The Damaged and The Damned by Cole Gray

The Damaged and The Damned is Book One in The Unforgiven Trilogy- A Dark Romance Collection that follows the lives of three individuals who seemingly have nothing in common: A Forensic Psychologist, A Detective, and A Tattoo Artist. Scarlet Mays, PsyD, after escaping the chokehold of a traumatic childhood. Scarlet runs a private investigations office called The Firm. While The Firm carries out everyday business matters, Scarlet's primary focus is working as an undercover decoy to rid her town of real-life monsters to protect other children from having to experience the same things she did. Although effective, her methods are more than a little unorthodox. Detective Sebastian Tate prides himself on living a life of honor, honing in on the core values his parents taught him. That is until Scarlet recruits Sebastian to leave behind his role on the police force to join her on her mission by giving him a seemingly impossibly difficult decision: Life and loyalty or Death and dishonor. Wesley Micheals is a local tattoo artist and business owner whose life unravels the first time he meets Scarlet. His obsession leads him down a path that is different from the one he set for himself, but he will do everything it takes to get the only thing he wants in life: her.
