Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy dark romance where the line between obsession and love blurs, and you're drawn to morally grey characters rather than traditional heroes.
  • You like atmospheric gothic settings with genuine menace, where a house becomes as much a character as the people trapped inside it.
  • You're happy to read dark content if it serves the story, and you don't mind cliffhangers that leave you desperate for the next book.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You need your protagonists to make choices you'd respect, or you find psychological manipulation difficult to read as romantic tension.
  • You prefer standalone novels or neat resolutions, because this book cuts off mid-story and demands you buy book two to know what happens.
  • You want cosy gothic or paranormal mystery with lighter stakes. This is psychological thriller with genuine danger and controlling behaviour as the central dynamic.

About this book

Adeline Reilly returns to Seattle for a fresh start, armed with a successful career as an author and inheritance of her late grandmother's gothic mansion, Parson's Manor. However, she soon discovers she is not alone in the house. While the angry spirits haunting the hallways are not her primary concern, mysterious break-ins, roses left behind, and threatening messages that sound like promises alarm her deeply. Adeline realizes she has a stalker. Investigating her family history, Adeline finds her great-grandmother's journals, which reveal that a previous family member was also pursued by a phantom and was subsequently murdered. The manor now contains not only Adeline's own memories but also the potential for history to repeat itself—unless she falls in love with her stalker first. This book ends on a cliffhanger.
