A romance shaped by rivalry and a fight for escape

Billie’s ambition to leave her gang-controlled hometown collides with her connection to Caden, a rival whose past violence has already altered her life. Her MMA training gives the story a second thread of physical discipline and anger, while Caden’s blackmail pulls her into a choice that threatens her loyalty to her own crew. The relationship develops within a setting defined by gang conflict, coercion, and forbidden attraction, placing the enemies-to-lovers romance alongside questions of allegiance and the possibility of breaking from inherited divisions. The description identifies graphic sexual content and violence and states that the book is intended for mature audiences.

  • Adult readers seeking a dark enemies-to-lovers romance with gang conflict and forbidden attraction.

Book overview

The "Best of #BookTok" sensation from the author of Take My Heart: She only wants out of their broken town. He only wants her.

Two ruthless gangs have been battling for control of their derelict town. The side on which you were born is where you stay; there's no fairy tale way out. Billie's a tough North Shore girl--fighting's in her blood. But rival gang member Caden nearly broke her in savage revenge a few years back, and she's been dreaming of escape ever since.

Now, Billie's at the height of her training as an MMA fighter, the only antidote for the rage she feels inside. But she's pulled right back into Caden's torment when he blackmails her into doing a job for him. One that'll force her to betray her own crew and jeopardize what little chance she has of breaking free.

With Billie back in his iron grip, Caden becomes more obsessed with every interaction, and nothing can protect her from him. But as they come to realize they're not so different from each other, Billie's need to stay away from Caden starts to fade, replaced by something she never thought she could feel toward her arch nemesis . . .

Beautiful Fiend is a dark, enemies-to-lovers romance featuring a morally pitch-black MMC, forbidden love, graphic sex scenes, and violence. It is intended for mature audiences.
