What the House RemembersBook One of the Dissever My Heart SeriesSome houses keep memories.This one refuses to forget.When Angeline Carter and her family move into an aging Victorian house on the edge of town, she tells herself it's the fresh start they desperately need. The towering wraparound porch, the overgrown garden, and the quiet tree-lined street all promise something she hasn't felt in a long time-peace.After years of feeling like a spectator in her own life, Angeline wants to rebuild something real. Something safe.But the house has other plans.At first, the changes are subtle. A door that refuses to stay closed. A picture frame shifting when no one is nearby. The faint sense of being watched from the upstairs windows after midnight. The kind of small disturbances that can easily be dismissed as imagination… or old pipes settling into place.Angeline tries to ignore it.She has enough to worry about already. Her husband Will is distant and distracted, their marriage strained by secrets neither of them knows how to confront. Their teenage daughter Alexis and one year old Charlie are growing up faster than Angeline can keep up with, forming friendships and alliances that seem to pull her deeper into the strange pull of the neighborhood.The deeper Angeline digs into the history of the house, the more the past begins to bleed into the present.
