Sweet Like a Psycho
Ivy Smoak, author
I don’t care what my neighbors think of me. All that matters is that my son and I are safe. I’ve created a life for him so different than the one I had growing up. So let people talk. I stopped listening years ago.
But when the rumors lead to a detective showing up on my doorstep? Not okay. Well, maybe it’s okay. Because it doesn’t seem like he’s here to hurt me. He looks at me in a way that no one has in years. He didn’t grow up in this small town and he doesn’t know what people say about me. And when we talk, I forget that it’s his job to put people behind bars. I think he forgets it too.
The only problem is that there’s some truth to what everyone says about me. After all, rumors have to start somewhere.
