Jonathan Denbury’s soul is trapped in the gilded painting by dark magic while his possessed body commits unspeakable crimes in the city slums. As his incredibly life-like gaze seems to follow her, Natalie gets the uneasy feeling that details of the painting keep changing… Something in his striking blue eyes calls to her.

Seventeen-year-old Natalie Stewart’s latest obsession is a painting of the handsome British Lord Denbury. The Picture of Dorian Gray meets Pride and Prejudice, with a dash of Dr. When author Leanna Renee Hieber says she wants to be “a gateway drug for nineteenth-century literature,” she means it! Because her new novel Darker Still definitely oozes with all the sensibility and style of a 19th century novel!
