Two Gothic Reads for Autumn
Curl Up with a Deliciously Atmospheric Story
Sullen skies. Creaking tree branches. Leaves falling to their death. Honestly, there’s no better time to heat a mug of cider and hunker down beneath a wool blanket for a perfectly mysterious tale. And guess what? I happen to have a few to recommend.
Miri Brayden teeters on a razor's edge between placating and enraging her brother, whom she depends upon for support. Yet if his anger is unleashed, so is his madness. Miri must keep his descent into lunacy a secret, or he'll be committed to an asylum—and she'll be sent to the poorhouse.
Ethan Goodwin has been on the run all of his life—from family, from the law ... from God. After a heart-changing encounter with the gritty Reverend John Newton, Ethan would like nothing more than to become a man of integrity—an impossible feat for an opium addict charged with murder.
When Ethan shows up on Miri's doorstep, her balancing act falls to pieces. Both Ethan and Miri are caught in a web of lies and deceit—fallacies that land Ethan in prison and Miri in the asylum with her brother. Only the truth will set them free.
A Heart Deceived is available at Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
