She hunts killers. He is one. Opposites attract has never been so literal.

Crime journalist Oakley Novak has built her career exposing Boston's darkest secrets, but she never expected a serial killer to turn the tables and stalk her.

Xander Rhodes spent weeks watching her through hidden cameras, captivated by her sharp mind and relentless drive, until she catches him red-handed and, instead of running, challenges him with a glare that could melt steel.

Xander's either found his soulmate or lost his damn mind. Probably both.

When Oakley recruits him for her revenge plan against the man who murdered her parents, their partnership shatters every rule of Xander's secret murder society. Now they're being hunted by both sides—the law and the shadows—while racing against time to take down the untouchable enemy who took everything from her.

If you're obsessed with dark romance laced with wicked humor, serial killers with a knack for banter, and heroines who wield wit as sharply as weapons, this sinful story will carve its way into your soul.

This story blends dark romance with comedy, so while there are moments designed to make you swoon or laugh, it also delves into some pretty intense and twisted territory. "Til death do us part" might be a more literal concern for these characters.

Please read with care.

Here's a heads-up on what you'll find inside:

  • Surveillance cameras as a love language
  • Creative uses for nail guns
  • Eyeball extraction
  • Panic rooms that become very unsafe spaces
  • Murder boards made of actual murder
  • A gas station bathroom death via decorative fish (yes, really)
  • Basement furnaces with a very specific purpose
  • Various sharp objects used for non-kitchen activities
  • Blood spatter as interior decorating
  • Explicit sex scenes including public fingering, phone sex with candy, knife play, anal play, restraints, praise kink, choking, and other activities that would scandalize your grandmother
  • Parental murder and childhood trauma
  • Stalking presented as courtship (don't try this at home)
  • A secret society of murderers with surprisingly good organizational skills
  • Torture scenes that are disturbingly artistic

It's a book about serial killers finding love, so expect murder, mayhem, and questionable life choices throughout.

This is fiction! In real life, please don't follow strangers home, install cameras in people's apartments, or use kitchen utensils as weapons. Also, if someone breaks into your home and leaves you dinner, call the police, not a wedding planner.

Happy reading, you beautiful, twisted souls! ✕

So when Jiya's world comes crashing down, he's ready to burn the world to the ground to protect her.

⚠ Content Warnings ▼

Welcome to a love story where "meet cute" involves attempted murder and "relationship goals" include body disposal.

This is a dark romantic comedy about what happens when two murderers realize they're made for each other in the most homicidal way possible. Yes, it's supposed to be funny, but it's still deeply disturbing.

Please read with care.

Fair warning—you're about to dive into:

  • Multiple creative murder attempts
  • Poison as a flirtation technique
  • Various sharp objects used inappropriately
  • Body parts repurposed for recreational activities
  • Chemical experiments with unfortunate subjects
  • Graphic violence and gore
  • Childhood sexual abuse and trauma
  • Explicit sexual content including bondage, restraints, and various kinks
  • A murder club with surprisingly good member benefits

Remember: This is fiction! In reality, if someone tries to kill you multiple times, that's not sexual tension—it's a restraining order situation. Also, don't take dating advice from serial killers.

If you're still here after reading this list, congratulations. You're exactly as twisted as we hoped. Enjoy the bloodbath! ✕

BOOK THREE

To Have And To Hold (Captive)

April 2027

Lazlo & Reverie

Dark Rom Com Secret Society Found Family Banter Reversed Kidnapping Forced Proximity Obsessed Hero Reversed Grumpy Sunshine

Her carefully planned kidnap had one problem: the hostage was having the time of his life.

"Wickedly funny, gloriously twisted."
—Alta Hensley, New York Times bestselling author of He Sees You When You're Sleeping

Reverie Shaw hadn't planned on becoming a criminal. But when her boss, Leo, steals from Boston's most dangerous man and leaves her looking like the culprit, it becomes her problem. Now she must return what Leo took or pay the forfeit—with her life.

Read more...

With Leo vanished and the bounty with him, Reverie does the only reasonable thing she can to flush him out: kidnap his brother for leverage.

Lazlo Vega is a paramedic, a hypochondriac, and a man who finds a loaded gun at his chest the best time he's had in months. What could be more entertaining than allowing the beautiful, fumbling woman who's zip-tied him to a warehouse chair to think she has the upper hand?

What Reverie doesn't know is that Lazlo has a very particular skill set, and it has nothing to do with saving lives. He has no intention of leaving until she realizes she doesn't want him to.

Ebook Paperback
⚠ Content Warnings ▼

Please read with care.

By turning the page, you are officially saying "I do" to:

  • Kidnapping and captivity
  • Zip ties, a metal chair, and a pee bottle. Romance isn't dead; it's just tied up.
  • Fake torture photos made with real ketchup
  • Graphic violence and gore including industrial textile machinery
  • A bone saw, and a pair of hands someone won't be needing anymore
  • Ketamine injected somewhere you'll wish it hadn't been
  • Being buried alive
  • A coffin with company of the eight-legged kind
  • Death of a sibling
  • Parental death, including overdose
  • A late-night date at the county morgue
  • Explicit sexual content (somewhere a motorcycle seat will never be the same)
  • A murder club debating whether their loyalty card should have tiers

Before we go any further, please raise your right hand and repeat after me: I will not kidnap a stranger to get to his brother. I will not mistake a hostage situation for chemistry. And I will not climb into a morgue drawer with anyone, no matter how good his arms look.

If anyone has an objection, speak now or forever hold your peace.
No? Then do you take this book to have and to hold?
Wonderful. Enjoy the honeymoon. ✕
