From the internationally bestselling author of How to Kill a Guy in Ten Dates comes a swoony killer romance in which fake dating turns deadly at a sinister couples retreat that just might result in cult chaos – for fans of Grady Hendrix and Brynne Weaver.

Laurie Hamilton doesn’t believe in love – but as a documentary filmmaker, she does love uncovering a scandal. So when she learns about Kindred Souls, an organisation claiming to counsel couples for a steep price, red flags flare at her. Could it be a scam… or a cult?

On a hunch that might get her killed, Laurie heads undercover with Connor Kincaid – a dangerously handsome podcaster and the one man she swore she’d never see again. Posing as the perfect match, they infiltrate a Kindred Souls retreat run by Cardinal, the enigmatic leader whose eerie charisma and devoted followers suggest there’s far more going on than relationship counselling.

Once inside, there’s no leaving. Surrounded by couples desperate to prove they’re soulmates, Laurie and Connor quickly realise the retreat isn’t about finding love – it’s about deciding who deserves it.

When things go from creepy to deadly, Laurie must decide who she can trust. Getting out alive is one thing, but what if she starts to grow feelings for the man she’s pretending to love? Urgh.
