Book Synopsis



DELUXE EDITION--featuring beautiful dark red sprayed edges!

Welcome to the dark world of The Hunted Kingdom where the daughters of modern-day mob families are reimagined fairy tale princesses like you've never seen before. In Huntsman, family is power... and power is everything.

Nine years ago, my aunt took everything from me.

My world. My throne. My mother.

I've bided my time since then, serving under her in the Mwuaji crime family, but she's crossed another line. She put a price on my head, sending the legendary assassin the Huntsman, Malachi Bowden, after me.

The Huntsman's never failed a contract before, but I know everything there is to know about him. It's finally time for me to take my revenge and finish the war my aunt started.

The Huntsman might be my death. But Malachi Bowden?

He's my weakness.

DNF. The writing was awful, I really tried to finish it but closed it after 180 pages. Agreed with the review below, the MFC was cringey. The story had potential but overall sucked.

I did not finish this book. Got about 100 pages and I could not power through. The story line was bland and the characters just didn't connect. The FMC's role was cringey. The author tries to make her sound like a bad @** but it just didn't mesh for me. Just not for me. Again, just my opinion. It doesn't have a nice cover though and red edges around the book!
