The Inheritance: A Forbidden Age-Gap Gothic Romance
Elise never expected her grandfather’s will to trap her in his New Orleans estate—
or to leave her under the watch of Henry Laurent, the man he trusted more than family.
Henry is older.
Too old for her by everyone’s standards.
Silent. Controlled. Impossible to read.
And completely wrong for her.
But as a storm closes in on Whitmore Manor, walls crack, secrets rise, and the tension between them becomes impossible to ignore.
What begins as obligation becomes something far more
a desire neither of them is supposed to feel.
A slow-burn, forbidden age-gap romance filled with gothic atmosphere, emotional depth, and stormbound tension.
Perfect for readers who
✓ older man / younger woman
✓ forbidden attraction
✓ Southern gothic settings
✓ slow-burn heat
✓ emotional, character-driven romance
Enter Whitmore Manor. Some doors will never close again.
