About Blackthorn:
You never forget your first love. Especially when heโs also your worst nightmare.
Twelve years ago, Maven Blackthorn fled her small hometown, leaving behind the wreckage of her motherโs suspicious death. But now, drawn back for her grandmotherโs funeral, Maven steps onto Blackthorn soil once more, only to find herself thrust into a fresh nightmare: her grandmotherโs body has vanished.
The Blackthorns immediately suspect the Croftsโthe ruthless titans of Croft Pharmaceuticals, whose bitter blood feud with the Blackthorns has spanned generations. But when Maven comes face-to-face with Ronan Croft, the son of her motherโs suspected killer and the only man she ever loved, she discovers the forbidden passion they once shared is as aliveโand dangerousโas ever.
As long-buried family secrets claw their way to the surface, betrayal lurks behind every whisper, and old vendettas ignite anew. The deeper Maven digs for answers, the more treacherous the game becomes. And the one man she can never seem to escape is hiding a truth that could burn their whole world down.
In a town where the dead wonโt stay buried, is love salvationโฆor the deadliest game of all?
Check out my book review of Blackthorn.
