Publisher Description
He’s the devil. And she’s his wicked game.
Book two in the Hollow's Row series.
Halen
The night I gave in to Kallum Locke, I sold my soul to the devil. Now that devil has returned for me, a daemon siphoning off what soul I have left.
The Harbinger killer has descended on Hollow’s Row amid an active case, where I’ve been hired as a consultant to profile two killers. One offering gruesome sacrifices to obtain an ancient philosophy, and the other a bad omen from my past.
A dark truth hovers at the edge of my memories—but is it real, or a trick by the chaos magician himself, meant to trap me in his web of lies and corruption.
Kallum is too consuming, his clashing green-and-blue eyes staring into my depths, demanding I feel the frenzy he teased from my soul.
I have to escape him.
Kallum
I’ve tasted Halen St. James, my muse of heartbreak. I’ve sank my teeth into her tender flesh, lapped at her tears, marked her as mine…
So I’ll be damned if I let her go now. Not this time—not when I’m so close to revealing our truth. It’s easy to be tricked when you believe your own lies. And, oh, how my little Halen loves her pretty lies.
She’s obsessed with naming me the killer. She’s afraid of me, but I’m not the danger she should fear.
The moth is attracted to sweetness—and my little Halen is the sweetest damn thing.
Halen needs her big bad villain to protect her.

Duet performance rocks
Two expert consultants work together to continue studying the esoteric crimes of a ritualistic killer. Kallum is the answer to the mystery behind the recent local killings. Now that Kallum’s had a taste of his muse he’s never letting Halen go.
…
Kallum and Halen are an intoxicating pairing. Measuring good and evil. The scholarly works between them is an ideal match. The monster inside Kalimantan feeds off her pain. He’s a villain in the devil’s form providing protection for his muse.

This was an informative read about philosophy. I can think of no better profession for Kallum as a professor on theories. His academia is outstanding and the fact that Trisha Wolfe studied multiple theorists is greatly appreciated. The sexual tension between them is thick with blood lust and violence.
…
Sebastian York is Kallum and Lucy Rivers is Halen. A fantastic duet. Sebastian York is the epitome of masculinity in the form of a sexy voice. He truly knows how to bring characters to life. The animalistic hunger of Kallum’s desire is carnal lust. Lucy Rivers is the sexy version of Halen.
…
Trisha Wolfe creates the most intoxicating word salad that is a dark madness of sinister pleasure. There’s more sex scenes. The shocking revelations will blow your mind and send you sideways. Trisha Wolfe writes an intellectual psychological dark thriller that digs into the ritualistic crime scene of Hollow’s Row. I’m blown away by the smart writing of Trisha Wolfe. Kallum’s character is very realistic he’s so believable. I’m not savvy or knowledgeable on philosophy, yet I trust in the research she put into writing this story. Trisha Wolfe carefully crafts an intoxicating romance where readers are distracted by the job they came to work together. It’s not like a typical job of investigating it’s so much more. This is poetry in motion. Its smooth lyric defined on the pages of a song. The wordsmith is buttery sweet with a hint of dark desire in tragedy. If you don’t already have a dark soul you will after getting a taste of this.
So good…
Where is the third book!? I’m antsy now and want more! This series is fantastic- so many things to enjoy. If you’re a student of psychology or philosophy this will knock your socks off!
