Hearth of the Exiled Goddesses: A Dark Why-Choose Gothic Romantasy

By Phantasm Hersall

A condemned shrine.
A mortal heir.
Exiled goddesses with claws, teeth, and very little patience.

Lucian Vale comes to a ruined shrine expecting nothing but rot and bad luck. Instead, he wakes something ancient. A black cat with gold eyes becomes a furious goddess of thresholds. A wounded white fox becomes a silver-haired temptation with secrets in her smile. And the deeper Lucian falls into the house's old magic, the more the shrine starts answering to him like it knows exactly what he is.

Now hidden doors are opening, divine hunger is waking, and the women bound inside this place are no longer content to remain buried. But the house does not want a worshipper. It wants something far more intimate. And the closer Lucian gets to the goddesses he should fear, the more dangerous it becomes to tell where sanctuary ends and possession begins.

For readers who love:
exiled goddesses, gothic ruins, feral devotion, jealous immortals, sacred bargains, old magic, and why-choose romance with sharp edges and sinful tension.
