I hunt monsters for a living, and one starts hunting me back.

The Velvet Viper is my stage to expire bad men, one standing ovation at a time, the burlesque glamor camouflage for my knives. I haven't even hit the final chorus of my act when a rival hijacks my target. Logically, I kiss him with my blade and stalk him for stealing my paycheck.

The problem? He rides a black Ducati, wears eyeliner, and has silver hair that villains are born with. Two kills in, I realize we’re hunting the same marks. He proposes to work together, but I don’t do alliances or trust a soul. But I'll play nice if it gets me out of the debt owning me.

Turns out stabbing a man is the fastest way to his heart. He tattoos the scar like a vow, sends me skull-shaped chocolates, and creates me a playlist titled Knife Play. I tell myself it’s just a game, that I can keep my heart locked up tighter than my weapons cabinet. But the deeper we fall into this dance, the more I learn that on this stage, love bleeds, and sin always steals the spotlight.

Painted Sins is a standalone dark romantic comedy with a Robin Hood / Beauty and the Beast spin, featuring an obsessive antihero, a sharp-mouthed heroine with a body count, and enough knife foreplay to warrant a disclaimer. Contains content warnings. Ends on a HEA. Each book features a different couple. Ideal for fans of Lights Out, Butcher and Blackbird , and Rook and Rebel .
