Cover of Carnage

Carnage

Carnage captures the essence of Tourist Season's dark romance by blending high-stakes danger, anti-hero allure, and moral gray areas in a secret society setting, offering readers more witty banter and gory thrills without retreading the same tourist-trap carnage.

Cover of Pestilence

Pestilence

If Death's all-consuming devotion left you craving more, Pestilence brings that same intoxicating power dynamic with an immortal rider whose obsession rewrites the rules of desire. Another trauma-to-empowerment arc fueled by explicit scenes and supernatural intensity that refuses to apologize—for readers who need their romance dangerously unfiltered.

Cover of The Predator

The Predator

If Madness left you craving more morally ambiguous alphas who blur love with possession, this mafia romance delivers that same addictive chaos. RuNyx constructs a world where every touch carries violence, every glance hides calculated danger, and the heroine doesn't soften the predator—she matches his darkness. This is boundary-erasing intensity for readers who need their romance drenched in domination and peril.
