The Seasons of Carnage Trilogy #1

Tourist Season by Brynne Weaver is a sharp, darkly funny romantic thriller that takes the “small town with secrets” trope and gives it a wicked twist.

The story follows a woman returning to her hometown only to find herself entangled with a dangerously magnetic man whose charm and menace blur the line between desire and danger. Weaver balances humor and tension with impressive control, crafting dialogue that’s quick, irreverent, and full of bite. The romance is equal parts chemistry and chaos; playful, morally gray, and deeply addictive.

Beneath the heat and humor, the novel explores vulnerability, fear, and the lure of losing control, all wrapped in Weaver’s signature wit and pacing.

A Breakout in Dark Romance

Readers and reviewers praised Tourist Season for its fearless blend of tones; romantic, sinister, and laugh-out-loud funny.

Many called it one of the most distinctive dark romances of the year, applauding Weaver’s ability to balance sharp banter with genuine emotional depth. The chemistry between the leads and the book’s subversive sense of humor have earned it a devoted online following, particularly among fans of morally complex love stories.

Critics have highlighted Weaver’s command of pacing and her knack for turning potentially disturbing scenarios into moments of vulnerability and insight, cementing her reputation as a rising voice in contemporary dark romance.
