Left reeling from her aunt’s sudden death, Landry knows she has to restore the old house and sell it for much needed cash. Preferably, before autumn arrives. But as renovations begin on Harthwait, she notices some peculiarities: Motion sensors activate when no one is home, doors slam shut, and every night, at a quarter after midnight, the disembodied crying begins. Then, when she uncovers a hidden door during the renovations, she dares to open it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBehind the door is a world of nightmares, some of which are hers, while others belong to a monster—who is trapped inside and desperate to get out. Both haunted by their pasts, Landry makes a deal with the monster, but as they develop feelings for each other, she realizes that the thing that looks like a beast may not be the most beastly thing after all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis rich and spellbinding tale explores the idea of what we call home and who we call family.\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eA Heart So Haunted\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e“A spellbinding ghost story with a beating heart, Landry’s story is simultaneously eerie and emotional.
