Lost Daughter of a Serial Killer Series by C.M. Stunich -> Starting May 12th, 2022

[Alaina]

Finding out you’re the daughter of a millionaire true crime novelist isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
When I was two, I was kidnapped. Kidnapped by a loving family, sure, but still kidnapped.
Now, my biological mom wants me to live with her on the opposite side of the country.

Her … and my new stepdad and his jerk of a son: Parrish.
Wannabe tattoo artist, languorous rich boy, pouty mouth.
Starting a new life on the West Coast sucks, especially when there’s no love lost between me and my new family.

Oh, and my biological father? Did I mention that he’s a serial killer who wants me to play his games?
Find the right clues, follow the right trail, or someone I love gets hurt.
But what if he’s just kidnapped someone I hate instead?

Parrish Vanguard is a royal asshole.
The question is: does he deserve to die?

With the help of Parrish’s best friends—Maxx and Chasm—I have to risk everything to save a boy who considers himself my sworn enemy. Even if I save his ass, he’ll never thank me.
Lucky for him that our love-hate relationship isn’t a deal breaker.

I’ll play, Dad.
Start the game.

STOLEN CRUSH is a 180,000 word love-hate/high school romance with suspense/thriller themes. Includes foul language and sexual scenes; any sex featured is consensual. This is a reverse harem novel, meaning the main character has more than one love interest.

I swear I pick the worst series lately…. This final book release has now moved to the end of May, do you wanna hold off on this one until then? (I’m so mad I was just about to start, glad I checked first lol)

[Kade]

Totally up to you!

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

I think I'd prefer to wait... plus these are each like 500+ pages and the author states the final book will be "about five times as long as a very long novel" So... yeah lol :O

[Alaina]

Do you want me to move it to May 12th?

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Yeah, that would be great thanks!!

[Alaina]

Okay moved to May :)

[Alaina]

Starting book 1 now :)

[Alaina]

Prologue: (view spoiler)[I mean... it's a pretty bold statement to leave that on someone's doorstep. I have lots of questions. (hide spoiler)]

Hoping to get to this series by the end of the month, fingers crossed lol. This month is just flying by and I got so sucked into the Depp Heard trial I need to stop time to catch up :P

[Alaina]

LOL I honestly haven't been paying attention to that but since it's happening so close to where I am it's all everyone talks about.

[Alaina]

Ch 1-10: (view spoiler)[I'm getting the feeling that the skeleton key and heart thing weren't from Tess. I'm just wondering who they are from since the other lady is in jail, right? The one who kidnapped her originally. Also, why is Paul offering up surgery on his own kids? That's gross and suspicious. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 11-20: (view spoiler)[COULD THE GUY WITH THE STICK BE THE KILLER? Or her dad? OR BOTH? I have lots of questions. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 21-Finish: (view spoiler)[WHAT THE FUDGE? Where the hell is Parrish? Oh man, I need the next book now! (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Prologue: (view spoiler)[What the? I was hoping the game he was sending on would make more sense but now I'm just confused. Is his whole goal to get people to hate her? (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 1-10: (view spoiler)[Ugh. I hate these games. I just want to know where he is. Also, not a fan of the girls attacking her. I just wished those two would realize what's going on instead of doing this war bullshit at school. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 11-20: (view spoiler)[Okay, yes, it is really weird that her dad is making her sleep with these guys. Also, how have they not found him yet? Ugh. I hope they do before this book ends or I will be so mad. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 21-30: (view spoiler)[OMG THEY FOUND HIM. But, what the fuck, they have to go back to the party to hear some bullshit speech? UGH (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 31-Finish: (view spoiler)[omg the drama is getting even crazier. Why take maxx if he has Maxine? I just don’t get it. Also the house being on fire? Ugh. (hide spoiler)]

Book 3 (Endgame) has been marketed as a trilogy since the first book released and was even marked so on Amazon until recently and now it says…..

“This is book three of four in the series. Please note: authors have no control over the way books are listed as "3 of 3" on the series page; when the fourth comes out, it will say "4 of 4" at that time.”

So how brutal are the cliffy’s of this first two books, maybe I can mentally prepare myself enough? I asked for info on the series on FB so I’m hoping someone has answers lol. Hate this though cuz I’m worried as this author has been known for taking FORVER to release..

[Alaina]

Hmm I don't think they are that brutal if I'm being honest here. I'll let you know what I think of the third one.

[Alaina]

Prologue: (view spoiler)[Okay, I have lots of questions. For example, who did she just kill? (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 1-10: (view spoiler)[Things are just soooooooo awkward lol. I'm happy she got the reunion with her grandparents though. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 11-20: (view spoiler)[Ugh, all the "daddy" and "princess" is making me want to barf. I also feel like her plan is going to backfire, again. Not surprised so many people are backing Justin though. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 21-30: (view spoiler)[It feels like so much is happening but not really at the same time. Like this book could have been done already. Ugh. Let's see what's going to happen next. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Ch 31-Finish: (view spoiler)[UGH I HAVE TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER BOOK? (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Not going to lie, I'm mad with this cliffhanger.
