Blackthorn – J.T. Geissinger

A dark gothic romance filled with family secrets, forbidden love, and a past that refuses to stay buried.

Maven Blackthorn fled her hometown twelve years ago, leaving behind the whispers, the grief, and the man she once loved. Now, returning for her grandmother’s funeral, she finds herself pulled straight back into a world of old vendettas, dangerous truths, and a mystery that refuses to stay buried.

When she comes face to face with Ronan Croft—the son of her mother’s suspected killer and the man she never truly forgot—long-buried feelings ignite alongside a deadly game of revenge and deception. Perfect for readers who love enemies-to-lovers tension, gothic атмосpheres, and romance with a darker edge.
