Darkness Ever After (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736672839)

My name is Catalina Rose Payton, and I hope this isn't the ending to my storybook romance. It started when I met Gavin Scott on my 21st birthday. Undying love led me to ride with him down a very dark and twisting road filled with drugs, violence, and finally murder. Heartbroken, I was chased away from Settlement Island by my demons, reaching the warm sands of Los Angeles, my sanctuary, where my life was reborn again. I happily gave up on love because it had given up on me.

Here's the thing about fleeing; you can run until there is no earth left and hide where you think no one will ever find you. However, eventually, the light will fade, eclipsing you in darkness.

That darkness has now devoured me, pulling me back into its grasp.

Gary Porter, Robert Porter's father, has been released from prison, unleashing a resurgence of vendettas and revenge as he hunts the person who framed him for a murder he claims he didn't commit. Settlement Island is a battlefield, Gavin has disappeared, and I'm too broken to go back. I've already killed one man; how many more people will have to die by my hands until there is peace? What will I have to sacrifice this time to keep me from being consumed by darkness forever?
