From author Emily Blythe, comes a new, standalone, contemporary romance.
Chloe Walker
Back then the boy next door was a beautiful contradiction. An avid reader, the town brawler—my dangerous crush. Until one day he up and left town like a thief in the night, leaving me devastated.
A decade later, my nightmare returned. But Will Lewin was no longer the wild, charismatic boy of my past. He was a successful restaurateur, a stranger. He was something bitter and resentful. A fully grown man…who still left me reeling.
I didn’t want his help. But I had nowhere else to turn. I had to let him back in. Even if I still hated him. Even if he could never forgive me for what I’d done.
Will Lewin
Get the job done and get the hell out of there…nothing could be simpler. Right?
But it wasn’t. I felt it in every fiber of my being—coming back was a mistake. Nothing had changed in the years since they'd driven me from my hometown. They hadn’t forgotten, and neither had I.
Ten years on, that same wrath still blistered inside me. Except now it was squarely directed at the people who had tried to destroy my life: the residents of Falcon, my high school nemesis, and most of all, Chloe…the girl who broke my heart.

Wrath is a Seven Vices novel (a series of standalones that can be read in any order). This is a steamy, full-length romance with a HEA. No cheating.
Momma Says: 4 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐
This one is a little bit second chance romance and a little enemies to lovers romance - both of which are among my favorite romance tropes. This author and series were new to me, but the book works well as a standalone and I was quite impressed with the writing style and wonderful characters. All of the characters, love them or hate them, they're all interesting. Will drove me crazy with his back and forth and Chloe is nearly as infuriating, but whether because of that or in spite of it, I found myself rooting for them. They both have plenty to snark to throw at each other and we even get a few chuckles along the way. In addition to some steamy romance, we also get some suspense as secrets from the past meet present day and someone wants to keep those secrets hidden. To sum it up, Wrath is a compelling story and one I would easily recommend.
Emily Blythe writes steamy contemporary romances with smoldering alphas. If you like your romance served with a side of angst (and a healthy dose of sarcasm), her books are for you.
She lives with her husband, dog and two cats. Emily’s hobbies include reading, playing guitar and coffee (if coffee is a hobby).
