SPICY DARK ROMANCE BOOKS 📚

The Never After series is one of the darkest series I’ve read. 😮 Each book is a standalone that focuses on tropes of Disney villains (in the real world, not fantasy). My favorite would be Scarred, but they are all so twisted. And number six is coming soon! #lemon8bookclub #lemon8bookchall
