About this ebook
#1 New York Times bestselling series and USA Today Bestseller
“I want to ruin her so that she’s mine, my beautiful disaster. My wild creature. My goddess of chaos.”
The viral TikTok friends-to-lovers dark romantic comedy full of murder, chaos, and sizzling chemistry―unlike anything you’ve read before.
When a chance encounter sparks an unlikely bond between rival murderers Sloane and Rowan, they find something elusive―the friendship of two like-minded, pitch-black souls who just happen to enjoy killing other serial killers.
From small-town West Virginia to upscale California, and from downtown Boston to rural Texas, the two hunters collide in an annual game of blood and suffering, one that pits them against the most dangerous monsters in the country.
But as their friendship develops into something more, the restless ghosts left in their wake are only a few steps behind, ready to claim more than just their newfound love.
Can Rowan and Sloane dig themselves out of a game of graves?
Or have they finally met their match?
Tropes: Golden retriever x black cat / He falls first / Touch him/her and die / Friends to lovers / Forced proximity / One bed

Spicy scenes were longer than I expected and cussing seemed forced in the beginning. Kind of a turn off for wanting something to read to kill time. It took me forever to read because I didn't feel comfortable reading it in public while waiting on whatever. the major plot points were soo good I couldn't put it down

This is a fantastic story. Please check your triggers. The is a dark romantic comedy. The detail on the world building was skillfully crafted. The characters are beautifully bold and deliciously unhinged. I was laughed from the first with the ‘orzo’. The plot was a delightfully crazy ride.
