A dark, spicy romantasy packed with hellfire, chaotic magic, sinful temptation, and a heroine who treats bad decisions like a lifestyle.

Book 2 in the Guardians of Death series, continuing the chaos through Blackwood sister Rue’s eyes.

Second year at Death University. They said it’d be easier. Fewer near-death experiences, more advanced courses, less chaos. Basically: eat, nap, repeat.

Yeah, that was a damn lie.

Now we’re competing in the Abomination Games because a certain glitter-happy deity decided we are. And apparently, saying no to her is the fastest way to end up smote into cosmic confetti.

So, I smile, nod, and pretend I’m not internally screaming with hunger.

Meanwhile, a certain someone won’t stop getting in my head… and under my skin. Men are impossible, honestly. Unless they’re ripped straight out of a smut book, then I’ll take one. Or two. Maybe three. Let’s call it research.

This year’s shaping up to be one hell of a ride… and I plan to enjoy every sinful, sparkly second of it.

Reaping of Hellfire is Book Two in the Guardians of Death series and is not a standalone. The series is planned as a four-book dark romantasy saga.
