The Haunting Of Hill House Shirley Jackson

After I bought my new home outright, my relatives organized a housewarming party to celebrate. During dinner, my nephew Leo suddenly said, “You’re just a spinster living alone in a huge apartment. What do you need all that space for? I happen to be getting married soon. That’s a huge deal. You should transfer the place to me. I’ll even cover the transfer fee.” I was stunned. “Are you out of your mind?” His mother Linda said, “How can you be so ungrateful? Him using your place for his newlywed life is doing you a favor. It’ll bring you good luck! Other people would jump at the chance!” The son and mother were united against me. “Anyway, tomorrow’s a great day. Grab the property deed and come with us to transfer ownership!” I rejected them without hesitation and called them crazy. Who knew they would get so furious that they would storm into my brand-new apartment and go on a rampage, smashing everything in sight. They even said smugly, “We need to show you our family doesn’t get pushed around! Go ahead and call the police! What proof do you even have that it was us?” What they did not know was that I had installed surveillance cameras on the day I moved in.

Death wasn't the end. It was the beginning. And a curse. Sylvia's selfless love killed her. Losing herself for her husband, the Duke of House Winston, led to nothing but a pitiful end. But instead of death, she finds herself regressed, back in the past, to before everything began. With this new life, Sylvia chooses a perilous path to avenge her previous self. To start, she needs allies as pawns and the backing of her roots, House Lundren. But she soon realizes that there are secrets she's yet to discover, stories she's yet to hear, and prices yet to be paid. After all, a human living past death over and over is nothing short of an anomaly, and a power that can grant it won't come for free. If you love wounded protagonists, unveiling mysteries, and cold-served revenge with a side of angsty romance, then this book is perfect for you. Read it now.
