Some houses hold secrets. Cliff House keeps them alive.Caroline Oliver enters the crumbling mansion as a spy, seeking answers hidden for generations. But Cliff House is no silent ruin. Its walls breathe. Its shadows shift. And the moment she crosses the threshold, it's waiting for her. She thought she had seen it all in the world of corporate espionage, but she wasn't prepared for Edward Kelly: a man of unsettling beauty and impossible age, burdened with a history the world was never meant to know. The more Caroline learns, the more the house leans close, watching her, testing her, remembering her. In the tradition of the great gothic romances, Cliff House weaves forbidden desire with supernatural mystery. Caroline must confront the mansion's tragic past, the dangerous miracle that once birthed its hunger, and the truth behind the connection she cannot deny with the man who should not exist. Some doors should never be opened. Cliff House is one of them. This is the first book in the Cliff House Trilogy. I originally said the first and seconds books in the trilogy, Cliff House and Rum Runners, were standalone reads. I no longer believe that. They should be read in order, and all three should be read, or the emotional impact is lost. You can buy each one separately, or you can buy The Rum Runner: The Legend of Captain John Stewart. It is a three-volume omnibus edition. It is more cost effective to purchase the trilogy in one volume rather than in three. That definitive edition is the way the story was meant to be read. Thanks
