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

Wed me. Bed me. Slit my throat. And prepare for our favorite dark romance of the year to put you in a chokehold.

The Twisted Spine is incredibly thrilled to welcome bestselling author in conversation with Jaimee Johnson () for the tradional published release of CROWN ME DEAD and CROWN ME YOURS, the first and the final installment of The Heartstring Duet series!

About CROWN ME DEAD

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.

About CROWN ME YOURS

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

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, 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.


Event Photos

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.

Jaimee Johnson is the creator behind @thtgrlreads, where she spends an unreasonable amount of time talking about books, ranking fictional men, and trying to convince people that adding just one more book to their TBR is completely reasonable. She has built a space centered around romantasy, honest opinions, chaotic book conversations, and the shared experience of becoming emotionally attached to fictional worlds. When she’s not reading, she’s probably making a matcha, shopping for something she definitely doesn’t need, or cuddling with her two hairless and one hairy cat.
