Summary
Two enemies, one goal: steal each other's hearts.
Scarlett Grey, a disgraced assassin driven by revenge, has spent years crossing paths with Quinn Adams, a skilled medic turned poisoner for hire. Their rivalry is legendary, marked by stolen clients, sabotaged jobs, and a complicated attraction neither of them has ever fully escaped.
When the powerful Magician Queen presents them with an offer too tempting to refuse, Scarlett and Quinn are forced into an uneasy partnership for a dangerous and nearly impossible heist. Working together requires trust, something neither woman is prepared to give freely, especially while both are hiding secrets that could destroy everything between them.
As the mission grows more dangerous, the line between rivalry and desire begins to blur. With betrayal, hidden loyalties, and unexpected feelings threatening to unravel them both, Scarlett and Quinn must decide what matters more: winning the heist or protecting their hearts.
Filled with tension, danger, and undeniable chemistry, this sapphic fantasy romance blends enemies to lovers dynamics, found family, secrets, and high stakes adventure into a story where love may be the greatest risk of all.

Tasty Thoughts
Holy hot hate f*cking - is this a wild riiiiide! This book knocked me off my feet. I listened to the audiobook and it could not have been more of a match made in hotness. I can't even right now with this book. This enemies-to-lovers, sapphic dark romantasy novel is incredible. The world-building is phenomenal, the characters are absolutely captivating, the chemistry is EXPLOSIVE and the narrators are perfect for the vibe of this book. The story alone is top notch but the added performance of these narrators just broke the ceiling.
I loved the adventure and darkness of this book. It was just flawlessly executed and I can't get enough. What else did I love?? SO MUCH - I loved Scarlett's edges and Quinn's curves, I loved their firey hatred/obsession with each other, and I loved the way they both fought (literally and figuratively) their pull to each other. I've never been so captivated by extreme hate segsy time before.
This book.
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
When do audiobooks 2 and 3 come out b/c WHILE I have purchased the physical copies - I'm salivating to experience these in audio.
