Peony never meant to run—but when a harmless tattoo appointment in Tampa turns into a nightmare of unknown messages, voyeuristic threats, and a terrifying break-in, escape becomes her only option.

Driving cross-country in a Barbie-pink Jeep, Peony is determined to outrun the danger stalking her every mile. Someone always seems to be watching. Someone knows where she stops. Someone knows what she’s wearing. Someone wants her terrified… and wants her alone.

What Peony doesn’t know is that she’s not the only one following the trail.

Fischer has spent years tracking the monster the media calls the Scottsbluff Strangler—an elusive killer with a taste for vulnerable young women and a signature calling card. When Fischer crosses paths with Peony at a roadside motel, he recognizes that she isn’t running from bad decisions—she’s running from someone. Someone he’s been hunting. Someone who’s been hunting her.

But trusting the tattooed stranger with a gun and a storm in his eyes might be just as dangerous as whatever waits in the dark behind her.

Dangerous obsession. Relentless pursuit. A tangled road trip across America where love and fear blur into something combustible.

He shouldn’t want her.

She shouldn’t trust him.

But sometimes the most dangerous place to be… is alone.

Dirty, dark, and wickedly romantic—Dirty Dangerous Love pushes desire into the heart of true danger.
