RED

by Courtney Dailey

I've become obsessed with this little one. I need her in all the ways imaginable.
My hunger for chasing prey is pushing for control every time she disobeys me and acts like a brat.
She is playing with fire, and she is going to burn.


My life was simple, go to work, get paid, go home.
Now there are bloody gifts on my doorstep. Creepy notes are left everywhere. And I constantly feel like I'm being watched.
But I refuse to be a damsel in distress.


"Red" is a modern, smutty-style retelling of the childhood story, "Little Red Riding Hood" with new sick, kinky twists.
It fits in the very dark, stalker romance genre with suggestive tropes. Please be sure to check the trigger warnings before choosing to read.
There is explicit language, violence, gore, and erotic scenes in this book.
Intended for mature audiences only.

Loved Zane

I love Courtney's take on Red Riding Hood. Zane is now a fave of my unhinged book boyfriends. Read your TW before reading.

RED

I love Red Riding Hood, and I loved this retelling.

This is dark.
This is spicy.
This has stalker romance trope vibes.
This is horror.
This is romance.

I couldn't have enjoyed this more.

This will not be my last book by this author, I can't wait to read more!

This was such a fun read. As someone who loves horror and romance this was such a perfect blend. This book kept me interested from page one till the very end. For anyone who’s a fan of dark romances I’d highly suggest snagging this book. It was such a refreshing take on some very well known dark romance tropes!

Wow.. this book is intense but shamelessly I wasn't able to put it down until finished. The darkness, the touch her you die.. amazing

Nicely played Courtney, what a take on Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. You didn't ease into it at all! Dark, spicy, quick and interesting read with a few twists I didn't see coming.

Definitely check the trigger warnings!
