm supposed to be acquainted with danger by now. I've felt it my whole life, like a lurker standing behind my window in the night. Watching me but never coming in. Getting to know me without me ever looking it in the eye.

Still, I never thought I'd actually feel it on my own skin.

But when my brother makes a mistake so grave that there's no going back, my whole world turns upside down. I must learn to dive into the deep right away when monsters grip at my ankles and pull me down.

I’ve been given away to them by my brother like a bargaining chip.

Three men—Irvin, Aaron, and Snake—take me as their own. Into their arms, into their mansion, into their wicked lives.

They shatter everything I've ever known. And I realize that everything might not have been what it even seemed.

Because together with them, other dangers come. Ones, which I'm not sure I'm ready for.

Street gang meets royalty in a dark romance setting full of twists and turns. There wasn't even a fight, but there sure is a war. On which side will Lorelei Reily stand? Unless there are more than two to choose from... What will she do, then?
