SOMETHING IN ME BROKE AND I LET IT.
Six weeks ago, I watched the light leave his eyes.
Blood on the concrete. Rain trying to wash it all away.
They told me I survived. But I died in that alley too.
Now I pour whiskey before coffee. Sleep doesn’t come anymore, so I just wait for the damn shadows to tell me where to go next.
Everyone’s waiting for me to heal. I’m waiting for them to stop watching.
Then he showed up. And the worst part isn’t that he’s in my way.
It’s that he makes me forget what I’m becoming. What I’ve become.
But that’s the thing, it doesn't last. I always remember the blood.
So I’ve stopped waiting for answers that aren’t coming and turned this into what it was always meant to be. A hunt. An obsession. One I’m done pretending I don’t need.
I know I’m crossing lines, that I’m unraveling. And whoever I’m hunting, I’m pretty sure they know I’m looking.
I’ve seen what loss does. What it really looks like when it hollows someone out. I’m not gonna let that happen to anyone else. And if justice looks a lot like revenge when I’m done, that’s fine. I can live with that.
SO I STOPPED ASKING MYSELF JUST HOW FAR I’D GO.
THE ANSWER WAS ALWAYS FURTHER.
Part dark romance. Part noir. All obsession.
Memento Sanguis is a dark romance with:
It's Book One of The Memento Series.
No doubt, you've read romance that promises dark and delivers too mild.
You've read FMCs labeled as morally grey who make one questionable decision in chapter twelve and then apologize for it.
You've read slow burns that aren't slow burns at all, they're just books where nothing happens for two hundred pages.
This isn't that.
Memento Sanguis was written for those readers who've been screwed over by what a blurb promises and what that book actually delivers.
The atmosphere is heavy from the first page and it stays that way.
This FMC makes choices that'll make you uncomfortable and she doesn't walk them back.
The tension builds because every moment earns it.
If you've been looking for a book that actually follows through, well, this is it.
The MMC isn't the focus or the danger here. No captor, stalker, or mafia boss treating her obsessively and calling it devotion. Absolutely nothing wrong with those books, this just isn't one of them.
He's the one steady thing in a story where nothing else stays still. Not soft, not insecure, and not obsessive. He's just a guy who sees what she needs, doesn't try to stop her, and definitely doesn't leave.
If you've been waiting for that guy to show up in a darker book, he's here.
Memento Sanguis contains mature themes including graphic violence, explicit sexual content, substance abuse, grief, and more.

I was given this book as a beta reader and now I'm so excited about this author! This book is the best kind of raw, character driven story (did I mention the badass FMC) that really makes you question how far would you go?
I never wanted to put this down!
Sloane's inner monologue is everything!
Well, she doesn't just use her inside voice! Gritty, noir, filled with all the vices!
I do agree with the author, this is not like other books in the genre. It's kind of dark romance, but not. It's also noir, but not. It does it's own thing and I mean that in the best way possible. I didn't even realize how badly I needed and wanted this book until I started reading it.
Love it and highly recommended.
I just finished reading this book and seriously can't wait for the next one! It was so witty, sarcastic and raw! I loved the in-your-face character flaws of Sloane and felt like at times she was my spirit animal!
Two thumbs way up for this book!

Got questions? We’ve got answers!
Yes, in the general sense that matters. The themes are heavy, the FMC goes places and doesn't walk her choices back.
But, if by dark romance you mean a captor, a stalker, or a mafia boss, then no, this isn't that book. The darkness here is the world, the events, the trauma, and her. It's not the relationship.
That is the questions isn't it? He's not soft, insecure, or obsessive. He's actually the only steady thing in a story where nothing else stays still.
He's just a guy who sees what she needs, doesn't try to stop her, and definitely doesn't leave. If you've been waiting for that guy to show up in a darker book, he's here.
Somewhere between dark romance, noir, and romantic suspense. It's dark fiction that just does it's own thing. TBH, it wasn't written to fit a specific section on a shelf.
Short version: part dark romance, part noir, all obsession (hers, not his).

Yes. The complete book 1 story from start to finish.
Yes. Open door romance, no fade to black. But, the heat is there to bring out the natural flavours of the story, not to set your face on fire for no reason and ruin the meal in the process.
Let's say it's somewhere around a 3/5.
No, it's Book One of The Memento Series, a trilogy. Each book builds on the last, so reading in order is the move.
She doesn't write to tropes or lock a story into a genre box. The story is alive, and she just writes what it whispers to her, often over strong coffee.
Memento Sanguis is her debut novel. If you like your characters morally grey, your settings drenched in noir, and your tension wound so tight it hurts, you're in the right place.
