About the Vipers series

Vipers is Rina Kent's most recent completed dark-romance trilogy, opening with Beautiful Venom in 2025 and closing with Tempting Venom in mid-2026. Like much of Kent's catalogue, it pairs morally gray, dangerous leads with heroines who refuse to be intimidated, set within a high-stakes, power-driven world consistent with her other trilogies (Deception, Empire, Monster).

Published in quick succession across 2025 and 2026, Vipers is one of Kent's newest releases and reflects her continued output within the dark contemporary/mafia-adjacent romance space that made Royal Elite and Legacy of Gods breakout hits. Readers already following Kent's backlist will recognize the familiar trilogy structure: three interlocking books, each led by a new couple within the same dangerous world.
