Scorpion Book Description:
Three days is all it took for everyone I love to die.
The fall from grace hurt.
I was one of the few specialist snipers in the military who is a woman. I made a name for myself. Set records.
But death has a way of changing everyone.
The descent from Special Forces, to dirty fighting pits, to becoming a bodyguard for the man whose heart I broke, I never thought I’d stop drowning.
One night is all it took for everything to change.
One shot is all I need.
My name is Zalak Bhatia. They call me Scorpion.
“‘Am I your guard or your date?”
Scorpion by Avina St. Graves
“You’re mūrderous and stunning. You could be neither of those things and still kïll a man with your bare hands. So take your pick. Either way, you’re coming home with me tonight.’”

Scorpion Review:
Zalak and Mathajis were always meant to be endgame. Returning home to accept a job from Mathajis after running away to join the military, Zalak now protects him with her life at the cost of protecting herself.
I love a good Black Cat/Golden Retriever and Scorpion delivered. This is hands down Avina’s best book to date.
Zalak’s battle with PTSD was written really well. It was difficult to watch a character struggle to the point of attempted suicide, but the emotions were raw and real. I really appreciated how Mathajis was strong enough for both of them when Zalak was struggling with depression and thoughts of suicide.
Scorpion is an excellent introduction to The Exodus series. While the books can be read in any order, I recommend starting here.
Scorpion is perfect for readers who enjoy a secret society that hunts humans for sport, a bodyguard romance where the badass female protects him, and an MC with a haunted past fighting for the will to live.
