Meet Brandy Hynes

BLURB

Dandelion wishes. Grains of sand. Shooting stars. Butterfly kisses.

Murder and mothballs. Carnage and blood.

Black leather gloves and too many lilies.

Time can swallow her whole, and it’s almost up.

WELLS

She’s my mission. My prize. My obsession.

Ivy Kingston is the most wanted woman in the world for reasons she is completely oblivious to, reasons I intend to capitalize on.

She needs a husband to receive her inheritance, so I’m on the hunt for a wife. As long as it’s her.

I’m not who she thinks I am.

But she has no idea who she really is either.

I’ll be her groom. Her keeper. Her lover.

And quite possibly her demise.

IVY

People often underestimate me.

They shouldn’t.

Gavin Wells is dreamy and delicious. Dark and mysterious. His world is exactly where I want to be.

But he’s got me in a chokehold of smoke and mirrors.

Someone should have warned him that burning ivy releases toxic spores.

Because I’m the spark who can reduce him to ashes.

REVIEW

This debut author nails it!

It is not a question of whether or not to read this book. It is a must-read for dark romance readers. The only question is…do you read it quickly or savor it slowly?

This book ticked off all of my boxes:

Characters…tick
The author skillfully employed a dual point of view, which I found to be a brilliant narrative choice. Exploring the characters’ growth throughout the story was truly enjoyable. The secondary characters not only enhanced our understanding of the main characters but also possessed distinct traits that added depth to the narrative.

Pace…tick
I like a fast-paced story. The story maintained a rapid pace, keeping the reader engaged. Despite the abundance of details, the narrative remained easily digestible, striking a balance that ensured it never felt overwhelming. The entertainment value remained consistent from start to finish.

Heat…tick
Scintillating! I could feel the passion and desire in each intimate scene.

Heartache…tick
Happy endings are more satisfying when the characters endure heartache along the way.

Twist…tick
Nothing makes me happier than reading a realistic yet unexpected twist. This was one of the greatest twists that I have read in a long time.
