Publisher Description
At the edge of a cliff, in the pouring rain, the man I once loved attacks me. His fingers tear at my flesh, his breath hot in my ear as he spews venomous words of hate and promises of death.
My only hope is Scythe. The psychopath locked away inside the mind of another. Letting him out will only cause chaos and violence. And yet, I utter his name and free him to save myself.
Scythe is nothing like Vincent. He’s dark. Sarcastic. Sexy. The things he makes me do are wickedly sinful.
But secret.
Nash and War don’t know what I’ve done. If they knew Scythe’s true identity and the crimes he’s committed, they’d kill him in a heartbeat.
I can’t let that happen. The empire I’m building can’t crumble.
Not when I need it to save my family from the streets. Not when half the battle is keeping my head while my heart is split between three men.
Not when the real killer is still out there, ready to ruin it all.

More Saint View Greatness Superbly Told!
Elle Thorpe continues to blow me away with another amazing “Saint View Psychos” novel and this one picks up where the first book, “Start A War” ends and what an ending that was. Bliss thought she was meeting someone for a business deal, instead it was her wicked ex and he was about to cause her a boat load of pain. Vincent had followed her but was not listening to her pleas for help, so Bliss does the only thing she could do and summons Scythe and he springs into action. Now that Scythe is out to play, he is here to stay, but Bliss does not let Nash or War know about him and they continue to think he is just Vincent. Wow, we knew Vincent had a killer dark side, but he is also a lover and he has his eyes not only on Bliss but War, too. War continues to deal with club business, while Bliss is trying to make her club the best it could be, she has some family drama going on and so does Scythe, his mother is trying to prevent Vincent from resurfacing and knows what Scythe needs to do. But he knew that once his secret was out, he would lose the ones he really wants and nothing else will really matter. This captivating and fast-paced story has plenty of drama, action, twists and turns, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions and steamy romance. Elle Thorpe, thank you for another amazing story and wild ride, and that ending holy moly, how will he get out of that one and what is going on with Bliss’s place? I am looking forward to find out.
🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, Gregory Salinas and Michelle Price’s outstanding performance continues as they bring these characters and their story to life. Their character voices have been consistent and the quality of the audio has been top notch. I love how they take each role and make it their own, sounding believable and just as I picture the characters to sound. Salinas continues to kill it as Vincent’s other side, as the perfect psychotic and is just as great as War and Nash, Price’s Bliss is just as amazing too. Both were great performing the roles of the secondary characters as well. You could hear how much heart they put into their work as they capture all the character’s emotions and project them into their performance. These versatile voice artiest are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another exceptional listen.
