Death Kiss Synopsis:

I promised her a year.

A year of revenge, of eradicating the people who hurt me. A year before we can be free.

I didn't promise I'd survive it in one piece.

Six months ago, we buried the first of them, and with each ghost of my rotten past that we slay, the demons only seem to crowd tighter around us. Choking what blossoms between us before it has a chance to flourish.

The angry boy I once was comes clawing back to the surface, but Kat doesn't run. She doesn't flinch.

She should.

Her parents want to haul her back to her gilded prison. Marry her to someone with offshore accounts instead of scars. When blood and pain surround us, I want to shove her there, too. Not into the rms of another, but away from the darkness that stains me.

She keeps choosing me.

Then a name from the list starts using his connections to close in. A man who needs his sins to remain buried.

I survived him once; I only hope we can this time.

Vengeance is supposed to fix me, but it's unravelling me with each life I take.

Beneath it all, there's only one thing keeping me sane. Kat. My golden-haired goddess. There are no limits to the depths of depravity I'll explore to end the danger to her. And the others.

Heart Eyes Synopsis:

She saved me once.

She probably doesn’t remember.
I can’t forget her.

Fourteen years ago, when we were small, I was starving.
Not just my stomach rumbling, but hungry for kindness. For someone to look at me like I mattered.

She did.

Until she couldn’t look at me at all.

I learned how to survive without being wanted in foster home after foster home. Holding on to my memories of her. Of how she saw me as more than nothing.

And now she’s back in my world.

Bright. Successful. Untouched by the ruin that shaped me into the monster I am.

I should stay away.
Men like me don’t get women like her.

But I’ve never been good at letting go.

So I watch. And I wait. Telling myself it’s harmless.
That loving her from the darkness is enough.

Until I see him.

A face from our past.
Someone who remembers what she did.
And wants to make her pay for it.

I have survived worse than him. I’m not afraid to abandon any remaining morals to keep her safe.

My love for her was born in darkness and fear. A glimmer of hope for a boy who had nothing.

Obsession.
Ruin.

But it’s the only good thing I’ve ever felt.

And this time… I’m not letting anyone take her from me.
