Synopsis
What do you do when the killers come out to play? When it’s hunt or be hunted?
You sharpen your knives and prepare to get bloody because nobody does it better than a woman scorned with something to prove.
Welcome to the 23rd annual serial killer war games, where the adrenaline runs high, the blood is fresh, and the revenge is best served cold.
Descending on the town of Blue Springs, Montana, twenty of the most cunning and skilled killers and assassins will come together for a month-long war, battling it out to claim their place at the top of the food chain, claiming the ultimate victory.
It’s callous, cruel, and brutal. They will be hunted. They will become prey. And when the time comes, they better be ready to fight. Because only one will make it out alive.
It’s a game of endurance. A game of depravity and horror. But what happens when the man who stands between an early grave and victory is the one man who could bring you to your knees?
Will you have the courage to take what’s yours and claim the title you’ve always deserved, or will you falter at the tip of his double-edged blade?

My Review
'W𝐀R G𝐀M𝐄S' Is a full length enemies to lovers romance book by author Sheridan Anne. Spoken in 'dual Pov's.'
Once I saw this doing the rounds, and reading over that blurb, and of course throw in the author.. I knew it was my kind of read, and after devouring it cemented the fact yet again why this author became one of my top favourites. I haven’t read all of her books and that’s one I have to rectify, but ones I have, I’ve loved wholeheartedly.
Set in a small town of Montana in Blue Springs twenty (thirteen men & seven woman one being a child) of the most feared assassins/killers will be attending War Games, a game of hunt or be hunted, real life hunger games for serial killers. A month long tournament with a ten million prize pool at stake.

At twenty four, Siren is one of the selected ones which has been an ultimate dream of hers forever, she's one of the best contract killers in the world.
At thirty-four Reaper, has been approached six years running to attend the games, each year he's declined..until now..

What Siren didn't expect to happen was the instant her eyes clapped onto Reaper was to feel any sort of attraction towards him. But in her own words. 🚩...'𝙸'𝚟𝚎 𝚊𝚕𝚠𝚊𝚢𝚜 𝚋𝚎𝚎𝚗 𝚊𝚝𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚌𝚝𝚎𝚍 𝚝𝚘 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚛𝚎𝚍𝚍𝚎𝚜𝚝 𝚏𝚕𝚊𝚐𝚜.' But to be fair, it doesn't take long for Reaper to become obsessed with her. ...'𝙸𝚝'𝚜 𝚊 𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚕 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚁𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚘 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝙹𝚞𝚕𝚒𝚎𝚝 𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚍𝚢. 𝙹𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚖𝚢 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚕𝚞𝚌𝚔.

This book had everything my dark little heart desired, when your thrown into a room full of top assassins in a league of their own, and one to be claimed the winner, you root for your favourite contender hoping against the shitstorms coming their way that there’s an out for them.
BUT..
Instead of just having one favourite in this, I had three. So I was always on the edge of my seat, praying each of them would come out unscathed.
Triple the anticipation levels, triple the extra beats in my heart..This books put me through the wringer.
I held my breath a time or two
I giggled
I swooned
I died a little bit when a twist had me gasping in disbelief.
This book is unlike anything else this author has written..I loved these characters so much, and I hope we get more. I need more!! Or please even another game like this set up by someone else would be good thanks lol..I don't want this world to end!! GIVE ME MORE!!
