She set the trap. He walked in smiling, convinced he was the hunter.
SUMMER
I manipulate.
I deceive.
I seduce.
I steal.
I kill.
I'm not a bad person!
And I'm definitely not a stalker, though some could argue that shadowing Atlas Holt and his friends for months, casing his business, or measuring him in his sleep out of boredom is the definition of stalking. I call it preparation.
I need Atlas's love as a means to a blood-soaked end. But playing carefully curated, sick and twisted games with this delusional psycho is pushing me dangerously close to the trap I set.
Simple plans rarely stay simple.
ATLAS
Summer Night is like a rollercoaster: exhilarating, unpredictable, and every once in a while, it leaves me wondering if it's passed the routine maintenance and I'd be getting off alive. That only makes me want her more.
Whether her ways of flirting would land me in a straitjacket or a grave is not the real question.
Who is she, and how many body bags does her real name drag behind it?
Hopefully, fewer than mine does.
I have a feeling the truth won't just hurt.
It will kill.

Neither the “romantic” nor the “comedy” labels should fool you into thinking there isn’t plenty of darkness bleeding from the pages of The Scent of Crazy in the form of graphic themes, morally corrupt characters, and adult content throughout.

"Fuck... She's the kind of woman wars get started over."
"Death only likes to bang me, but it never keeps me."
"Where others see your destructive side, I recognize a woman strong enough to fight for what she wants, not letting anyone push her around. You are a force of nature nothing compares to. Don't let anyone tell you the darkness you possess is something bad. It's the best part of you. A unique kind of darkness that brings light to me every time I think of you."
“Choke on your blood as I choked on my tears.”
“But the bottom line is, you took my brother from me, and for that… I’ll drown your fucking world in blood.”
