Dark Mercies
!!!!THIS IS AN INCOMPLETE STORY WITH A WORKING TITLE!!!! WARNING: This is a super dark and fucked up book. I cannot stress this enough. This isn't my usual stuff. It contains attempted murder, full murder, torture, heavy possessiveness, violence (heavy on the violence), guns, talks of murder and crimes and crime families. There are mentions of abuse and sexual abuse and animal cruelty. While some of these you won't see, they will be mentioned and the effects of them will be discussed. Please read the above and take is seriously. PREMISE: A Canadian woman, while on a trip to Italy, witnesses a murder completed by a Mafia family. She makes an odd request that is granted. One Italian sunset, one sunrise, and a quick death. However it does not go the way it is supposed to. She survives and to protect the family, her attempted murderer, a very openly psychopath man, marries her to prevent her from being able to talk to the police. The book, when completed will follow how she adapts to this marriage and how they come to an agreement as she works through her trauma from her own childhood being raised by a psychopathic father while being married to an unrepentant killer. And while her husband realizes that his form of control isn't the ONLY way of control and that sometimes, giving up control can be a good thing and sometimes being unable to feel most emotions doesn't mean that they still can't be there in some form.
