Cherry Auction—a dark, twisted romance of lies, revenge, and the thin line between loathing and obsession. Madison Harper was my ruin. She took my trust, my future, and every shred of my soul—and then vanished. Now, nine years later, she’s back. Draped in innocence and secrets, she stands on the auction stage, pretending not to know me. Pretending to forget the betrayal she carved into my skin. She’s a liar. She’s a thief. And she’s selling herself like she’s untouched. Untarnished. But I know the truth. Madison isn’t some innocent prize. She’s a snake, lying in wait with fangs full of venom. I swore I’d destroy her if I ever saw her again. But as the auction starts and I easily outbid every man in the room, I don’t feel the cold satisfaction I expect. All I feel is the fire—the pull that makes me hate her as much as I crave her. She thinks she’s starting over. I think she’s just starting to pay. Because this time, she’ll belong to me. TWs: Please note this is a dark romance with kidnapping, dub-con, and intense themes of mental illness, abuse and trauma (including references to past childhood abuse). A full list of trigger warnings can be found on the author’s website.
