A cursed bloodline. A forgotten pact. A devil who knows her name. When Jerica Whitthorne returns to Briar's Hollow to claim her late grandmother's house, she expects peeling paint and bad memories-not a blood-deep curse that wakes the moment she steps onto the porch. The farmhouse she inherits isn't just haunted; it's alive, breathing with the remnants of a deal struck generations ago-a deal sealed in blood, fire, and whispers from the dark. Jerica has always been different. Fire blooms under her skin when she's angry, shadows bend in her presence, and mirrors crack when she looks too long. Now, the hollow calls to her like an old lover, and something beneath the floorboards stirs, waiting for her to open the door. Enter Oliver Crowe-mysterious, dangerous, and the only man who seems to know what stalks her bloodline. Together, they must uncover the truth about the Whitthorne pact before the thing that claimed her ancestors takes her soul-and her heart.
