What is this book about?
He told her to smile. He shouldn’t have.
Maggie Maine has been a shadow of herself since surviving the worst. Once full of life, she now simply exists. Paranoid, hollow, and haunted by rage at a world that looked the other way.
What begins as an act of self-defence ignites something in Maggie that she can’t ignore. When news of a mysterious killer spreads, Maggie learns that power always comes with a price, and she’s about to discover just how much she’s willing to pay.
Dark, twisted, and unapologetically fun, Give Us A Smile is a good-for-her novella about rage, revenge, and what happens when women stop playing nice.
