Vengeful Hearts
He's the danger she never knew she craved.
Med student Blake Hyland's got it all figured out - or so she thinks. Enter Damon Axton: masked vigilante by night, obsessive stalker by day. He's dangerous, damaged, and can't stay away from Blake.
Despite her best efforts, Blake's drawn to Damon's intensity and dark charm. Between his cheesy horror movie quips and her snarky comebacks, she discovers there's more to her "creepy stalker" than meets the eye.
But as Blake gets caught up in Damon's plans, she's forced to confront uncomfortable truths about those closest to her. The line between right and wrong blurs, and Blake must choose between her safe, predictable future and Damon's dangerous world.
Can a by-the-book med student and a morally gray vigilante find their happily ever after? Or will the shadows of their pasts tear them apart?
Buckle up for a dark romance that's equal parts swoon-worthy and suspenseful. You'll laugh, you'll sweat, and you might just find yourself falling for a villain with a heart of gold. After all, it's the brightest flames that cast the darkest shadows.

This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I was constantly wanting more and could hardly put the book down.

If there’s one trope that I know I’ll love it’s over the top, violent, obsessive MMCs who break into the FMC’s home and take little trinkets

If you like dark romance with an unhinged group that has amazing banter, twist and sweat inducing spice get ready for Blake and Damon.
She cracks codes. He cracks skulls. Together, they’ll break all the rules.
Tech genius Falin Sinclair thought she’d dated every type of guy out there - until she met Jasper Shea. Golden boy looks, killer instincts, and a battle with addiction he can’t quite win. He’s a walking contradiction, and she’s determined to unravel his mystery.
Jasper’s used to being the charmer, the adrenaline junkie who can talk his way out of anything. But Falin’s sharp wit and even sharper mind leaves him scrambling to keep up. As they dive deeper into New York’s underworld, their explosive chemistry becomes impossible to ignore.
But when a high-stakes mission goes sideways, Jasper and Falin must confront the demons of their pasts to save their future. With enemies closing in and time running out, they’ll have to decide: can they afford to choose love when lives are on the line?
