What this book is about
Brynne Weaver's dark romance follows Sloane and Rowan, two serial killers who accidentally cross paths while targeting the same victim. What begins as a professional rivalry becomes something stranger. The novel is a dark romance built on transgressive premises — the protagonists are killers who kill genuinely bad people, and their relationship is intense and explicit. Violence is graphic and sexual content is explicit. For adult readers of extreme dark romance.
