"Three men. One cabin. No rules."

CREDENCE

A Dark, Isolated Romance by Penelope Douglas

Reverse harem • Forbidden • Taboo • Slow burn • 560 pages of atmospheric intensity

One girl. Three men. A remote cabin buried in winter.
Desire has no rules in the mountains.

THE STORY THAT WILL CONSUME YOU

When Tiernan de Haas loses both of her parents, she's sent to live with her father's reclusive stepbrother Jake Van der Berg and his two sons in the isolated mountains of Colorado. Far from the privilege and emptiness she grew up in, she enters a world with its own rhythm — work, silence, cold, and an intimacy she's never known. 

Jake. Noah. Kaleb. Three men who have lived without softness for too long — until she arrives.

Lines blur. Rules fade. And desire grows dangerous when no one else is watching.

Winter always reveals the truth.
And in these mountains, nothing stays hidden forever.
