ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 15, 2022

I never asked to be the monster’s new obsession.

Chad Volchkov is as merciless as he is beautiful.
He’s the savage leader of the gods of chaos who walk Raventhorn Academy’s campus.
He’s determined to ruin me and make me pay for my father’s sins.
I fight fire with fire.
Until he discovers a secret that could cost me everything.
Now that I’m at his non-existent mercy, he wants to break me.
Claim me.
Own me.
Make my body bend to his will.
I know how to choose my battles.
But this is a fight he promises I won’t win.
His twisted mind has him focused on a new prize—
Keeping me.

REVIEW:  BAD BLOOD by Faith Summers is a stand alone, contemporary, new adult, dark Mafia, bully romance novella set in the author’s Raventhorn Academy and Dark Syndicate worlds. This is Bratva heirs Chad Volchkov, and Billie Fairchild’s story line.

NOTE: Bad Blood was originally released in the April 2022 FILTHY ELITES anthology.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Chad and Billie) BAD BLOOD focuses on Billie Fairchild’s arrival at Raventhorn Academy, a prep school for the infamous, rich, powerful and elite. Billie’s arrival at Raventhorn is unwelcome by Bratva heir Chad Volchkov, a young man who blames Billie’s father for everything that has gone wrong in his life. Chad is determined to destroy our story line heroine, and in doing so, break what’s left of Billie’s psyche and soul. What ensues is the bullying and destructive attachment between Billie and Chad, and the fall-out as someone else seeks revenge against our story line couple.

Billie Fairchild’s only sin is to be the daughter of a sick and twisted man. Billie’s father is blamed for the destruction of Chad Volchkov’s family and his mother’s life, and in this, Chad is determined to seek vengeance against our story line heroine but all does not go according to plan when Chad begins to fall for the young woman he was hoping to destroy.

The relationship between Chad and Billie begins acrimoniously within minutes of Billie first arriving at school. From the outset Chad sets his sights on our story line heroine-stalking, emotionally and mentally abusing, blackmailing and a number of acts of questionable consent. Billie struggles in the face of the threats against her life and her heart, and in this, she gives in to the demands and orders of the man with whom she will fall in love. The $ex scenes are aggressive and intense.

The secondary and supporting characters include the requisite mean girl(s), easy girls, young Bratva crew in training, and the questionable actions of the people in charge.

BAD BLOOD is a fast paced, and heart breaking story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, abuse, bullying and aggression, acceptance and love. The premise is dramatic, dark and often disheartening; the characters are broken, desperate and dynamic; the romance is questionable on so many levels.
