DELUXE EDITION--a deluxe hardback edition featuring stenciled edges, a foil case stamp, exclusive endpapers, and a detailed map. Blackthorn is a brand-new, tautly-written, deliciously gothic romance where A Discovery of Witches meets The Haunting of Hill House by New York Times bestselling author J.T. Geissinger. The return of a prodigal daughter. A mysterious town and even more mysterious house. Buried secrets. A missing body. Feuding families. And a truth so explosive, it could destroy them all. Twelve years ago, Maven Blackthorn fled her small hometown, leaving behind the wreckage of her mother’s suspicious death. In New York City, she built a new life—one without the shadows of the past and the whispers of “witch” that always haunted her. But now, drawn back for her grandmother’s funeral, Maven and her daughter, Bea, step onto Blackthorn soil once more, only to find themselves thrust into a fresh nightmare: her grandmother’s body has vanished. The Blackthorns immediately suspect the Crofts—the ruthless titans of Croft Pharmaceuticals, whose bitter blood feud with the Blackthorns has spanned generations. But when Maven comes face-to-face with Ronan Croft, the son of her mother’s suspected killer and the only man she ever loved, the past and present collide with explosive consequences. As long-buried family secrets claw their way to the surface, betrayal lurks behind every whisper, and old vendettas ignite anew. The deeper Maven digs for answers, the more dangerous the game becomes. And in a town where the dead won’t stay buried, neither will the truth—no matter who it destroys.

Bad men, worse sex—it’s a cycle Sable’s done pretending is worth the effort. She’s had pelvic exams more swoon-worthy than half her hookups, and honestly, a life of cold noodles and battery-operated plastic seems more appealing. Until Saturday night. Her new neighbour, Noah, is all nerves and apologies—until they fall into bed and he gives her the kind of night she didn’t think existed. One night, one man that finally delivers, and suddenly she’s hooked in a way she didn’t see coming. Except there’s a problem. Noah isn’t just her neighbour. Come Monday morning, he’s wearing a tie in the worst place possible. Behind a desk. At her office. She swears it has to be a one-off. But he doesn’t want to let go—not when she made him feel the way no one else ever has. Not when she stripped him down to nerves and need, begging for more. And the way he looks at her, like he’d hand her the reins just to stay in her orbit, makes her wonder if crossing every line might be exactly what she wants. ____________________________________ Crawl For Me is a standalone spicy novella.
