Intro to the WIP I’m revising 🥰 DARCY COATES X JUNIPER & THORN When a woman with touch-based magic discovers her fiancé’s monstrous curse, she worries he might be behind the sudden murders around their manor. And after she falls mysteriously ill, she realizes she’ll be the next body to fall.

Rewatching The Holiday has become such a treasured tradition for me that I legitimately plan it like an event. I need no distractions, the comfiest clothes and blankets, the perfect snack, and it has to be juuust before Christmas. I look forward to it almost as much as Christmas itself. 🥹
