Book two in the Vilehouse series completely consumed me. In Fragile Facade, we finally get Ghost and Riot’s story.

If you thought Sick Bargain was dark, Fragile Facade is still twisted, but in a more psychologically intense and emotionally satisfying way. It’s less chaotic-evil and more calculated-descent….still depraved, just with a different flavor. And I devoured every page.

Ghost has strong narcissistic tendencies. Riot? Sociopathic ones. Together? They are pure, delicious, magnetic destruction. Their dynamic is explosive but surprisingly balanced. There’s a constant push and pull between them…two broken pieces trying to see if they can fit, or if they’ll shatter everything around them first.

The Vilehouse world continues to expand in ways that are just as unsettling and addictive as book one. The small-town cult vibes, the secret society layers, the masks, the manipulation. I’m obsessed.

This is not a romance for the faint of heart. But if you love your love stories razor-sharp, psychologically layered, and bathed in shadows? Fragile Facade is a must-read.

Check trigger warnings. This book does not play nice.
