The Front Side of Down: Book 1

Nadine Gooch is nearly thirty years old and lives the most boring life she can imagine. Her job is mundane, and her only friend is co-worker Deidre whose greatest ambition is the pursuit of a husband. Her parents even maintain the distance towards her that she endured during childhood.
After a chance meeting with Carol Brinkley, Nadine receives an invitation to attend a party at Carol's lavish home. Fate steps in and at the party she is introduced to the dark haired handsome man named Iriney Dmitriev, who has the inexplicable power to make her feel fear and desire at the same time. She quickly learns he's living in the town's only reputed haunted house. The house is something out of a Poe tale complete with noises in the night, nightmares, and strange sightings of a fearless wolf. Ire, as he preferred to be called, laughs off the rumors about his new home. Are the rumors about his house on Riley truly just myth, or will Nadine find as she gets to know Ire, that there is something sinister and true about them?
