WHO WILL SURVIVE LACKADAY HOUSE?

When Zeb Wyckham is summoned to a wealthy relative's remote Gothic manor, he is horrified to find all the people he least wants to see in the world: his estranged brother, his sneering cousin, and his bitter ex-lover Gideon Grey. Things couldn't possibly get worse.

Then the master of the house announces the true purpose of the gathering: he intends to leave the vast family fortune to whoever marries his young ward, setting off a violent scramble for her hand. Zeb wants no part of his greedy family―but when he tries to leave, the way is barred. The walls of Lackaday House are high, and the gates firmly locked. As the Dartmoor mists roll in, there's no way out. And something unnatural may be watching them from the house's shadowy depths…

Fear and paranoia ramping ever-higher, Zeb has nowhere to turn but to the man who once held his heart. As the gaslight flickers and terror takes hold, can two warring lovers reunite, uncover the murderous mysteries of Lackaday House―and live to tell the tale?

(view spoiler)[ okay, loving it so far

I hate that Gideon is so mad but it seems like something definitely went wrong between the two of them. our mc seems a bit aloof and possibly ruined things for them both by not watching what he said

and yikes! Do you think the uncle (is he an uncle?) is trying to marry off the cousin because. . .her mother? (Grandmother?) Laura was actually HIS lover - and she lost her mind because she was pregnant with her own half brother's baby? eesh. he seems just a bit weirdly obsessed with her with all the paintings and whatnot.

the curse is an interesting twist!
I also love the idea of all these books being published that seem eerily similar to the house origins and things that could have actually happened in the house.

I wonder if ghosts are next! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ well. . .I don't blame Zeb for wanting to get out of there.
I wish he could be more honest about why he doesn't want to marry her. What a terrible position he's in.

and I think there is still the question - is someone dressing up and messing about in the house or is it supernatural?

holy cow (view spoiler)[
that room with all the writing. what a horrible way to live
and really, what is Wynn's end plan here?
and who is this young girl? and why is he pitting them against each other. Is it some curse where Wynn lives longer for every family member that dies? but he can't kill them?

and what was with the alter? still so . many. questions!

and I love him and Gideon together. I love that they are talking. I love that Zeb has written a book - a series no less - and that he's not going to have to trust or depend on his family. OMG and I love the beads! I didn't even realize it was a fidget until he said the rosary was just what he used! that's such a great idea - less judgement and something to spin in his fingers!

Do you think Wynn is really out of money? (hide spoiler)]

and done!

Wow (view spoiler)[ I never guessed the staff were all wronged by the family. Absolutely wild that Wynn was drugging and trying to get everyone to kill each other. I'm glad he died mostly alone as a recluse in his house

I'm so glad Zeb made it out. when he went for his brother, I was a bit worried he or Gideon were not going to make it out so I was glad when they both did! (hide spoiler)]
