Crave the Villain

Ronan Waltz is the eldest son of Lynx Waltz, one of the most feared men in the supernatural world. Charismatic, reckless, and impossible to ignore, Ronan has always been the kind of person people are drawn to. He's the first to crack a joke, the last to back down from a fight, and somehow manages to leave a trail of chaos without ever losing the respect of the people around him. But behind every laugh and every careless smile is a version of Ronan no one has ever been allowed to see. Some secrets are easier to bury than face... and Ronan has spent years making sure they stay that way.

Adrian Hale is the son of Gabriel Hale, a man whose name alone is enough to make even the strongest supernatural creatures think twice. Raised by a father who taught him that mercy is weakness and violence is power, Adrian grew into exactly what everyone expected him to become. He's reckless, ruthless, and completely unpredictable, a psychopath who sees the world through a lens most people could never understand.

Their families have been enemies before they were born. For a while, Ronan tried to believe Adrian wasn't anything like his father.

He was wrong.

After one mistake changed everything, Ronan swore he would never forgive Adrian Hale. Not in this lifetime and not in the next.

College was supposed to be a fresh start. A chance to leave the past where it belonged, move on from Zane, and focus on the future he'd spent years rebuilding.

But some people refuse to stay in the past....

Adrian ends up at the same college. And no matter how hard Ronan tries to hate him... he can't stop feeling something every time Adrian gets too close.

Some enemies were never meant to become anything more, then just enemies, but what happens when the one person you swore you'd never forgive... is the one person you can't seem to walk away from?
