Ashlyn Rivers is a detective in the Orias Police Department. Every day she goes about doing her part to protect and serve the people. Recently, a new criminal organization has moved into the city. If they continue to disturb the current crime boss and his empire, they will start a turf war that will hurt a lot of innocent people. The mayor, meanwhile, has declared that the Vigilante is to be … to be arrested on sight for fear others may try to copy him. Ashlyn cannot explain it, but she feels a connection with him and believes that he actually helps the OPD. If he truly has the abilities they say, she can sleep better at night knowing he has watch. Many in the department, however, will go out of their way to make a name for themselves by being the cop that brings him in. Even if it costs lives.
There’s a war coming and a lot of blood will be shed unless Ashlyn can stop it with help from the Vigilante. That’s if the Orias Police stay out of the way.
She works for the law, he works above it. Will they find a way to save the city and come together, or will their worlds forever keep their love apart? This debut novel puts a fresh spin on the female heroine, the man that loves her and those she’s sworn to protect.

Lawrence Hall’s debut novel is outstanding! It is an action-packed, page turner of a tale. A strong female cop and a Vigilante who has sworn not to kill need to work together to bring justice to the city of Orias. They quickly find there are other forces at work, and the attraction to each other is something they cannot deny. Will justice be served, or will the war continue? To find out I highly recommend that you read this book!
To begin with I need to say that I am not big on paranormal but this one is more like a suspense superheroish thriller romance. You get the badass heroin and the mysterious vigilante. Both are obviously attracted to each other but Lawrence is mastering the slow burn… I like that you get small pieces of both there background thrusting the book. I am so happy that book 2 is out already I am really not a good sports on cliffhangers. Diving into book to immediately.
Vigilante was a very interesting story! I enjoyed reading it even though it ended with a cliffhanger. This is my first book by Lawrence Hall and I loved it!! The book was entertaining, page turner with awesome characters.
I was enthralled with this book. Vigilante is the first book of the series. I really liked how Lawrence Hall gives descriptions of the characters and the scenes. He certainly knows how to create a world that draws me in as a reader. There are twists, turns, and suspense that kept me interested. I am looking forward to reading the next installment of this series.
Did not enjoy this book as much as the first 2 in the series. It is still a very good book. More blood and gore. The main characters were just going through so much I Just wanted the book to end.
Vigilante By Lawrence Hall
Vigilante is all about setting the stage, introducing you to the characters, and snagging you on the mystery of our Vigilante.
This book caught my attention and held it. I wanted and needed to know what was going to happen.
While there is some cliches; mysterious hero, strong heroine, small masterminded evil villain, and a bigger henchman, the story was still unique. It didn’t come across as old, used materials.
I knew I was going to enjoy this book within a few pages. Specifically with the outrage that a shoe was thrown. I read it at least 5 times. Giggling like a dork on my train.
While there are a few editing errors, and a some confusing details; are they standing or sitting, who is speaking? They did not detract from the story. If you have followed my reviews, you know those little things snag my attention.
I specifically enjoyed that this book set up The Vigilante’s Choice. I read the story’s back to back, and it flowed so well together that I have to stop myself while writing this review to make sure I am not saying something about VC.
Book 1 is a slow burn. If you want the steamy steamy, just wait, that’s a coming…… a cumming.
Vigilante is a action packed, mysterious, attention grabbing, and a perfect book to be made into a TV superhero series. There is enough Paranormal to keep those who love that world interested, and enough non-paranormal for those who like it that way, to also enjoy it.
