***SEQUEL TO THE #1 BESTSELLER BODY COUNT SERIES***
I never planned to chain a gangster to my bed, but now, I’m not letting him go.
I was raised in boardrooms, not back alleys.
But when my grandfather died and our company fell into chaos, I uncovered something far worse than bad accounting: a connection to the city’s darkest underworld.
I needed answers. I needed help.
So I made a deal with a devil in a skeleton mask. One with a body made for sin and a past that might destroy us both.
Convict is brutal, broken, beautiful, and claims he knows me, even if he’s a stranger. Amnesia stole his memories, yet the way he touches me, looks at me, and possesses me, tells a different story.
Now I’m in too deep, with the man, with his skeleton crew, and with the secrets someone is killing to protect.
And the only way out is to bring it all crashing down.
Convict’s Game is the first book in a high-heat, dark romance, murder mystery trilogy with a skeleton-masked crew, an obsessive-sweet gangster, the smart cookie he’s insta-obsessed with, and a city where the shadows hide more than just sin.
This series picks up where the #1 bestselling Body Count series left off.
Tropes & Themes:
- Corporate Princess x Street King
- A deal with a delicious devil
- Dangerous games (the chasing kind plus more)
- Cute AF gangster hero with amnesia
- Obsessive love, rough play, and handcuff action
- Found family, secrets, and a deadly inheritance
- A murder mystery to solve (with clues)
Reader Note
Dear reader,
Ever since Convict’s introduction in my Body Count series, readers demanded more. Well strap in, because he’s here to give you everything you asked for.
Be aware that this is a dark romance with boundary-pushing scenes. Check the triggers if you need to, but if you loved Arran’s Obsession (Body Count, #1), you’ll be on your knees for the broken crew member who got left behind.
If you haven’t read Body Count yet, I recommend you do because it’s awesome. You can also just dive straight in here if you prefer.
Adore audio? The audiobook is multicast duet and devilishly good, with Lucas Webley, Zara Hampton-Brown, Shane East, and Ella Lynch. There are sound effects! Listen along as you read – it’s another level of incredible.
Are we good? Let’s slip on our Skeleton Girls Detective Agency t-shirts and saunter into the dark streets of Deadwater together, back into the hands of our favourite skeleton crew.
Love, Jolie
