INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
From the #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author of the genre-breaking international TikTok sensation Butcher & Blackbird and Leather & Lark comes the final book in the Ruinous Love Trilogy--a friends-with-benefits dark romantic comedy packed with murder, mayhem, and spice.
God, I want to kiss her. I want to feel the heat of her lips against mine. Would she want that? Would she melt against me if she did? Or would the tension I feel between us snap and release something feral inside her? Inside me?
Doctor Fionn Kane is running from a broken heart, one he hopes to mend in small-town Nebraska, far away from his almost-fiancé and his derailed surgical career. It's a simpler life: head down, hard work, and absolutely no romantic relationships. He wants none of the circus he left behind in Boston.
But then the real circus finds him.
Motorcycle performer Rose Evans has spent a decade on the road with the Silveria Circus, and it suits her just fine, especially when she has the urge to indulge in a little murder when she's not in the spotlight. But when a kill goes awry and she ends up with a broken leg, Rose finds herself stuck in Nebraska, at the home of the adorably nerdy town doctor.
The problem is, not every broken heart can be sewn back together.
. . . And the longer you stay in one place, the more likely your ghosts will catch up.
Tropes: Friends with benefits / Small town romance / Fish out of water/ Forced proximity / Hurt/care / Touch her and die

Scythe & Sparrow is the third book in this twisted love story. I started this series with a romance in mind. But it is so much more. You will laugh, cry, laugh some more, and be surprised at some of the twists and turns. But it is well worth your time. It's even better on Audible.
It is hard to believe the trilogy is complete. I have loved all three books. Reading and listening to the Kane brothers finding their match has been an adventure. Rose and Fionn had to me a less adventurous uniting then the other couples. Although I think Rose has more trouble than Lark and Sloane. This book did feel like it has a healing or a closing the loop vibe. I enjoyed it so much - I would rank it second in the trilogy.
Omg this has been one of my favorite books I’ve ever read!!!I think I managed to read it in less than 24 hours!! I love how all the stories went together but they weren’t repetitive at all!!! And I definitely hope there’s more of these!!!
Scythe and Sparrow by Brynne Weaver is pure chaotic brilliance wrapped in sharp wit and delicious tension. I absolutely loved the banter, the humor, and the downright addictive dynamic between the main characters. The comedy hit every mark — dark, clever, and never overdone — and it perfectly balanced the book’s grittier, more intense moments.The character chemistry? Off the charts. Their push-and-pull had me grinning, blushing, and kicking my feet. Every conversation felt like verbal foreplay, layered with emotion, sarcasm, and just enough vulnerability to make me swoon.Brynne Weaver has such a distinct voice — irreverent, sharp, and full of heart. Scythe and Sparrow somehow made me laugh, ache, and fall completely in love with death incarnate and his very inconvenient feelings.If you love morally gray characters, unhinged flirtation, and banter that bites (in all the best ways), read this book immediately.
I love this trilogy and this book is just as amazing as the other 2 in the series! The Kane Brothers and their FMCs are great with their witty banter and their personalities. Perfection!
