VIM Redux #8

THE VIM SERIES DESCRIPTIONS

Hope and light... I have neither...

Bane

My life revolved around death, they told me I had no soul.

Until I met her, my Grace.

She brought a secret sunshine to my life, until she didn't. She left with my brother.

Then I met her daughter, and she desperately needed the skills I've honed over the years.

In the end, it didn't matter, all I knew was that I had to protect Grace's child.

I did what I had to do. I did it for my Grace, my own saving light.

Bane

When I get a photo of my grandson inside a sniper's target, I know I can't let that happen.

He is the best of me and I wasn't going to lose him to a sniper because of something I did in my past. First, I need to find the bastard who would threaten my family.

My old life just can't let me go and I can feel it sucking me back in but right now, I'll use whatever I can to fight this.

Kisa

All my life I've heard the story of how my father was cut down on the streets by a madman.

A madman who couldn't be found. Until I found him.

Between my father and my older brother, their hatred ruled everything they did.

My father was left as only half a man after the attack but he was still alive.

Over time, he let go of his hatred and just lived his life. My older brother never did.

It took twenty-five years for him to die and that was only because of an illness he refused to get treated.

But before he died, he made my brother vow not to get his revenge.

My father just wanted to die in peace. My brother gave my father the peace he asked for but he couldn't let it go.

After we buried my dad, he vowed a blood oath to get the man who killed him and make him sorry he was ever born.

That's where I came in. I found him, I found Bane Jessin. Heaven help me...

Bane, Deke, Sam, Zipper, Cricket, and many of the Sin's Bastards make special appearances in this story.

James

They call me Ghoster for a reason... I flit between the shadows of the grey areas, never staying long enough to get caught but long enough to know where to go next.

I work for a man the underworld is terrified of and with good reason, a man known as the Priest. He's the one man you don't want to confess your secrets to. Then he found the one thing he always wanted and asked God for a do over.

Then I met my do over woman, my Sydney.

But the reason I'm here in the first place isn't going away and there's a man out there that will protect his secrets from being known and Sydney knows his secrets.

He doesn't know it yet, but Sydney is the only woman I would die for if I have to, she's also the only woman I would kill for and tonight, someone is going to die....

Sydney

Whoever said life is a bitch was talking about my life, I waited for twenty nine years to find my prince and I finally found him, in James

But another man's secrets, a man with too much power and money, stands between us and has marked both of us for death.

Do I have the courage to finally stand up for myself and reach out and grab that brass ring that life is all about? Will my fear forever lock me in the shadows?

For James, I step out of the shadows when the showdown comes and no one is more surprised than me. Will it cost me my everything? But there's one more secret to share with the world and I have it...

Every Sinner has a Past...

Damon

When Levi Silvers met the Savaged Souls, he went down.

With some help from some new friends, he and his organization were taken apart brick by brick.

And I was offered a do over. A once in a lifetime offer, to start my life over.

After working for Levi for over twenty years, it was time to move on to bigger and hopefully, better things.

After I got the bad aftertaste of taking his orders out of my soul.

I did a lot of bad things in my career but there was only ever one regret. Once upon a time, I had a wife and son. I lost them when I was fighting for my country and I never really knew why. Bane offered me the chance to find out why. So, I took it.

That's when secrets of twenty years ago were revealed and I found an enemy I didn't know I had. But tracking him down also led me to her. My enemy was still out there watching me but I couldn't leave her behind.

She was the missing piece of my soul. When I met her, things just clicked and I knew I had to protect her above everything else. Then my enemy made a fatal mistake and tried coming after my woman. One of us will die before this is over....

AlyBella

After a lifetime of moving from place to place, always looking over my shoulder for someone deadly, I finally settled down in a small town in West Texas. Here, no one knew my name let alone anything about me and that was fine by me.

I was sick of hiding and so sick of running for something I hadn't done. Then he came along. As much as I wanted to ignore him, I couldn't. He drew me in and wouldn't let me go—to tell you the truth, I didn't want to go.

I wanted to stay with him. He made me feel safe and wanted. Something I never felt before. But would the secrets I shared with only one other person tear us apart or would it end the lies I've lived with every day for the last twenty something years?

Did I have the courage to find out or would I have to run again—this time from him?

The Vincinti's and the Sin's Bastards... star in this one

BANE'S SHADOW

I thought I left this world behind me two years ago, but my past won't stay as the past. After I settled an old score, I went back to Troy to collect the woman I want to bear my name, only to find a file left to me by a man who never should have known what was in that file.

Leon Vincinti has tripped over some deadly information that threatens my future.

The information Leon brings to us, tells a story that I never knew about. A story that has yet to conclude and it brings a shadow into my life that shocks us all.

While the VIM team and I are looking into what this file points to, I spot another nightmare from my past and this man is pure evil.

I let the police handle him the first time and he should have spent the rest of his miserable life behind bars but he's free and now, I find he's after someone innocent.

This time, I have to stop him forever, as I know what this man does to his victims.

But I find I'm not alone in this hunt, my VIM brothers are standing at my back... then I find it only takes one shot for all hell to break loose... just one shot.

The Vincintis star in this one...

Cane

When I found my brother, my twin I also found a piece of me I didn't know I was missing.

Why we were separated is still a mystery but before we can find out why, one of the group my brother is with gets a personal phone call from Leon Vincinti.

He has asked for a personal favor. That's a call they can't ignore, so we go to Boston.

Bane has told me of how our grandfather was asked to take a job to hunt down a woman and kill her but he returned the deposit and turned down the job. Then he died for returning the money. Turns out, this very event is linked with Leon's favor.

For eighteen years, this woman has been in hiding and now, the killer is back in town looking for her. Leon thinks he's closing in and we are here to help stop this madman. When I see her, I know she's meant to be mine...I will protect this woman right up to my last breath...

Valencia

I've faced death before, I watched my parents die in front of me, I watched my older brother die in front of me, but I will be damned, if I will die by the same killer. I spent over half my life in hiding and I'm not going to hide from life any longer. Cane offers me a way out and I'm taking it.

Cane makes my heart pound in my chest and I'm not sure why but I'm willing to find out. He also likes to piss me right off and that might not be as safe as he thinks it is either. I guess time will tell on that.

Let this killer come for me, he'll find out I'm not as easy to kill as he thinks.

With my help, the VIM team is able to track this family of bastards down.

When the showdown comes, I find a way to get closure.

This is a fight between this killer and me and I'm not willing to give him another inch of my life.

Bane

All my life, I felt different from everyone else that never bothered me before as my grandfather began training me at the age of 2 ⒈／⒉ to become someone people would whisper about in the back alleys of the world.

Then when I reached the end of my life, I got offered a redo and for once in my life, I wanted something different. I knew there was something more out there and I wanted to see it, feel it, and live for the first time in my life.

I took it and now I realize I got so much more than even I bargained for.
