First Chorus

<p><em>They say you can't save a person who doesn't want to be saved.</em></p><p></p><p>Good thing I wasn't trying to save her-only back her up every step of the way.</p><p></p><p>My name is now Rick Drew. Fresh out of a facility they called a hospital and I called a cage I wasn't looking for redemption. I wasn't looking for anything. Then I found her bleeding in an alley and everything I thought I wanted burned to ash.</p><p></p><p>Vienna Drew is sharp edges and steady hands the only person who's ever seen the fractured pieces of me and didn't flinch. She didn't run. She drew a line in the dirt and dared me to cross it. So I did. Now I'd kill for her. I'd die for her. I've already done worse.</p><p></p><p>But she's not mine alone.</p><p></p><p>Fletcher-too clever too loud too damn charming-comes with secrets that breathe down our necks and danger with a smile. I don't like him. I don't trust him. But she does. So I'll keep him alive. And if his chaos touches her? I'll end it.</p><p></p><p>Because keeping her safe is the only thing that makes sense anymore.</p><p></p><p>And just when I thought I could keep the monsters outside a new one steps into the ring. He wears a badge but I see the way he watches her-like a predator. Like prey. I don't care which. If he's a man he'll bleed. If he's a monster I'll make sure he begs first.</p><p></p><p>Vienna's chasing death like it owes her something. And me? I'm the shadow behind her the silence before the storm.</p><p></p><p>Let them come. I've already decided who I protect-and what I'm willing to do to make sure she lives long enough to burn the world down.</p><p></p><p><em>FIRST CHORUS is a full length dark adult romance and psychological thriller with suspenseful themes.
