PINK INK: A DARK ROMANCE
By Avina St. Graves

Art. Obsession. Murder. Forbidden Desire.

What happens when the man who inspires your darkest fantasies is hiding an even darker secret?

From bestselling dark romance author Avina St. Graves comes a dangerously addictive story of forbidden attraction, twisted obsession, secret societies, and a love that blurs the line between devotion and destruction.

Reyna has always been fascinated by death.

As a film student at the prestigious Cresswell University, she's drawn to the darker side of art, exploring the disturbing beauty hidden within violence and human nature.

But lately, something has captured her attention.

A serial killer is stalking the city.

His murders are carefully arranged, each crime scene resembling a haunting work of art.

While the authorities struggle to connect the killings, Reyna begins noticing a pattern.

The artistic details.

The deliberate symbolism.

The unmistakable signature of someone who sees murder as an art form.

Fascinated by the mystery, Reyna recreates one of the killer's crime scenes for a university film project.

What she doesn't realize is that she's presenting her work to the very man responsible for the murders.

Professor Maddox Shaw.

Brilliant. Brooding. Mysterious.

A world-renowned artist searching for the inspiration he's lost.

And a serial killer whose deadly work is tied to a powerful secret society.

Maddox is a man with dangerous secrets, and Reyna is becoming an obsession he cannot ignore.

As their forbidden attraction intensifies, the boundaries between professor and student begin to crumble.

But Maddox isn't the only threat lurking in the shadows.

The secret society controlling his life is willing to do anything to protect its secrets.

And when Reyna becomes entangled in their dangerous world, Maddox must decide just how far he's willing to go to protect the woman he refuses to lose.

For a man who has already crossed every moral boundary, love might be the most dangerous obsession of all.

PINK INK is a dark, provocative romantic suspense novel filled with forbidden passion, psychological tension, morally gray characters, and shocking secrets.

Perfect for readers who enjoy twisted love stories, dark academia, serial killer romances, and romance with a dangerous edge.
