Some loves are written in the stars. Others are written in secrets.
Colette Redcliffe has spent her entire life beneath the shadow of Redcliffe Manor, where family expectations are as suffocating as the Louisiana summer heat. The only place she has ever truly belonged is the ancient forest beyond the estate-a sanctuary of cathedral light, whispering oaks, and solitude.
Until the day she meets a stranger.
Lorde Sutherland appears in her woods as though he has stepped from a dream. Mysterious, intelligent, and impossibly compelling, he awakens something in Colette she has spent years trying to silence. With every stolen conversation and lingering glance, she finds herself drawn deeper into a connection that feels less like chance and more like destiny.
But destiny has a price.
As their relationship deepens, Colette begins to notice unsettling inconsistencies. Moments that don't quite fit. Conversations that feel wrong. A warmth that vanishes without explanation. And beneath Lorde's carefully controlled exterior lies a secret so extraordinary that it threatens everything she believes about love, identity, and the nature of reality itself.
Caught between desire and suspicion, Colette must decide whether the man she is falling for is truly the one she thinks he is-or whether she has become entangled in something far older, darker, and more dangerous than she ever imagined.
In a world of hidden truths, ancient mysteries, and impossible choices, love may be the greatest illusion of all.
A haunting Southern Gothic romance filled with mystery, family secrets, emotional tension, and supernatural intrigue, Cabalistic Love is perfect for readers who love atmospheric romance, dark secrets, and slow-burning love stories that refuse to let go.
