*** GAME ON, the final book from the MULTI-MILLION BESTESELLING INTO DARKNESS series is OUT NOW ***

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

From the author of TikTok's favourite dark and steamy romance, Lights Out, comes Navessa Allen's second book in the New York Times bestselling Into Darkness trilogy
I want this woman, and I'm a man who always gets what he wants.

Nico 'Junior' Trocci knows Lauren Marchetti is off limits. Men like him don't get to have women like her. It's why he pushed her away in high school and still keeps his distance. But Junior follows Lauren online, and now that the shy, bookish girl he remembers is gone, he can't stop obsessing over the strikingly beautiful woman who has taken her place.

He's ruthless; a walking red flag. Good thing red is my favorite color.

Lauren 'Lo' Marchetti knows Junior is dangerous. He broke her heart once and she won't let him do it again. But as their flirtatious encounters escalate, Lauren starts to remember why she fell for the brooding antihero all those years ago.

As old obstacles resurface, Junior and Lauren are forced to face their true feelings for each other and decide just how far they're willing to go for a second chance at love.

Caught Up is a fast-paced dark romance with a morally grey male lead. Some themes and scenes may be disturbing to readers. Please check the content warning at the beginning of the book.

18+ mature content. Not suitable for younger readers.

Editorial Review

He’s a mobster. She’s his obsession
I didn’t think I’d fall this hard for Nic and Lo, but Caught Up pulled me in fast and didn’t let go. The story follows Lauren, a cam girl who’s built her life on her own terms, and Nico, the mobster who never really let her go even after betraying her years ago. What starts as an unwelcome reunion slowly unravels into something darker, deeper, and unexpectedly tender. The performances by Kasi Hollowell, Jason June, and Teddy Hamilton were SO steamy, making it impossible to stop listening. I wasn’t ready for how much I’d care about these characters. —Patty R., Audible Editor

Critic reviews

Everything a dark romance reader wants - a masked man, epic spice, hilarious banter, and a clingy cat named Fred
Lights Out is a sexy, laugh-out-loud read perfect for those of us with morbid sensibilities. Aly and Josh are just the right amount of unhinged to keep you turning the page. A five-star read
Funny and filthy . . . the dark rom-com of BookTok's dreams
Twisted, sexy, and fun, it's the perfect read for those looking to dip their toes into the darker side of romance

I didn’t realise the book would be so much sex. I got 100 pages in and was honestly bored of it being sex… pining, pining, more sex, sex work (we love), and repeat. The rest of the story may be great but not for me. DNF

Great performance

having loved her books Lights Out and Kings of Kearny I was so excited that I preordered this book. it has taken me almost a week to get thorough it. there's more smut than story and the characters don't really have any chemistry, they seem so 1 dimensional to me. However if you like books with more smut than story then you'll love this book.

not what I expected

Was a bit unsure about the voices at first, but they grew on me quickly and I loved the characters. I was smiling and giggling listening to this. It got a bit less interesting towards the end tbh, so not a full score, but over all a good listen. Was expecting a bit more of the... plot... to happen on the bike as well. Hehe
