A glittery, gory tale that's a madcap twist on Frankenstein's monster and a sinister look at how our deepest desires can manifest into something monstrous. From the multi-award nominated and acclaimed author of Ghost Eaters and Acquired Taste.
Every girl wants a lover boy. A companion, a friend, or perhaps a toy.
He'll do as you please, just simply ask. Mr. Lonelyhearts is up for the task...
When Jenn first sees Mr. Lonelyhearts, he's just a CPR dummy. She and her friends dress him up and pour their adolescent fantasies into his open, willing vessel. Then they grow up, get real boyfriends, forget about him. But Mr. Lonelyhearts never forgets them. And decades later, after a traumatic break-up leaves Jenn shattered, Mr. Lonelyhearts reappears in her life to pick up the pieces.
But what if the man of her dreams turns out to be an absolute nightmare? The past is literally haunting her in this killer supernatural slasher perfect for fans of Grady Hendrix, Stephen Graham Jones, and CJ Leede.
