To the Reader
The men I write about are Alpha males in every sense of the word. They are the men society warns us about. They are dominant males with controlling tendencies. They are the men you know you should stay away from, yet
you are drawn like a moth to a flame. If you are looking for a sweet romance, you won't find it here. What you will find is dark passion. Many times my heroes carry what would be
considered an obsession for the women they love. Each and every character I write about has demanded their voice be heard. I have been true to that calling, and I have stayed true to their personalities, which at times, the reader may not always agree with. They are dark, they are gritty, and many times, their love is dysfunctional, but nonetheless, it is real.

Table of Contents
I’m intrigued by the paradox of the average person’s mindset. As a society, we’re programmed to believe in clichés. We’re taught that darkness lurks inside men who resemble the bogeyman when, in all reality, it can just as easily be in plain sight, hiding behind a suit and tie. If the public knew about the monster residing inside me, they would be horrified. I have a family and a job. It’s a life as normal as anyone else’s in existence, but like so many others, I live a double life.
Honestly though, it really isn’t me they should concern themselves with. No, it is the unassuming neighbor who lives right beside them in their suburban haven of false security. Oh, the horrors that go on behind those closed doors—they’re enough to make the general public cringe.
It’s a natural thing to worry, but let me assure you that rather than fear me, it’s your own family members you should fear. It’s the people you dine with and your
friends
you so trustingly allow to cross the threshold of your homes. It’s the pedophile sitting at your table in the presence of the child he’s accosted while his lies fill his victim’s small mind—promises to kill Mommy and Daddy if their shared
secret
is revealed. What an atrocity to tell them they are
special,
and say that’s why they are
chosen
to be subjected to his vile actions. Perhaps it’s your neighbor, who has lived beside you for years, but his friendship has an ulterior motive, as does his reason for bedding your wife. It could even be his wife, who hides her many bruises from when her husband last beat her in a drunken rage.
It could be any one of these people you would never suspect of harming your child, but the one person I can promise you it’s not, is me. No, I am the man who is protecting you. I’m your friend of sorts, your unsung hero. I’m the man who is bold enough to do what society has failed to accomplish; I kill off the dregs of humanity.
I do have a code I kill by. No life is extinguished without proper investigative research to ensure he is truly guilty of the offense he has been accused of.
So, go back to your safe havens, and be rest assured there is someone who is protecting those who are unable to defend themselves and, in some cases, vindicate those who are wrongfully accused. I am not the monster you need to fear; I am the answer to your prayers when it seems like no one is listening or cares about your plight.
