Among Her Bones

by Kate SeRine

About this book

Desperation leads single mother Zellie Dupont to the crumbling, moss-draped halls of a Savannah mansion, seeking a sanctuary for her ailing child. What she finds is a refuge that feels less like a home and more like a waiting grave. Dawes House is steeped in the humid, suffocating atmosphere of Southern Gothic tradition, where the walls hold secrets that refuse to stay buried and every shadow seems to pulse with a life of its own.

Caught in a forced-proximity nightmare, Zellie is drawn to her enigmatic benefactor, whose wounded tenderness offers a dangerous allure. Their connection smolders in a slow-burn romance that defies the chilling environment, providing a desperate anchor for her fraying nerves. Yet, as their intimacy grows, so does the mansion’s grip. Whispers echo in empty hallways, and the restless spirits of women long forgotten begin to claw at the edges of her reality.

This atmospheric paranormal thriller masterfully blends heart-wrenching emotional stakes with supernatural dread. As Zellie unravels the dark history of the estate, she must decide if the love she has found is a salvation or a trap. For those seeking a chilling ghost story layered with intense, slow-burning passion, this haunting tale promises a descent into a past that is hungry for more than just memories.

Among Her Bones by Katie SeRine delivered a gripping blend of supernatural suspense, emotional depth, and unexpected twists. Among Her Bones by Katie SeRine was my first introduction to her work. Overall, it was a wild, atmospheric trip that kept me thoroughly engaged. From the moment I started reading, the story immediately pulled me in and refused to let go.

I had never heard of Kate SeRine and had only stumbled across this book based on the genre search for Gothic romance, but after reading the book description I was immediately sucked in. The first thing I realized was that this book is told in only Zellie’s POV, which is not necessarily a deterrent, but instantly made me wonder why? What is going to happen in the plot that would be ruined if we got Whit’s POV. Well for all my plot twist lovers out there, it's absolutely fabulous and this book is...

The ending just fell flat to me.

We follow single mother Zellie as she moves with her son to Dawes House - she is instantly welcomed as family by all of the residents of the other apartments and she quickly begins a relationship with the owner of the house, Whit - even as it becomes clear that things aren't as picture perfect as they first appeared. I enjoyed a majority...
