The final book in the series: Psychos In love.
I've been naïve, and that's a cold pill to swallow. If you had asked me just a month ago, I would have told you that betrayal wasn't possible anywhere near me. Boy, was I wrong. It's been a hard lesson to learn that the person I thought was once my protector is now my enemy, and the ones I thought were my enemies are protecting me. It's all really fucked up. Although I want to believe I've found it in this messed-up trio of men, but have I?
I'm out for blood and not just the three of them, but my once protector. They will all pay before I let them make me bow again. I want to give in to them and let them have their way, but first, I have to show them I am not someone they can walk all over. They will kneel before me as the queen that I am.
Maddie:
I'm not a psycho.
I have a rhyme and reason for what I do.
Maybe it's against the law. I don't care.
Besides, I'm the judge and executioner here in Wonderland, Texas.
That is, until my brother's best friend takes up for me. Loves me.
Now I'm not sure I can continue my mission.
Drew:
I'm a detective of the Wonderland Police Department.
The Mad hatter is on the loose.
My attention isn't on the case.
No, it's on my best friend's little sister.
She's trouble.
Trouble, I want to get lost in.
But can I keep her safe and love her at the same time?
