A Mixture of Love and Horror

January 24, 2016 admin No Comments

This year, StarkLight Press has teamed up with some of our best, hand-picked authors to bring you a spine-tingling Valentine’s Day anthology. Hearts Asunder is a set of short stories that turn the classic romantic tropes of Valentine’s Day on their heads.

Part good old fashioned horror story, part dark romance, every tale in our latest anthology is guaranteed to make you look at this romantic holiday in a new light.

To kick off our release of this great title, StarkLight Press is featuring interviews with each of our authors. Check back here to catch the latest ‘heart-to-heart’ with our Valentine’s Day writers.
