Tar City

Tar City is a dark romance with paranormal elements set in a cursed city.

"Say one more thing like that," he growls pulling my hair slightly, "and I'll bend you over the damn bike. Don't care who's watching."

  • “Ballerina, ballerina… No need to scream. When the lights go out and this city gets hungry, remember I’m the one who eats in the dark.”

    A dark romance with paranormal elements, for readers drawn to the viral stories taking over BookTok.

    Tar City chews people up and spits them out. Sometimes… it swallows them whole.

    Some say the city is cursed. Some say it’s just corrupt. Jax St. Clair knows the truth.

    Bartender. Biker. The man everyone warns you about. The only one who can control the thing beneath the streets—until it decides to control him instead.

    Because the tar doesn’t just run under Tar City. It runs through him too. And on full moons, it demands.

    Sisk was never supposed to come back. Not to him. Not to this city. But you don’t escape Tar City—not once it’s made a deal with you.

    Now the tar is rising. Jax is losing control. And Sisk is the one thing he won’t risk hurting.

    “It’s easy to criticize choices you never had to make.

    But I know exactly how far I’ll go for her.

    And this city?

    It’s counting on it.”

YOU ASKED FOR MORE. GET READY.

  • "I hope - HOPE, BEG and PLEAD - this is a prequel to a new book (series), because now it's just a tease of what could be. The premise is good, the writing is great and the narration is chef's kiss. I am not a big fan of single narration, but Jason Clarke's female impression is top-notch!"

    Goodreads

  • "Please turn this into a full book. Please expand. I liked the touch of magic. I loved the vibe of possible dystopia. More please. The narrator is listed as Jason Clarke. Please do a full book…with Jason Clarke."

    Goodreads

  • "This better be the introduction to a new series or I will be well annoyed. I need more to Sisk and Jax’s story. This little snippet was so good!! I have so many questions I’m antsy for more! Jason Clarke narrating is always a bonus in my “audiobook”"
