The cover for Envy by C.L. Briar is here, and it is absolutely to die for. With a Gothic aesthetic that hints at deadly secrets and irresistible danger, this dark romance promises sin, steam, and suspense. Releasing October 28, 2025, Envy launches us into a world where the Seven Deadly Sins aren’t just metaphor, they’re men. And they rule everything.

If you love stories dripping with tension, secrets, and forbidden obsession, this one belongs on your TBR. I’m honored to join Sunny Babe PR and C.L. Briar in revealing this jaw-dropping cover today!

WHAT IT IS ABOUT

Evie’s new life at Grace University is supposed to be a fresh start. She seeks freedom from her controlling family. She also wants the chance to build something for herself. But she didn’t count on crossing paths with The Seven. They are a motorcycle-club-style brotherhood. They rule the school through fear and fury.

For him, Evie is the one thing that breaks through his ice. And for her, he’s the danger she can’t stop running toward.

In a world of masks, motorcycles, and mayhem, justice comes in shades darker than black.

WHY I CAN’T WAIT

I live for gritty anti-heroes and complex heroines, and Envy delivers both in spades. The cover alone screams dark romance with edge. It features snakes, skulls, and blooms. These blooms look ready to wither under the weight of secrets. The “touch her and d!e” trope? Inject it straight into my veins. This promises high stakes, emotional tension, and maybe even a little vengeance-fueled tenderness.

And did someone say “Seven Deadly Sins as motorcycle club royalty”? Yes, please.
