As the Snow Gathers - Mere Joyce

The forest doesn't just take what it's owed-it takes whatever it wants. Dominic was born in Aplin Shade, a remote Canadian town built on the bones of another that vanished without a trace. Bookish and quiet, he never asked to lead his family, but after a carriage crash kills his father and leaves his sister forever changed, he has no choice. The only person who truly sees him is Lex, a logger in the camp near town and the love Dominic must keep secret. Together they dream of escaping Aplin Shade, a place where isolation breeds judgment and every kindness hides a cost. But the forest is no refuge. The Fanteur dwell there-shadowed beings who come at night to drain the dead of their blood and return them for burial by dawn. They've never touched the living. Until now. As winter descends and the Fanteur strike back against the logging camp, Dominic and Lex must fight for their lives, their love, and a way out of the woods' tightening grasp. Because the forest doesn't forgive, and it never forgets.
