I’ve always been uncomfortably close with death.
From losing my other half before either of us could drive, to my mother’s act of ‘mercy’ that nearly took me to my own grave with her, death has never been something I could escape.
Now, I work at Kindred Pines Mortuary, surrounded by the dead while haunted by the ghosts I can’t bury.
Somehow, he knows death just as well as I do. Maybe better.
When I discover that a local suicide was actually murder, I never suspect the killer is close enough to know who cried wolf. Not until he makes me part of his game—and forces me to play by his rules.
The more he pushes me toward my own broken edges, the more I realize how perfectly they fit against his. His obsession with death awakens something dark in me. Something I know I shouldn’t want.
Something I may never recover from if I let it take root.
Maybe after all these years of holding death at arm’s length, it’s time to stop fighting.
To stop fighting him.
And let him stoke the flames of my brokenness instead of trying to fix what was never right in the first place.
Melancholia is a dark MF romance standalone. It does not end in a cliffhanger, and includes content such as psychological horror, self harm, mentioned child abuse, and lots of topics surrounding death and dying. For a full list of triggers, please look inside the book.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
