Fate is a fickle creature, is he not?

Sunday
My name is Sunday Mourning. Yes, you heard that correctly. And no, I don’t want to talk about it. I don’t want to talk about the fact I’m having a dry spell, or that I’m about to lose my job because I told a kid to screw off. And I definitely don’t want to talk about the fact that my impromptu nosebleeds have just proven the existence of the occult.

Bellamy
After my marriage rots apart, I take a leap of faith and pursue a job at a museum in Salem. It feels like a lifeline, the perfect opportunity for a fresh start. That is until I stumble upon their resident taxidermist, a ghost from my past I’d thought I’d never see again. But when Sunday gets himself into a spot of my particular brand of trouble and realizes that I was never joking when I said I could see dead people – it seems like our tattered past might stitch itself together again.

STILLWATER is a second chance, hurt/comfort MM paranormal romance between a witch and a taxidermist. Set in the spooky atmospheric city of Salem, Massachusetts, it follows two men as they try to navigate old wounds and new versions of themselves. Between meddling ghosts, baby vampires and accidental witchcraft, will they find their way back to each other?

Stillwater is the first book in the Desire and Decay series. Sunday and Bellamy’s story will continue in Book 2.
