Dancing prepared me for many things—but not for being stalked and devoured by The Dexter twins.The moment I agreed to enter the Hollow's Hunt, I sealed my fate. Now, I'm being stalked through this twisted labyrinth by not one but two predators who share more than just blood.
Ace watches from the shadows with calculating eyes that strip me bare, his methodical pursuit leaving me nowhere to hide. Every step I take, he's already anticipated. Every breath I draw, he's counting. His control is terrifying—and, God help me, intoxicating.
Then there's Cyrus, raw passion and barely leashed violence. Where his twin analyzes, he devours. His touch burns like wildfire across my skin, consuming reason and leaving only desperate want in its wake.
But it's what exists between them that truly haunts my dreams. The way they move in together, finishing each other's thoughts, sharing glances laden with secrets no one else is meant to understand. Their connection transcends brotherhood, slipping into something forbidden that makes my pulse race. They don't just share blood—they share everything. And now, they want to share me.
"You were made for us, little dancer," Ace whispers against my neck while Cyrus's hands grope my hips. "Running only makes the game more exciting."
As their dark world envelops mine, I'm faced with an impossible keep fighting against the current that pulls me toward them, or surrender to the dangerous ecstasy of being owned by both.
Because in this hunt, there are no winners—only survivors. And the Dexter twins have never let their prey escape.
Double Trouble is the third installment in The Hallow's Hunt Series, a scorching romance exploring taboo subjects that some readers may be sensitive to. There is no cliffhanger and a satisfying HEA.
Keira, Ace, and Cyrus are survivors. They each have suffered horribly in their pasts. Now each have made a life for themselves where nothing can hurt them again, or so they think. What happens when these three enter each others lives? Will they keep each other at arms length or let down their walls? As they try to get their bearings an enemy decides to attack. Will they get the chance to see where their relationship could go or will the chance be snatched away before they get a chance. I really enjoyed this book. Ace and Cyrus' story was not what I expected. Keira is a strong character and a perfect match for them. This book does deal with some dark themes so I do advise reading the trigger warnings.
Let me start off with saying CHECK YOUR TRIGGER WARNINGS!
This is the first book I've read by Selena Winters and let me say, it definitely left an impression! This also won't be the last one I read either! I'm hooked! I kind of went in blind on it, I basically only skimmed the blurb, but i would have read it anyway with the whole 'masked men'. IYKYK
The Dexter twins, the MMCs, Ace and Cyrus, have had their fair share of traumas starting from childhood, but have always stuck together through it all. At times I felt that it was almost to the point of being unhealthy, but as the story goes on I understood why and realized that I was wrong for the most part. The connection these 2 brothers have is uncanny. They are 2 halves of 1 whole. Totally in sync with one another to the point of being able to communicate just by a look, each knowing what the other is thinking. Possibly the twin bond thing?
Keira, the FMC, has also had traumas from a very early age. In and out of foster homes all of her life, she endured and survived what would have completely broken and shattered others.
Keira is a dancer and uses dance to express herself and to have complete control over it. One night after rehearsal, she returns home and checks her mail, only to find an invitation to something that she knows nothing about. A secret society/club if you will. She reads and reread information enclosed, and now is very curious as to what its all about. Little does she know, this will change the entire course of her life forever, as well as the Dexter twins lives.
I don't want to give anything away, as this is a book that you need to experience for yourself, but again CHECK YOUR TRIGGER WARNINGS!
Double Trouble absolutely proves that Selena Winters just keeps leveling up with every book she writes. Seriously—how does she keep making each one better than the last?! This dark romance delivers everything: why choose (yes, twins), masked men, primal play, and heat that is straight-up off the charts. But what really makes this story hit isn’t just the spice—it’s the emotional depth woven through all of it. Ace and Cyrus, the Blackwood assassins (and if you haven’t read the Blackwood Brothers series yet… fix that immediately), are perfectly in sync in every possible way. Their dynamic is intense, seamless, and honestly a little mesmerizing. Then you have Keira—a dancer stepping into the Hollow Hunt as prey—who brings both strength and vulnerability to the story. What really got me, though, was the backstory. The trauma each of them carries is heartbreaking, but watching them find healing, acceptance, and love with each other? That’s the kind of emotional payoff that sticks with you long after you finish the book. And can we talk about that tease of a possible spin-off?! The hints about the secret society that trained Ace and Cyrus have me very intrigued. I will be first in line if that series happens. If you love dark romance with high heat, emotional depth, and characters that burrow under your skin, this book is a must-read.

