Abigail and Jessie Edwards grew up in a house where love was a foreign language and survival was a daily battle. Their parents-violent, neglectful, addicts-left them with scars that ran deeper than the eye could see. Jessie, the older sister, was forced to become both mother and protector, shielding Abigail from the worst of their parents' wrath. But some wounds even she couldn't prevent. Then, one night, everything changed- A home invasion. A bloodbath. Their parents slaughtered while the sisters slept just down the hall. At the police station, still dazed and reeling, Abigail and Jessie met the last person they ever expected-Samuel Edwards, the grandfather they never knew existed. With a quiet intensity and an unsettling air of secrecy, he offered them a new life, far from the wreckage of their past. It seemed like salvation. But monsters don't just live in broken homes. They lurk in the shadows of new beginnings, wearing the faces of those who seem safe. Abigail finds herself entangled in the affections of two dangerously alluring boys-both haunted, both hiding unspeakable secrets. One is something not quite human, a creature of nightmares and whispered legends. The other? A killer, whose hands are stained with more than just metaphorical blood. And one of them... was there the night her parents died. As desire turns to obsession and secrets unravel, Abigail's world takes a deadly turn when she discovers she's carrying one of their children. The revelation sets off a chain of horrors, drawing the attention of something powerfully dangerous. Now, with forces beyond her control closing in, Abigail must navigate a web of betrayal, supernatural terror, and a love so toxic it threatens to consume her. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes-her past is far from buried, and the truth may be more monstrous than she ever imagined. Because in the end, some secrets aren't meant to be uncovered. And some love stories were never meant to have happy endings.
