Delilah and Gavins new love is threatened by a force uncomfortably close to home in this haunting novel from New York Times bestselling duo Christina Lauren.
His shirt is black, jeans are black, and shaggy black hair falls into his eyes. And when Gavin looks up at Delilah, the dark eyes shadowed with bluish circles seem to flicker to life.
He lives in that house, the one at the edge of town. Spooky and maybe haunted. Something worse than haunted. And Gavin is trapped by its secrets.
Delilah and Gavin cant resist each other. But staying together will exact a price beyond their imagining.
Masterfully told and wholly original, THE HOUSE is a bold new take on the haunted house genre. Dont read it at home alone. Or at night. Or at all, if you scare easy. Youve been warned! -- Ransom Riggs, New York Times bestselling author of Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiar Children
An entrancing, darkly romantic story that's equal parts beautiful and chilling. Once you enter The House, you'll be forever in its thrall. Welcome to your next obsession. -- Alexandra Bracken, New York Times bestselling author of The Darkest Minds series
