Summary

DARK ROMANCE 18+ RATED Salem Graves was more than life, she was the violent inception of my soul's reawakening, a grotesque resurrection from the quiet rot where I lay entombed. She ripped me out of the abyss, my broken self dragged screaming through the splintered glass of nothingness. Our bond was a crucible of torment, two fractured souls, melted beneath unholy heat, molten, screaming, inseparable. What she ignited in me was not love, it was desecration. She is the very light that blinds me, the darkness that devours my edges and remakes me not as I was, but as I should have been. Her. For her. Of her. The singular truth in a world of lies. We are not the survivors of a fallen world, we are its children, raised on the gore and terror monsters fed us, forged into something they could never kill, their masterpiece, their mistake. Contains mature themes and content not suitable for younger readers. Reader discretion is advised.

Kimberly: It's nice to have a great book that you can simply melt into. There's a touch of drama but not so much that it's jarring. There's a touch of spice but not so much that you'd be ashamed at recommending it to your mother. The characters have you both chuckling and rolling your eyes at the same time. ...
