The Mark Wakes
Scarlett Guidry went west to put distance between herself and Dust Creek Road. The mark followed.
In an Oklahoma motel, her palm begins to burn, the mirror moves on its own, and a compass that has pointed west for months suddenly points down. Across the road, a hardware store carries a family name her mother never properly explained-and a brass key bearing the same broken-circle symbol in Scarlett's skin.
Beneath the store waits a buried gate built around debts no living person agreed to pay.
To stop it from deciding who is hand, key, or sacrifice, Scarlett must untangle two families' versions of the truth before the mark turns inheritance into destiny.
The Mark Wakes is Book Two of The Long Bloom, a Southern Gothic dark-fantasy romance of haunted bloodlines, dangerous thresholds, and the cost of being made useful by someone else's history.
