    About this ebook

    Love shouldn't hurt. Love shouldn't come at night with a knife.

    Two years after she was almost killed by her abusive boyfriend, Bree Elliott still struggles to move on, alcohol and sleeping pills her only support. She meets her soulmate, in a most unexpected way, when she's taken hostage by Roarke in a bank robbery that goes to hell.

    Ruthless hitman Roarke Brennan thought he had everything under control, but when a mysterious girl catches his attention, and a bullet nearly ends his life, he sets out on a chaotic path to destruction. Bree took everything from him. It's time to return the favor.

    Mortem is a PITCH BLACK romance that takes you to the deepest pits of obsession and passion.

    Warnings for abuse, mentions of horrible assaults, blood play, dark themes and a descent into mad obsession. This book skirts the Russo Saga universe but it's a standalone with its very own version of HEA. Suitable for an adult audience, read at your own discretion.

     

    *Intended for an 18+ audience*

    Nicolina Martin

    Nicolina Martin is a Swedish author whose passion for the written word began during her teenage years. While she is deeply influenced by Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, Jodi Picoult, and many more, she doesn’t limit herself to just one genre, and dabbles in dark, steamy romance, suspense, erotica shorts, and contemporary fiction. Nicolina enjoys singing, practicing martial arts, and gardening. She is also a music enthusiast, movie fanatic, and bibliophile. Above all, she loves spending quality time with her three beautiful daughters and three feline fur-babies. To Nicolina, life is far too short for regrets, and she is a firm believer in looking forward no matter what to avoid repeating past mistakes. She also believes in thoroughly enjoying each and every moment as it comes because tomorrow is never guaranteed.

      York, October 1644 Before I’ve even mustered the courage to knock, the door to the townhouse flings open. I drop my hand. “It is me, John Falmouth,” I say and wince at how loud my voice carries into the night. My greeting falters when I look up and n
