About this book

His undead ex is hellbent on dragging him to a premature afterlife. It's my job to save him without getting us both killed.

Aster

I'm dead.

Or at least I was.

Until I got the opportunity to return to the life I was abruptly torn away from. It's a no-brainer as far as I'm concerned. I'm not done living yet.

The catch? Become a Soul Chaser. Hunt down the Horrors, deadly souls that escaped The Below, and return them to the depths where they belong.

My first assignment comes all too quickly, and I'm thrown into a dangerous world where a man's life is in my inexperienced hands. The Horror attached to Hudson Davis is particularly nasty, with a vendetta that even death didn't resolve.

Hudson is terrified, rightfully so, and if I'm honest, so am I, but there's too much on the line for me to back out now. Not just my continued journey in the Above, but the chance at something that eluded me my first go round at life—love.

To save Hudson, I have to face Malice head-on and not get myself killed. Again. If I'm successful, maybe the tormented and guarded man I'm quickly falling for can see how real our connection is, and I can make the most of my second chance at life.

Malice is book one in Soul Chasers, an MM paranormal romance with dark themes, mid-level relationship angst, and spice. In Malice, you can expect a traumatized writer afraid of trusting anyone new, a newbie Soul Chaser recently returned to life (with just a few strings attached), a cast of dead and undead characters, two opposites forced together against a malicious entity, the steamiest revenge, and a love that overcomes all odds. The majority of this book takes place in a contemporary setting.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure I'd like this book. Then I got completely sucked into the first chapter and was immediately hooked. The concept was different than what I've been reading, and the writing was exceptional! If you liked this book, you'd probably also love Amithia Raine. Or if you like AR, you'd love this. Very well-written book and a super fun read! ) 2 people found this helpful

Sweet love

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶️🌶️ Aster and Hudson are so sweet. It’s something always love about Mia Monroe characters. With everything that Hudson goes through with his ex, I truly believe Aster was just what he needed. You know sometimes you just gotta get hit by a car and get taken below and be brought back as a soul chaser to find love. It’s just a simple things. The pacing was really good. The spice scenes, even though very cut and paste were nice to read. Decide characters were some of my favorite Hudson...

Eternal Love!

Strong from the start

Aster and Hudson are fun and cute together. I think that their story grabs your attention from the beginning and doesn't let you go. Aster had a rough beginning, but his new start will save Hudson from the horrors of his past. Hudson thought he was finally free from his nightmare, but when things start happening again he has to rely on a stranger to save him. Aster and Hudson have a lot going on with them and a lot to overcome. These guys make new friends, learn new skills, and find new love. I...
