The first book in the Tainted Love Tales series.
Alice Payton was eight years old when it began. Night terrors brought with them a violent apparition. For years she lived in fear of it, a victim to its power and inexplicable need for her until she was able to finally move on and leave it all behind her.
Or so she thought...
Eleven years later, Alice has matured into a young woman and, having left behind the memories of her childhood, returns to her old home during college break. There, she finds herself drawn back into her past, and into the arms of the one who waited...
I read this a few years ago when it first came out & really liked it. So I just reread it again & still loved it! Eagerly waiting for the second book in this series to come out.
Beautifully told story. A great example of the horror-romance genre. Kind of short but that's to be expected from a 7 dollar book. It's definitely long enough to carry the story without feeling rushed.
"love this book" reading this book was a treat. The horror scenes are edgy, the twist is amazing. from start to finish this book is amazing. the characters are well written, and come off as real people. i was sad to see it end, but i can't stop re-reading it.
