Overview
She lived the life they gave her. Then she found the one they took. A hidden room. A ghost in the mirror. A girl unraveling everything she was raised to forget. Emily was raised to obey. To pray. To forget. For as long as she can remember, her family has been her whole world. Her safe place. Her calling. But when late-night noises lead her to a hidden room inside her bedroom wall, Emily begins to see things she can't explain. A destroyed teddy bear. A scrap of pink fabric. A girl in the mirror who isn't her. As buried memories rise from the cracks, so do questions--about her past, her identity, and what really happened to the girl who came before her. The more Emily remembers, the more dangerous it becomes to stay. But she's not alone. A quiet man who doesn't follow the rules she was raised to obey. A friend who helps her find the courage to ask forbidden questions. Together, they become her lifeline through the dark. Because the house isn't just haunted by a ghost. It's haunted by everything she was made to forget.

Author Information
April Boulware writes haunting psychological horror with a heartbeat.She blends gothic atmosphere, slow-burn suspense, and raw emotional depth to explore what it means to survive the unimaginable--and still hope. Her work often centers on women reclaiming their stories after spiritual abuse, trauma, and isolation, with threads of found family and quiet romance woven through the dark.April draws inspiration from her own past in a cult-like, abusive environment, and the long road of healing that followed. When she's not writing or reading something ghostly, she's probably reorganizing her planner, sipping strong coffee, or chasing a story idea down a rabbit hole.She lives in rural South Carolina with her husband, three children, and a bunch of chickens, where she homeschools by day and writes by night.The House's Daughter is her debut in the House of Prey series, a gothic psychological horror saga about faith, memory, and the girls who were never meant to survive. Amanda Friday loves being able to create and breathe life into beloved characters from classic literature to contemporary work. Her favorite genres to narrate are romance (using her pseudonym) and NA/YA. Amanda is passionate about the arts and bringing high quality audio productions into homes the world over.
