In this haunting journey into the confusion and desires of growing up, a therapist reluctantly returns to her hometown, where she revisits the memories that could reveal what really killed her best friend all those years ago.
Devon Mayes thought she was done with the small conservative town she once called home. She fled when she was eighteen after her best friend Summer took her own life, leaving Summer’s twin brother, Keaton, lost in his grief. But when tragedy strikes again, Devon has nowhere to turn but back to the place that first broke her heart.
Being back in Arkana means struggling with the old guilt that shrouds her bisexuality and her feelings for Keaton. There’s so much she’s still hiding from him—and so much of their shared past that’s now resurfacing.
It’s not long before Devon has reason to believe Summer’s tragic death wasn’t suicide after all. Summer had secrets, too…and she wasn’t the only one who didn’t want them exposed.
As Devon and Keaton piece together the mystery of what happened that fateful summer, they must reckon with their own truths before they can move forward. But one person will do whatever it takes to stop them.

“A sultry, immersive thriller about the impact of deception: the lies of religious fundamentalism, the lies our loved ones hide behind, and the lies we tell ourselves. Levy deftly explores the complexities of teenage love, burgeoning sexuality, spiritual trauma, and survivor’s guilt—with enough suspense to keep you constantly on edge. This one’s a scorcher.”—Amy Suiter Clarke, author of Girl, 11, and Lay Your Body Down
“An utterly unputdownable read that hurts and heals in equal measure. This Violent Heart is not just a twisty thriller but also a poignant, nuanced deep dive into identity, sexuality, and belonging.

Powerful, intense, and wholly addictive.”—Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of Till Death Do Us Part and The Girls Are All So Nice Here
