Paranormal Romance

About When the Moon Whispers of Blood

There’s something in the waters of Melancholia Cove, Mississippi, where the wind whispers of heartbreak and the moon whispers of blood. Lurking beneath the murky depths of a seemingly tranquil river, a beautiful darkness waits…
For justice,
For revenge,
For love,
For Sinclair.

Sinclair Addo, affectionately called Sin, felt that she was woman enough at nineteen to defy her mother’s wishes that she never visit Melancholia Cove, a small island first settled by rebellious blacks in the early nineteen-hundreds. The island was also home to things that, once entertained, would send them straight to Hell, according to her grandfather, the good Reverend Mosses Morley.
Sin’s mother had left at eighteen with a man unworthy of Moses’ daughter. For her defiance, she bore the pain of a disappointing life in Atlanta with a broke poet who spent the better part of two decades alternately loving and leaving his family and his drug addiction.

It was on that island where Sin fell in love for the first time with Solomon Cabrera, a gangster’s son who pulled a gun on her when they first met. Over one long, humid summer, Solomon and Sin fell in love despite the bad blood between their families. Disowned by her grandfather for daring to love a Cabrera, Sin had no idea that the feud born of greed, racism, and betrayal went deeper than they would’ve ever thought possible. Their love reopened decades-old, insidious wounds that quickly poisoned their young relationship and caused Solomon to break up with her. Though she knew why he did, his heartbreak came at a time when she needed him most.

Like her mother, Sin buried her secrets on the island and left with no intention of ever coming back. She had no idea that someone was listening as she’d poured out her heart to the moon down by the river, and that there were powerful chains slowly pulling her back to the cove, and the forces, both light and dark, vying for her soul, were patient.

It takes twenty-five years for Sin to return to Melancholia Cove for what she thought would be a two-week stint to help her aunt with her catering business. After a painful divorce and her mother’s death, Sin needs a change. The last thing she needs is Solomon, now also divorced with a teenage daughter, and one family tragedy after another. She’s in too many pieces to help a shattered man mend his splintered heart.

Solomon still lives on the island in the shadow of his drug dealer father, and the stain of his deceased grandfather (May his soul rest in Hell), who’d caused him to break up with Sin. At nineteen, he couldn’t endanger Sin’s life when he knew his family made people with her midnight skin disappear on an ordinary Tuesday. Still, giving her up was one of the hardest things he’d ever had to do.

Twenty-five years later, after a tragic marriage and unbelievable heartbreak, he wants her back. Sin is now single, and more hypnotic than ever. She fits into the broken pieces of his soul, and he could do the same for her if she removed the gilded cage imprisoning her heart. He’s determined to exorcise all of her demons to get them back to the love that once consumed them, and this time, nothing will stand in his way.

To get to Sin, he will have to go through the beautiful darkness in the river. It’s far more dangerous than his family ever could be, and he can’t just shoot it.
It’s powerful,
It’s insidious,
It’s alluring,
And it knows things about Sin that Solomon could never imagine.
