“I don’t just want to hear her laugh, I need to earn it. Every time I gain a little ground, I want more. I want to break out of the shade and back into her light. Without even realizing it, I’ve become addicted to it. To her.”

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.

Contract killer Lachlan Kane wants a quiet life working in his leather studio and forgetting all about his traumatic past. 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 songbird 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 is the sunshine and glitter that burns through every cloud and clings to every crevice that Lachlan Kane tries to hide inside. The surly older brother of her best friend’s soulmate, Lachlan thinks she’s just a privileged princess, but Lark has plenty of secrets hiding in the shadows of her bright light. 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.

Brynne Weaver went at it again with her mission to ruin certain foods for everybody. Just kidding, I can still eat Pizza just fine. The thought of a “pizza smoothie with fancy calcium” did make me a little bit queasy though.
Lachlan and Lark loath each other because their first encounter isn’t exactly smooth sailing as they both make (the wrong) assumptions about each other’s characters.
They end up being forced into a marriage of convenience to protect the ones they love - enter forced proximity.
I loved the transformation from dislike to love because you could tell how deep their feelings for each other ran. The nicknames were everything!
Brynne did an amazing job choosing Samantha Brentmoor and Eric Nolan as narrators. I could listen to Samantha sing all day long and Eric did great embodying the different male characters!
They went all out with their performance, not only reading the words but also doing the appropriate sounds in certain scenes (iykyk).
You’ll love this book if you’re into grumpy MMCs who fall hard and sunshine FMCs with a deep trauma who learn to trust again, all mixed with a lot of humor and mystery.

Delicious Pizza

The narration wasn’t bad, the story is okay, but it doesn’t come close to B&B. But it is also really difficult to top.

Cannot hold a candle to B&B!
