"Thrill of Fear"

Featuring two people who were never meant to meet, The Harpies is a dark twist to the classic Romeo and Juliet. If you're looking for a dark romance story with a deep plot and intricate twists, The Harpies is the series for you! This is a world where no one can be trusted, not even your own family. KATE I have always tried to be a good girl and live up to my family's impossible expectations. Never ask questions about my birth father, never discuss the dark-clad men haunting my dreams, and never go to the exclusive clubs owned by the Lawrences. When I meet Jack Lawrence at a speed dating event, he's everything my mother warned me about – everything I've been denied my whole life. When I've finally found someone who understands me, the temptation to explore the forbidden is impossible to resist. But how could I have known letting him fulfil my fantasies would start a war? JACK The Harpyiai order values honour and purity above all. My father broke our traditions by having his illegitimate son trained as a Marquis. I'm the reluctant heir to his legacy, our family's wealth, and the Harpyiai castle, but now I live in hiding. Only one unbreakable rule keeps me safe: I cannot dishonour myself by coupling with an illegitimate. Then, a dark-haired beauty catches my eye, and I must have her – even if she's forbidden. Thrill of Fear is the first book in The Harpies series. This is a dark secret society, contemporary forbidden romance with mafia elements and is meant for a mature audience only.
