Nightcurse

Cursed with eternity, haunted by love-discover the truth about living forever in this achingly atmospheric dark academia fantasy

Emrys Swift is so dead. One hundred and fifty seven years worth of dead, to be exact. He's a Revenant, nightcursed, destined to be stuck being seventeen forever. Hidden away, he spends his infinite days as an undead librarian of witchlore at the NeverEnd library-until a new Revenant arrives and magical artifacts start going missing, jeopardizing his beloved home.

Emrys's mortal enemy and annoyingly attractive shapeshifter Aubrey Vale is determined to solve the mystery-with Emrys's help. Suddenly Emrys and Aubrey are magically bonded together on a quest into the dark and frost-bitten world of night-kin. But as Emrys and Aubrey interrogate ghosts and face drowning by mermaids, deathly creatures aren't the only spectres haunting them. With the ghoulish Night Hunt chasing them down, can they outrun the secrets of Emrys' death and Aubrey's life? And if they can save NeverEnd's future, can they have a future together?

Hauntingly gorgeous and tender, Emma Hinds' Nightcurse is both a Gothic mystery and an enemies-to-lovers romance about navigating life and love in the face of death.
