The Devil of Dúnmara

A storm lashed Irish village. An inheritance neither of them wanted. A love story buried beneath years of betrayal. When Saoirse Quinn returns to Dúnmara for her aunt's funeral, she expects grief, gossip, and a quick escape back to the life she built far from the sea. What she does not expect is Cillian Ó Riain, the man tied to every old wound her family left behind. Blackwater House, once the grandest wedding hotel on the coast, has been dying above the Atlantic for years. Its rooms are full of dust, salt air, locked doors, and secrets no one in Dúnmara has ever dared to speak aloud. Then Nuala Quinn's will leaves the house to Saoirse and Cillian together, forcing two enemies into the same crumbling estate with only twelve weeks to restore it before developers claim it forever. Saoirse wants answers. Cillian wants the truth buried before it destroys what little peace remains. But Blackwater House has been waiting too long. Old letters surface. Family legends begin to crack. The story Saoirse was raised to believe turns darker, stranger, and more heartbreaking with every room they open. And beneath the anger, beneath the history, beneath every sharp word and stolen glance, something dangerous begins to burn. Cillian is not the villain Saoirse remembers. Saoirse is not the untouchable woman Cillian tried to forget. And Blackwater House is not finished with either of them. Some houses hold the dead. Some houses hold memory. Blackwater House held love with its teeth. The Devil of Dúnmara is a gothic contemporary romance of enemies to lovers, old family secrets, stormy Irish cliffs, forbidden desire, and the kind of love that refuses to stay buried.
