Houngan Love

(Unedited Version)

She thought leaving him would set her free.
Instead, it marked her for death.

After years trapped in a marriage built on cruelty, control, and unspeakable perversions, she escapes-only to learn the man she fled has decided she will never truly leave him alive. When his threats turn deadly, she disappears into Louisiana, hiding among moss-draped streets and whispered prayers.

That's where she meets him.

Quiet. Watchful. Dangerous in a way that feels... protective.
A man who walks with the spirits and speaks their names.
A houngan.

As fear tightens its grip and her past hunts her through the dark, she learns that some love is not gentle-it is fierce, sacred, and willing to stand between her and death. Drawn together by fate and guarded by the lwa, their connection becomes more than desire. It becomes survival.

But when the man who once owned her comes to collect what he believes is his, she must decide:

Run forever...
or stand her ground and reclaim her soul.

Houngan Love is a dark romantic suspense about trauma, spiritual protection, and a woman who learns that love-real love-does not cage you.
It fights for you.
