by Zara Hampton Brown Sarah Bailey

4.3

The Four Horsemen—Drake, Francis, West, and Prescott—rule the financial world like modern-day gods. Forged in fire and blood, these four powerful men share a mysterious, shadowed history. For years, they were a quintet, joined by a girl named Scarlett, until she vanished without a trace, leaving behind only questions and dust. Now, Scarlett has returned to the city, seeking answers about a past she can no longer remember. While she arrives searching for closure, the Horsemen remember her all too well. Her reappearance at the doors of Fortuity signals the beginning of a dangerous game, as the men who once stood by her side now exert their control over the woman who—unbeknownst to her—wants them dead. *Carnage* is an intense, dark "why choose" contemporary romance that serves as a chilling retelling of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Featuring a complex mystery, high-stakes tension, and a gritty, twisted atmosphere, this story pulls readers into a world where power and obsession collide. With spicy encounters and evolving character dynamics, this series starter promises a tumultuous journey toward an eventual happily ever after. Please note: this is a dark romance; readers should check content warnings before beginning.

Dark and dangerous

Image 101: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars Dark and dangerous Dark. Dirty. Dangerous. This book. THIS BOOK! Carnage left me speechless. Absolutely speechless. Carnage is a deliciously dark, scorching hot book. If you're easily triggered, this is not the book for you, I'll say that right up front. But if you like your book boyfriends broken, ones who talk a little dirty, maybe even a bit psychotic, you are in the right place. It's easily one of the sexist books I've read. Losing her memory at the age of 16 due to an accident, Scarlett has lived the intervening 10 years in the country home of her adoptive parents. Living is a relative term, as we come to find out she was more of a prisoner. To gain her freedom, she makes a deal with her adoptive father to ruin the Four Horsemen. To do this, she must take employment at the firm the four horsemen own. To win the moniker of the Four Horsemen, each man would have to be ruthless, cold, heartless, without conscience and brutal. Prescott, West, Francis and Drake are exactly that. To be atop the world of finance, they're always multiple steps ahead of the competition - and their enemies. That includes the plans of Scarlett and her stepfather. From there begins a dangerous game of secrets and deceit. And sex and games. Carnage lays the foundation for all that is to come in the next three titles. Though we don't know the reasons for Scarlett's revenge, or how her accident took place, we know it's the event that started this journey. This ends on a huge mind blowing, cliffhanger. It left me speechless. Sarah Bailey rocked my world with this book. If you like your reads very dark and sexy, filled with mind games, ones that leave you without words and wondering what the heck just happened, this is the book, and series, for you.
