If you’ve found your way here, you probably like your romance a little darkerโ€ฆ a little sharperโ€ฆ and far more dangerous than it should be.

Good. You’re exactly where you belong.

I’m Nicole โ€” and I write about the men no one else would dare to love.

Assassins. Vampires. Warriors. Witches. People who live in the shadows and survive on instinct, who carry old scars, old grudges, and old vows they were never supposed to break. They don’t do anything softly. They don’t love safely.

But when the right person steps into their world? Everything shifts.

The Obsidian Syndicate was born from a question that wouldn’t leave me alone: What happens when the world’s most lethal men fall in love? Not sweetly. Not carefully. But fiercely, possessively, and irrevocably โ€” the kind of love that rewrites a person from the inside out.

These aren’t stories about being rescued. They’re stories about two people who are equally dangerous, equally scarred, and equally unprepared for what happens between them. The connection that builds in these pages isn’t delicate. It refuses to break โ€” even when it probably should.

Every book in the Syndicate stands on its own, following a different couple through danger, loyalty, and the kind of devotion that borders on obsession. You can pick them up in any order, but if you’re new here, here’s where I’d suggest starting:


A Vow of Blood & Vengeance A forced marriage. A centuries-old vendetta. A vampire who will burn the world to protect what’s his. โ†’ [Start here]

A Promise of Frost & Fury A second chance between a storm witch and the assassin who never stopped hunting her โ€” or loving her. โ†’ [Read next]


This website is my home base โ€” where I’ll share new releases, behind-the-scenes glimpses into the world-building, and the occasional deep dive into why we can’t stop falling for fictional men who are genuinely terrible ideas.

I’m so glad you’re here.

This is just the beginning.

Stay close.
