FALL IN LOVE WITH THE ULTIMATE ENEMIES-TO-LOVERS ROMANTASY

'Enchanting and deeply romantic' REBECCA ROSS

CRIMSON MOTH is published as HEARTLESS HUNTER in North America.

The only thing more treacherous than being a witch is falling in love…

A HUNTED WITCH

The revolution reigns. The witches who once ruled are hidden, hunted. Rune is one of them.

A socialite by day, she is the Crimson Moth by night. A vigilante bent on saving her own, her next rescue demands she court Gideon Sharpe – a notorious witch hunter and unforgiving revolutionary.

A WITCH HUNTER

Gideon will pursue the Crimson Moth to the ends of the earth, and her trail leads him to Rune. But beneath her façade might be his match.

Except what if she’s the very villain he’s been hunting?

Critic Reviews

'Enchanting and deeply romantic, The Crimson Moth drew me in with the first sentence and left me breathless by the last. A story that unfolds like a spell, and one that is destined to capture your heart' Rebecca Ross, New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals

'Kristen Ciccarelli bewitched me with raw storytelling talent! THE CRIMSON MOTH is a gritty caper and a delectable enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance rolled into one. From the high-stakes intrigue, to the rich world-building, to the enthralling magic system, to the toe-curling tension between two striking characters who are destined to be foes but can’t keep their hands (and hearts) to themselves—there is nothing about this book that I don’t fervently adore’ Thea Guanzon, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars

'A steamy game of cat and mouse between witch and witch-hunter, played out against a backdrop of opulence, secrets, and bloody history. I couldn't look away' Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Champion of Fate

'COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN…It’s the sexy witchy lady PIMPERNELL retelling we all deserve' Kester Grant, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Court of Miracles

'An enchantingly written, high-stakes romantasy with a pulse-racing plot – I was captivated' Natasha J. Hastings, author of How to Charm a Viscount

'A spell-binding fantasy romance with twists, turns, and an irresistible forbidden love. Between the intricate and unique magic system, an addictive enemies-to-lovers romance, and a stunning world filled with intrigue, Ciccarelli weaves a tale that is impossible to put down … I was left thinking about Rune and Gideon long after I turned the last page' Elizabeth Helen, author of Beasts of the Briar series

The dialogue, world building and character development surpassed everything I’ve listened to in this genre for ages. I’ve got a soft spot for cheesy books but sometimes the cringe is enough to make you not care about the characters. Not this book, the ending actually surprised me, I cried. Surprised this author doesn’t have more of a following. Can’t wait for book 2.

LOVED this so much. The magic system was unique but not complicated, the characters were loveable and the FMC didn’t annoy me. The conflict felt organic. Some great twists! Also really nice to have a spice scene that didn’t make me cringe!

How goods a good plot!

I couldn’t put this down. Really enjoyed the story and the narration was great.
I think what I appreciated most was how well the book handled some pretty dark subject matter. Very thoughtfully and respectfully (and heartbreakingly) done.

Excellent
