Theres something haunting about Black River the kind of story with chilling twists, a slow-burn romance, and just the right amount of bite. It pulls you into its eerie depths and doesn't let you go Black River is dark, intoxicating, and impossible to put down. More please! -- Courtney Peppernell, author of Pillow Thoughts
