The vibe
Harlow Carrenwell has turned herself into the monster men fear—because in the absence of a conscience, fear is the only thing that works. Born the youngest daughter of Lunameade’s magical founding family, Harlow’s gift is simple and absolute: everyone she kisses dies immediately. She’s used it to annihilate her family’s enemies. Her first husband is already in the ground.
Her next betrothed is supposed to follow.
But Harlow has a secret life beyond being her parents’ assassin. In the city’s shadows, she’s a vigilante hunting abusive men: meet a mark, lure him in, kill him with a kiss. Until one night, she kisses a target… and he doesn’t die.
Worse? The man immune to her poison is Henry Havenwood—her mysterious new betrothed—and now he knows about her double life. With the Havenwoods reappearing after years of silence, Harlow’s only chance to protect her secret (and her city) is to get close enough to Henry to uncover what his family is planning… while trapped in a fortress surrounded by vampire-infested woods.
Cursed with a husband she can’t kill, Harlow must do the impossible: make the man who knows she’s a killer fall in love with her anyway.
