Alternative text for cover: Cover of Hunting SeasonThe Seasons of Carnage Trilogy is Brynne Weaver's follow-up to The Ruinous Love Trilogy, moving from a family of serial killers to a single, escalating cat-and-mouse pairing set in the fictional town of Cape Carnage. Tourist Season opens on the anniversary tradition of Nolan Rhodes, who has killed a target every year since the hit-and-run that shattered his life -- and this year he's set his sights on Harper Starling. What begins as a hunt curdles into an enemies-to-lovers slow burn as Nolan and Harper circle each other, unable to tell where destruction ends and desire begins. Harvest Season picks up the fallout as new secrets surface in Cape Carnage, and the concluding Hunting Season flips the dynamic entirely: after her world is torn apart, Harper has one goal left -- killing Nolan Rhodes herself.
As with the Ruinous Love books, Weaver plays dark, violent premises for morbid comedy as much as tension, pairing serial-killer stakes with banter-heavy, explicit romance. It's the same dark-rom-com register that made her a BookTok breakout, applied to a tighter, single-couple story rather than an ensemble family cast.
Three: Tourist Season (2025), Harvest Season (2026), and Hunting Season (2027, concluding the trilogy).
Publication order: Tourist Season, then Harvest Season, then Hunting Season. It's one continuous story about the same couple, not standalone entries like The Ruinous Love Trilogy.
Not in plot or setting -- it's a separate series by the same author (Brynne Weaver) with its own cast, tracked separately on this site at the-ruinous-love-trilogy.json.
Hunting Season is scheduled for April 6, 2027, concluding the trilogy.
