MARKED SERIES
The day Maya Owens walked into his tattoo shop, everything Talan knew changed.
After officially starting a relationship, he’s now having trouble managing Maya—a woman who consumes every part of his being—and his own heart. His need to control everything, including her, is driving Maya insane, but he has good reason. After all, Janice is still lurking, and she has a vendetta against his Bitty.
In no time Talan wants more, and it’s faster than Maya can handle. Things begin to get complicated; months of frustration and want take them for a ride neither wanted, but now yearn for.
Will they make it through the turbulence? And if so, at what cost?
Abandoned.
Thrown away.
Invisible.
Every single one of those could be used to describe me. They can tell you my story—my sad past—without a single syllable passing through my lips.
I hate them—those who lied to me. They claimed to love me, but in reality they used me when convenient. My parents. Sister. And now Talan. Loving them has left me empty.
Sad.
Alone.
Not anymore. Screw them. My love has turned to anger…hate. Now, what consumes me is the urge to destroy, to force them to see what they wrecked with their carelessness. My name will never be forgotten. Not after I have my revenge.
His tears will be my ultimate retribution.
“With everything I am. I’ll always be by your side.”
It was his truth.
A vow Talan made to the woman who owned him. Because that is what Maya did to him; she held his entire life in her hands. He lived for her smile…her happiness, and now someone has dimmed that light in her eyes with their malice.
His love for his Bitty has taken him past the breaking point, and he’s determined to make those that hurt her—pay. Blood. He wanted his hands on those that wronged—almost took her away from him.
Because if one thing was certain, it was that he breathed for her. It was her warmth and love that gave him a home—a purpose and desire for more, but now that had been threatened. Maya was in pain, and that for him was unbearable.
It was his fault. A fault that he would right no matter what he had to go through.
How does a man so completely in love with his female react to seeing her in a hospital bed and broken?
He fights. Goes against all logic and seeks vengeance.
