RAVENSHADE

Some houses don't let go of what they love.

When 24-year-old Amelia Hart inherits Ravenshade Manor - an isolated Victorian estate deep in a forgotten forest - she expects dust, debt, and a quick sale. What she finds instead is a house that watches her. Portraits that turn to follow her down empty halls. Locked doors that open on their own. And a whispering in the walls that sounds, some nights, almost like grief.

Then there's Adrian Blackwood.

Handsome, magnetic, and impossibly kind, Adrian appears whenever Amelia is in danger - and vanishes just as quickly. No one in the nearby village remembers him arriving. No one can say where he lives. And the more Amelia falls for him, the more she uncovers a truth the village has spent generations trying to forget: four women loved Adrian Blackwood before her. All four are buried within sight of his garden.

As Amelia digs deeper into hidden journals, a locked room behind the library shelves, and a century-and-a-half-old curse laid on the Blackwood family by a woman they wronged, she learns that the debt isn't finished - and that loving Adrian may be the very thing that gets her killed.

But Amelia isn't willing to become the fifth name on a gravestone. She's determined to break a curse that has outlasted four lifetimes of fear - even if the price of breaking it is the one thing she's not sure she can survive giving.

Ravenshade is a slow-burn Gothic horror romance about love that survives being looked at honestly - atmospheric, haunting, and driven by a heroine who refuses to let fear write the ending for her.
