Hunted Ruin

By R. Thompson

Brynn is sharp-tongued, anxious, and quietly unraveling. She hides behind sarcasm and a skeleton mask online. She is the type of girl that laughs at her own intrusive thoughts, who turns fear into punchlines and loneliness into armor. Beneath the humor is a woman haunted by her own mind. Restless, brilliant, and far too aware of how fragile she is.

Finian is a tattooed hacker and self-proclaimed screwup with a taste for pain and control. Finian masks his unraveling with charm, violence and viral videos. He's magnetic, reckless, and frighteningly self-aware. The kind of man that jokes about being a villain because it's easier than admitting he already feels like one.

They shouldn't work, but they do. Brynn hides her fear behind jokes. Finian hides his guilt behind chaos. She finds comfort in his darkness because it mirrors her own. He finds peace in her madness because it finally feels honest. Together, they are jagged edges that fit. Two broken minds that stop pretending to be okay when they are with each other.

Hunted Ruin is a dark psychological romance that blends grit, humor, and heartbreak. It has trauma, obsession, and blurred lines between connection and self-destruction. All through two flawed narrators who find each other in the dark and learn what it means to survive themselves.
