Excerpt Reveal: Killer by Heather C Leigh
Killer meets Britt
The girl, Britt, is moving around the
small space, clearly at ease with her surroundings. She opens a
laptop and sits at a desk wedged in one corner. “You can sit.”
Britt points to a second chair.
Good. For a second I thought I was
going to be forced to get up on the treatment table. I’m not in the
mood to be a guinea pig today.
That’s a lie. I don’t really care
what the trainers or specialists do to me as long as they make me a
better fighter. It’s the girl that bothers me, not the thought of
being under a microscope. This is the only woman I’ve ever met who
isn’t instantly and irrevocably afraid of me, and the only one
whowho has me tempted into thinking I could have more. More than a
filthy, dirty fuck to release tension. More than someone to use for a
few hours of pleasure.
Britt’s obviously already damaged. As
much as I’d love to peel back those layers, I don’t want to give
her a chance to dig out my own psychological scars, the nightmares
hidden beneath a baggy hoodie and a cold stare. If I do, Britt may
never recover from what she finds.
“I’m sorry,” she apologizes,
tapping on her computer. “I only found out you were coming last
night, so I don’t have much information and haven’t reviewed your
medical file.”
She’s so quiet, I strain to hear her.
When I don’t respond, she cocks her head and her eyes flick up to
mine. Shit. I duck down so she can’t get a good look at my face.
Fucking coward. She’s going to find
out at some point, idiot. Why delay the inevitable? She’ll see the
same thing everyone else sees when they look in my eyes… nothing, a
monster, a killer.
For the first time in ten years, the
thought disturbs me.
Ten years ago, their lives shattered to
pieces...
And he's the KILLER that has to live
with it.
Two people. One incident.
Interwoven between two damaged souls in
ways they don't understand.

Ten years ago, their lives shattered to
pieces...
And he's the KILLER that has to live
with it.
Two people. One incident. Interwoven
between two damaged souls in ways they don't understand.
But now, they must fight the same
war--a past that wrecked them both--destroyed the two people they
used to be. With a hurricane of love, hate, anger, fury, and fear,
can two broken lives find a way to let it all go for a chance at
happiness?
Heather C. Leigh is the author of the
Amazon best selling Famous series. She likes to write about the
'dark' side of fame. The part that the public doesn't get to see, how
difficult it is to live in a fishbowl and how that affects
relationships.
Heather was born and raised in New England and
currently lives outside Atlanta, GA with her husband, 2 kids, and
French Bulldog, Shelby.
She loves the Red Sox, the Patriots,
and anything chocolate (but not white chocolate, everyone knows it's
not real chocolate so it doesn't count) and has left explicit
instructions in her will to have her ashes snuck into Fenway Park and
sneakily sprinkled all over while her family enjoys beer, hot dogs,
and a wicked good time.
