Nocticadia
ByPublisher Description
A dark, atmospheric tale of deadly secrets and forbidden love.
Mortui vivos docent.
The dead teach the living.
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I’d find the cure for what ravaged her. And leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me.
Four years later, I receive an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest, most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it’s rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before. Those whose bones are said to make up the island’s white sandy shores.
And restless ghosts aren’t even its most daunting peculiarity.
Devryck Bramwell, known on campus as Doctor Death, is a brilliant pathologist in charge of the midnight lab. He’s also my devastatingly handsome professor, who seems to loathe tenacious first-years, like me. Except, his dark and enigmatic gaze tells me all the ways he’d devour me if given the chance, and his stolen kisses burn my lips with forbidden jealousy.
I crave his authority.
He aches for redemption.
Together, we’re toxic. Delicious fodder for the prying eyes hellbent on exhuming the rotted skeletons of our pasts.
For the dead have much to teach, and it’s only a matter of time before Dracadia’s most depraved secret is resurrected.

“This was okay. I don’t feel like it was real dark romance and it took forever to get To a point. The first 36 chapters was dragging alone I almost DNF’ed it. The ending was good but overall it was just okay.”Allison Roberts

“This book is in my top 5 for 2024. The perfect mix of plot and spice! The gothic setting, tension between the FMC & MMC, and the creep factor make this the perfect moody, spicy read. It’s definitely a slow burn but so worth the wait. And the overall story is so interesting. I’ll never look at a worm the same 😅😆”Rebekah Clark

“I read this thinking I’m so sad this is going to end, but I finished it and it ended in a good place. I’m happy it’s a standalone. We love a scientist that’s a poet in bed(on the wall, in the shower on the couch and in the car).”Start a Book Club
