About this listen

From the author of the genre-breaking international TikTok sensation Butcher & Blackbird comes the second book in the Ruinous Love Trilogy - a hate-to-love dark romantic comedy packed with danger, chaos, and heat.

'Brynne is a master weaver of words in this dark, decadent and delicious story of serial killers, sexy spice, and sensational fun!' RuNyx, USA Today bestselling author of the Dark Verse series

----

Every killer claims a soul.
Every phantom wants revenge.

All contract killer Lachlan Kane wants is a quiet life. But when he botches a job for his boss's biggest client, Lachlan knows he'll never claw his way out of the underworld. At least, not until Lark Montague offers him a deal: use his skills to hunt down a killer and she'll find a way to secure his freedom.

The catch? He has to marry her first. And they can't stand each other.

Indie singer-songwriter Lark may seem like sunshine and glitter personified but she has her own secrets hiding in the shadows. With her formidable family in a tailspin and her best friend's happiness on the line, she's willing to make a vow to the man she's determined to hate, no matter how tempting the broody assassin might be.

As Lachlan and Lark navigate the dark world that binds them together, it becomes impossible to discern their fake marriage from a real one. But it's not just familiar dangers that haunt them. There's another phantom lurking on their doorstep . . . And this one has come for blood.

I love the first book in the series and the second didn't disappoint! I laughed out loud, grinning so big my cheeks hurt and was utterly disappointed when the story ended!! Looking forward to the next one with anticipation. And having dual voices makes the scenes that much more enthralling. Great listen and would highly recommend it for those with a dark and wicked sense of humour. Ecen the scene when it should have been sad, you cant help but grin at the aunts mannerisms. I would say the performance definitely made it. Excellent, keep up the good work.

Brilliant, funny and hot!

I absolutely loooooved the narration of this story. The spicy scenes were sooooo good!
The only thing that I had to ignore was the forced laughs and giggles.

The story was good, but the narrators just make it - Chefs kiss.

OMG the narrators were Chefs kiss

No notes on the story! Only issue I had was with the actual audio. There are some sections where the male voices are much softer than the female’s, like ads being louder than the movie 😅

HOT

Absolutely loved this book - unhinged, sexy and funny.

Performances were amazing - but the laughter was SO cringe. Felt like tv show forced / canned laughter - way better to just read “she giggled” - rather than have fake annoying sounds of amusement. Nearly ruined the audiobook as I want to switch off every time I hear the narrators fake laugh.

Unhinged in the best way
