A sexy and poignant new adult romance in the vein of Jamie McGuire’s Beautiful Disaster from New York Times bestselling author Marata Eros, Darkest Joy is a dark and emotional love story about two lost souls who find each other in the wake of tragedy—only to learn that love may not be enough to heal the wounds of a tortured past.
“I don’t want my broken fixed…”
Six months ago, Brooke Starr was one impeccable piano performance away from Juilliard. Now she is lonely, devastated, and orphaned—seeking solace in Alaska, a place where the sun never sets, as she struggles to recover from the grief and loss that shattered her heart.
There are no coincidences…
Deep-sea fisherman Chance Taylor never expected his life to change during a midnight stroll to the pier. But when he sees an intriguing, raven-haired girl swan dive into the frigid Alaskan sea, he plunges into the icy waters to rescue her—and feels an undeniable electric connection.
As their blazing chemistry intensifies, Chance is determined to save Brooke from her demons. But Brooke knows she must find her own footing. She believes she has already lost everything—until the terror of her past resurfaces and threatens all that she has left: her life, her love, and the fragile possibility of finding joy in the darkness.
