NIGHT IS ON HER HAIR
In a haunting island manor, Estella Ripley has been exchanging clovers with her grandad for years, hiding them in books and under teacups like little love notes. They’ve created their own snow globe-safe world that doesn’t judge a young woman whose hair and fingertips turn as green as the clovers they trade. But when a vindictive tree inexplicably pulls Grandad into the earth, Estella’s world is shattered. She is now at the mercy of her new husband, a doctor who regards her peculiar attributes as freakish.
Before the doctor can use her for his sinister experiments, Estella discovers a secret passage beneath the island and escapes to an enchanted glen where water heals wounds, plants have personalities, and a group of Irish folk hide from normal society. But the glen’s inhabitants are plagued with an old Irish curse that transforms them into hideous plant-like monsters at night. Worse yet, Estella’s presence seems to heighten their most grotesque and violent traits. Riddled with a horrible suspicion that Grandad caused the curse, she teams up with Ayron Black, an endearing but dangerous amateur botanist, to find a cure. As she falls for the boy who has poison in his veins, the glen falls into chaos, and Estella discovers that abandoning the glen will do more harm than good; the clovers she once exchanged with Grandad might be the cure to save everyone’s lives except her own.
Wild and lush, NIGHT IS ON HER HAIR is a spellbinding Gothic romantasy that will keep you reading well into the night. Just keep the doors locked.
