Every house has a history. Claire Bennett's new one has a body count.
She bought the old Blackwood estate for the price alone — too good a deal to question, she told herself, ignoring every warning the town gave her. Three nights in, she understands why it was cheap. Something moves through the halls after midnight. Something that knows her name. Something that touches her in the dark and leaves her gasping, terrified, and wanting more.
His name was Edward Blackwood. He died in that house a hundred years ago, and he's been waiting in it ever since — not to haunt, but to find the one person who could finally see him, touch him, *want* him the way no one has in a century. He didn't expect it to be her. He didn't expect wanting her back would be this dangerous.
Because Edward isn't the only thing bound to this house. Something else died here too — something that doesn't want Claire falling for a ghost, and will do anything to make sure she doesn't survive long enough to.
The dead don't usually get second chances at love. Edward's not giving his up without a fight.
