Wicked Carousel
***NOTE: Wicked Carousel is Part One of a Four Part Serial entitled Voodoo Carnival. Each episode will release on a weekly basis barring any publication issues***
Erica Marks knows there are things that lurk in the dark. At the age of fourteen, she watched the man she loved like a father ritualistically murder her cousin to gain a deadly power. The rest of that night is a black hole in her memory. Police reports marked her as the only survivor of the Carnival of Horrors Serial Killer, Edgar Clairborne, but deep in her soul Erica knows he's still out there. Waiting.
Ten years later, the murders begin once more and the victims scream for her to avenge them from beyond the grave, to lay them to rest. The twisted darkness longs for Erica's blood, reanimating the corpses of the victims, and forcing her to take a stand or die. Every drop of blood spilled ties her closer to the realm of the dead, leaving behind more questions than answers. Answers only a stranger seems to posses.
One man, the mysterious, sexy, and very dangerous Jules Desbois, knows the answers to the murderer's return, but he has secrets of his own. Secrets that go into Erica's past and force the duo to return to the abandoned Carnival of Horrors where it all began. The attraction that ignites between them pulses with a life of its own, one laced with danger that threatens to destroy them both.
Should Erica trust Jules or does the darkness in his heart hide a more sinister purpose?

Hauntingly brilliant!
Erica follows the spirit of her cousin, who was killed, on a wild chase that ends in intrigue and mystery! Just enough spooky to keep you captivated with each turn of the page!
Along the way, she meets Jules. It is a coincidence that he is there to save her, and together they start a journey to end the threat of ghouls
I don't always like serial books, but in this case, I cannot WAIT for Dawn Montgomery to release the next and the next! I will definitely be buying each and everyone!

4 part serial , fast read, and very engaging.
Erica follows her dead cousin to an old abandoned Carnival and there after a painful fall under a rotted carousel she meets Jules. He saves her life from a ghoul who wants her blood. It's the key to something more important.
