Description

Black Quill Award Winner, Best Dark Genre Collection (2010)
A young bride and her future mother—in—law risk everything to escape it. A repentant father summons help from a pot of tar to ensure it. A starving woman learns from howling winds and a whispering host, just how fulfilling it can finally be.

Can it be love?
