Loving the Reaper

An angsty, best-friends-to-lovers, dark romance from bestselling author Lola King.

He waited years for her to choose him. His patience has run out.

Welcome back to Silver Falls University. There is a murderer among us.

I've been best friends with Wren Hunter for sixteen years. The boy who chased me in our schoolyard, kissed my scraped knees, and always swore to protect me grew into the god of Silver Falls University: admired by his peers, desired by every woman on campus, and feared by anyone who gets in his way.

Wren knows me better than anyone. He sees through every wall I build. He can handle my fire and my stubbornness. Sometimes I believe he can even tame it. This is why I thought we would never cross the line between friendship and more, no matter how many times we teetered on the edge of it.

I was wrong.

The mask he wore around me is gone, and what's underneath is dangerous, unrelenting, and obsessive.

Wren doesn't just want me—he decided I'm his.

And in his world, no one says no.

There's a secret society behind him, powerful enough to cover up anything—or anyone—standing in their way. Now, I'm trapped in his game, bound to a man I don't recognize, in a world where nothing is what it seems.

Bodies are piling up.

Trust is a luxury.

And Wren Hunter might be the one thing that destroys me.

Loving the Reaper is a dark romance intended for mature listeners.

This is the second book in a series of three interconnected standalones.
