Stone Cold Hearted: Ruthless Creatures (The Ruthless Creatures Series)

By Adaline Winters

To catch a cold-blooded killer, you must become a cold-hearted predator. Growing up in a cult had its perks--no devices, no drama, no decisions. But education, opinions, and pleasure were punishable offenses, and women bore the crushing weight of responsibilities forced upon them by the men who demanded unconditional devotion. Then there was the cult leader, Jonathan Walker. Master. Manipulator. Monster...and my betrothed. On the eve of our forced union, my mother led a desperate escape, sacrificing her life for my freedom. Her dying breath fueled my thirst for revenge, and for a decade, I've walked this perilous path alone. Now I'm back and ready to take on Jonathan and his second-in-command--the brother I left behind. But I'm in over my head and need help. Enter Hunter King, an enigmatic hurricane. Vice president of a powerful Texan motorcycle club, ex-military, focused, and precise. His sharp tongue delivers dirty words, igniting a fire within me as he attempts to slip beneath my defenses. The harder I try to ice him out, the hotter his determination burns. Hunter wants to pull me into the light, but where I'm headed, he can't follow. To destroy a monster, you have to become one--and all monsters are destined for Hell. Stone Cold Hearted is a standalone dark contemporary romance and is part of the Ruthless Creatures universe.
