FINISHED AND COMPLEATED She swore it would never happen again. But monsters don't care about promises. He's cold, cruel, and impossibly beautiful. A twisted blend of tenderness and torment. One moment, he's biting her lip and calling her his canvas. The next, he's running her a bath with rose petals and chocolate. She hates him. She aches for him. And she can't stop going back. This isn't love. It's obsession. It's bruises hidden under bunny-hoodie sleeves. It's blood in the bathwater and whispers in the dark. He's not human-and maybe she isn't either anymore.

When private investigator Tom Hart flies back to Brooklyn for the first time in a decade, it's supposed to be for one thing: to bury his oldest friend, Jimmy Grillo. The cops call it a mugging gone wrong; a random act of violence on a quiet Bensonhurst street. But Jimmy's wife, Ann, thinks otherwise. She believes Jimmy's death has ties to Carmine Perro, a local bookie and loan shark Jimmy owed money to. As Tom digs deeper, old neighborhood ties pull him into a dangerous web of secrets, lies, and betrayal. Everyone has something to hide; Jimmy's gambling debts, Ann's complicated marriage, even the cop investigating the case.

My first ever novel completed. Each chapter reads like a stand-alone episode, so you can jump in anytime. A slightly older coming-of-age story set in 1980's Brooklyn. Gerry is a 24-year-old AT&T employee stuck in an entry-level job, trying to make sense of his work, his neighborhood, and his dreams; while juggling friendship, loyalty, and love. There's Mary, the girl who might just be his future. And Audrey, the girl who could crush his world with a kiss and a promise. Loud, funny, and unpredictable, this is a story about friendship, chasing the future, and the kind of love that doesn't always play fair. All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.
