Ruby and Drayvex: Toxic But True (a Special Bond)

​‘The push pull relationship between Ruby and Drayvex is unlike any other I’ve ever read. Their unique bond tests the boundaries of toxic relationships in the most extreme ways.’ - Goodreads Review, 4.5/5

One spunky, reckless human. One sarcastic, devil may care Demon Lord. Two worlds colliding with hellish consequences… 

Ruby and Drayvex will always be special to me. So much so that penning their unique brand of tangled demon-human chaos leaves me both energised and utterly exhausted! Here are some of your favourite things about this dark duo:

    • Drayvex is unapologetically demon. 
      He’s a monster through and through; quite possibly the worst of the worst. He likes who he is. And his Demon Lord brutality is not diminished in any way by the ‘light-dwelling heroine’ who earns his grudging affection. His rough edges remain rough throughout their evolving relationship as it moves from enemies to allies and beyond. 
    • Ruby, despite condemning Drayvex’s villainous behaviour, accepts him just as he is. 
      She has a good idea of what she’s dealing with. She’s seen what this monster is capable of first hand. She knows he’s bad news and has the ugly scars to prove it. And yet she faces the bad with the good, the hell-raising tyrant and the redeemable rogue again and again, in a way that no other being would dare. 
    • Their relationship is as rough and gnarly as it is electric.
      This love-hate rollercoaster is all highs and lows, soaring and crashing from one end of the spectrum to the other. There’s no in-between. In fact, no two beings push each other’s buttons, or challenge each other’s perspective, in quite the same way as Ruby and Drayvex. But within this crazy predator-prey maelstrom is two people that need each other in a deep and oddly vulnerable way. Their relationship is as beautiful as it is deadly. No two people are as terrible, or as loyal to each other, as these two.

With every additional book in the Stones of Power series, Ruby and Drayvex surprise me in exciting new ways. As I write book three, I find myself veering in a different direction again, and I can’t wait to share it with you.
