When brooding heir Rowan Hart steps into storm-battered Blackthorn Manor to erase his father’s debts, the walls begin to whisper. On the cliffs, lighthouse keeper Elowen Gray guards the coast’s stories with a red-lantern gaze—and a rule: if they touch, they tell the truth. Drawn together by an impossible pull, they stumble on century-old letters, a locket that still smells of violets, and a ledger inked with sins the sea never forgave.
As tides rise and strangers circle, the manor breathes, mirrors fog with messages, and the lighthouse remembers names. To save the living and set the lost to rest, Rowan and Elowen must drag the truth from the water, defy a charming predator who wants the house for darker tides, and choose a haunting they’ll never want to escape.
Moody, sensual, and salt-stung, Haunted By The Kiss is a fiercely romantic gothic about devotion, restoration, and the cost of keeping the light on—no spoilers, only the promise of a truth worth earning.
