Drown for Me
In Mercy, the lake keeps its dead. And every dry year, it gives one back.
Wren Calloway came home for five days - to bury her grandmother, sell the lake house, and never set foot in the valley again. Then the water started falling, a drowned town surfaced in the reservoir, and a body washed up on the church steps with its lungs full of a lake half a mile downhill.
Silas Crane is the man the whole town crosses the street to avoid. The drowned man's blood. The one they're all sure will let Mercy drown when the water finally runs out. He's also the only person who tells Wren the truth: something is climbing up out of the lake, it has a sixty-year debt to collect, and her family's name is at the top of the bill.
The cure is buried with the crime. To break it, a Calloway has to go willingly into the rising water - and trust a Crane to bring her back up. Trust the one man the curse can wear like a glove. The one whose hands it wants on her when she goes under.
Drown for Me is a full-length gothic slasher romance: a feral, devoted antihero; a heroine who refuses to run; a small town built on a lie; and a love story that has to outlast a hundred years of buried sin. Standalone with a guaranteed HEA. Series continues in Drowning Mercy Book 2.
Contains genuine horror, on-page peril, and open-door romance. Full content warnings inside.
