MONOMANIAC By Raphaella Carver

In this gothic, dark romance, Raphaella Carver weaves the tale of a love that transcends Life and Death.

A woman with a gothic soul consorting with the dead.
A man with an untamable spirit executing his revenge.
What will come into existence when his obsession meets her absolution?

Throughout the entirety of her life, Ophelia Grimes has been familiar with death. Be it suffered at the hands of her bloodline, an ill-fated victim forgotten in a dusty file, or even her own, before a spiritual awakening. But no haunting or omen could have prepared her for him – the mysterious man who will steal her blood, her nights, and ultimately the veil that keeps her hidden from the affairs of the living.

Life, as Dante Malfermo knows it, is grim and immoral; his existence, a mission to avenge the memory of a past that now lies buried six feet under. However, no pact with the basement of the being could have prepared him for meeting the same phantom eyes that haunted his nights for years, along with the marrow of his blackened soul, and ultimately those that gave him meaning when all was lost.

A love born in tragedy is about to mature in blood, and both are powerless to resist its maddening roots. Especially when death follows close behind.
