Leather & Lark

From the author of the genre-breaking international TikTok sensation Butcher & Blackbird comes the second book in the Ruinous Love Trilogy - a hate-to-love dark romantic comedy packed with danger, chaos, and heat.

All contract killer Lachlan Kane desires is a peaceful life away from the brutality of the underworld. However, when a high-stakes job goes awry, putting him at odds with his boss's most important client, Lachlan finds himself securely trapped in a world of crime. Just as hope seems lost, a surprising opportunity arises in the form of Lark Montague, a sparkling indie singer-songwriter with a hidden, darker side.

Lark proposes a deal that could be Lachlan's ticket to freedom: he must use his lethal skills to help her track down a shadowy killer. The catch? They must enter a mutually loathed fake marriage to make it believable. Despite her outward façade of sunshine and glitter, Lark is determined to unravel the mysteries lurking in the dark to safeguard her family and friend's happiness, even if it means partnering with the brooding hitman she’s bound to despise.

As Lachlan and Lark traverse the sinister world that binds them, their fake marriage begins to blur with reality. While familiar dangers encircle them, a more ominous phantom looms, seeking revenge and blood. Together, Lachlan and Lark must navigate the treacherous path before them, where survival means confronting their darkest truths and desires.

Leather & Lark is a thrilling blend of danger, passion, and unexpected humour that will keep readers on the edge of their seats.
