Heat sizzles on the sidewalks. A sultry wind blows along the SoCal coastline, stirring passions, cooling the sun-drenched skin of the beachgoers. Tara Lynne needs to change. Enough is enough.

Revenge can be bloody. Vampires are deadly. A number one best seller in Vampire suspense and mystery suspense!

Magical creatures are the stuff of fantasy. I thought they were unreal...until one of them started stalking me. I'm William Ward. Moving back to Ballynagaul, nothing could have prepared me for meeting evil head on. Does it have anything to do with me falling for a vampire? Can't tell. Does it have something to do with the rift between me, my twin sister, who shares my freakish abilities, and my family and friends? Not sure about that, either. But when something starts stalking me, wrapping its bony fingers around me, I'm suddenly in over my head.

Magic is dark. Evil is mayhem. I’m Siobhan Riordan, and my life is an unending nightmare. I was living a fairy-tale, until I found my husband brutally slain. Ever since then I’ve been raising our three-year-old son on my own and just trying to get by. But I can’t hide any longer. There’s a mysterious plague going around my town, an illness that causes people to go mad just before the end. Even worse, I’m being stalked, though I don’t know by who.

Supernaturals are real. And so are monsters. I’m Paul Riordan, son of Siobhan Riordan, and I will never forget that my father was murdered. Twenty years have passed since terror swept through Ballynagual. But that doesn’t mean that evil is gone for good. There’s a serial killer running loose in town, not to mention I’m in love with a woman I can’t have, and she's in the crosshairs of the murderer. Some people will die to protect their secrets. Others will kill to expose them. Me? No worries. I just have to worry about dealing with the undead.

It's no joke that D'Raynged takes slacking his undead life away wicked seriously. He's a vampire of simple needs. All he wants is warm blood, his roommate's Netflix password, and to be left the hell out of all the supernatural crap that keeps happening to Chia Petit (aforementioned town manager, roommate, and best-friend-that-he-may-or-may-not-be-in-love-with). Household maintenance is definitely not on his to-do list, especially not when it comes to the boiling red energy leak in Chia's bedroom ceiling that is dripping ghosts of all the former shifters and humans killed on her watch.
