THE BEAST OF MAPLE HOLLOW
Fluturașul Meu Frânt
Gracie didn't run to Maple Hollow to find a monster. She ran to find a home.
Seventeen, with a suitcase full of dreams and nowhere else to go, Gracie ends up under the Whispering Oak - the tree that holds every secret this town has ever buried.
That's where she meets him.
Elliot Grey.
The youngest of four. St. Clair grad. Class of 2020. The boy who came home right before the world shut down to take over his family's business.
To Maple Hollow, he's just Elliot.
To the underground, he's BEAST.
Kade is the heir. Johnboy is military. Maryann Rae is in France pretending she doesn't miss home. And Knox? Knox is 28 and in Romania, and even he answers to BEAST.
And now BEAST has a broken butterfly. Fluturașul meu frânt.
She sings about being a gangster's wife in his kitchen like it's just a song. She wears his shirts. She stands barefoot under his oak and thinks she's still free.
She has no idea he heard every word.
"You think this is a song, puiul meu? You're standing in a gangster's kitchen, in a gangster's shirt, singing for your gangster."
He was supposed to let her leave.
Now he's going to make sure she never wants to.
