Burnley Manor is a house which has been lost to time.
When Anne Montague accompanies her best friend on a trip to Barnet, the last thing she expects is to be catapulted into a love story that has spanned centuries. Her sheer presence in the house sets in motion events that are beyond her control, she feels things she cannot explain, knows things she couldn't possibly and people she had never met before recognise her. Before she knows it, secrets are unearthed that have consequences for her and all who reside at Burnley. And there is a small matter of a 500-year-old curse that threatens to destroy them all.
Can Anne save them before all is lost?

WHEN THE WALLS REMEMBER
Some love stories don't end. They echo. Seventeen years ago, Ellis Rook lost everything-his mother disappeared without a trace, and his first love, Maribel Vale, vanished inside his family home with a scream no one else heard. Now in his thirties, broken by time and haunted by silence, Ellis returns to the house on Granger Hill-the place where the walls still whisper and mirrors don't reflect the truth. But Maribel never really left. Letters begin appearing in her handwriting. Daisies bloom in rooms no one enters. And his reflection smiles when he doesn't. As Ellis unravels the house's dark memory, he uncovers a love story so powerful it defied death... and something else that came through the cracks with it. Something ancient. Something hungry. The deeper he digs, the more he realizes: She was never taken. She was transformed. And now, she wants him to remember. Even if it kills him. For fans of psychological horror, romantic tragedy, and supernatural suspense, "When the Walls Remember" is an atmospheric descent into grief, obsession, and a love that refused to die.Completa
Haunted Hearts
After losing three fiancés in tragic accidents over the past six years, Lady Elphi Matson knows three things for certain: heartache only maims its victim when it should kill, not all haunted places are crumbling castles, and without a doubt, she is cursed when it comes to falling in love. Able to see ghosts since surviving a drowning accident at age nine, Lord Rufus Treadway works as a Private Investigator of the paranormal. So, when his closest friend Lord Roderick Matson pleads for help solving Elphi's curse, Rufus agrees to attend the Sanham séance, promising not to let Elphi know Roderick hired him and, for his own safety, not to fall in love with her. However, just like curses, some promises are meant to be broken.Completa
