The Bloodstained Hearts Duology is a slasher romance series about a friend group reunion that should have been canceled, old secrets that refuse to stay buried, and love that gets very dangerous when survival enters the room. At the center of it all is a remote house, a group of people who know too much and say too little, and the ugly truth that sometimes the person holding your heart may also be holding the knife.
A friend-group reunion at a remote house turns into a weekend of old tension, bad choices, sharp secrets, and the very reasonable question of who, exactly, can be trusted when people start dying. Love, fear, loyalty, and suspicion all end up trapped under the same roof — and no one brought enough common sense to survive comfortably.
The blood has dried, but the past has not finished talking. Love, grief, and survival collide in the aftermath of what should have ended. Secrets come back with teeth, devotion gets harder to separate from obsession, and the dead are not the only ones haunting what remains.
1. Do not split up. You will anyway.
2. Do not trust the person acting calm. That is suspicious behavior.
3. Do not investigate strange noises alone unless you enjoy being a cautionary tale.
4. Do not assume love makes anyone harmless.
5. If someone says they will be right back, emotionally prepare yourself.
6. The house remembers more than anyone wants it to.
