Description
'Everything I loved about the Ruinous Love Series and MORE . . . MORE spice, MORE plot twists, MORE serial killers' ABBY JIMENEZ From No.1 New York Times bestselling author Brynne Weaver comes a wickedly delicious new series where dark romantic comedy meets thrilling suspense - and where falling in love can be a killer 🌊🌹🔪💋 Welcome to Cape Carnage! Visit Once, Stay Forever. You can hide in the farthest reaches of the deepest hell, and I will still drag you out. Even the devil can't save you from me. Cape Carnage is a seaside town of colourful houses, quirky shops, and an unusually high body count. But with tourists comes trouble, and Harper Starling won't let anyone ruin her picture-perfect home. A skilled gardener with killer instincts, Harper protects her sanctuary at any cost. Troublesome tourists don't check out of Carnage. They compost beneath Harper's award-winning flowerbeds. But Nolan Rhodes isn't your average tourist. Devilishly handsome, disarmingly charming, and skilled with a blade, Nolan is relentless in the pursuit of revenge. Every year, Nolan slays another target. And he's saved the best for last: the undeniably beautiful Harper Starling. The problem? Harper isn't the monster he expected. And she won't go down without a fight. When an amateur true crime investigator comes to Cape Carnage on the trail of a long-lost serial killer, Harper and Nolan strike an uneasy truce. If Nolan helps Harper protect her town, she'll keep quiet about his hunting habits . . . for now. But their alliance soon spirals into obsession, one that threatens to shatter every secret in Carnage - including their fragile love. Tourist Season is a darkly funny, slow burn enemies-to-lovers romance where destruction and desire are balanced on the edge of a blade - and where love is the most dangerous battleground of all. Praise for Tourist Season 'Hilarious, hot, and maniacally memorable! I'm obsessed with Brynne Weaver's one-of-a-kind brand of fun, sexy killers' Penn Cole 'Another dark yet sweet and sexy romance - liberally spattered with body parts - crafting a fresh, funny tale in a way only [Brynne] can' Nisha J. Tuli 'An evocative, suspenseful romance that will be sure to grip onto every reader's imagination and send their pulse skyrocketing. Filled with deliciously dark humour and slow-burn tension' Hannah Bonam-Young Tropes: Small-town romance Grumpy/grumpy Forced proximity He falls first Touch her/him and die Grovelling
