Masquerade of Vengeful Hearts
(2026)(A book in the Once Upon a Midnight Dreary series)
A novel by Sara Sines
Under velvet masks and crimson wine, darkness waits to be uncorked.
Shrouded in beauty and riddled with secrets, the town of Mirafail hides its rot beneath rose-draped facades and sugared smiles.
Maeve Keeling knows its shadows well—but when patrons at her family’s restaurant fall ill and begin to vanish without a trace, something far older and darker begins to stir.
Then he arrives.
Dante Trevil steps into her world like a storm wrapped in velvet—elegant, otherworldly, and haunted. His charm is a blade cloaked in silk. He claims he’s here to help, but Maeve sees the torment behind his eyes—and feels the pull of something ancient and irresistible.
The wine that once made Mirafail flourish is now a curse. Each cask bears a dark enchantment, a centuries-old pact designed to enslave the town to the will of Dante’s immortal sire. Bound by this legacy, Dante is both prisoner and pawn—dragging Maeve closer with every breath.
As the masquerade ball approaches, the final cask waits beneath candlelight and chandeliers. If Maeve cannot break the spell, the town will fall. If Dante cannot sever the bond that binds him, she may be the final sacrifice.
In Mirafail, love is no sanctuary—it is a slow, exquisite curse. And the last kiss may come laced with poison.
A dark gothic romance inspired by The Cask of Amontillado and The Masque of the Red Death, this haunting tale is perfect for fans of Gothikana by RuNyx and Eve Silver’s Dark Gothic series.
