Day Three


L. Wilder - 2019
    Wilder brings readers Jasper Nichols, a sexy, totally alpha hitman, who will hold you captive in this new bad boy series. Our lives are defined by moments, especially the ones we never see coming. For me, that moment came when I was given the opportunity to take from those who'd taken from me.  I became a hitman- killing mob bosses, drug lords and everything in between. With judges in their pockets, these men were untouchable by everyone--except me. With every hit, my plan was always the same: Day one- receive the target.Day two- acquire their location.Day three- plan the kill. Day four- complete the hit.  On day three of my latest assignment, everything changed. The moment I saw her, I knew she was different from the others. Madison Brooks wasn't a hardened criminal with blood on her hands. She was innocent, untouched by my world, and undeniably beautiful.  On day three, I couldn't get her out of my head. I kept imagining what it would be like to hold her, touch her, and claim her as mine. On day three, I found myself questioning whether or not I could complete my assignment. In fact, I found myself questioning everything.   Many readers were introduced to the sexy, brooding recluse, Jasper Nichols, in Murphy: Satan's Fury- Memphis. Day Three is a new standalone romance novel with no cheating, lots of wild twists and turns, and a swoon-worthy HEA with no cliffhanger.
