James is a serial killer, William is his therapist. At the beginning, anyhow. As James finds out more about William, things that contradict his morals, can he still find it within himself to love him anyway? And will William protect James, even at the cost of himself?
Sounds uber pretentious lmao. This is my actual proper book, the one I have an editor for. TW's: strangulation, murder, body burying, mentions of rape, gay sex. I apologise in advance.
Book doesn't have a name yet, clearly, and Rami is the cover because he's who I imagine James to be. (Honestly if you're here you probably came from my tumblr so you know how to hit me up if you have any q's.)
A criminal mastermind makes a bold move against a wealthy client to put himself in a position to retire in comfort. He has no idea what he's up against when a young widow, desperate to make ends meet, sets her eyes on earning the bounty set on his head.

Newly widowed housewife Melody Scott needs to earn some major cash, fast. When her bright and busy children learn that a priceless ruby bracelet has been stolen and a six-figure reward is being offered, they convince her to try to do what the police, museum security, and the best private investigators have failed to do. Working against them is a notorious thief who has met people from around the world, but who has never once encountered a woman like Melody Scott. When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family.
The Widow, Melody Scott is a 2021 Watty Award Winner!
