Summary
Mortui vivos docent. The dead teach the living.
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me.
Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest, most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores.
And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.
Devryck Bramwell, known on campus as Doctor Death, is a brilliant pathologist in charge of the midnight lab. He's also my devastatingly handsome professor, who seems to loathe tenacious first-years like me. Except his dark and enigmatic gaze tells me all the ways he'd devour me if given the chance, and his stolen kisses burn my lips with forbidden jealousy.
I crave his authority.
He aches for redemption.
Together, we're toxic. Delicious fodder for the prying eyes hellbent on exhuming the rotted skeletons of our pasts.
For the dead have much to teach, and it's only a matter of time before Dracadia's most depraved secret is resurrected.
Nocticadia is a standalone dark academia tale of deadly secrets and forbidden love.

what an incredible ride that was...10/10

Profile Avatar Anonymous Apr 2025

It has a gripping plotline and great twists with a steamy romance. I really liked how the POV kept switching between the main characters, and even though the professor/student thing is generally more of a turn-off for me, the author somehow managed to make it seem like less of a messed-up power imbalance and more of a hot, forbidden love. Great narrators and really awesome world-building, with a very original and intriguing plot. 10/10

Perfection with a cute twist at the ending

Profile Avatar Anonymous Feb 2026

I really enjoyed this. My only criticism is that it’s more of a lust story than a love story. Otherwise, it has a very unique plot line and twists I didn’t see coming.

Very slow book. Boring, would not recommend.

This was fantastic!!

Profile Avatar Anonymous Sep 2025

the story itself is mostly entertaining, but some of the conversations are very soap-operaish. some of it reads a little too cliche & tries to sound smart, but it comes off poorly, and forced. specifically the professor's conversations with lillia.

Loved the book

Profile Avatar Anonymous Apr 2025

I loved everything about this book! It’s a wonderfully written story, with a steamy dark romance, and the perfect amount of suspense and horror. Everything I’ve heard says it’s a standalone, but I could see so many other books set in this world! Fingers crossed!

Profile Avatar Tracie H. Apr 2025

I LOVED this book! It was definitely a slow-burn, which I’m not normally a fan of, but this story kept me on my toes! I absolutely loved the story and couldn’t stop listening!

Profile Avatar Mindful Morgan Apr 2025

okay so this book has so much potential and I was enthralled for 80 percent of it's contents. the ending, for it being a dark romance, was not macabre enough for me personally and it felt more like a fairytale than a dark romance. maybe I like it darker, who knows. all I can say is I was left feeling unfulfilled with spook and gore where the potential was so clearly there.
