Synopsis

A breathless dark romance that doesn't just toe the line between danger and desire—it burns it to the ground.

Honor Stone is all alone in this world. No family, no money, no future. So when she locks eyes with Strike Madden—in the morgue of all places—she’s not in the mood to be seduced. Sure, he’s drop-dead gorgeous, and the sizzle of attraction between them is undeniable, but she’s reeling from her identical twin sister’s murder. It’s the wrong time, wrong place, wrong everything.

Still, the enigmatic billionaire hires Honor as an artist to spearhead his carefully curated erotic animation studio—a job they soon find to be a dangerous mix of business and pleasure.

But when her twin’s obsessive killer targets Honor, the painful secrets of Honor’s traumatic past will finally be exposed with devastating consequences. Strike will stop at nothing to protect her, uncovering his own bone-chilling demons—a beautifully broken, dark side that doesn’t scare Honor…

It consumes her.

Goodreads review by Chris on December 01, 2024

4.5 STARS!! This book was so much more than I expected. Billed as a romantic thriller by two authors I have not read before, I couldn’t wait to dive in.

3.5 stars! Dark, menacing, and alluring!

Goodreads review by Cindy ✩☽♔ on December 29, 2024

Rating ~2.5? This was an odd book. I didn’t love it. Nor did I hate it. The concept was interesting enough, but the execution was lackluster. It was just…there? Half the time I was questioning what the plot was supposed to be. There’s insta-love and some dark romance vibes. But it was never enough o......more
