Enigma

A Dark Academia Romance

De: RuNyx

Narrado por: Aiden Snow, Jaclyn Kelso

From New York Times bestselling author RuNyx comes Enigma, a twisted Hades and Persephone meets scorching dark academia romance―a tale of love and obsession between two rivals.

There are secrets she must uncover.

There are secrets he must keep.

Salem Salazar is fascinated with death. The black sheep of her scandal-ridden, wealthy family, she arrives at Mortimer University as a legacy on the hunt for answers about what happened to her perfect, older sister. There, she discovers that her sister is far from the only girl to have gone missing at Mortimer. Salem will do anything to discover what dark forces are killing Mortimer's students...even if it means using herself as bait.

And Cazimir van der Waal has caught her scent. The mysterious artist and teaching assistant has a dark past, a hidden agenda, and a ravenous appetite for a beautiful, golden-eyed girl who seems determined to risk her life.

Where she is ice, he is fire. Where she is organization, he is chaos. Where she is precision, he is passion. Together they are explosive―their fates linked as secret societies and death stalk them both.

Enigma is a sensual, epic love story for those who also crave the frightful, the puzzling, the suspenseful, the dangerous and the dark.

Welcome to Mortimer.

Such a mind gripping book!

The way Runyx writes can never do wrong in my opinion. I love the way their books capture your mind and make you resistant to putting it down before it’s finished. A 10 out of 10 for me.

dark academia perfection!

after gothikana i knew i was gonna love this story! a mystery suspenseful dark academia that had some spice! overall i loved it

Exceeded expectations

I’m not going to lie, after the last book I was unsure but I’m so glad I took the chance because this was great. The story was going at a good medium pace, I liked both the main and side characters.

Amazing!!!

Amazing incredible I absolutely love the story again Runyx has in a chokehold. I absolutely love all her books.

RuNyx does it again!

dark, mysterious, with an amazing love story. RuNyx has cemented herself as a must read author for me.

Worth the wait!

This was everything I hoped it would be , I couldn’t wait for the release and purchased the physical book as well as the audible , it’s everything you look for in a gothic academia romance , it’s dark, mysterious has characters you can care about a great mystery throughout and a mysterious dark hot MMC. Just wish it would have lasted longer , finished it too quick .

Dark Romantic Mystery!

I don’t know that I would call this a dark romance in the way I usually think of dark romance (HD Carlton type) but more of a Dark Romantic Thriller/Dark Academia. I really enjoyed the mystery and storyline. I like trying to figure out the pieces with the FMC. I loved the edging and the angst it was *chefs kiss*.

The darkness yet finding light

I couldn’t wait to find out what happened next. It kept me enthralled. I have already told all my friends to read it.

Had me hooked!

Cast did such a great job. I think their voices for the characters so well with how I envision them in my brain!

Hauntingly beautiful!

This is one of the most perfectly executed dark academia novel! It has creepiness, mystery, secrets, a sexy mmc, a haunted fmc, a dark atmosphere, two different yet deeply disturbing backstories, a few funny side characters, but best of all someone who understands what you hold inside, the unimaginable things floating in your head, just enough for someone to call you crazy or weird or strange. Enough to keep people at bay, but this story accepts the cruelty of the world and turns it beautiful. If you love a good mystery and some kinky scenes, a must read!
