Crown Me Dead: A Dark Fantasy Romance (Heartstring Duet)

by Melody Lynch
Nicole thought she'd hit rock bottom. Then she fell for Jamison Carter.
The charming dealer promised her the world—designer clothes, a luxury apartment, and a way out of the strip club. But behind closed doors, the fairytale turned into a nightmare.
When Nicole witnesses something she shouldn't, she becomes a target. Running for her life, she stumbles into an abandoned art museum—and into the arms of three gargoyles.
Gabriel. Sebastian. Cole.
Stone by day. Predators by night. And they'll burn the city down to protect what's theirs.
Nicole never believed in monsters. Now she's claimed by three of them.

Nicole's growth is something I'm...

the concept is better than the content, but it’s a cool & quick read. i wish we could’ve gotten more details/info about the gargoyles & the lore behind them, especially since it’s a fantasy book. spice level is 2 out of 5. )
