CREEPING BEAUTIFUL
She is creeping beautiful. And now we want her back.
McKAY
I wasn’t the one who broke her but I played my part.
She came to us when she was ten. I raised her. I loved her. I taught her how to survive in a world of evil men. But it wasn’t enough.
ADAM
I wasn’t the one who saved her but I did my best.
She needed me as much as I needed her. Bought and paid for on the auction block. But not for the reasons you think. She was my weapon.
DONOVAN
I wasn’t the one who lied to her but I hid her truth. She was broken before I got there. Wild and angry. Defiant and bratty. But she trusted me most. She loved me best.
So I set her free.
Indie Anna Accorsi is a woman lost in her past.
A pretty little nightmare.
A gorgeous piece of misery.
A mess of lovely darkness.
She is creeping beautiful.
And now we want her back.
WOW! OMG! WOW! and OMG! WOW again!
Adam Boucher, Core McKay, and Donovan Couture have secrets,
but they are joined by their past as Untouchables in The Company, and joined to
Indie. Adam is on Les Fleurs Island to
attend an auction. He wants to make his
own team to carry on The Company tradition.
He finds a ten-year-old Indie Anna Accorsi. She is a throw away, not valuable to anyone
because she is wild, young, and creepy. Adam sees potential. Donovan sees someone to psychoanalyze. McKay can’t walk away even though she has the
capability to destroy them. Indie is the
perfect addition to their team. What
exactly is this group up to? The answer
to this question isn’t easy to reveal because – secrets.
Creeping Beautiful is the definition of a WOW
story. It is JA Huss at her finest. It is everything I love about this
author. It keeps me guessing. The characters are sexy, creepy, mysterious,
and loveable. Each chapter is from one
of the team’s point of view. The plot is
intricate and tight, keeping the focus on the characters, while so much action
is happening. There are twists and turns
that make me nervous and hold my breath one moment then tie my stomach in knots
the next until I start to breathe again.
I didn’t have a clue what would happen from one page to the next, but I
knew it would be a thrill. From the beginning,
I was hooked, following the breadcrumbs that expose the past, the present, and
the potential future.
Creeping Beautiful is a suspense-filled
adventure. Huss takes us on a trip back
to her wicked Company world with a completely new cast of characters, and the
return of some old friends and foes. Expect
surprises at every turn. I love that Creeping
Beautiful has old characters and events from the past sprinkled
throughout; shining new and unexpected insight on what you think you know. This doesn’t mean you must read The Company
before reading Creeping Beautiful. It is
a standalone novel. It is fun visiting
this world again with the new and some of the old. There is a satisfying ending with the promise
of more in the future. I can’t wait for
more. A must read from one of my
favorite authors.
This story is going to make an excellent audio book. I can’t wait to get it!
