Synopsis
Three days is all it took for everyone I love to die. The fall from grace hurt. I was one of the few specialist snipers in the military who is a woman. I made a name for myself. Set records. But death has a way of changing everyone. The descent from Special Forces, to dirty fighting pits, to becoming a bodyguard for the man whose heart I broke, I never thought I’d stop drowning. One night is all it took for everything to change. One shot is all I need. My name is Zalak Bhatia. They call me Scorpion. *This book is set in a shared world with authors Lauren Biel, Dana LeeAnn, Harleigh Beck, Amber Nicole, Willow McQuerry, Jenn Bullard, Kinsley Kincaid, and Ann-Marie Davis.*
