Beast of the Bayou

by

CJ North

In the heart of the bayou, love can be a curse.

When Magdalena “Mag” Lafleur agrees to visit the mysterious Belcourt House with her best friend, she expects an abandoned house and ghost stories. But deep in the Louisiana swamps, the past lingers.

It never forgets.

As Mag sleeps, a man appears in her dreams and brands her as his. When she wakes, she discovers the terrible truth—he is real, and he has come for her.

Though her captor can’t speak a word, his intentions become clear—he wants her to love him. And as much as she fights against it, something about him calls to her.

Now, trapped in a bayou filled with secrets, dangerous creatures, and restless spirits, Mag must unravel the mystery of the man who holds her captive. The question is, what will be the price of her freedom—her life or her heart?

In this dark, atmospheric retelling of Beauty and the Beast, the line between love and possession is razor-thin.
