Wicked Riddles & Bitter Heartbeats by Penny Fox

She’s the only thing standing between me and the darkness that consumes me.

Atticus

Vengeance is all I know, and my life has become a twisted pursuit of it. Betrayed, abandoned, and left to rot, I’ve turned into something unrecognizable—a man who prowls the shadows, leaving nothing but death behind. Every step I take is one closer to making my brother pay for what he did. But then Lilah enters my world, and everything shifts. She makes me question the path I’ve carved out of blood and darkness. Can I hold onto the rage that fuels me, or will her light tear down the walls I’ve built? If I let her in, she might save me—or she might get dragged into the hell I can’t escape.

Lilah

Running from my own demons, I never expected to find solace in someone as broken as Atticus. He’s dangerous, unpredictable, and his eyes carry a darkness that should scare me away. But instead, I’m drawn to him, finding comfort in his arms despite the chaos that surrounds him. I know he’s on a dangerous path, and being with him could destroy us both. Yet, I can’t help but want to save him from himself, even if it means risking everything. Can I be the light in his world of shadows, or will I lose myself trying to pull him from the edge?
