Nature or Nurture

The Kindly Evil Series must be read in order. Book 3 of 4.

They thought the past was buried. But some scars are passed down.

Ten years have passed since Mia took her son, Sam, and disappeared. She said she was protecting him—from his father, from Jason Greco’s darkness, from the monster she believed he carried in his blood.

But now Mia has returned to Brooklyn. And she’s brought Sam back with her.

Jason hasn’t seen his son in a decade. He’s built a new life with Ellie, remarried, and raised a second son, Anthony, in a home filled with love, peace, and purpose. But the moment he sees Sam again, everything begins to unravel.

Sam is distant. Angry. Emotionless. There’s a quiet rage behind his eyes—a reflection of a man Jason used to be. A man he prays his son never becomes.

Old wounds reopen as Jason and Ellie try to reintegrate Sam into their lives. And with them comes an even darker truth: Mia didn’t just keep Sam hidden—she twisted him into something unnatural. Her obsession, her control, and the blurred lines of their relationship threaten to shatter everything Jason has rebuilt.

Now Jason must confront the question that haunts every corner of his soul: Is violence something inherited or something learned?

Nature or Nurture is the third installment in the gripping Kindly Evil Series—a dark psychological romance that peels back the layers of love, trauma, and generational damage. With haunting intimacy and shocking revelations, this chapter explores the brutal cost of legacy and what happens when the past refuses to die.

Some monsters are born. Others are made. And some are raised by people who claim to love them.

Warning! Book 3 is not for the faint of heart.

The Kindly Evil Series contains graphic scenes and dark themes that may be triggering to some.
