One night. One party. One house that doesn't sleep.
When Lila Carver agrees to a Halloween party to cure her writer's block, she doesn't expect to end up kissing the host - or running from the ghosts that come after.
The house on Orchard was supposed to be just another college legend. For Rowan Vale, it's a promise. One she made to her dying aunt to keep the house alive, to keep it fed.
But something went wrong.
Now, after the blackout, the whispers, and one impossible night, Lila can't stop dreaming about Rowan... or the walls that won't stop listening.
And when the house summons her back, she'll have to decide what's worth saving: her sanity, her story, or the woman who might already belong to something else.
A sapphic paranormal thriller about art, obsession, and the price of keeping a haunted thing alive.
