Fresh out of high school, Corinne Westley is not the same person as she was going in. The promised pains of young adulthood had kneaded and threaded her emotions so thoroughly that there was almost nothing left of her ability to feel joy. So she decided to sever everything that tied her to Oakridge and leave north, to the secluded mountain village known as Blackpool. But once there, it seemed the chaos didn't cease to let go. The neighbors aren't who they appear to be and they warn her of the dangers her arrival set in motion. Spirits and demons inhabit the secluded mountain village and if she doesn't leave soon she may witness something even more terrifying-the immortal being that breeds bloodlust and mayhem. Millennia ago the being was exiled and sealed away inside the void between realms, but now the spirits are beginning to whisper about the creature's return. Corinne finds herself faced with an impossible choice: stay and witness something more terrifying than she could possibly fathom, or run away and disregard the threat awaiting them all. When the choice is taken out of her hands she finds herself working side by side with two people she doesn't entirely trust. Where Livia is cheerful and bright, Reed is dark and pensive, but both prove to be more powerful than she could have ever imagined. As she navigates her way through a world where demons and spirits reside, she finds that temptation isn't as easy to dispel when it's justified. Evil can never be eradicated and neither can pain, leaving Corinne torn between purpose, desire, and her own resolve. *This story is for fans of adventure and dark fantasy romance * *Also please be aware that these chapters are semi revised and might be changed at a later date.
