Description

Rowan, a mortal historian, arrives at the remote and storm-battered Blackcliff Manor to study ancient manuscripts, unaware that the manor harbors secrets far older than he could imagine. Eamon, a vampire who has lived for centuries, guards these secrets, carrying the weight of a past filled with loss and longing.

From the moment their eyes meet, an undeniable, forbidden attraction sparks between them. But desire comes with a price—Rowan's return awakens not only the vampire's heart but a lurking darkness that has waited centuries to claim what is awakened.

As the storm rages outside and shadows move through the halls, Rowan and Eamon must navigate desire, danger, and secrets bound by time. The manuscripts reveal hidden truths, testing their courage, trust, and the strength of a bond neither expected—but cannot resist.

Will their hearts survive the trials of Blackcliff Manor? Or will the shadows claim what has returned?

The Heart That Returned is a dark, gothic, and sensual gay vampire romance filled with forbidden love, ancient secrets, and a dramatic but satisfying resolution.