Loved the bond between the twins Ace and Cyrus - and claiming Keira after the Hunt just made their devotion to her and each other ten-fold! The Dexter twins were drawn to her to Keira at first sight, and she to them. They all had similar traumatic pasts, and just knew that they were what each other needed. The twins didn't hesitate to help her get closure and revenge! This book has it all - Selena never ceases to amaze me - the main characters' connection, the SPICE 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️, the action, and the three bonus chapters 🥵🥵🥵🥵!!!
I have absolutely LOVED the Blackwood Brothers series and every installment of The Hollow's Hunt series. I was thinking this one would be the last and very pleasantly surprised for the teaser at the end for Viktor and Theo's story. I DO NOT WANT THIS SERIES/THE BLACKWOOD BROTHERS-HOLLOW'S HUNT UNIVERSE TO END!!!

Keira has always had walls around her; her past has a lot to do with them. When she gets the invitation to the hunt, she decides to accept it.
Twins, Ace and Cyrus, have always enjoyed the hunt while there, and maybe have their prey for a few days afterwards. But when they hunt down Keira and sample her delicious body, all bets are off. They've never had this visceral reaction to anyone before. They know that a few days will not be enough after the hunt has ended.
Keira feels the magnetic pull the twins have on her. They see her, as she sees them. She knows their darkness, and it feeds something inside her. When her past comes to light, she needs to face it; she needs to feel free from the weight she has carried around since she was a child.
This book is action-packed and steamy from the start. It's another good story following the participants in the hunt. A great series overall.

This book... wow..... The devotion the twins have to Kiera after the Hunt was so amazing to me I loved how the twins were with each other from the beginning, you could tell they had been through some awful things in their past together and bonded in a way most brothers don't but that it make their bond stronger. The way that they could see Kiera's trauma from the beginning and still remained by her side, especially once finding out what the trauma was, stole my heart. The way they just want to build her up, help her be stronger in any way she needs it....amazing Give me some Dexter twins all day every day The bonus chapters...... talk about turning up the spice in just 3 chapters..... 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ I have absolutely loved this series so far and can not wait for book 4 with Theo!!!!.

Kiera grew up in foster care, and she now values her independence, not relying on anyone, because they will just leave. She’s worked hard to get her own dance studio, which is her life. She gets an invitation to the annual Blackwell Hunt, and she needs some excitement, so she signs the contract.
The Dexter twins, Ace & Cyrus, have hunted for the past 7 years by using and discarding their previous catch. No one has caught their attention until Kiera, who calls to them with her hidden darkness.
The three of them all fit with their broken pieces, and they learn together to trust again.
Throw in some revenge torture and Bratva posturing, and it’s a good time.

Double Trouble is a raw, adrenaline-filled descent into a twisted hunting ground of pleasure and pain. If you’re looking for a comfortable, safe story, keep running—the Dexter twins are on the hunt, and once they mark their prey, there’s no escaping their shared obsession.
Ace is methodical. Cyrus is unpredictable. They’re lethal. Their bond is unbreakable.
Keira is disciplined. Her soul broken by past traumas. This year’s Hollow’s Hunt isn’t just a maze…it’s a psychological challenge. Will she continue to fight the darkness? Or will she surrender to it?

Dancer Keira joined the Hollows hunt too loose her control, thats defined her very life and being, she wants to let go and be chased. what she couldnt have forseen was becoming the target and obsession of the Dexter twins Ace and Cyrus. Ace calculates and Cyrus devours, two sides of the same coin in sync with each other through everything and everyone, now they have their sights firmly fixed on Keira and theres no escaping the hunt or the twins. Well-written the story is fast paced steamy hot twist filled desires, trauma, why choose and more!
Being married to a twin, it's always a risk to read twin books. I loved their devotion and adoration of Kiera. How relentlessly they pursue and avenge her. The trauma that ties everyone together is dark, hurtful and life changing. The twins see a way to help Kiera close that chapter of her life and take full advantage of it. For me, the story was incredible, the characters were intense. I have liked all these books and can't wait for the next one.
Double Trouble: A Dark Romance (The Hollow's Hunt Book 3) Book 3 of 4: The Hollow's Hunt By: Selena Winters. Wow I was so looking forward to reading about the twins Ace and Cyrus Dexter. O how they are in sync with one another in many ways. Keira the dancer is more twisted in her needs watching the twins cherished her. It’s a must read . Phenomenal story ..
From the previous books in the series, there were hints of how good it would be and it didn't disappoint. The twins live up to the hype and Keira handles it. Like the series, it is full of spice. Some small issues but it very good overall.
