Series: The 4Horsemen #2
Publication date: November 4th, 2020
Synopsis:
He was the Golden Boy until she tarnished him...
I woke up to my roommate and best friend missing. In her place was a note on my bedside table that read: You can only find me with your eyes closed.
No one thinks a note like that is meant for them.
I knew it was meant for me, a clue, a way to seek Justice.
Whoever left me that note was hoping I didn't let my parent's legacy die when they did. They wanted to see what kind of warfare I was capable of.
Justice before starting a war with the man who wrote the rule book...
I woke up every day to the same nonsensical bullshit that was my life.
They say only bad things only happen after dark but I was the exception to every rule. I was bad and I happened whenever I wanted.
I wanted someone to challenge me, put me in my place, force me to be better than war strategies and hold the audacity to traipse across enemy lines.
A pink haired receptionist wasn't my first choice for shaking my resolve.
I can still smell her but I wanted to know if she'd taste like Victory.
Death before dishonor meant not losing to her...

Excerpt
Answering the phone, I held onto my breath, when I heard an older woman's voice come through. "So, you're the guy responsible for her bad attitude."
A nervous laugh erupted from me. I had never dated anyone long enough to give them the idea that I would want to speak to anyone important to them.
Besides her.
"I'm so glad you called me back..." The Clave mask slipped back into place, polishing all my stained edges in the hopes of impressing her.
"Didn't give me much of a choice, since you've been calling me every day. Is there something I can help you with?" Her voice showed her age, but her mouth was a family heirloom passed down to Justice.
"I love Justice very much. I wanted to express this to you and prove that I deserve her hand in marriage."
Laughter poured in from the other end of the phone. "You don't take no for an answer, do you? If she wanted to marry you, I don't think she would have evacuated LA like a natural disaster was headed her way."
"Respectfully, no. I don't lose gracefully."
"Go on. I'm gonna need to hear you express those feelings," she said, but not with an iron fist. Her voice sounded tired and worried for Justice.
"Okay... I'm not a great person, but I'm a better person because of her. I want to be good enough to deserve her."
"Oh, honey, she wasn't always a good person either and don't you let her forget it. Wicked girls like her can't forget to be humble..."
The Iniation by Elena Monroe (The 4Horsemen #1) -
Elena Monroe grew up in Florida scribbling down stories from a very young age. These stories were really just wavy lines filling the paper, but she knew each word, each emotion, each character's name, and there was no tricking her into forgetting what each line signified. Just like her unconventional way of writing as a toddler Elena is setting her own rules and just telling stories.
Much like her debut novel, The Best Years, life certainly imitated art. Transplanting from the South to the East Coast, Elena currently lives in Connecticut with husband, reformed bad boy.
