Montbretia was there; she saw what happened. The pickpocket went down, but that wasn’t enough to stop Curtis’s fists from flying. And when she pulled Curtis away, the other guy just laid on the side of the street. Inert. Barely breathing.

Now the victim’s comrades—who have seen their friend grievously wounded and have lost their source of income—want to talk with Curtis. But the only person they can find is Montbretia, and they aren’t sure whether she’s telling the truth when she says she doesn’t know where Curtis has gone.

Maybe she does know. Maybe she can contact Curtis. Maybe she’s the leverage the gang needs to force Curtis to meet them. Or maybe Curtis really has gone, and Montbretia will be a pretty little trinket for them to enjoy.

Montbretia is on her own—caught in a tussle between Curtis and the gang—and she needs to take her life back.

Not kindle unlimited, this one might be perma free, the others from freebie days or sites and the last one, due out in May this year The Camera, was ARC.

Clementina (Leathan Wilkey Book 1) Bag Man Bag Man (Leathan Wilkey 1.5) Diplomatic Baggage (Leathan Wilkey Book 2) The Camera (Leathan Wilkey, #3)

High Five (Montbretia Armstrong Book 1) {perma free?} Long Lunch (Montbretia Armstrong Book 2)

and others, check out his amazon author page, if not free probably from one of my freebie sites

This is #1, the start of a not so beautiful relationship, depending on who you ask.

This is one of those books that grabs you straight from the start, and I really enjoyed it, so much that I was really disappointed to suddenly find that I had finished it, I can't wait to start the next one, so i can find out what happens to Monty and Curtis.

Different, a new author, this one HIGH FIVE.gives you good background, and good characters to follow. Enjoyable thriller. Can Montbretia is on her own, can she survive. Have another LONG LUNCH to read, Given ARC by author for my voluntary review and my honest opinion.

There is no words to explain this book. It was a weird one. I wouldn't suggest reading it.
