Hand of Revenge Series by Jessica Jude

Walker. I swore I’d never come back to Wesbourne. Two years ago, the world of luxury cars, designer wardrobes, and jetting off to Singapore for late-night dim sum faded into little more than my back story. I should have known better. My plan was slip in unnoticed, get what I need, and catch the first flight back to Oxford. No one needs to know I’m back. Especially not him. But nothing ever goes as planned... moreWalker. I swore I’d never come back to Wesbourne. Two years ago, the world of luxury cars, designer wardrobes, and jetting off to Singapore for late-night dim sum faded into little more than my back story. I should have known better. My plan was slip in unnoticed, get what I need, and catch the first flight back to Oxford. No one needs to know I’m back. Especially not him. But nothing ever goes as planned. Now, they all know I’m back—and they're pulling me into their tangled web of schemes once again. The worst part? I can feel myself slipping right into the trap I fought so hard to escape. And this time, my heart won’t survive. Heath. Walker Halifax shattered my heart two years ago when she disappeared without a word. Everyone witnessed my breakdown, but no one knows why she left—or why she hasn’t been back since. Now she's back in Wesbourne, and I'd be lying if I said it doesn’t affect me. I thought I could handle it—being around her again, seeing her bite her lip, catching the scent of that familiar shampoo …. But I’m realizing I’m not as strong as I thought. There’s a reason she left. And I need to remember exactly what it was. less

“What are you going to do when you find him? ”. I pause, unsure what my answer should be. But there’s only ever been one option. “Kill him,” I say. Slate. Life’s taught me not to expect much. Handouts, fair treatment, a decent parking spot downtown. But dead last on that list? Lux Colombia-Clarke showing up at my door, looking like a damn fairytale with a score to settle... more“What are you going to do when you find him? ”. I pause, unsure what my answer should be. But there’s only ever been one option. “Kill him,” I say. Slate. Life’s taught me not to expect much. Handouts, fair treatment, a decent parking spot downtown. But dead last on that list? Lux Colombia-Clarke showing up at my door, looking like a damn fairytale with a score to settle. Her proposal knocks me sideways: find the city’s most dangerous drug dealer, and she’ll make sure my sister gets what she needs. I’d be an idiot to refuse, but every time her eyes cut my way, something dark and electric stirs in me. She’s trouble wrapped in silk, and I’d be wise to stay clear. Good thing no one ever accused me of being wise. Lux. Trust me, I can think of better things to do than begging a prime-parking-spot-stealing jerk for help. Like, a million better things. But this leather-clad biker may be the only way to help my brother. If I can endure the boulder-sized attitude he’s carrying around. We had a deal. One that didn’t include feeling … safe. Protected. Happy. Like, wtf? In no universe do we make sense together. He looks as out of place in a tuxedo as I do in anything other than vintage Chanel. But when we’re together, it’s like none of that matters. Until, of course, it does. And then nothing will stand in the way of our epic mutual destruction. Queen of Vengeance is book 2 in the Hand of Revenge series. It is not necessary to read book 1, Ace of Betrayal, but it will enhance the reading experience.

Rhett. Being a rockstar has been the dream since the first time I picked up a guitar. The fame, the lights, the rush of playing sold-out concerts. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted.
