A woman must confront the demons of her past when she attempts to fix up her childhood home in this devilishly clever take on the haunted house novel from the USA Today bestselling author.
Clio Louise Barnes leads a picture-perfect life as a stylist and influencer, but beneath the glossy veneer she harbors a not-so glamorous secret: she grew up in a haunted house. Well, not haunted. Possessed. After Clio’s parent’s messy divorce, her mother, Alex, moved Clio and her sisters into a house occupied by a demon. Or so Alex claimed. That’s not what Clio’s sisters remember or what the courts determined when they stripped Alex of custody after she went off the deep end. But Alex was insistent; she even wrote a book about her experience in the house.
After Alex’s sudden death, the supposedly possessed house passes to Clio and her sisters. Where her sisters see childhood trauma, Clio sees an opportunity for house flipping content. Only, as the home makeover process begins, Clio discovers there might be some truth to her mother’s claims. As memories resurface and Clio finally reads her mother’s book, the presence in the house becomes more real, and more sinister, revealing ugly truths that threaten to shake Clio’s beautiful life to its very foundation.
I still have two other Harrison books to read but I liked the ones I did read! Lol. This one sounds pretty good AND I learned she's coming back to St. Louis on tour for it, so you know I've already bought that ticket! Lol.

Be Careful What You Wish For…
It’s Ari’s twentieth year in the floating city of Maldia. Her last year alive—
As one of the Eternal’s sacred star maidens, the time has come for the Great Fall, where she will descend to Earth and grant the wish of her Chosen. But when she finally plummets to Earth, she discovers her Chosen’s original wish cannot be granted… And now, she’s stuck in the mortal realm with a ticking clock.
Elias never wanted to be soul-bonded with Ari. A non-believer, he wants to rid himself of the bond that ties him to the beautiful woman demanding a wish. So, he imagines a new wish—win not only the championship fight at the Aura Festival, but win back his former lover in the process. Yet as time passes, a fire between Elias and Ari grows, and he’s no longer certain of what he truly wants…
But there is another watching in the shadows—
An immortal stranger has his sights set on Ari. Seductive and brimming with supernatural power, he promises Ari a genuine life if only she desires to fight for it—as his queen.
One decision. One second in time. One wish.
Nothing will ever be the same.
I STILL need to start this author's books but they all sound so good I keep adding them to my TBR pile! I think this one is still releasing this year...I know the one that was slated for November got pushed back and then she has another one coming out in 2026. It looks like this might be a novella
