Killing Vampires? Easy.
Tracking someone? Simple.
Helping, and protecting a Vampire slayer . . . . Bloody hard work!
Thirteen years ago, Brendan Daniels made a deal with a psychic. In exchange for information on the whereabouts of a Rogue Werewolf, he promised to help and protect Sofia's granddaughter. Unfortunately, he had no idea what he was letting himself, or his Pack, in for. Nothing about Heather is simple, from her weird dietary needs to her life’s mission. The girl can handle herself, but the promise to protect her soon becomes a need, and one he can't fully understand.
Vampire Slayer. Born Infected. Addicted to blood . . . but not by choice. Heather Ryan is the current Slayer in a long family line. Like all before her, she has spent her life searching for her ancestor, Marko Pavel, the Vampire her family has sworn to kill. If that isn't complicated enough, she is also a born "Infected", and to keep her from becoming insane or giving in to her darker side, she is on a very strict diet.
Now that her Grandmother Sofia has passed, it is up to Heather to take the family legacy into her own hands. Or at least, it would have been...if her Grandmother hadn't sent a Werewolf to help her. What is the irritating Brendan supposed to help her with? Sofia never told either of them. Luckily, it doesn't take long for Heather and Brendan to find out that the Vampires have big plans, and that the Leeches have waited a long time for them both.
This title contains explicit language, violence, and some scenes of a sexual nature.

When your life is messed up to begin with, how much worse can it really get?Heather Ryan's life has never been simple. The latest in a long line of descendants who have made it their mission to hunt down and slay the Ancient Vampire, Marko Pavel, she is also the first born Infected.
Up until recently, the biggest downside to living with the Vampyrric Virus was simply that she craved blood, but after receiving a DVD from her deceased Grandmother Sofia and being kidnapped with friend and so called guardian Werewolf, Brendan Daniels, she quickly discovers that she is also the inspiration behind the Vampires’ attempt to create a whole new breed of super monsters—Hybrids.
The truth comes at a cost, but how much does one have to sacrifice to gain success?Following the breadcrumbs left by her psychic Grandmother, Heather and Brendan find themselves in new territory. Venice is where Heather hopes to find Marie, the second Bloodling of Marko, along with Brendan's three taken Pack members. But an old Peace Pact between the Italian Pack and the Colony means they are left hunting blind, and due to the Italian Alpha's reluctance to believe their story of kidnap and experimentation on Loup-Garous, time is running out. So when help comes from an unlikely source, they have no choice but to accept.
All families have secrets, but blood can't lie. Caught up in an intricate and complicated scheme spun by the one she trusts the most and the friend of her enemy, Heather soon discovers that she is the pawn in a plan she would never have been able to conceive. But how many of her new allies were in on the game, to begin with?

Genre: Dark Epic Fantasy
BLURB
Some lies are best left buried...
Laoch and Sura are grizzled veterans of the Crusades, thrust into a violent new conflict when a strange enemy crashes into an alchemical experiment, setting off a wave of long-forgotten spiritfire that tears through the realm, spreading fear in its wake.
Seeking the truth behind the magic, a young queen is blocked at every turn by the shadowy machinations of Lord Penance, the Gods' Overseer. And while whispers echo in the Seven Houses of an ancient evil's return, Laoch and the dishonoured elven warrior Sura must face their desperate foe alone.
With the Royal Court paralysed by inaction, they are thrown into a world of soul-magic, Gods' weapons and ancient spirits where nothing is as it seems, and the world they thought they knew unravels to reveal a deadly, long-buried secret.
One even the Gods fear.
A dark fantasy layered with formidable soul-magic, riveting action and twists that turn a world on its head, A Dragon of the Veil is the first book in the Warriors of Spirit and Bone series.
Perfect for readers of Andy Peloquin's Darkblade assassin, the gritty malice of Abercrombie's First Law trilogy, and the dark intricacy of Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion series.

An ancient power granted by a cruel god is manifesting in unsuspecting children across the Kingdom of Septima-and the cult-like Commune will stop at nothing to take any who possess it under their control.
Evelyn Folksman is in hiding. Taken in by a tavern-owner, she is haunted by the horrific events that drove her from her home years before. She is forced to face her past when two wayward children, Raif and Rose Huntsman, arrive at the tavern, pursued by Commune soldiers. The children fall under Evelyn's reluctant care as the trio narrowly escape a raid.
Relentlessly hunted by Commander Jonah Sulemon and Commune agent Lord Eirik Torrant, Evelyn and Raif cannot fathom why they are of such interest to the Commune, until six-year-old Rose unwittingly reveals a terrible secret: she possesses powers more fearsome than any the Commune has unearthed in decades. There are only two options: to be captured and used as pawns, or to trust the mysterious rebels who promise them safety.

In the People's Kingdom, obedience means safety from the horrors of the Beast - a vicious dragon ensnared in magical slumber. But how can Torver obey when his very existence is illegal?
Inexplicably devoid of the magic that blesses everyone else in the Kingdom, Torver can’t get his papers - and will hang for it, if caught. Cornered, Torver lives in the shadow of his only friend, Bassen, whose powerful death magic makes survival a daily struggle.
But when the pair save the life of a genderless fae, a fugitive from across the forbidden border wall who brings a dire warning, their hard-won safety is shattered. Thrust into the midst of an oncoming war that only they can prevent, the unlikely trio must travel the length of the Kingdom to slay the terrible Beast of legend, robbing their invaders of their greatest weapon.
But along the way, as they uncover deadly secrets and shattering truths, Torver is forced to confront not only his growing feelings for their fae defector companion, but also the beasts inside himself.
Because in the People’s Kingdom, obedience is a heavy, deadly thing.
And the price may just be too high.

Demetra once lived a life of peace and serenity on a heavenly planet, untouched by the troubles of the universe. But when she dares to defy the ruling archangel and their oppressive system, she is cast out, stripped of her wings and her magic, and exiled to a forsaken planet—a world teeming with the outcasts of other realms. This desolate land is home to beings of all species and races, each banished for their own acts of defiance or despair.
On this harsh new world, Demetra encounters a fallen angel from her own planet, an exiled demon from another, and a shape-shifter from a long-lost kingdom. Together, they navigate a society built on misdeeds and hopelessness, where every day is a fight for survival. As Demetra grapples with her shattered faith and a life devoid of the powers she once took for granted, she must make a choice: succumb to the darkness around her, or find a new path in this chaotic land.
In this dark fantasy, Demetra's journey is fraught with danger and moral ambiguity. Will she embrace the shadows or find a spark of light within herself?
