Blind to the Monsters

When Mira dies in a car crash, she wakes inside an endless horror game: survive seven days in a thirty-floor building whose monsters play house as your family. There's just one problem for the audience betting on her death — Mira is so severely nearsighted that she can't see how terrifying any of them are. So she scolds the blood-soaked little girl for wearing a wet dress. She washes the Headless Boss's severed head like a fuzzy black melon. She mends the Intestines Grandpa's belly with a crochet hook and fake-cries her way out of a cannibal dinner. One by one, the deadliest bosses in the building fall in love with the strange, kind woman who treats them like people instead of nightmares. But the game has a final rule nobody has ever survived, and the door out only opens with a very particular kind of key. As the last night closes in, Mira learns exactly who her borrowed family used to be — and just how far they'll go to give her a happy ending she never asked them to pay for. A darkly funny, heart-wrenching paranormal romance about a woman who couldn't see the monsters, and the monsters who couldn't stop loving her.
