Point Pleasant breeds legends and bad decisions. Detective Evie Reed swore off both—until a midnight case drags her into the TNT ruins and face-to-face with the town’s secret protector: a cursed man bound to the shadows, wing-scarred and dangerous as a storm.

He was human once—and still is when the curse loosens its grip. In the dark between patrols and sleepless nights, Evie finds the man beneath the myth: sharp-tongued, fiercely gentle, starving for touch. Their chemistry is wildfire—hot, reckless, impossible to ignore—and when they give in, it’s all teeth on a threadbare shirt, fingers in tangled hair, and the kind of heat that leaves marks.

But Point Pleasant is changing. Something is hunting the riverbanks, and the curse that keeps him strong is eating him alive. To break it, Evie must trace a trail of lies back to 1966 and decide how far she’ll go for the man she never meant to love.

Dark, moody, and unapologetically steamy, Knotted by the Mothman blends small-town mystery, cursed-guardian kink-adjacent heat, and a heroine who doesn’t need saving—she needs a partner who can keep up.
