6 - TWISTED TIGHTER - A Sparrow Webs Novella

We saved one another.

My name is Laurel Pierce.

I wasn’t a damsel in distress, or at least I hadn’t known I was one.

Mason was unaware of his identity. All he knew was the façade of a monster. I mean that quite literally. When I met my husband, he was an assassin, going by another name, a killing machine capable of unthinkable atrocities for the right price. And yet when his sights landed on me, a cataclysmic shift occurred, one that would bind us together and take both of us to a world we never imagined.

Today we live with our family—some by blood and all by love.

I’m a researcher, a doctor, and a chemist.

I’m also a wife and friend.

I didn’t think that life could throw Mason and I more curveballs than placing us with the king of Chicago’s underworld.

I was wrong.

Life had other plans.
