A Bullet and A Butterfly: Captive Obsessions series - Book 1 by Lina C. Eleste
"A Bullet and A Butterfly" is a fast burn dark-ish romance, that features a protective morally grey paramedic and a mature kick-ass heroine, who's given up on love.

Jessica Miles is a survivor, but gluing her life together after being shot hadn’t been easy. So when a masked man threatens her with a gun, she refuses to be a victim again and turns the tables on him. But nothing is as it seems, and there are more secrets stalking in the dark, than just the identity of her masked mugger.


For a second time in my life I am threatened with a gun, but this time I won't be a victim. Not again. The masked man holding me at a gun point thinks I’m weak and defenseless. He soon learns otherwise when I knock him out and tie him up. I decide to teach him a lesson and now he has a get arrested when I call the cops or be my own personal toy for two days.


My Butterfly is my obsession, my dream, my desire, but to her I’m a stranger. I’m content with it staying that way, because my own life is a damn mess. Except the circumstances force me to approach her with a very specific plan in mind. However it seems that I’ve underestimated my Butterfly, and my plan goes very very wrong. Or should I say, very very right?

Mature heroine, morally grey MMC, overprotective cinnamon roll stalker, hidden identity, emotional damage, fast burn, Beauty and the Beast trope, grumpy heroine + sunshine hero.

This book is an alternative version of my novel "A Wolf and a Butterfly", for those who prefer their romance without the paranormal elements.
