Death Is Only The Beginning: Explicit: Book 1 in The Goddesses in the Moon Series

By: Warmerdam, Acacia

What if the love story that haunts you... wasn't your own?

milia Reinhart has always felt like a stranger in her own skin, born into privilege in the 1950s, yet bound by duty, fractured memories, and a strange pull to the moon. When a forgotten book resurfaces in her family's estate, it doesn't just whisper secrets; it reveals a story that isn't hers. A goddess buried by time. A forbidden romance written in blood and desire. A haunting echo she cannot ignore.

As the visions of myth bleed into her reality, milia's own life begins to unravel. Caught between the weight of her past and the temptations of her present, she finds herself drawn once more to Dawson, her childhood friend, her anchor, and the one man she was never meant to love. Their bond is dangerous, intoxicating, and impossible to resist.

This is not an epic of kingdoms and quests; not yet.

It is an intimate, open-door romantasy, where romance comes first, fantasy lingers in the shadows, and every page burns with longing, betrayal, and fate. Slow to build, impossible to forget.

Slow burn, explicit romance
Childhood friends to lovers
Stepbrother tension & second chances
Dual timelines of myth and memory
Love written in blood, sacrifice, and desire

Death is only the beginning. But love? Love refuses to die.
