Detective Rita Rawlins got the ten-sixty-five call "Armed Robbery in Progress." Rita arrived at the Riverside Savings and Loan to find the security guard killed. It quickly became less about a robbery and more about a precision hit with zero clues. Except one of the bullets is laced with poison.
When Rita falls in love with the number one suspect, she struggles to keep the separation needed to solve the case and make an arrest.
Haunted by the death of Tony, her partner, Rita is suspended from the force. She has never been the kind of cop who leaves the job behind. She wants back in.
When her brother goes missing, Rita has no choice but to ask the suspected killer for help. Along the way, the two forge a fragile trust, but this new partnership is put to the test when the case takes an unexpected and dangerous turn.
Riverside's Perfect Murder brings these two powerful people together in a riveting story that unfolds with furious momentum.

THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS by toxic_sweetie

+++✦+++ Suddenly, he shoved me against the refrigerator, his hand gripping my neck while the other pressed against the fridge beside my head. My lips parted slightly in shock as I met his gaze. "Don't toy with me, kitten." He whispered, a sly smile playing on his lips. "If I find out you're lying, there's a good chance I might have to kill you." His eyes flicked down to my lips and back up, the threat hanging heavy in the air. I realized he wasn't trying to strangle me, but the danger was unmistakable. "And if you try to leave town before I recover, I will find you wherever you are." His voice was a chilling blend of bluntness and eerie calm. "Do you understand?" His gaze bore into mine. "Why don't you just kill me right now?" I ventured, pushing my luck. A pleased look crossed his face as he released his grip on my neck. +++✦+++ In a city plagued by crime and violence, a young aspiring nurse fights to stay hidden from her sadistic stepfather and his ruthless gang.

V is for Violet (COMPLETE) by Bailey-Elizabeth

-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. She's learned the criminal underground inside and out while masquerading as a quiet art student, bringing her closer and closer to her target. 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. But when a girl with purple hair murders the Family's prized hitman, he's given the responsibility of what to do with her. 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
