Description: A town bound by magic. A love bound by blood. A choice that could damn them both.

Mirafail is a town built on beauty, tradition, and secrets. Maeve Keeling has always believed in its charm, until people begin to disappear and suspicion creeps closer to home. As whispers spread and fear takes hold, Maeve is drawn into a mystery that refuses to stay buried.

Then Dante Trevil arrives.

Refined, distant, and dangerously alluring, Dante awakens a desire Maeve can’t ignore. Beneath his careful control lies a power tied to Mirafail’s fate, and a bond to an immortal master he cannot easily break.
Falling for him could be her greatest mistake… or her only chance to save the town.

Mirafail’s prosperity was forged through rare wine and an ancient bargain, one set to be fulfilled at the annual masquerade. If Maeve can’t unravel the spell in time, the town will be lost. If Dante dares to defy the blood bond that enslaves him, love may demand the ultimate sacrifice.

In Mirafail, love is dangerous, desire is a risk, and some kisses are worth dying for.

A dark gothic romance inspired by The Cask of Amontillado and The Masque of the Red Death.
