First off a big thank you to the publisher, to the author as well as to Netgalley for the invite to read Wildewood , it was the perfect read I needed and wanted on this cold winter day , especially with it's haunting, atmospheric tale that's wrapped in shadows, and secrets as well as dark haunting whispers of ancient magic that come from them. Plus Jessica Thorne story lines always seem to pull me in right from the very start.Which means I can't wait to read more by her .
You don’t need to run, my beloved. Not anymore. It’s time to come home to Wildewood…
The last of the de Wildes, scientist Alex point-blank refuses to believe the family is cursed – even though all her relatives died in mysterious circumstances at their ancestral manor, Wildewood. Now her twin brother has passed away there too. All she wants is to finally sell the old place and move on.
But Nick, the brooding, dangerously hot groundskeeper and her brother’s best friend seems determined to stand in her way. He was a suspect in her brother’s death. And Alex can find no records of him before he came to Wildewood 15 years ago…
Yet, when Alex nearly falls to her death restlessly pacing the shadowy halls in the dead of night, it’s Nick that saves her life. Cradled in his arms at the bottom of the winding staircase, Alex is barely able to stop herself kissing him as a sultry voice from seemingly deep within the house whispers, just give in.
But this near-death experience isn’t the last. Increasingly strange and potentially fatal accidents mount – each with striking similarity to those that claimed her relatives. Alex is forced to dig into her family’s wretched history, with Nick’s help. But are they ready to face just how dark the heart of Wildewood truly is?
