An outcast girl. A dangerous man. A castle with secrets steeped in death.
After a lifetime of isolation, Corvina Clemm never expected to receive an acceptance letter to the mysterious University of Verenmore. Perched on a secluded mountaintop, the gothic castle feels like a world apart—one filled with secrets, whispers, and a century-old mystery.
Vad Deverell has spent years keeping the university’s dark past at bay. As a part-time professor, he watches everything, knows everything. But when Corvina arrives, she threatens to unravel more than just the school’s secrets—she threatens him.
Every five years, someone disappears. As Corvina begins uncovering the truth, Vad finds himself drawn into her orbit. But some mysteries are meant to stay buried… and some desires are impossible to resist.
For fans of Dracula and Beauty and the Beast, Gothikana is an intoxicating blend of dark romance, gothic horror, and academic intrigue.
