Bound by Butchery | Hardcover [PREORDER March 2027]
$55.00 AUD
Former billionaire playboy-turned-philanthropist, Julian Fowler, is struggling with the upcoming anniversary of his parents’ murder, the most brutal massacre in the city’s history…with Julian as the sole survivor. Three years later, the killings have started up again with a new list of targets.
Mysterious psychopath, John Smith, has admired Julian from afar and offers him an opportunity to unmask the so-called vigilante devouring the rich. But John’s real goal is mayhem. He would gladly burn the city to ashes if it awakens the monster inside Julian.
The pair are drawn into a precarious game of chaos as they unravel each other’s pasts. John leaves a trail of bodies across the city, carving love letters in corpses for Julian to follow. Julian finds himself spiraling down the twisted path John has laid out, unable to decide if he wants to kiss or kill the maniac.
A sizzling MM dark romance with wicked humor, delicious banter, and the perfect amount of flirting while fighting. This is for the readers who like morally grey men that lean into their absolutely chaotic side.

ABOUT US
Your favourite bookstores, favourite bookstore
Launching in June 2024, Swoon Bookstore started life as a retail indie bookstore with a focus on Queer titles and Australian authors. We created a steady community and began to dabble in bespoke pop up events and small-run special editions to compliment them. The pivotal moment in the next phase of the Swoon Story began with the inception of our first, fully featured Special Edition Book Box, Hamartia by Scarlett Drake, which was released April 2025.
