Love Beyond The Glass: Trapped in a Haunted Mirror Since 1923, One College Student Risks Everything for Forbidden Love

by Simran Mehta

An antique shop that only opens at night. A seamstress trapped in a mirror since 1923. A love that the shop intends to feed on.

What Love Beyond The Glass is about

Elias Brennan, a sleep-deprived college student, stumbles into Haverly's Curiosities and meets Clara — a ghost anchored to a silver-framed mirror since the fire of 1923. Their romance deepens as Elias uncovers what the shop really is, what it eats, and why people have been vanishing from Old Town for a century.

For: readers who want a gothic romance with real teeth.

A college student falls in love with a ghost

Elias Brennan is a sleep-deprived college student. Clara is a seamstress who has been anchored to a silver-framed mirror since the fire of 1923. Love Beyond The Glass is a forbidden human–ghost love story told from his side of the glass: a standalone, slow-burn romance where the love interest really is dead.

A haunted antique shop that only opens at night

Haverly's Curiosities only opens after dark, and people have been vanishing from Old Town for a century. As the romance deepens, Elias learns what the shop really is and what it eats. It's a haunted shop, a cursed object and a building with an appetite, all in one.

Gothic romance with real horror

This is not a cosy ghost romance. It is a moody, eerie paranormal romance with real teeth, for October reading and for anyone who wants their love story to be genuinely haunting.
