A dark, twisted romcom with murder, mayhem, and chemistry that could kill
Ezra
I didn’t come to the Sinners Retreat looking for love or anything remotely close to it, but then I met Kindra.
The connection? Instant. Electric. The kind of chemistry that shakes your foundation and makes you question everything you thought you knew.
And I know danger—I’ve built my life around it. But this? This feels like something darker. Uncontrollable. The closer I get to her, the harder it is to keep my past buried. Do I tell her the truth? That the man she’s hunting . . . is me?
I’m not walking away. Not when every glance pulls me deeper into this twisted mess of attraction and danger. I’m playing with fire, and I’m not sure we’ll both make it out.
Kindra
I came to this retreat for one thing—revenge. My brother’s killer is out there, and I won’t leave until I’ve dealt with him.
But then Ezra walks into my life, with his damn glasses, that stupid smile, and the kind of charm that makes me forget why I’m even here.
From the moment we meet, there’s this pull. I can’t focus on my plan when he’s around, messing me up with every look and word, making me want things I shouldn’t. And that’s the problem, isn’t it? Ezra’s too good to be true. Because the closer we get, the more I realize he’s hiding something big. Something that might destroy me.
Or will it destroy him?
Sinners Retreat is a dark romantic comedy with explosive chemistry, razor-sharp humor, and a love story that’s anything but safe. Packed with serial killers, forced proximity, and banter that cuts as deep as the secrets, it’s a dangerously good time.

I ATE THIS BOOK UP. I have never read a dark rom-com but I was here for it. I loved Ezra and Kindra though I wish Ezra would’ve told her the truth sooner. I felt so bad after she found out the truth about her brother and I’m glad she was able to accept that her brother was a monster. Bennett got on my nerves a little bit, but I got where he was coming from so that gained him points and him assaulting fruit was not on my bingo card. It was disturbing and hilarious asf because my lord there are TWO other women on that island (not counting the FMC) and this man goes for a PINEAPPLE(???). Cat was annoying and a bit dramatic, she gave me weird vibes at first. The hatred those two have for each other has me excited for their book though!
