About this audiobook
Every serial killer needs a friend. Every game must have a winner.
When a chance encounter sparks an unlikely bond between rival murderers Sloane and Rowan, the two find something elusive—the friendship of a like-minded, pitch-black soul. From small-town West Virginia to upscale California, from downtown Boston to rural Texas, the two hunters collide in an annual game of blood and suffering, one that pits them against the most dangerous monsters in the country.
But as their friendship develops into something more, the restless ghosts left in their wake are only a few steps behind, ready to claim more than just their newfound love.
Can Rowan and Sloane dig themselves out of a game of graves?
Or have they finally met their match?
Butcher & Blackbird is the first book in the Ruinous Love dark romance trilogy of interconnected stand-alone dark romantic comedies. This dual POV novel ends on an HEA.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Slooooooow Burn. The narration was *chefs kiss*. The story... Was.... Meh. It felt like it took forever to get into the plot or determine if there was a plot. Had I not been listening to it in audio form, I would have put the book down and walked away. I felt like the last few chapters are when the story got good and there could have Def been more to get us there, but then like most good things, it was over in an instant.
