Submerged Ever After by Ann Marie Ruby is a gothic romance, a masterfully stitched beautiful mosaic of mysteries interspersed with plenty of surprises in a cool island off Australia mainland. I was deeply touched by several characters but especially the Maharani and her persistence to reunite with her forcefully separated twin flame. To me, the book is the best of the best gothic novel by this multi-genre international bestselling author truly with a golden pen. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it...
