The Beast of Hollowmere. Shadowed Fairy Tales, #1

Ninety days. One arrangement. No escape. Maya Voss has spent years cleaning up her brother's mistakes, but this time the cost is more than she can pay. When Danny's debt is transferred to Moretti Holdings, Maya is given one impossible option: spend ninety days at Hollowmere Manor as a live-in administrative assistant to Cassian Moretti, and the debt will be discharged. Cassian is not what she expected.
Scarred, reclusive, feared, and surrounded by secrets, he should be exactly the kind of man Maya keeps her distance from. But Hollowmere Manor is more complicated than the rumors suggest, and the work she is asked to do is very real. As Maya begins sorting through Cassian's tangled files, legal disputes, hidden rooms, and dangerous alliances, she discovers a man far more wounded than monstrous. Then violence reaches the manor.
With enemies closing in and Cassian's world beginning to fracture, Maya must decide whether Hollowmere is a prison she needs to escape - or the first place she has ever been truly seen. The Beast of Hollowmere is a gothic romance novella filled with an isolated manor, a scarred recluse hero, a resilient heroine, forced proximity, slow-burn tension, danger, secrets, and emotional healing.
