Release Blast for BRIDGES BURNED by Marie James

 Release Date: February 2


I didn’t swear vengeance on the Severino Family after Ellie’s death. I was only a child after all.

 

I didn’t swear vengeance when my father, a coward who wasn’t man enough to seek justice for her, drank himself into a divorce.

 

Going after them would be a death sentence.

 

I chose to live my life in the shadows, seeking revenge for others.

 

That was until I ran into the very man that took Ellie’s life.

 

I can still smell the smoke clinging to my skin from all the bridges I burned because of that man.

 

Walking away was no longer an option.

 

Killing him would be easy, but taking the woman that was promised to him seemed like a better wager.

 

Exacting retribution through her was the gamble I made.

 

Surviving her now seems impossible.

Wow! This was another dark and twisty tale. Loved the characters the good and bad ones the bad ones ride on the coat tales of the devil himself and it's only a matter of time before justice will be served .

The story was heart breaking and emotional for both characters both of the past and present which was tragic and fate has put one another in each other's path for a reason. Is it as a savior or for revenge time with tell.

Loved Madeline in the fact how she tried to remain so brave through all she had endured for the last several years. Mads was a realist and knew what life had in store for her even knowing that her spark of rebellion and fight was never stamped out but, remained a flicking flame.

Hollis is a character that as a reader you have mixed feelings about sometimes you think that Mads exchanged 2 evils for another. His initial feelings or actions towards Madeline you could have understood but, his actions after getting to know the woman were questionable at best. Had that enemies to lovers feel but, was Hollis playing games with the dark beauty a type of foreplay in his mind? The chemistry between these characters always simmered below the surface.

Overall the story was quite suspenseful where you were waiting for the other shoe to drop sitting on the edge the whole time. The story had more than a few twists and turns that the reader never saw, some heart wrenching and other unexpected characters popping up saving the best for last perhaps?

Found the mysterious Nate to be an interesting character looking forward to getting to know the man who made us laugh who was clearly a sh** stirrer. And lets not forget the mysterious Fox and the mysterious Donovan have we heard the last from him?




Meet Marie James


Let's see...where to begin...

I'm inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we're doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master's degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there's usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I'm not writing; I'm reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I'm reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it's gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.
