I\u2019ve trained for this. I know what to say, what to do, and how to act. I\u2019ve perfected the lethal calm required for this life.<\/p>\n<p>Now it\u2019s time to buy my first girl. But all it takes is one look at the brave girl who starts singing mid-auction for that calm to slip.<\/p>\n<p>Briar Chapman is going to be the death of me, and I don\u2019t care. I\u2019ll take every day with her until that death comes, and I\u2019ll welcome it when it does.<\/p>\n<p>On the outside, Lucas Holt is what nightmares are made of. A man cloaked in darkness, with sin-filled eyes and an enticing grin. A devil so devastatingly beautiful and cruel that his very presence instills fear.<\/p>\n<p>But beneath his terrifying, ever-calm exterior is an affectionate man haunted by a past that refuses to stay buried. And Lucas looks at me as though he\u2019s finally found the only person who can make it all go away.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re a battle of the brightest day and the darkest night\u2014and I want to lie in the wake of our war.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/31554530-blackbird\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14298\" src=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/10\/3821d-goodreads.jpg?resize=125%2C42\" alt=\"3821d-goodreads\" width=\"125\" height=\"42\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2mtekBt\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon US<\/a> | <a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2lZpFMi\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon UK<\/a> | <a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2mA5XTX\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon CA<\/a> | <a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2loiGc7\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon AU<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/apple.co\/2glRd9s\" target=\"_blank\">iBooks<\/a> | B&amp;N | <a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2msZI54\" target=\"_blank\">Kobo<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><a style=\"color: #339966;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mollysmcadams.com\/shop-books\" target=\"_blank\">Signed Paperback<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/02\/blackbird-teaser-8.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24967\" src=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/02\/blackbird-teaser-8.jpg?resize=474%2C474\" alt=\"blackbird-teaser-8\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/02\/excerpt5.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-24968\" src=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/02\/excerpt5.jpg?w=300&#038;resize=300%2C150\" alt=\"excerpt\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My head shook absentmindedly as I tried to comprehend all that he had told me.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing the man Lucas was behind the darkness, I couldn\u2019t grasp why he had ever fought to get into this life at all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d been wondering what had happened in your life to make you into the devil I saw so often at the beginning,\u201d I began, my voice soft . . . almost hesitant. \u201cBut now I wonder how you were able to remain you, instead of letting the devil completely consume you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t ever make the mistake of thinking that that part of me isn\u2019t there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI couldn\u2019t,\u201d I said honestly and huffed a small laugh. \u201cHe\u2019s always there . . . I see you fighting him all the time. Now, more than I have in a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He held my stare, and his dark eyes burned with something I couldn\u2019t define. \u201cYou\u2019re afraid of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I wished in that moment for my room so I could have something to hide behind, at least for a minute, because I knew I couldn\u2019t hide any of the emotions coursing through me, and I couldn\u2019t lie to him. \u201cYes,\u201d I whispered and hated that he seemed to not only expect my answer but accept it. Reaching out, I traced around the outer edge of his eye, thankful I wasn\u2019t shaking. \u201cI\u2019m afraid of the eyes I\u2019m looking into right now. I\u2019ve been afraid of them for a long time. I\u2019m afraid of what I know about you now, but I wonder if I haven\u2019t always known. If you haven\u2019t hinted at it before . . .\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBriar\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the things you see in your mind that force me to see these eyes? They\u2019ve been there this whole time. They were there when I fell in love with you, and I knew when I fell that they would always be there.\u201d I watched as he fought with whatever haunted him and lowered myself back onto the bed and curled against his side. \u201cThe darkest part of your soul can terrify me, but it won\u2019t cause me to leave.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He gripped my hand in his, and mumbled, \u201cSometimes I wish it would.\u201d Before I could react or respond, he continued. \u201cIf you think I\u2019m dangerous, maybe you understand what my life is like, and maybe you can grasp the danger in throwing out the rules for you. Eventually someone other than William will see what you mean to me. And with who we are and what we do, we all have so many enemies who\u2019ve been waiting for a chance to get back at us\u2014to hurt us.\u201d He raised our joined hands to kiss my wrist and let his lips linger on the skin there. \u201cWe don\u2019t have weaknesses, Briar, but you are mine. They\u2019ve been waiting for <em>you<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/01\/blackbird-teaser-4.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24643\" src=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/01\/blackbird-teaser-4.jpg?resize=474%2C474\" alt=\"blackbird-teaser-4\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/11\/about-the-author.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-24226\" src=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/11\/about-the-author.jpg?w=300&#038;resize=300%2C150\" alt=\"about-the-author\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/10\/molly-mcadams.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-23807\" src=\"https:\/\/loveaffairwithfiction.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/10\/molly-mcadams.jpg?w=138&#038;resize=138%2C300\" alt=\"molly-mcadams\" width=\"138\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband, daughter, and fur babies.

She has a weakness for crude-humored movies and fried pickles, and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm \u2026 or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados.
