Ever Dark : A Gothic Romance (Nocturnus Book 1)

Some towns have secrets. Ever Graves has something far worse.

When she arrives in the fog-draped, shadow-haunted town of Ever Graves, she expects a fresh start. What she finds instead are three men—Bones, Draven, and Aries—whose intentions are anything but innocent. They watch her. They want her. And they have no interest in being gentle about either.

But this enemies-to-lovers gothic romance offers more than brooding men with dangerous smiles. Ever Graves itself is a character—a place where darkness breathes and evil doesn't stay politely on the other side of the veil. The line between nightmare and waking life dissolves here, and she's been fighting that dissolution her entire life. Since childhood, a malevolent entity has haunted her sleep, threading through her subconscious like smoke through cracked stone, hungry and patient and utterly relentless.

Now she's caught between two hungers: the three wicked, obsessive men who are determined to claim her soul through sheer force of will and want, and the ancient darkness that has tracked her across years and miles to finish what it started.

M. Violet's debut in the Nocturnus series is atmospheric, deeply unsettling, and achingly sensual—a reverse harem dark romance that doesn't flinch from either its horror roots or its scorching tension. The corruption has already begun.

The only question is whether she'll survive it—and whether she even wants to.
