The man who calls me a sinner sets my soul on fire.

Mercy is a sinner, but Arlo is no saint…

MERCY
For years, I’ve served the men of Ember Glen. I’ve endured their depravity because it’s required. But when the most vicious man in our village decides to target me during a purge, I have to make a choice…

I can kneel and serve…
or I can run and become a sinner.

I choose sin…
I choose to run.

Only, I didn’t expect another man to chase me…
I didn’t expect the harrowing punishments he’d make me endure once I was caught…
And I certainly didn’t expect to find passion for him.

The man who calls me a sinner sets my soul on fire.

ARLO
It’s my role to maintain control in Ember Glen. Selected women must serve beneath the full moon, and refusal is not an option. So, when I see her run, refusing to fulfill her duty, I have to take control…
I have an urge to follow her…
a visceral need to hunt her down.

I have to catch her…
I have to chase her.

Only, I didn’t expect to find her so intoxicating…
I didn’t expect the brutal punishment that awaited her for running…
And I certainly didn’t expect to become her warden.

My craving for her is forbidden, and she’s dragging me into sin.

★★★★★ "This story is dark and lust-filled. It's forbidden and sexy. It's infuriating and sinful." -Boys In Books Are Better, Goodreads Review-

MERCY
Neglecting my duty to serve is a sin, and during the last full moon, I became a sinner.

He saw me run from my duty, chased me, and caught me.
He promised me that I would be punished.

But I never could have imagined the hellish fate that would be chosen for me. More than that, I never could have imagined the maddening lust that would spark between me and the man who caught me.

This passion is forbidden…and it might set us on fire.

ARLO
It's my role to catch the sinners, and Mercy sinned gravely.

I saw her and I chased her, drawn to her inexplicably.
She sparked something within me, but she had to be brought to judgment.

Her punishment is coming in the form of an archaic ritual we're bringing back to make an example of her. I'll be her warden, her keeper, the man to ensure she stays alive between her torturous trials.

Something within her brings out the worst of me…and the worst of me wants to ruin her.

AUTHOR NOTE: This is a dark romance series that involves many triggering elements which may be upsetting for some readers. A complete list of tropes and triggers can be found on the author's website.

SERIES NOTE: Spark of Madness is book 1 of 3 in the Ember Glen series and it ends on a cliffhanger. The trilogy follows Mercy and Arlo, and the books must be read in order.

Mercy endures brutal punishment for her so-called sins, and Arlo's warped worldview begins to fracture. While his affection for her grows, she comes to accept her fate. Knowing her death is inevitable, their passion ignites, setting a blaze across the boundary line between purity and pleasure.

★★★★★ "This story is a dark romance lover's dream!" -Mandy's Book Review, Goodreads Review-

ARLO

She's destined to die, yet she consumes my every waking thought.

I'm struggling against everything I've been taught to believe.

I'm falling for a sinner, and my passion for her is destroying my world.

As Mercy endures untold torment at the hands of my brothers, my soul splinters, breaking in ways I didn't know were possible. I want her so much it consumes me. I need her so much that I'd burn for eternity in exchange for a single moment with her...if only I could sell my soul to spare her life.

The fear of her looming death begs my mind to open, and all I want is a world where she lives.

MERCY

Absolution. They could etch the word into my skin, and still, it would never find me.

The trials for my soul begin, but they aren't truly meant to save me.

Nothing can save me from the way I've been broken by the men of Ember Glen.

The man who hurt me the most is also the man whose touch sets me on fire. Arlo Rainn hasn’t earned my thoughts, my attention, or my desire, yet he possesses me entirely. My feelings for him strengthen as we explore our forbidden passion, and as he comes to know me better, he begins to see the world through my eyes.

My warden's perspective is shifting, and I fall deeper into the madness of my need for him.
