Description

A queen of wolves with the fire of dragons.

After her madness sparks into fatal flames, Signy Volsung finds herself locked away in a psychiatric facility, where her past blurs with torturous treatments that do nothing to cure her unraveling mind. But when her father shows up a year later with her new husband-to-be, Signy soon realizes she has only just begun to learn the meaning of insanity. 

Geir Gotar, a rival heir and childhood companion who owns most of the city and wants nothing more than to see her family dead, now calls her wife and brings her into the safety of his family’s enchanting gothic estate. But their marriage contract isn't what it seems, and they'll need to work together if they want to stop the murders ravaging their city. If Signy can't remember her past through the madness of her mind, she won't be able to stop the cycle of violence that haunts the innocent, and if Geir can't put aside his agenda and death grip on control, there'll be no hope of survival for either of their families.

They’re bound by more than just vows in this psychological thriller that blends high-stakes action, deep-rooted trauma, old Norse magic, and paranormal elements. What if corruption can burn at the hands of one woman?

Carrion of Ashes is the first book in a dark psychological thriller romance series that's a Norse folklore retelling with a frenemies-to-lovers arranged marriage.

Advance Praise

"Wow just wow! I am an avid reader and it takes a lot these days for a book to suck me in and not be predictable. Carrion of Ashes not only drew me in and made me not want to put it down but also kept me guessing until the very end and even then I can’t wait for book 2!" - Kate, Goodreads Review

"The story of Geir and Signy is one of strength, support, and survival, but getting there is not an easy journey. It's almost hard to write this review without wandering straight into spoiler territory, so instead, I'm going to share the quote that stopped me in my tracks: 'Men are predators. Women are the monsters they demonized when we wouldn't bow down to their commands.'" - Stephanie, Goodreads Review

"If you love Norse mythology, morally questionable characters, obsessive/volatile relationships, Harley-and-Joker-level chaos, complicated family dynamics, and an all-around killer fest, consider this your sign to add Carrion of Ashes to your TBR. Because apparently my preferred reading experience is watching absolutely unhinged people fall in love while everyone around them makes increasingly questionable decisions. And honestly? I regret nothing. 😂🖤" - Spencer, Goodreads Review

"This was one of the best reads I’ve had this year I finished it in just over a week and that’s only cause I prolonged the last four chapters I wasn’t ready to let it end yet I absolutely can’t not wait for the next book and will be trying more of this authors work the writing style is original and very captivating." - Miranda, Goodreads Review
