The Ivy House - The Ivy House, #1

An ivy-covered cottage in the middle of a supposedly haunted forest... When Dain runs away from his abusive brothers, intent on simply getting away, he takes the one path e is sure they won't follow him on. The one that leads straight through the forest rumored to be inhabited by a cursed monster. He hides for the night in a small cottage that seems to be long abandoned, but when his brothers show up following his trail, after all, he wonders: will he ever find a new life and freedom?
