About the book
Leeds and Layla’s whirlwind romance shifts toward tragedy after a violent physical attack leaves Layla with severe brain trauma and memory loss. In an attempt to reconnect, Leeds takes her back to the bed-and-breakfast where they first met. While there, Layla’s behavior becomes increasingly erratic, and Leeds finds himself drawn to a presence he encounters within the house named Willow. He begins communicating with this invisible entity, forming a dangerous emotional bond that forces him to choose between his devotion to the injured woman he loves and the mysterious spirit that seems to understand him better.
Fans of paranormal suspense and psychological thrillers read this book to see how a traditional romance structure operates within a ghost story. It appeals to readers who enjoy examining the ethics of emotional infidelity and the boundaries of identity. The audience walks away with a perspective on how trauma alters personality and a specific understanding of how obsession can lead to moral compromise. It serves those looking for a dark narrative where the central mystery hinges on the internal motivations of a single, unreliable narrator.
