When River crosses paths with a man who speaks to every hidden hunger inside her, their connection spirals into an all-consuming pull neither of them can resist-but is she Grayson's salvation... or his ruin? *** Everyone in River Avelle's hometown knows about Grayson Maddox-the troubled bad boy who almost killed another student in the middle of the school hallway. Those who look into Grayson's eyes only see pure fury and hatred. They all think he's beyond redemption, even Grayson himself. But not River. As the seemingly perfect good girl, River saw something more in those alluring grey eyes. Something worth holding onto. From the first time their eyes connect, both Grayson and River feel the intense, undeniable attraction between them...but neither of them understand what's pulling them together so fiercely. The closer they get and the more vulnerable they become, River has to wonder: is she saving Grayson from his darkness? Or is she just pulling him further into hers? *** He tips my head toward his with his index finger, keeping my eyes trained on him and driving me crazy with the primal look on his face. His grey eyes look heavy, filled with dark desire, and a shock runs up through my core. Everything around us disappears and all I can sense is him and the hardness pressing between my legs. "What are you doing to me, River?" he whispers, his voice raspy and utterly captivated. His face is lowering and I'm closing my eyes, waiting for soft lips to press against mine. My whole body is on fire as I hold my breath for his touch. *** Cover by @strayin

Book 2 in #PAIN Series [This book is the sequel to Pencils & Polaroids. It cannot be read as a stand-alone. Since this part contains spoilers, it is advised to read Pencils & Polaroids first.] . . . They say every love story has a villain. But this is one with no heroes. At Ravenford, where ambition wears a crown and betrayal is the currency, Park Mellon returns, not as the girl who once believed in happy endings, but as the storm that comes after. Her heart, once golden, now beats in grayscale. Her mission is simple: destroy the boy who taught her love could bleed. Rainer Barcross has spent a year rebuilding himself from the wreckage he left behind. But when she walks back into his world, vengeance stitched into her smile, he realizes some ghosts don't stay buried; they just learn how to breathe fire. In this story, there are no heroes-only survivors. No villains-only the ones left standing when the war ends. No morals, because you'll never truly know who writes the story. Every line between love and ruin, guilt and glory, power and penance-is blurred. If the first book was enemies-to-lovers, this one is going to be ten times magnified with drama, romance, and blatant hatred. To make it spicier, play Taylor Swift's Reputation Era in the background, and you'll have yourself the very mood and setting of Book 2 in the #Pain Series - I welcome you to Snakes & Scoundrels! Cheers! 🐍

"You're atheist," I remind him. "You don't believe in god." "I believe in you," He murmurs, letting the cigarette hang from his lips. "I believe in whatever you believe." He says, letting the confession roll off his tongue as if it were that simple. As if god, the devil, heaven, hell-as if none of it really had meaning to him. "That's not how it works," I mutter as we walk down a few more alleyways-the city of Manhattan coated in a light blanket of snow. Henry Vitiello had never had anything to pray for, that is, until he met me-the only thing that had ever opened his mind up to the possibility of religion "Isn't it?" He argues, taking the cigarette by his middle and pointer finger before blowing the smoke out. "I'II dip my hands in holy water if it means I could touch you." "You'd probably burn." 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐘 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐎, the reaper. He's a prick. An asshole. A pretentious son of a bitch. He's not perfect. He's not even decent. But he's hers.
