Some houses are haunted. This one is waiting.
Mara doesn't believe in ghosts. She believes in aperture, composition, and the cold, hard reality of the shutter click. As a real estate photographer, she's spent her career documenting the soulless, modern renovations of historic homes.
But the Henderson estate is different.
The air is too thick. The shadows have a pulse. And when she looks through her viewfinder, she sees him-a man with eyes like century-old secrets and a presence that makes the floorboards groan under his weight.
He isn't a trick of the light. He isn't a memory. He is the house's heartbeat, trapped within the property line for a hundred and fifty years, starved for a touch that doesn't pass through him.
Mara knows she should leave. She knows the smart thing to do is walk out the front door and never look back. But the house is beautiful, the silence is a challenge, and James-the man who has forgotten his own name-is finally learning how to be real.
One week. Seven days. A hundred and sixty-eight hours until she signs the lease and forfeits her old life.
She came to document the house. Now, she's never leaving.
