Kiss. Kill. Repeat

Cade Carpenter doesn't believe in fate-he believes in timing, precision, and clean exits. Killing people is easy. Keeping feelings out of it is even easier. When a dating app ping interrupts his latest job, he doesn't think twice before answering. One bad date is the perfect cover for a hit.Tris is a walking diagnosis wrapped in a pretty face and borrowed confidence. He talks too much, laughs too loud, and blurts out every intrusive thought that crosses his mind. He's used to being "too much" for people-too awkward, too intense, too everything. So, when a gorgeous stranger actually says yes to his ridiculous question about the world's worst date, Tris can't help but hope, for once, that he won't be the punchline.But what's supposed to be an ironic night out turns into something out of a true crime documentary when Tris stumbles upon Cade mid-kill. Now, there's a body, a locked ship in open water, and two men with dangerously bad timing.It was supposed to be easy. Get in, get out. But now, they're trapped on a Titanic replica with a dead body and no place to run. Can Cade convince Tris that just because he's a killer doesn't mean he's not the one?Killer Crush is the first in a series of interconnected dark romance shorts, each featuring a new couple brought together-and blown apart-by the infamous Heartstopper app.
