2016 WATTY AWARD WINNING CHEATER, FAKER, TROUBLEMAKER SEQUEL Written by Jenny Rosen & Kristen Maglonzo For rehabilitated bad boy, Elias King, falling in love again means losing everything--including his life. When a ghost from his past tears him away from the good girl he gave his heart to, it stops beating--literally. Seconds after he flat lines from an intentional overdose, the doctors bring him back into a world without her. Half a year and a life saving mistake later, he's got a second chance to go after the girl who got away, and he's willing to do just about anything to find her. After publishing a series of unsent love letters to the elusive Alex Summers, an unexpected rise to fame sends Elias back to Hollywood where him and Alex's story began. But time and tragedy change everything, and Alex has changed too. Now a freshman in college with a brand new boyfriend to boot, she's hoping to start life over without succumbing to memories of the loves she's lost in the past. But for Elias, old habits die hard, and when he pops out of the woodwork ready to take her back, she's determined to resist. But Kings don't back down easy, and when it comes Elias, trouble never looked so good.

-COMPLETE original version PLUS first half of new version!- "I don't know what to do," I admitted for the first time to both her and myself. "I don't know how to maintain this without fucking something up. I don't know how to keep spending time with you without setting a bad example or slipping up in front of my Family." Violet sat up and turned to face me. "I can't answer that for you," she said with a sad smile. "But I can go. I can make this easier, stay out of your way for a while." She stood on her knees between my legs, close, but not touching, and watched me with those wide, ocean eyes. I should have told her to go- listened to her suggestion and put some real distance between us. It would have been smarter, safer. But it would feel like cutting off my own hands. "I don't want that," I murmured, and reached for her waist. (excerpt from new version) --- Vengeance. Vendetta. Violence. These three words are all Violet Harcourt knows. For years, her world has been centered around killing Bill Pfeiffer, the hitman who murdered her father and sister.

Now, it's time to blow her cover, and Bill Pfeiffer's brains out. Vitale Fierro lives a carefree life at the top of the Salvaggi Mafia. Business has been good, and Chicago isn't a bad place to call home when you're a professional criminal.

To kill, or not to kill seems to be the ultimate question- one he must answer while managing a promotion, taking down a rival Family, and trying not to fall in love. Book 1 of the Rough Love Novels
