Tropes and Triggers galore

🥀🏹 SHATTERED WICKED LIES book two in the series by Andrea Huston 🏹🥀

🔥 Dark Romantasy You’ll Obsess Over

She was his soulmate.

Until the lies shattered them both.

Fallon thought she knew the truth.

One death. One trigger pull. One betrayal too many.

Now banished to an abbey, she's left to burn quietly in the ashes of her past—

Until the ghost she tried to forget walks back into her life.

Royce thought he lost her to God.

But fate? Fate isn’t finished with them yet.

And neither is love.
