The Ruinblood Heirloom Saga Scent of Ruin

The Scent of RuinBy Alestria Fawnwell When Alestria Fawnwell walks back into her family's decaying Southern estate wearing black and bad intentions, she isn't there for closure-she's there to dig up what the funeral tried to bury. Raised in a house that reeked of old money, cold secrets, and curated cruelty, Alestria has spent her life clawing her way free-from addiction, from expectation, and from a legacy laced in lies. Now sober, transformed, and unapologetically herself, she returns to face the will that names her heir to the very home that tried to destroy her. But nothing in this town stays buried for long.Not the whispers.Not the ghosts.And certainly not the truth. A Southern Gothic tale of glamour, grief, and generational rot, The Scent of Ruin is Book One of The Ruinblood Heirloom Saga. Twisted, emotional, and darkly seductive, it's a story about becoming the woman they never saw coming-and making them regret ever calling you by your dead name.
