Homicidal Innocence by V.J. Lee

What happens when your learned behavior is murder?�From a young age, I thought killing was normal.�Then I was taken away.�They tried to fix me.�They failed.��They thought changing my identity and giving me a fresh start in a new town would help.�They were wrong.�They tried to cast out the demons lurking within my mind.�It didn’t work.�The demons demand satisfaction, regardless of who must die.��Diamond Valley, the land of silicone and plastic, is now my hunting ground.�

I take the most beautiful of all, turning them into my trophies—like beautiful butterflies on display for eternity, encased in glass and metal.��The ones I don’t deem worthy are found in the most gruesome ways, for all to see what’s truly on the inside.��Everyone can and will perish in the most horrific ways if we deem it so—except for the most beautiful inside and out. Maya Archer will always be ours—mine and the demons within me.��Detective Cole Silverthorne has spent his entire career chasing me. He has no idea how close I truly am, or that he’s falling in love with what’s mine, which will never do.��Once a killer, always a killer.
