An addictive Dark Academia Romantasy series
If you love the mystery romance of A Discovery of Witches and the Mayfair Witches, or dark academia investigations a la Ninth House and Crescent City, the Fatal Chemistry series is your next addictive read. Mixing up Enemies to Lovers, Forbidden Romance, and Slow Burn tension with a dash of humor - think Practical Magic, but with higher stakes.
About the Fatal Chemistry Series
From the sultry courtyards of New Orleans to the mysterious spa towns of Bavaria, follow the Frost family's stolen alchemy that turns emotions into weapons and makes grown men cry, whether with a burning need to tell the truth or inexplicable desire for persons they had previously no interest in.
Each book delivers morally complex characters navigating Gothic atmospheres where the only thing more dangerous than a potion gone wrong is falling for the wrong person.
The Saint and the Sorceress (Book 1, Novella)
A celibate seminary student haunted by hereditary madness discovers his grandfather's journal full of impossible alchemy claims. In sultry New Orleans, he seeks proof they're real—not insanity. But will he succeed when the sorceress who holds the answers is tempting as sweet poison—and she's been trained to use his hunger against him?
Unholy Chemistry (Book 2)
When two unequal allies flee to Bavaria's most prestigious university to prevent powerful alchemical records from falling into dangerous hands, they discover an elitist secret society's rising power threatens to weaponize their forbidden knowledge, forcing them to choose between destroying their heritage or using it to fight a greater evil.
The Accidental Alchemist (Book 3)
When a lonely and desperate chemist discovers the formula for love, she thinks she’s headed for her Happily Ever After. Instead, it’s a recipe for disaster – one that draws in a despicable detective and a killer who needs her for his sadistic masterplan.
In all stories, the alchemy that promises connection becomes the force that destroys it. And with these untrained and morally grey scholars dabbling in potentially fatal Taste Alchemy, every sip could be someone's last.
Perfect for fans of romantic fantasy and dark academia who crave:
-
Romantic suspense with morally grey characters and real consequences
-
Slow-burn fantasy romance where love means life or death
