Redemption in the Dark (The Righteous Book 5) Kindle Edition

4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars 59 ratings

Wolf would sacrifice his life to save hers, but would he have to?

Maeve was finally free. She might be on the run, but she was not in a six-by-six cell for something she didn’t do, which was all that mattered. Small spaces and too much quiet time were never good for someone like her. Addiction was a real thing, a disease that pulled on the very fabric of her being, and she found herself once more wanting to succumb to that tantalizing desire.

Unfortunately, her turn of good fortune wouldn’t last when she realized that a U.S. Marshall was hunting her, and not just any U.S. Marshall, but the best tracker they had. A Wolf. He was one of the sexiest and most frustrating men she’d ever met.
Can Maeve avoid Wolf’s capture, or will she fall harder than she’d ever imagined?

Wolf understood all too well what it meant not to fit in. He’d spent his life trying to blend two worlds, neither of which wanted him. After a devastating loss, he decided to join the army and embark on a new chapter of his life that he thought would heal old wounds. Little did he know his greatest pain was yet to come. Back home, he was now a U.S. Marshall and divided his time between apprehending fugitives by day and burying them for The Righteous by night.

When he was given the task to bring the fugitive Maeve in, he thought it was a simple ‘dead or alive’ order, one he’d done a million times. What he hadn’t bargained for was the beautiful-storm of a woman that would test him at every turn and catapult his simple world into a life and death race from an enemy neither one of them saw coming.

Will Wolf and Maeve find the calm in the storm, or will they be swept up and carried away by it?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Writing is not just a passion for me. It is a lifeline to my sanity.

I have always loved writing but suffer from severe dyslexia and short-term memory retention issues. I struggled in school while I worked every night on re-training my brain.

I was frequently treated like I would never succeed, and I found myself putting my love for writing on a shelf.

Even at the age of six, I found it easier to communicate with animals than people, which was a big reason why I was drawn to dressage horseback riding. I remained focused on my passion for riding until I had to step away from the competition world for personal reasons.

Today, my desire for writing and storytelling has been rekindled. I have published multiple books and will never let anyone or anything hold me back again.

I am a proud romance author who offers my readers morally grey heroes, a ton of spice, epic journeys, and redemption stories.

Action Packed!
Redemption in the Dark is book five of The Righteous series and can’t be read as a standalone. I was not prepared for this book or that cliffhanger! It was brutal! This book kept me on the edge of my seat right from the start.Maeve is on the run because of a crime she didn’t commit. Wolf is the one that was sent to find and catch her. She put up one heck of a fight too! The angst between these two was amazing…I love angst! I don’t want to give anything away but the chemistry between these two characters was crazy! When it heated up, it was HOT!This book has angst in spades, suspense that will keep you guessing all through the book, betrayal, secrets, and twists that will have you asking many questions! I need answers and can’t wait for the next book!

    This the fifth book in the Righteous series and once again absolutely loved it! Brooklyn Cross once again has written an amazing story that had me hooked right from the start and experiencing all kinds of emotions. Her characters are always fantastic and Wolf and Maeve are no exception. When they meet they are not ready to be together and it tales a while for them to grow enough and let go of their pasts for this to happen. Still their chemistry and heat is off the charts and explosive when they finally do. The book is full of action, angst, heart, heat and twists. Be prepared for a what the??? cliffhanger ending that will want you needing book six ASAP. This book and series is an absolute must read! I wish I could give it ten stars.

    WHAT. JUST. HAPPENED?! I think my brain just exploded. I’ve been reading this series since the beginning and I was invested in Maeve & Wolf’s story just as deeply! (Possibly more?)
    Maeve and Wolf definitely do not have first meeting that anyone would call typical though, to be fair, their love story is not even close to typical either. Maeve is not only battling her own demons, on the run, and in the center of so many unanswered questions after being accused of something she knows she didn’t do.
    Wolf does not know what to make of this girl but, he sees something familiar in her and is drawn to her. He has had to deal with his own darkness and together they seem to find something in each other that they were missing. While this is a smidge of a slow burn, there is MORE than enough angst, action, and suspense to keep you on your toes! While I was really sucked in by the crazy moments, I also loved the quieter ones.
    Thank you, Brooklyn Cross for another Righteous book boyfriend that will occupy my brain!!!

    This starts off with Maeve from the previous book she was framed for a crime she didn't commit and was broke out of prison by Arex and Kes. You have Wolf who is a US Marshal and was put on the case to find her and bring her in of the rightious who wanted her dead. She put up a fight and managed to escape from him until he caught up with her and realized something wasnt right. Wolf had his demons he was caring but so did Maeve they both had to fight there battles in their mind with their flashbacks they continued to have. Wolf and Maeve fell for one another and continued to battle their way to safety even though the Righteous kept finding them. The cliffhanger this one left me on had me diving straight into book 6.

    I am öbşessed with The Righteous Series and this book is another example of why. I usually avoid slow burn romances but not only did Redemption in the Dark pack a surprising amount of heat, the storyline was so dämn compelling. Wolf and Maeve quickly became one of my favorite couples in the series (please don't tell the others 🤫). What both of them have been through, especially Maeve broke my heart, but it only made them coming together so much sweeter (and hotter 🔥). There's a build up to their relationship that not only felt right but given their pasts, was needed and I loved every minute of it.

    If you've read the other books in the series you've already seen a bit of Maeve's wild side. But Redemption in the Dark really peels back the layers of who Maeve is and shows us a side of her I wasn't expecting. Wolf was more of the calm and steady type, so I loved watching the effect that Maeve has on him. She definitely turns his world upside down but it's in the best of way.

    I absolutely loved their story. It's more than just an opposites attract read. These two really bring out the best parts of each other and their story is definitely one of my favorites.

    But that ending though...😳🤯😵‍💫. Be prepared for a cliffhanger and if you're the type who avoids them, please don't let that stop you from reading this, because this book was amazing!

    I fell in love with this series when I read the first book. And this book, it was absolutely amazing. I love that we get to know Maeve, because the little bit you get to see her in the previous book, you just know she’s going to be this amazing character. And she was. She’s tough, and resilient. She dealt with such horrors in her childhood.. and while she had issues, she managed to survive it. And, Wolf.. I absolutely loved him. He’s one that holds so much guilt inside. But it makes him even more protective when he realizes things aren’t as they seem with Maeve. This book, it hooked me from the start, and I did not want to stop reading. From start to finish everything about it was great. I definitely recommend this book. And am looking forward to the next book in this series.

    This series just gets better and better! All the interconnected back stories are just blowing my mind!!! I love it so much. Wolf is amazing, end of!!! Could there be a better book boyfriend? I don't think so. I really don't like slow burns but this one didn't phase me. The chemistry between Wolf and Maeve was beautiful. I loved all the indigenous inclusion as well! These characters worm their way into your heart and minds. That ending crushed me, I need answers!!! It was not ok to end this on a cliffy. I cannot wait for the next books, there is still so much we don't know! I need to start all over at the beginning now, to make sure I haven't missed any info!! I love it Apollo much.

    Reviewed in Canada on October 14, 2022
    Maeve and Wilde’s story is truly unique! Sent to capture here and bring her in dead or alive Wolfe sets out to capture Maeve, but he didn’t expect the warrior he found! Maeve with her dark past and trauma has learned how to survive in the worst of cases and this time is no different.
    The Righteous series just keeps getting better and better and I have no idea how Brooklyn tops herself each time! Heads up the book ends on quite the cliffhanger that will leave you begging for Book 6!
    I just can’t get enough!!!!
