Resumen del Editor
“We were born within the veiled walls of the convent. Our existence was an abomination. My brother vowed, that one day, he would discover the truth and expose the secrets, the lies, and the forbidden love which spawned us. He would ensure we would reclaim the life that had been stolen from us.”
“Is that how you saved me, Albert?”
“Yes,” he whispered.
Set against the beginning of the Spanish-American War, a young woman finds herself thrown into the midst of the most difficult choice of her life. This decision will ultimately lead to the unveiling of her family’s most deeply held secrets.
With two innocent lives caught in the veil between life and death, will she be able to make amends and cast out the evil that now thrives among the living?
A Pale Shade of Winter is a Southern Gothic horror saga that tells the story of Lenore Kensington, a young woman of considerable social standing who finds herself torn between family honor and duty and forbidden love.
But, this is not a love story. In fact, it is a story about betrayal, redemption, vengeance, and faith. And, in the end, one of the most heinous of all sins will be revealed.

The orphaned Elsie Camden learned as a girl that there were two kinds of wizards in the world: those who pay for the power to cast spells and those, like her, born with the ability to break them. But as an unlicensed magic user, her gift is a crime. Commissioned by an underground group known as the Cowls, Elsie uses her spellbreaking to push back against the aristocrats and help the common man. Elite magic user Bacchus Kelsey is one elusive spell away from his mastership when he catches Elsie breaking an enchantment. To protect her secret, Elsie strikes a bargain.

When I was younger, my mother saved my settlement from the unblessed dead that would have killed us all. It cost her everything to reveal her necromancy and sent shockwaves through our stringent religious settlement. Convicted of heresy against our sacred lost texts, she died soon after. Since then, I have worked hard to maintain my pious standing so that when I turn 18 I will be selected by a suitable husband at the bridal auction. As the large clock in town square ticks down to my 18th birthday, the dead have been appearing in my garden.

This remarkable novel begins in 1850s Louisiana, where Gilda escapes slavery and learns about freedom while working in a brothel. After being initiated into eternal life as one who "shares the blood" by two women there, Gilda spends the next 200 years searching for a place to call home. An instant lesbian classic when it was first published in 1991, The Gilda Stories has endured as an auspiciously prescient book in its explorations of blackness, radical ecology, re-definitions of family, and yes, the erotic potential of the vampire story.

Asher Todd comes to live with the mysterious Morwood family as a governess to their children. Asher knows little about being a governess but she is skilled in botany and herbcraft, and perhaps more than that. And she has secrets of her own, dark and terrible—and Morwood is a house that eats secrets. With a monstrous revenge in mind, Asher plans to make it choke. However, she becomes fond of her charges, of the people of the Tarn, and she begins to wonder if she will be able to execute her plan—and who will suffer most if she does.

This remarkable novel begins in 1850s Louisiana, where Gilda escapes slavery and learns about freedom while working in a brothel. After being initiated into eternal life as one who "shares the blood" by two women there, Gilda spends the next 200 years searching for a place to call home. An instant lesbian classic when it was first published in 1991, The Gilda Stories has endured as an auspiciously prescient book in its explorations of blackness, radical ecology, re-definitions of family, and yes, the erotic potential of the vampire story.

Asher Todd comes to live with the mysterious Morwood family as a governess to their children. Asher knows little about being a governess but she is skilled in botany and herbcraft, and perhaps more than that. And she has secrets of her own, dark and terrible—and Morwood is a house that eats secrets. With a monstrous revenge in mind, Asher plans to make it choke. However, she becomes fond of her charges, of the people of the Tarn, and she begins to wonder if she will be able to execute her plan—and who will suffer most if she does.

A true gothic story
The story is definitely a gothic one and it’s really good. There are some time jumps that leave some gaps. I really enjoyed the story and the narration.

Great Story!
I really enjoyed the story. From the very start, I was drawn to the characters and felt their emotions as if I was in the story myself. The narration was great. The different voices and accents really aided in following the characters. I look forward to reading or listening to the next book in the series.

Dark & Dreary
Twins, brother and sister, born out of wedlock and under other terrible conditions, have a very hard life. Then it gets worse, and then it gets worse. This is a long and sad tale of family secrets, misunderstandings, and some paranormal misadventures, There are a lot of twists and turns in the plot, but most are in a downward spiral. I did feel for the characters and their tragic lives, and I'm glad there was some positive results. Won't be taking on the 2nd book, but that's just me. The book is compelling if you're into gothic tragedy.

The Dollanger Siblings in the 1800s
Thank you L B Stimson and
This is my honest review
Lovers of V. C. Andrews will Go Wild over this Gothic Story of Revenge, Family Secrets, Betrayal, and Death.
Some Family Secrets are better off left in the past.
Have You Ever Wonder If the Dollanger Siblings Story took place in the Victorian Era but with unique Twists.
I highly recommend this book
