#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

Never did I imagine that I would enjoy a book that one of the trigger warnings being cannibalism. But it was a great read and the dynamic between Sloan and Rowan was great

Wow, this book was an absolute page-turner! 😍 I couldn’t put it down! 📖🔥 The spicy scenes? 👀🌶️ Perfection! They were written just right—balanced and captivating. But fair warning: it's graphic 🩸😱, so if you have a weak stomach, consider yourself notified. However, don’t let that stop you from diving in because it’s just that good! 🙌✨ The characters? 👫💖 LOVED them. They were so well-developed, and the storyline kept me hooked from start to finish. 🕰️✨ Every twist and turn had me glued to the pages. I enjoyed this book so much that I couldn’t wait to grab the sequel. 📘➡️📗 If you’re looking for an engaging, thrilling read that’s bold, emotional, and intense, this is it! 🥳💥 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

With all of the love in my heart, it feels like something I could’ve written in high school LOL. It was just a little too insta love for me and I found myself more interested in Lachlan the whole time. That being said, I will for sure be reading the next one to see how that story goes! 3.5 stars.
