Summary: A dark, twisted romcom with murder, mayhem, and chemistry that could kill

Ezra
I didn’t come to the Sinners Retreat looking for love or anything remotely close to it, but then I met Kindra.

The connection? Instant. Electric. The kind of chemistry that shakes your foundation and makes you question everything you thought you knew.

And I know danger—I’ve built my life around it. But this? This feels like something darker. Uncontrollable. The closer I get to her, the harder it is to keep my past buried. Do I tell her the truth? That the man she’s hunting . . . is me?

I’m not walking away. Not when every glance pulls me deeper into this twisted mess of attraction and danger. I’m playing with fire, and I’m not sure we’ll both make it out.

Kindra
I came to this retreat for one thing—revenge. My brother’s killer is out there, and I won’t leave until I’ve dealt with him.

But then Ezra walks into my life, with his damn glasses, that stupid smile, and the kind of charm that makes me forget why I’m even here.

From the moment we meet, there’s this pull. I can’t focus on my plan when he’s around, messing me up with every look and word, making me want things I shouldn’t. And that’s the problem, isn’t it? Ezra’s too good to be true. Because the closer we get, the more I realize he’s hiding something big. Something that might destroy me.

Or will it destroy him?

Sinners Retreat is a dark romantic comedy with explosive chemistry, razor-sharp humor, and a love story that’s anything but safe. Packed with serial killers, forced proximity, and banter that cuts as deep as the secrets, it’s a dangerously good time.

Review: I am so happy this was my first read of 2025. It was cute, quick and honestly I wish it had gone on forever. I am so excited for book two to come out. I will never look at a pineapple the same again, IYKYK. While the names weren't my style I absolutely loved Kindra and her quirky not friend. I absolutely loved this book. It was a good mix of my boyfriend's favorite thing and mine. There were times that Ezra got on my nerves closer to the end but it is a quick read. Mostly because i absolutely could not put it down. I cannot wait to read more books by Lauren.
