Morally grey and obsessive… just how we like ’em.
The Hitmen of Ulysses is a 3 part series where each MMC (male main character) is a different red flag, making the perfect trifecta:
Stalking, Kidnapping & Blackmail (oh my!)
My FMCs are regular women who, one way or another, manage to get caught up in this world of danger, intrigue and murder for hire.

Now, he’s stalking her, listening to her private conversations and making absurd claims on her and she… kind of likes it?
Mac
