Welcome to Kinley, Lousiana- a small quiet town that hardly had any crime. It was your everyday run-of-the-mill town. That was until girls started popping up mangled and dead on the banks of the Bayou. Girls that resemble the pretty Piper Temple, who just so happened to have a huge crush on a guy, Emeric Corbin, who lived next door to her. Piper-I sat on the bank of the bayou, thinking as the water flowed with red.
My feet never touched the blood. I believed that if my feet did touch the bloody water, I would die like the girls had done. I thought of how the girls must have been taken so abruptly and cruelly. Did they know their abductor? If he came for me, would I recognize him? Was he in fact a she?My brain worked as I let tears fall down my cheeks. I wasn't crying in fear for myself, but for the three girls.
Their lives were cut too short. They would never get their hearts broken again, go off to college, or marry. Nor would they have children. Emeric-Piper was too young for me. So innocent. So... beautiful. I was no good for Piper. I was leaving and she'd find someone else to crush on. Someone who wasn't me. I couldn't protect her. She wasn't mine, although she wanted to be mine. She'd get over me and marry and have kids one day.
That thought didn't sit well with me. The thought of someone else having her made my skin crawl. Crushed is the first book in this series, which will contain six in all. Hold onto your britches. Y'all are in for a wild ride!
