A love lost to time. A curse that won't let go.
When Lena Whitmore moves into the crumbling Whitmore Manor, she doesn't expect much---just another fresh start in a town that barely feels like home. But the moment she steps inside, the past begins to creep in. Whispers in the halls. Shadows that move when no one's looking. And dreams of a man with storm-gray eyes who feels achingly familiar.
Then she meets him---Elias Blackwood. A ghost bound to the manor, cursed to fade if she can't uncover the truth of what happened to him. He swears they've met before, that she once loved him in another life. And as her dreams turn into memories, Lena begins to believe him.
But someone doesn't want her to remember. Someone is willing to do anything to keep Elias trapped in his endless torment. The closer she gets to unraveling the past, the more she risks becoming part of the haunting herself.
Because love might be eternal... but so is the curse.

Perfect for fans of gothic mysteries, forbidden romance, and star-crossed destines, this tale will pull you into the shadows of the past---where love and tragedy walk hand in hand.
