Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Some things can only be fixed by letting them burn.For an entire year, Maren has been the only thing keeping Julian tethered to the earth. After her sister, Sera, died in a tragic car crash, Maren stepped into the ruins of Julian's life to hold him together. She watered his plants, cleaned his apartment, and sat with him in the suffocating dark. But beneath her dutiful caretaking lies a shameful secret: Maren has always been completely, devastatingly in love with him.Desperate to save Julian from his crushing grief-and drowning in the guilt of her own selfish desires-Maren strikes a dark bargain. She burns a mysterious card from an unplaceable shop, trading a life for a life, and wishes for her sister to return.The universe answers. Sera wakes up on Julian's kitchen floor.But the miracle is a curse. The thing wearing Sera's face, with its freezing skin and unblinking eyes, isn't entirely human. It is a parasite born of ash, tethered to the physical world by slowly and methodically draining Julian's life force. And worst of all, Julian is willingly letting himself be consumed.Now, Maren must confront the monstrous consequences of her own jealousy. To save the man she loves from being eaten alive by a ghost, she has to break the curse-even if it means losing him forever.HOST is a gripping, atmospheric dark psychological romance. Blending supernatural suspense with raw, emotional devastation, it explores the terrifying sacrifices we make for the ones we hold dear, and the deadly price of a second chance.
