Toxic Tongue - Marla York

Some people find love in candlelit dinners and gentle touches. Isabella Rossi finds it in the taste of revenge and the watchful eyes of her history professor.

When a traumatic night at a college party shatters her fragile world, Harrison Irving is there-her stoic, tailored-suit saviour. He offers comfort, obsession, and a possessive love that feels like a sanctuary from her abusive past. Isabella is drawn into his orbit, a willing captive to his dark intensity.

But Harrison has a secret hunger. His devotion isn't just protective; it's consumptive. He eliminates anyone who threatens or touches what he claims as his own, filling his freezer with the consequences.

As their twisted bond deepens, Isabella discovers her own capacity for darkness. Shared trauma becomes a perverse language, and the line between victim and accomplice blurs.

When outside threats and the ghosts of their pasts conspire to tear them apart, Isabella must make a choice: flee from the only love that has ever seen her monstrous truth, or embrace it fully and become his partner in a buffet of carnage.

For fans of Hannibal and You, this is a visceral, sensuous descent into a love that is as horrifying as it is profound. This is not only a romance. This is a possession.

Touch her, and he'll eat you.
