The Vigilante Hitman series spans three books published between 2017 and 2020. The series blends romantic suspense with a darker premise involving a character who takes the law into their own hands. Stand By Me launched the trilogy, with Hold Onto Me and Stay with Me completing the arc three years later.
The series sits on the darker end of Kelly Moore’s catalog. The vigilante justice angle gives these books a harder edge than her small-town romances, and the stakes carry real danger for the characters involved. The gap between the first book and its sequels suggests Moore returned to the series after reader demand, completing a story that had more to tell.
