My prison pen pal got the electric chair.
So how can he sext me from the grave?

Prey

I see dead people, and not just the men I murdered.

I'm in danger of being committed because I can’t tell what’s real from my hallucinations.

Everyone thinks I’m crazy when the serial killer I jilted starts haunting my house.

He assassinates any man who shows me interest, leaving their body parts under my pillow.

During the day, his gaslighting destroys my peace of mind.

But at night, he invades my nightmares and makes me crave the depravity.

Predator

She ghosted me at the altar. Now, I’m aching for revenge.

I want to break her, piece by delicious piece. Revel in her terror. Bathe in her screams. Make her moan my name.

Someone from her past wants her captured or dead, so it’s up to me to protect her from the shadows.

She belongs to me and no one else—body, mind, and soul.

If I don’t take out her enemies, I’ll lose more than just my beautiful obsession.

I Will Break You is a dark psychological thriller romance with unreliable narrators, and disturbing themes. It ends on a cliffhanger. Please check the two pages of trigger warnings.

This book was recommended multiple times to one of the Facebook groups I am in. I then saw a video where they talked about the thigh bone and I was like hold up what are we doing with that honey? 

Read the trigger warnings first. Don't skip them. I learned a lot of new words I had never heard before. Also, we are left with a cliffhanger. 

We are introduced to Amethyst who by the way has a lovely name. She sees dead folks, alright got it. But then she decides to friend an inmate and they end up falling in love. You would think that would be the end, but far from it! It seems Xero is famous and so handsome that women just try to connect with him. Amethyst was the only one he picked and it is because she confessed to him her deep secret and did some things to the letter sent. 

We go back and forth between them and then it happens. It is his time to be executed and that is when the "fun" starts. Amethyst sees dead people so it is to be expected she would see Xero, but it is not just seeing him. Things are happening with his ghost. I felt bad for Amethyst because like it was really playing with her mind and I couldn't get behind that. 

As time went on (which takes a LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG time) to get to it, it felt like. The thigh bone scene was alright, but I will say the one scene that will also stick in my mind is the human centipede. Like when I tell you that scene will never leave my mind I promise you it won't. 

In the end, it truly felt like a love/hate relationship and that is how our story goes through the whole story with sex and BDSM parts thrown in. Will I read book two? Possibly, but it isn't going to be anytime soon.
