When I was three-years-old, I was found homeless in the woods, alone and feral.When asked how I survived all of those years by myself, I had one answer: the Shadow Man.I have no memory of that time. No memory of anything, really, before the accident. I rely on stories from my fathers about this supposed imaginary friend.Got into a fight at school? The Shadow Man made me.Stole from a store? He forced me to.Snuck out of the house? He came with me.I had almost completely forgotten about him. Until I move into the horror house—the house rumored to be a gateway to hell. Strange things keep happening, and I'm helpless to prevent them.More importantly, people keep dying. Particularly, people who harm me.It’s already a struggle to survive a new high school and town—including the attention of a dangerous gang—but now I have to survive ghosts too?One thing becomes clear: The Shadow Man wants me to come home.This is a young adult, slow-burn, horror reverse harem romance, meaning our leading lady won't have to choose between her love interests. It is the first in a series and will end in a cliff-hanger.
