 From New York Times bestselling author Molly McAdams comes a powerhouse romantic suspense that will have you questioning your morals and second guessing your view on love. I live in a world few know exist. I’ve trained for this. I know what to say, what to do, and how to act. I’ve perfected the lethal calm required for this life. Now it’s time to buy my first girl. But all it takes is one look at the brave girl who starts singing mid-auction for that calm to slip. Briar Chapman is going to be the death of me, and I don’t care. I’ll take every day with her until that death comes, and I’ll welcome it when it does. On the outside, Lucas Holt is what nightmares are made of. A man cloaked in darkness, with sin-filled eyes and an enticing grin. A devil so devastatingly beautiful and cruel that his very presence instills fear. But beneath his terrifying, ever-calm exterior is an affectionate man haunted by a past that refuses to stay buried. And Lucas looks at me as though he’s finally found the only person who can make it all go away. We’re a battle of the brightest day and the darkest night—and I want to lie in the wake of our war. 4 Star Review by Ashley WHOA! Blackbird is the first book I've read from Molly McAdams in probably two years and now I'm kicking myself for that dry spell because this book was something else. Crazy intense doesn't even come close to describing the ride I was taken on with Lucas and Briar's story. Dark. Light. Hope. Fear. Mystery. Lies. Devil. Angel. Secrets. Betrayal. Lust. Love. That's just a few things I felt and experienced while reading this book. The opening got my heart racing and sucked me right in. I had to know what would become of Briar with this evil twist life had thrown her way as she was delivered to the hands of the devil. But that devil, Lucas, was so much more than meets the eye. This man had layers upon layers of life in him. He had lived, loved and lost. I liked how Briar breathed life back into him. Gave him something positive to fight for. She made him face his demons and be the person he wanted to be. Not who he had to be. And he allowed her to find her voice. To embrace who she was and live freely in the comfort that he had her. It was one twist and turn after another and I was never quite sure which way was forward. Thankfully, for Briar and Lucas they were able to find solace in each other. It wasn't easy or pretty. In fact it was downright ugly and painful. Their carefully constructed world was always in jeopardy, hanging on my the smallest thread. When everything came to a heart-pounding head, I could finally breathe a touch easier. Bravo Molly McAdams. Blackbird took me out of my comfort zone and, surprisingly, I thoroughly enjoyed every dark and twisted moment of it. opening got my heart racing and sucked me right in.

About the Author  Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband, daughter, and fur babies. When she’s not diving into the world of her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and long walks on the beach … which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes.
She has a weakness for crude-humored movies and fried pickles, and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm … or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados. That way she can pretend they aren’t really happening.
