Vendetta by Jamie Targaet
Cottonmouth MC 1
They betrayed me. They tried to sell my woman. But I’m the man they couldn’t kill. Now I’m the darkness coming for them.
Dylan: I thought I could handle my uncle’s world. I thought if I kept my head down and stayed quiet, I could survive with the help of the mysterious man who’d slipped into my bed like a secret I didn’t want to question. But one night everything shattered. My uncle Eli handed me off to a trafficker like I was nothing, and the man I trusted turned out to be the ghost Eli thought he’d left hanging in the woods — the man who would kill to keep me safe.
Vendetta: I used to be Tank, proud to wear the Cottonmouth patch, until I spoke out against the rot our so-called leaders let poison our MC. They hung me for it. I crawled out of my grave and took a new name. Now I’m back to burn the criminal empire infecting Oak Grove, and the Cottonmouths that invited it in, to the ground.
Dylan was never supposed to be part of the plan. Hell, she’s the niece of the man who betrayed me. But I’ll die before I let him hurt her again. And when Eli and his men try to finish what they started, they’ll see I’m not the same man they tried to bury.
Warning: Vendetta is intended for readers 18+ due to explicit adult content, violence, and bad language. There’s no cliffhanger, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA.
Reviews
“Vendetta is book 1 in the Cottonmouth MC series and is Dylan and Vendetta’s story. This is a gritty, intense, dramatic story that’s a part of the Hounds Of Hell MC. This story grabs your attention from the start and doesn’t let go all the way through. Vendetta will have you grasping the edge of your seat almost all the way through the book.”
— 5 Stars from GKP2460, Barnes & Noble Review
“With this being the first in a new series I would say that it’s off to a good start. I loved the grittiness of this action-packed MC romance. Dylan’s uncle is a man to be dealt with especially when it comes to Vendetta. He will protect her no matter what. This is definitely a series I will be following.”
— 4 Stars from Doris, Amazon Review
“Dylan and Vendetta are both dealt bad hands by the same man her uncle. Vendetta is out for revenge but when he finds Dylan caught up in the ugliness of her uncle he will stop at nothing to protect her. This action-packed story is intense and kept me glued to the pages.”
