Come Hell Or High Water: A Psychological Thriller
Dexter meets Mr. and Mrs. Smith. They're the perfect neighbors, the perfect parents, the perfect couple.

If it weren't for that one thing...

From the bestselling author of HER and The Social Affair comes a dark, unrelenting psychological thriller where marriage is a deadly game, deception is currency, and trusting the wrong person isn't just a mistake-it's a death sentence.

"I've been watching her for weeks. I know how she takes her coffee, the way she smooths lotion over her wrists, the precise moment exhaustion settles in before she drifts to sleep. I don't know what she looks like when she's happy. But I will."

When Cheryl Steinbeck-Edwards hires Jude Riley and his wife Kate for a home renovation, she believes she's found the perfect partnership. Turns out, nothing is perfect. And getting in that car with them? A catastrophic mistake.

Jude is a meticulous hitman. Kate is his equally lethal counterpart. They've built their marriage on a foundation of trust, strategy, and a silent competition to outdo each other. But when Kate breaks the most important rule-she refuses to kill Cheryl-everything spirals into a dangerous, deadly game of betrayal, power, and survival.

As paranoia mounts and buried secrets threaten to surface, the question isn't just who will survive?

It's how far will they go to ensure the other doesn't?

Dark, thrilling, and utterly addictive, Come Hell or High Water is a psychological thriller where deception is an art, love is a weapon, and trust is just another game to be played. Perfect for fans of morally gray characters, high-stakes domestic suspense, and twisty psychological thrillers that grip you from the first page.

About the Author

Britney King writes psychological, domestic, and romantic thrillers set in suburbia. She is currently writing three series and several standalone novels. The Bedrock Series (psychological/domestic/romantic thriller) features an unlikely heroine who should have known better. Turns out, she didn't. Thus she finds herself tangled in a messy, dangerous, forbidden love story and face-to- face with a madman hell-bent on revenge. The series has been compared to Fatal Attraction, Single White Female, and Basic Instinct. The Water Trilogy (psychological/domestic/romantic thriller) follows the shady love story of unconventional married couple- he's an assassin-she kills for fun. It has been compared to a crazier version of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Also, the hit series Dexter. Around The Bend, is a heart-pounding standalone (romantic suspense/domestic/psychological thriller), which traces the journey of a well-to-do suburban housewife, and her life as it unravels, thanks to the secrets she keeps. If she were the only one with things she wanted to keep hidden, then maybe it wouldn't have turned out so bad. But she wasn't. The With You series (romantic suspense) is a coming of age, friends to lovers, second chance (plus a few) love story about unlikely friends who travel the world; trying to find themselves, together and apart. It has been compared to Love, Rosie. Britney lives in Austin, Texas with her husband, children, two dogs, and one ridiculous cat.
