Ready or Not meets Throne of the Fallen in a spicy, enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance, where an Italian getaway turns deadly after a young woman is trapped in her host family's cursed game.
Ready or not, the game has begun.
Genevieve Grimm has felt adrift ever since her sister became the head of the family. So when a mysterious friend of their mother's invites her to Italy, she accepts. She arrives at his grand palace, expecting passion and magic, decadence and luxury . . . perhaps even a midnight ball.
She doesn't expect the owner's ruthlessly handsome son to slam the door in her face. Rowin Silver is tall, dark, and exceptionally rude, and invitation or not, he demands Genevieve leave and never come back. But Genevieve follows nobody's orders, especially those of arrogant rich boys. She slips inside—and immediately discovers her mistake.
Rowin and his family are caught in an insidious game of hide and seek, where only one can win. The rest will be trapped in Hell
. . . until the competition begins again.
Genevieve must either join the hunt or forfeit any hope of escaping. But to her dismay, her best chance of survival lies with Rowin. Since lovers may play as a pair, Rowin and Genevieve agree to form an alliance under the guise of a fake courtship. However, as they race through the game's elaborate labyrinth, trapped among gleaming gold and shining marble, their loathing gives way to irresistible attraction. Only Rowin is keeping secrets, especially when it comes to his ruthless family, and Genevieve can't help but wonder if she's trapped in two treacherous games: Enchantra and the one Rowin is playing with her heart.

Read full series description
Set against the backdrop of hauntingly beautiful, almost forgotten places, the series invites readers to explore a universe of twisted contests, haunted mansions, and forbidden alliances. In Phantasma, the first book in the series, Ophelia Grimm finds herself in a perilous race against time and fate, her every step watched by unseen forces as she faces trials inspired by ancient myths. These games are more than simple challenges—they test the soul itself, revealing truths better left buried.
The Wicked Games series is as much about the intense, emotional arcs of its characters as it is about the chilling, atmospheric settings that surround them. As each book introduces new characters with darker and more complicated pasts, the series slowly unravels deeper layers of mystery. Genevieve Grimm, Ophelia's sister, takes center stage in Enchantra, diving into a world of high society, betrayal, and a love that may not be what it appears. Each installment brings new dangers, new rules, and new revelations, but always with a core question at its heart—what would you risk to win the game?
Themes of trust, deception, and self-discovery echo throughout the series, while the psychological depth of the characters ensures that each twist is felt deeply. Love, loyalty, and betrayal intertwine with dark magic, and as the rules of the game change, so too do the hearts of those caught within its deadly web.
Wickedly dark, emotionally layered, and tinged with romance, Wicked Games is a saga for readers who crave a blend of gothic allure, thrilling suspense, and complex relationships. If you’re ready to step into a world where survival means playing by rules no one can truly understand, this is the series you’ve been waiting for.
