  Razor Blade Candies Book One: Loves Lies Dead Kyle M. Scott 5/5 stars                                                                        You ever read a book that seems like it's headed one way and then before you know it everything veers sideways and you find yourself cheering? Love Lies Dead is that sort of book. It's a short but brutal read that basically says; "I'm back did you miss me?" Yes, Scott, we did.
