Once again another brilliant book written by Christina. I am super excited I was able to win a copy of this book from Librarything and everything about this series has been such a joy. Do not let the size of the books scare you away, it is beautifully written and the world is awesome. You can tell she took so much time in making sure her books are as historically accurate as possible. I still absolutely love Charlotte. I am in a mighty need of the next book. This has been one of my favorite series of the year. That ending though. Ah. If you are a lover of Historical Romance novels, you are going to have a blast with this novel. I recommend reading the first one before reading this one.… (mere)

The premise of the story is what drew me in. I was excited ti get my hands in this massive book. Thank you to the author for a copy in exchange for an honest review.

At first, it did take me a bit to get into the book, but that might have been more because it is such a massive book (over 700 pages) so it was a little daunting at first.

I enjoyed the development of the story and the characters. The book has tons of adventure, twist and turns, and romance. It is dark and I suggest checking out the Trigger Warning before diving in. There are some scenes that are not for the faint of heart, the characters have dark back stories and can be quite questionable in their actions. But there is development and growth and this gives full dimension to characters that seem to really come off the page.

This is definetly for fans of adventure, action, and romance. Can't wait to read the next one!… (mere)

“Haunt” (Loveletting #1) by Christina Maraziotis ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Genre: Gothic Dark Romance. Location: Alternative West, USA. Time: 1899. THE SERIES: Brown-haired, hazel-eyed Charlotte (26) flees her abusive home. She’s stubborn, naive, insecure, but brave-chestnut horse Finn her only true companion. Her life collides with tortured Mac Kinnon (notorious serial killer), elite Will Griffiths (with his tender words), and bounty hunter Levi (with his “godly-shaped body”). The series contains hidden puzzles created by the author.
THIS BOOK: Heading west, Charlotte and Finn survive a forest fire, grizzly bear attack, blizzards, drowning, physical attacks. She’s rescued by Will, saved by Mac, sheltered by Levi, pursued by Sheriff Dorman (who’s obsessed with Mac Kinnon). In true Victorian form, Will, Mac, and Levi are enamored with her, and she’s flattered, yet confused by their attentions. It’s dark, gothic, Victorian-read the trigger warnings. Author Maraziotis shares the life trajectories of Mac-notorious killer raised by a sexually sadistic farmer, Will-kind, elite gentleman with hidden terrors, Levi-determined to render justice, and Charlotte-growing up unwanted. She writes complex characters, brutal environments/situations, questionable conflicts. Her morally grey characters change and grow over time-she includes back stories along the way. Haunt could have been several books but it isn’t, so enjoy the chance to experience in depth the characters’ challenging, complicated stories. Keep in mind: “War and Peace” is 1296 pages, “Haunt” only 758. It’s gothic romance, intense adventure, suspense, horrifying/unsettling subplots. Characters aren’t politically correct, heros aren’t moral and honest, and it’s 4 stars from me.🌵📚💁🏼‍♀️ Thank you to LibraryThing, Existential Publishing, and Christina Maraziotis for this copy.… (mere)
