Detective Nicola Knight ran from New Orleans after her wife died, taking a consulting job that became a three-year exile.
When she finally comes home, Delphine is waiting, having never once let her down, keeping a dead woman’s plants alive in the dark.
But coming home means more than facing Del’s quiet grief. It means Grace, bound to Nicola by supernatural circumstances neither of them chose, and drawn to her in ways neither can deny. It means Victoria, a woman trapped by forces beyond her control, yet still a powerful force in Nicola’s life and still a love she can’t turn away from.
In a city where the paranormal bleeds into power and politics, where people can become bound to one another whether they intended it or not, Nicola has to navigate desire, loyalty, and survival alongside three women who refuse to let her stand alone.
Some connections, once made, can’t be severed.
Not by choice.
Not by death.
Not by anything at all.
For two years, Avery has been leaving the door open.
She brings coffee to a woman who never drinks it. She sits closer than the space requires. She says come with us like it costs nothing, knowing full well it costs Vera everything.
When a weekend at a remote lodge goes wrong in ways none of them have the vocabulary for, the careful distance Vera has maintained for three hundred years stops being a choice. Something is hunting the people she loves. And Avery already knows what Vera is. Has known for a while. Is asking her, quietly and without apology, to stop pretending otherwise.
Shadow Pine Lodge is a sapphic gothic vampire romance about wanting and being wanted by someone who knows exactly what they’re reaching toward.
