THORNFIELD HOLLOW

A Gothic Paranormal Romance

Iris Thorne has spent her whole life believing her mother's family didn't exist. Then a lawyer's letter arrives: a grandmother she never knew has died, and left her an estate she's never heard of, in a county that isn't on any map she recognizes.

Thornfield Hollow is exactly the kind of house that shouldn't still be standing — ivy-swallowed, watchful, and very much occupied. The man who opens the door for her hasn't aged in a hundred years, cannot step past the property line, and already knows more about her family than she does. His name is Rowan. He is not human. And he has been keeping something sealed behind a locked door on the second floor for longer than anyone living can remember.

The deeper Iris digs into her grandmother's abandoned study, the clearer it becomes that her family's silence was never really about estrangement. It was about a bargain — struck generations ago, paid for in a currency no Thorne woman ever fully understood until it was her turn to pay it. Every witch in her bloodline who has loved Rowan has eventually lost him, or lost herself trying to set him free. Her grandmother tried. Her grandmother failed.

Now the thing behind the locked door is stirring again, and Iris has to decide how much of the truth she's willing to face — about her family, about the house, and about a man who has spent a hundred lonely years learning exactly how much it costs to let himself care about a Thorne witch again.

Thornfield Hollow is a slow-burn gothic romance about inherited secrets, the price of protective silence, and choosing to be brave enough to finally break a cycle a century in the making.

Perfect for readers who love their witchy family sagas dressed up in old-house atmosphere and candlelit longing, a story where the magic heals as much as it haunts, and the romance is worth every gothic shadow it walks through.
