Broken Phoenix

Wicked Island, Book 1

By: Ashlyn Hades

Narrated by: Blair Thatcher, Jarman Day

Escape—impossible. Death—imminent.

After a job gone wrong, I find myself in the back of a transport van on my way to the women's prison in my city.

Only... We never make it there.

Three canisters of knockout gas later, I'm ten thousand feet in the air with a dozen other prisoners being told to jump or die. I choose to jump.

The island I land on isn't an ordinary island. The worst of the worst are put here by a private army to do the jobs normal people are too scared to do—their very own suicide squad.

Wicked teams form on the island, and most of them set their sights on me. Including the Birds of Prey. Vicious, cunning, and dangerous criminals; they entice me just as much as they scare me.

Falcon, an assassin whose unhinged nature reels me in. He wants to keep me as a pet... but he might just be the only one.

Hawk, a charming, smiling serial killer whose multiple personalities and characters make it difficult to decide if he's friend or foe.

Vulture, a stone-cold torturer whose dark past makes him distrust me and even the members of his own team.

Eagle, a massive weapons trafficker who can't quite decide what to do with me.

And finally, Raven, the leader of the group and an eccentric hacker who gets to decide my fate—if I join their team or die at their hands.

Add to all of that a sexy, protective guard who wants to save me, I find myself in way over my head.

They will break me, torture me, hurt me.

But this Phoenix is determined to rise from the ashes.

This is a dark reverse harem romance, meaning the FMC will end up with more than three men by the time the series finishes. These men are sexy and drool-worthy… but they're also dangerous criminals who won't hesitate to get their hands bloody. They'll eventually worship the ground the main character walks on, though it'll take a while to get to that point.

Cliffhanger tho

I had fun with this story. I’m just really sad it leaves you hanging with no second book. :( there really was no progress made in this first story so the cliffhanger is especially frustrating. I’m still glad it kept my mind off of life right now for a day. That in itself is priceless.
