NOVL – Series Page – Heartstring Duet

Crown Me Dead

Crown Me Dead

by Liv Zander

THE #1 BESTSELLING DARK ROMANTASY LEAVING READERS WORLDWIDE IN TEARS. 

Wed me. Bed me. Slit my throat. 

Born in dirt, raised in rot, I dig graves for the dead, while the living decay around me. When my brother coughs blood, he appears. A man too polished for the graveyard, with a bargain too cruel for the light: Seduce the King. Become the Queen. Die. And my brother lives.

Kael is a nightmare of living ruin, the rotting ruler of a festering realm. And Vale is his shadow, the cold architect of my demise. One man needs my heart to beat. The other plans to stop it forever. They think I’m a pawn. But I’m the gravedigger’s daughter. And I know exactly where to bury them.

Welcome to the funeral.

Darkly seductive, beautifully written, and deeply emotional, the Heartstring Duet will sweep you away into a world of forbidden desire, deadly intrigue, shocking twists, and impossible choices. 

**Crown Me Dead is book one of two in the completed dark fantasy romance Heartstring Duet. Don’t miss book two, Crown Me Yours. The world contains deception, mystery, violence, dark elements, and mature content. What this book doesn’t contain is a hero (because villains do it better). You can find more detailed information at Liv Zander’s website.**

Crown Me Yours

Crown Me Yours

by Liv Zander

THE UNFORGETTABLE FINALE TO THE #1 BESTSELLING DUET THAT WILL WRECK YOU, HEAL YOU, AND HAUNT YOU.

Wed him. Bed him. Slit his throat.

I killed the king. Crowned myself in his blood, But the curse still festers.

To break it, I need Death, on his knees, a ring on his finger. My blade at his throat.

The god fights me to the grave, evades my touch, mocks my wanting.

He would rather tear himself apart than let me close enough to end this. But I didn’t come this far to lose. I came to crown him mine.

Welcome to your wedding, my love.

Darkly seductive, exquisitely written, and deeply emotional, the Heartstring Duet is a breathtaking tale of forbidden love, impossible choices, and hard-won hope that will break your heart and put it back together again. 

**Crown Me Yours is book two in the dark fantasy romance Heartstring Duet. The world contains deception, mystery, violence, dark elements, and mature content. What this book doesn’t contain is a hero (because villains do it better). You can find more detailed information at Liv Zander’s website.**

About the Author

Liv Zander has an unhealthy appreciation for sexy villains and loves writing deliciously dark fantasy romance about the men who would burn the world to the ground for their women. Is that counter-productive? Probably, but it’s also a lot of fun. When she’s not writing, she can be found procrastinating in her office with a mug of coffee or a glass of wine (depending on time of day and how miserable the writing is going). Oh, she also loves skulls. And ravens. And skulls. Visit her at livzander.com.
