A disappearance draws a dangerous crew into a dark romance mystery

The second installment of the Skeleton Crew trilogy continues the search for Dixie, a missing friend, as the investigation leads into the secrets of Deadwater and another body is found. The unnamed narrator works alongside Kane, a silent ex-mercenary whose guarded nature and possessive protectiveness shape their increasingly complicated relationship. Romance and murder-mystery threads are closely intertwined, with the story building on events from *Convict’s Game* rather than starting a new, self-contained case. The publisher describes it as a high-heat dark romance featuring a skeleton-masked crew.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who enjoy contemporary dark romance with a high-heat element.
  • Readers interested in romance combined with a disappearance investigation and murder mystery.
  • Readers following the Skeleton Crew trilogy; this installment picks up after *Convict’s Game*.

Book overview

I didn't mean to draw Kane's attention, but he turned it into a hunt.

When my friend vanished without a trace, I vowed to bring her home.

I didn't expect to team up with a towering, silent, ex-mercenary whose reputation sends grown men running.

Kane is a dangerous man.

He doesn't ask for what he wants, he takes it.

Becoming his prey is a fool's game, yet I can't stop prying into the secrets he guards, even as I hide my own.

But the deeper we dig into Dixie's disappearance, the more the world tilts.

And when another body surfaces in Deadwater, the stakes grow ever higher.

Now I'm falling for the predator who'd kill to keep me safe... and destroy himself in the process.

Kane's Prey is the second part of a high-heat, dark romance murder-mystery trilogy featuring a skeleton-masked crew, a mountain-built gangster with a locked-down heart, the sweet and stubborn woman he can't ignore, and the shadows tightening around the murkiest city on the map.

This story picks up where Convict's Game left off.
