So the streets taint another soul…

Ryan

To survive in the Los Muertos Cartel, you have to stay useful, especially when you're a woman. So I made sure I couldn't be replaced. Now my name is whispered about in the shadows—La Brujita de Los Muertos.

Too bad I forgot that lies and deceit are the lifeblood of this toxic paradise. I should have seen the betrayal coming. My hands were always destined to be drenched in the blood of guilty men.

Gunner

Sometimes it takes someone willing to walk in the dark to allow others to live in the light. She is a beautiful savage. All the things I am not supposed to have and maybe never will.

Meeting her changed all of my plans; it altered the very fabric of my future.

This is my second time reading this book. However, this time I amped up my reading by following along with the audio. Let me tell you, it was a magical experience. The narrators absolutely killed this. High, highly recommend.

I loved how badass Ryan’s character is! It's refreshing to read a book where the fmc is just as ruthless as the males if not more! Performance was amazing too!

Badass fmc ❤️

I went into this blind and it turned out to be one of the best audiobooks I’ve ever listened to. It had me enthralled from the beginning and kept me entertained all day! Strong female lead who embodied ‘badass’ and a male lead just the same who supports her bloodthirst. Action, hot sex and suspense! Perfect! I am excited to continue the series.

Beyond Amazing!!!

Skeletons of Society by Marie Maravilla.

Skeletons of Society is the first book in the Toxic Paradise Series. Ryan runs gun and the show. Never doubt a woman forced to grow up fast and tough because they become strong and take zero shit. Compelled into a partnership with Gunner, MC Sergeant of Arms, things develop quickly and soon cross the line from professional to personal. Nobody sees them coming and it’s perfect. I love when a dominant FMC clashes with a powerful MMC. Sparks everywhere. IYKYK. Definitely counting down the days for the release of Syndicate of Sins.

“Money makes weak men into monsters real quick,”

“That’s a woman who doesn’t need a man to stand in front of her. She needs one who knows when to stand beside her, behind her, or kneel in front of her.”

“The gray area is where people who do the most good for others live. We are willing to bear the burden so others can stay solely in the light.”

“I want to own every part of you. But I want it all, Ryan. If you give yourself over to me, you will be mine. Understood?”

“God, I want to keep you,”
