The House at the Edge of Once Upon a Time (The Keepers of Forgotten Stories, #1)

At the edge of everything, there is a house. It stands where forgotten stories go to die-or to wait. Its rooms shift and breathe. Its walls hold the remnants of tales no one remembers: a tower where a girl once waited for rescue that never came, a ballroom frozen mid-dance, a garden that grows without end. And at its heart lives Yarrow, the Keeper-a creature stitched together from the pieces of every caretaker who came before. Yarrow has one rule: never let anyone in. Then someone knocks. The visitor has no memory, no name, no story of their own. They shouldn‘t exist. They certainly shouldn‘t be here, in a house that exists outside of time, tended by a keeper who has long forgotten what it means to hope. But the visitor is here. And their arrival will change everything-the house, the stories it holds, and the lonely keeper who has spent centuries believing that some doors should never be opened. The House at the Edge of Once Upon a Time is a dark fairy tale about forgotten things, broken things, and the radical act of choosing to stay. For readers of Clive Barker, Neil Gaiman, and Shirley Jackson.
